And so the Gospel Of Luke stated the Music Stuff page was brought into creation, and it was good...

This page will be dedicated to nothing but the topic of music. Having stated this, it would be worthwhile to note that I am not really a fan of all music, so don't expect to find the lyrics to the latest Jessica Simpson album or anything...

......you may find some stuff on her sister Ashlee though,'cause she happens to be super hot.....but probably not.....

You will however, find stuff to do with bands such as Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, the Smashing Pumpkins, Green Day, Everclear and a host of others.

A word to those interested however, that while I will attempt to provide short biographies on each band I include, I am not one to get hung up on the intricacies of bands histories. I am more interested in the music they created, not the quantity of drugs consumed by each member and so forth. So don't get upset if the biographies aren't exactly a day by day account of the bands lives...........(I've found many fans of particular bands to be crazed neanderthals, who will try to beat your head with the closest club-like instrument if you don't know the birth dates of every band member of a particular band, or the number of nose hairs in their left nostrils, etc)

And so to end my rambling, I proclaim the following - "Explore this page, and my site, and be happy! Also, think of something you assume I wouldn't do, and then do it twice, to make up for my shortcomings."

Wallpapers

Well, here are three Soundgarden wallpapers I made, due to the fact I didn't like any I found on the Net. They are basically just pics with black padding, apart from the first one, which is a collage of pictures. All are for 1024 x 768 resolution.

Fave Songs - Top Ten List

The following is a list of my ten favourite songs. While in the past this list has changed on numerous occasions with songs being dropped and added several times, the list as it appears now has been consistent for at least 6 months. I cannot seeing it changing at any point in the foreseeable future either. The list is numbered, but the songs are not in any order of preference. The titles have also been linked to a copy of the songs lyrics.
UPDATE: I may make a list of my Top 100 songs at some point in the future as well.

  1. Otis Redding - (Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay
  2. Green Day - When I Come Around
  3. The Smashing Pumpkins - Here Is No Why
  4. Archers Of Loaf - Web In Front
  5. Faith No More - Easy [Lionel Richie Cover]
  6. Blackalicious - Make You Feel That Way
  7. Frenzal Rhomb - The Ballad Of Tim Webster
  8. Everclear - Santa Monica
  9. Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun
  10. Pearl Jam - Alive

Fave Songs Pt. 2 - Top 101 List

This list represents the 101 songs, not which I consider the best in technical terms, but which I have found to most enjoy listening to. In short, if I had to pick only 100 songs to listen to for the rest of my life, these would be those songs. In making the list, I employed the rule that I could not include more than two songs by any single band or artist.
UPDATE: Thinking back on it, there were some songs which I had to change, and have now done so.
UPDATE: I forgot two songs by The Verve, so I've added them, and deleted 'Hallelujah' by Jeff Buckley. It is a great song, but I like 'Lucky Man' by The Verve better. The list has consequently changed to a Top 101 instead of Top 100. It also means I've been able to stick to my two songs per artist rule.
