Found this live version on itunes and have been wearing it out. I'm not sure if Kim posted this 20 pages back or so, but its beautiful:

That song was released a few years ago...they've released another album since then.

Anyone catch the VH1 tribute tonight? I'm watching it for the second time. Foo Fighters and Pearl Jam among the bands covering Who Songs tonight. As well as a group I've never heard of that did a lot of Tommy called Flaming Lips.

Ace of Base

Post by _Dr. Shades »

Here are some of the best songs--not to be confused with merely the most popular songs--from Ace of Base, a Swedish group that hit it big in the early- to mid-90s. I selected ones that (with one exception) weren't played on the radio to my knowledge. Enjoy:

  • Da Capo Here the band truly earns its name.
  • Dancer in a Daydream There isn't a video associated with this song--you'll only see a still shot--since someone merely uploaded it from the album "The Sign." This brings back lots of memories for me, since I was playing it pretty heavily about the time that my wife and I started seeing each other exclusively.
  • Hear Me Calling REALLY GOOD! This video features a bunch of still photos of the band members in various locations around the world. One setting that stood out for me was them in and around "Kinkakuji," a Buddhist temple in Japan overlaid with pure gold, believe it or not.
  • I'm Never Gonna Say I'm Sorry REALLY GOOD! Here the band once again earns its name. (As an aside, normally I'm attracted exclusively to brunette women--in particular, Jewish women of Eastern European extraction are my Achilles heel and my kryptonite--but I'm definitely making an exception for Malin Berggren, the blonde woman [and 1/4 of the group] in this video. Holy cow, she's an angel. No, not just an angel, but nothing less than the Goddess Aphrodite made manifest in the flesh! Hell, sometimes I watch this video not for the music--much as I like it anyway--but just to get a look at her.)
  • It's a Beautiful Life Unlike the other songs on this list, this one got some airplay. It's the best one that receieved airplay, though, in my opinion. The fact that it has a really cool video associated with it is what clinched my decision to include it in this list.
  • Love for Sale REALLY GOOD! As you can probably guess from the title, this is a song about prostitution, of all things. This is a steep departure from their usual style, mixing hard rock elements with hypnotic backing vocals.
  • Waiting for Magic This one doesn't have an associated video, so someone overlaid it on a montage of clips from the T.V. show "Roswell," which I've never seen. Like the aforelinked "Dancer in a Daydream," this one brings back lots of memories from when my wife & I got together.
  • Young and Proud This time someone overlaid it on a shifting background of anime images. Ignore those. This is another one that brings back lots of memories from the Summer of 1994.
"Finally, for your rather strange idea that miracles are somehow linked to the amount of gay sexual gratification that is taking place would require that primitive Christianity was launched by gay sex, would it not?"

Jersey Girl Trivia: I saw the Who in concert when they were the opening act for the Rolling Stones.

Thanks, Gaz!
