Favorite Music: Brand-New Band, Same Old Name

[Queen Susan]

Hehe, I've always enjoyed listening to "Sadie Hawkins Dance" too. And I had never heard of it before either.

Anyway. Currently I'm in the mood for CCM Chritmas music--Right now I'm listening to "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" by Jars of Clay. Oh dear--Christmas Music already? I don't know about this year, but last year I have a friend who would've killed me for listening to Christmas music before Thanksgiving.

Wow I haven't been on here in a while. Lately I've been listening to RK (suprise suprise! ), Owl City, and TMac's new single. I bought RK's Mood Rings, I So Hate COnsequences, and Which to Bury; Us or the Hatchet? off of iTunes. I also got Owl City's Fireflies and Vanilla Twlight. Fireflies and Which to Bury; Us or the Hatchet are already on the most played list on the iPod and I just bought them yesterday! I'm seriously like addicted to them!

Me and my friend are slightly *cough* obsessed with Matt...

haha me too- the reason why penguins are now my favorite animal .

Sadie Hawkins is cute and funny but I have to admit, I'm glad RK has matured...

Oh and I got the TAN CD at the MWS concert this past Sunday- it was on sale for only $5 if you bought one of the performers CD. I haven't really been able to listen to it yet but I hope to soon! Speaking of the concert, it was amazing. MWS has such great songs that really make you feel closer to God- I could feel the Holy Spirit there. MWS is really nice too, and humble. He talked to us alot and complimented us alot. He told us we were the best choir he had had so far, and he meant it too, or so his manager said. So cool.

*comes into the thread listening to "Open Wounds" by Skillet.*

I had "Fireflies" stuck in my head for the past 24 hours at least. I think it's out now.

Yeah, most recently I've been listening to Owl City and RelientK... Kutless and Sanctus Real somewhat, but not really as much...
And, uh, yeah... Christmas Music.

[Djaq]

I'm back!

Great to see you in here, Djaq! Look up Fuzzy Blue Lights, it's a cool song.
I'm listening to Redcast's new EP on their myspace right now! I love the piano in their songs!

Thanks! Ooh, I did and...I love it!! The piano is gorgeous!
Unfortunately, they don't have all of the songs from their new EP on their myspace yet. They don't have "Quarter Past" and "Second Second Chance".
Yes, Seth is very good, isn't he?! There's a new video on their YouTube of him playing the piano in the mall, it's pretty awesome!

Christmas music is good all year 'round! It is for me at least.
For the past four years, my siblings and I have made my dad an "Ultimate Christmas Album" of his (and our) favorite Christmas songs! (we give it to him on his birthday in October ) It's become a tradition.

OK so I just ordered the Jon Foreman EP's. though I didn't get them from the sight I originally intended to. Decided to check a second store and it was $5 cheaper, with tax and shipping already included.

Now which EP should I listen to first?


and I bought Hillsong's Mighty to Save CD.
I'd searched for it in every christian store by my house but never found it.
I walked in to FYE to see if they had Jon Foreman, which they didn't, but I came across Hillsong for $10.

[Glenstorm the Great]

I just got the B. Reith EP off of Amazon for free. And oone of BarlowGirl's new songs to. The only reason I got the EP was because B. Reith is on that Winter Wonderslam Tour with Relient K and TMac, plus some girl whose name I can't remember...anyway, does anyone know if his stuff's good? I haven't listened to it yet...

[The Pendragon]

They didn't have them at my store either! But I buy everything online, and didn't listen to them in an specific order. I think the order starts with Fall. I'm not sure which song goes in what album though. Woot for Hillsong!

EDIT: Yeah! B. Reith is awesome! I got his EP the Forecast or something, and it's really good. My favorite is Go On, which is a funny song about how everyone always forgets his name! lol! Rain Down, Mess and Awe- Struck are my favorites. He just came out with a new album, but I haven't heard it yet. He has a beautiful voice by the way! he's also very talented, but i like his chorus better than the verses. I wish he didn't rap! But he's still cool! That tour is comming to my town, and I hope I can go!

[Queen Susan]

...anyway, does anyone know if his stuff's good? I haven't listened to it yet...

You're wondering if... B. Reith's stuff is good? Or... who? Not quite sure if you mean Reith or tobyMac...

[Glenstorm the Great]

I mean B. Reith. I know TMac's stuff is good, lol .

[The Pendragon]

Question for Relient K fanatics!!! Do they have a podcast or film themselves or anything like Tenth Ave does? I know that a lot of bands do that but I'm not sure about RK. Or do they just have interveiws and such?

[Glenstorm the Great]

Relient K does a podcast but there last one was in July. But I watch them all anyways, they're hilarious!

[MissAravis]

Yup, as gtg said they have video podcasts, and you can get them on iTunes. It was weird because when I downloaded F&NSD on iTunes it came w/ the podcasts too. It's like, I've already seen these, and you make it look like I'm getting some extra little bonus by downloading the album on itunes?

Djaq: Yeah, he's great! I'll have to check that out! Sounds fun! And this is random, but they don't really look a whole lot like brothers. The 3 of them look pretty different.

[The Pendragon]

That's a bummer. I'm watching the first one. I love watching bands when they go on tour, cuz they get to do a bunch of cool stuff, or just be goofy! If they're cool like 10th ave and SF!

[MissAravis]

Haha, yeah they are always so funny! The latest webisodes that RK did (except for the "cubin' with Schneck" one) were the ones when they were in the studio producing F&NSD. I absolutely love the part with the squirrel in one of them... I also like when Matt bats the orange or whatever... sooo random

Any other Flyleaf fans? Their new album is streaming on thier Myspace right now, if anyone's interested.

I'm not big on Flyleaf over all but I do LOVE All Around Me,
I like several other songs of that same Cd but no other thrills me nearly the same amount.

I did get Again of their new Cd and I like it alot,
too soon to rank it like All Around Me but definitely a great song.
