Motown_M_1056 if you don't like telling other people to like what you like, you should also not be telling other people to not like what you don't like.
abfan this is a nice performance, and a great band that backs her up. I appreciate that you share your favorite of Anita.
I don't really have a favorite artists so i go with my present feeling. I feel like Angela Winbush today and this is one of my favorite duets. Hope you'll like it.

It's nice to find out that others might like the same music or artist that you do, but I don't dictate or recommend that others like what I like, because it's a personal thing to me, period. I don't listen to music with other people. No two people are going to have the same emotional reaction to the same music or singer. I listen to music by myself and I buy what I like. That's perfectly logical to me. I realize that everybody is not me and I'm not like everybody else.
Everything is cool Motown_M_1056.
Lot's of threads are based on the intention to share musical taste and other information.
I personally learned a lot from reading some threads where SD members shared personal favorites.
We have some very tasteful members here, with great musical taste and knowledge.
But if someone don't like to listen to music with others, then he's probably in the wrong thread.
Motown_M_1056 dear you may be on the wrong thread.You dont seem to be into anything... [[sharing listening viewing). No where does it say lead or pursaude members to like anything...I've been here for years and I dont think I have changed anyone's mind on Anita...geesh....very simple
The way technology and electronics are designed today...music playing equipment is designed to make music listening a personal experience. You have your own Ipod, your own headset, etc. to listen to what you want to. I don't listen to music with others. And, yes, I might get suggestions or learn about some artist or music from others, but I still make up my own mind whether Ii like something or not. I can't share my favorites with others because they might not like what I like. Listening to music, reading a book, watching a film are things I enjoy personally. I don't think everyone has to like what I like nor do need to provide sound clips or videos of what I like. It's that simple.Quote:

I don't like linking youtube vids because I don't experience music visually.

I totally understand where you are coming from. I never said people should not have favorites, I said it was hard for ME to list my own because I like so many different things, genres of music and artists and everyone does not like or should like what I like.
I understand your point about YouTube links too. I don't like using links because some contain viruses and might harm someone else's computer.
Kind of like The jukebox..just sharing good music I might otherwise overlook...also you dont have to link a youtube video ...you can just suggest a song.Anyway to those that want to enjoy here's another 1

You only listen to music by yourself? You never even go out to hear live music?Quote:

Hey blueskies I always liked Angel... that was the 1st AB song that got me hooked
Another classic.History in the making....The king and Queen

Oh yes, me too! When I first heard "Angel" I fell in love with Anita. No one out there sounded like Anita. She put her stamp on that song for me. NO ONE could sing "Angel" like Anita!Quote:

There's nobody Ii want to see in person that badly anymore.
I can understand concert overdose, it happens to me and it's time for a break. But fwiw, you should seek out new music, new artists, or try out some other genres and not just listen to music of the past.Quote:

One piece of music I use as a warm up track when Im djing is by an Australian band called Icehouse the song is called "Great Southern Land"..I only mention it because people come up to me when Im playing and ask what it is..its 80s atmospheric synth at its best....
Look at Anita showing out! She is something else. Thanks Abfan.
Abfan, I think this is a good thread. I can't count how many good songs I've discovered by looking at someone else's likes and reccommendations. This is one I've always loved... and the video is wicked cool, too:Quote:

I got to say, that impromptu Antia performance was impressive and damn lovely. As far as soul ballads go, this is definately in my top 5... I don't know whatever happened to this group, but this is so beautiful it brings a tear to your eye:
