Wat a vioce the man has... and for his playing! AMAZING... I'm a drummer.. And Travis Barker is my idol... But Nick Was so inspiring to watch! Made me pik up guitar! DEFO

Gotta be the excellent Reuben for me. track probably "return of the jedi" check it.
Reuben's "Return Of The Jedi"? How many nano-seconds did they work on that title? Is that the one that uses music from the Star Wars film soundtracks which were composed and conducted by John Williams? If it is then I have heard and it's not too bad but ZERO points if it's the one I'm thinking of because A; It is mixed with another far more talented composers work and B; the title is flagrantly ripped off from some little known movie of the early 1980s!
Overall I find it a little bit of a problem centering on one song or album for the year as I hear so much music through my work. To put a tail on the donkey is next to impossible but I think I could pin it on the above in terms of what isn't going to be a notable point in the year, decades' or history of music. It's good but doesn't have what it takes and what it takes cannot be determined until it suddenly happens. You cannot manufacture a classic!
Singles
The Mystery Jets - You can't fool me Dennis
The Cribs - You're gonna lose us
Albums
Bright Eyes - I'm wide awake its morning (if it was this year)

God no! its actually a song about record companies and how they suck. you obviously have never heard Reuben, and plus wots a title got to do with it? how many bands out there have the same song titles? too many!Originally Posted by Uppiebalad
"return of the jedi" is a quirky title, if you seen it on the back of an album its gonna stick in your head. so i ask again, check it.
im more into pop punk and stuff so single would be... hero-foo fighters, and album new found glory-catalyst...but thats a bity lame but hey ho, i dont care
its My Hero FOOL!
I see, but using such a well known title is clearly the method to get people to listen to it. hmm!
Song - System of a Down - BYOB
Album - Bullet For My Valentine - The Poison
well you could say that but i dont think so. they arent exactly well known.Originally Posted by Uppiebalad
they also have a song called "Freddy Kreuger" on a different album.
i see it as more of a homage to the things they like.
Trying to tie down one song or album is gonna be difficult.
I don't think I can actually do it!
I'll have a think on it.
And Uppie, christ sake, its a song name. Give it a rest will you?
So one can see clearly where their influences lie!Originally Posted by loganbiffy
and Jeid, it's only an opinion- stay calm!
ok, im extremely sorry. MY HERO but when i downloaded it, it just said hero, but moi mistaken
I am calm, but you seem to be picking on everyone's comments. Even song names... who cares? Its a song title. Bands have been paying homage to things they like in life since the begining of music.Originally Posted by Uppiebalad
You can just feel the love in this thread!
I am calm also and love big time. You may feel a little over sensative when I make my comments but actually I asked about the Return Of The Jedi thing because I had recently heard a peice that was a mix of original score and new dancey stuff which sounded intereting. Many of you seem rather prickly in here. perhaps the padding is coming off the walls. Relax people, stop being so up tight. So a bloke expresses a liking for a thing and some other bloke doesn't share it. That's reality more than anything. If I want to express something of a title, so be it whether anyone cares or not. As they say in television- don't like, change channel!
Best album? Eels' "Blinking Lights And Other Revelations"
Best single this year has to be: Franz Ferdinand's "Do You Want To"
Hit damn man, that was tough, just trying to figure out what was actually released in 2005 was hard enough, been so much music for the past half decade that i've just got into this year. If it we're what album i've heard in the last regarless of ages?
Without a doubt, Modest Mouses "Good News For People Who Love Bad News"
Fin.
hmm album pobably steve vai's real illusions:reflections album my god the guitar work in that is genious
and i guess track of the year is probably lotus feet perfomed with with the metreple orkest its and amazing piece with an outstanding climax.
i dont think ive actually bought any other albums released this year kinda sad i guess ah well
