Just an idea.

Talk about any music other than Pink Floyd/Solo Stuff

Should we have such a thread where we suggest songs?

Just an idea.

Post by Ridan »

Do you think it's a good idea to start a thread about song suggestion?

Here is what I have in mind. One of the member will suggest a song that she/he likes and why do they like this song. A particular guitar solo, sax, drums on it etc. THe other members talk about the song if they have heard it. If they haven't then they get the song off the net or wherever and give their views on the song. We could have some fixed amount of time for one suggestion. Before that time lapses other suggestions would be ignored or whatever. It could be 2 days or whatever.

The things is I have some songs that I would like others to know about. :mrgreen:

If you think it's a good idea then we could start a single thread for this purpose.

Actually I don't really want to read yet another thread where someone raves about a song they love only to have someone else pipe in and say how much it sucks.....and vice versa.

I think it's a very good idea. I have some songs from eg. Neil Young that are absolutely beautiful, but not much people know about.

If people would actually use it, I think it's a great idea. That's a big if though.

It's not about raving and and critisizing. It's about growing musically, being open to suggestions. We could have some rules you know. I know I am open to suggestions.

I know what you're trying to say and I also know what it often ends up turning into....but good luck with the idea anyway.

It's a great Idea, and as one of posts, said,,


This is about growing musically, and in any type of way...

As I say,

"if you think that the thing you're gonna say is going to cause trouble then just don't say it...

GREAT IDEA!!!!!

I have to agree with Forgotten Son's!! Sound's like it would give people a chance to check out some new music.. And find out about new musicians or old one's that have been ignored musically..

On other topics (like What are you listening to right now) you can also find nice songs or suggestions for bands. But it's a nice idea for a propper thread. And if I don't like a proposed song I'll try to be gentle, cause I also find it hard to cope with if someone burns down my favourite music...

EXCELLENT AVATAR !!!!!!
RIDAN!!! :lol: :wink: :!:


And again replying to "Rosm" :

As Benito Ju?rez said: "El respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz"

Translationto english:

"Respect over other's right's is PEACE" :D

And again as Bob Marley said: ".....CATCH A FIRE...", so if you're mad at someone because he/she burned you're favorite music, just "catch your fire.." You know what I'm talking about!!!! (It's only a suggestion, you own your life, do whatever you want with it..) :wink:

Whoa now you're talking riddles to me. I don't quite understand the "catch your fire" bit.
