Hey, some more church music on a Sunday! I feel like if I'm gonna post one like this it's usually Sunday, but whatever.
This is another fun song to play, which is the only reason I post a lot of these to be honest, though I haven't got to play it in a while. It's kinda fun though.
Honestly, I really don't like this guys voice too much. The guy the sang for us, Caleb Ashton, did a fantastic job. I freaking love his voice. If you aren't familiar with who he is, check out the Oh Holy Night video from December.
Yeah, that really doesn't have too much to do with the song at hand, but it's what I associate this song with.
So after actually thinking about it when I wasn't too tired I managed to find the song I always confuse that P.O.D. song with.
It's not too similar, except for the part where he says boom.
Actually it sounds a lot like Limp Bizkit, which makes sense I suppose since they're both Nu-Metal bands. actually parts of this are a bit like the song Nookie.
You know what's great about Folk Metal? I listen to so little of it I can constantly find new and amazing bands. Granted, a lot of people who are into this stuff already know about these guys, but that's not important.
Here's a challenge, right now. Find me another Metal band that uses a Hurdy Gurdy. Please. I'm not joking, if you find one I'd be really happy.
You've got a killer selection of instruments in this video. Your typical Metal stuff, plus a Violin and the aforementioned Hurdy Gurdy. Please, with all of my blessings, enjoy this video.
This song is basically GnR saying "Hey look, Slash can play stuff!" Slash can play scales like nobodies business, and this song is no exception. The solo, the main hook, it's all stuff that I really freaking love the sound of cause it's just so smooth.
On a side note, this song is one of many songs that I'm adding to my Heroin playlist along with Spoonman by Soundgarden, and half of Alice In Chain's discography.
I have issues hearing words some days, but nothing was ever as bad as trying to understand a co-worker when they said Cage The Elephant.
She played a lot of Alternative music, hence these guys popped up from time to time. I always liked how they sounded though so I asked who it was. Yeah, I never heard her right. At least 5 times she told me and I never heard.
I finally figured it out though, so here's an absolutely wonderful song about disregarding authority.
Well it's been a while since I did a "normal" type blog post. April got taken over by the A to Z, and for May I just kinda did that Reflections post so I've not had a chance to just say things at all.
For those of you not interested in my yaking, the song is down at the bottom.
So in the last few months not too many things have happened. The last 2 weeks though are a different matter.
Firstly, I got promoted! This is something I've been hoping to have happen for about a year now, and it finally happened. I'm a Team Coordinator and it's my job to make sure the kitchen doesn't fall apart while I'm on shift. For the most part my responsibilities are the same as what I have now, but I have actual authority to make people do what I say. On top of that I'm the only kitchen trainer, so this week for example I'm only on shift Monday and Tuesday cause I'm training Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
Secondly, this only happened Saturday afternoon, but I got offered a job at a place I frequent. I have an interview this evening. I'm really excited about this, cause it's a low stress second job that I can pick up that focuses on all things that I love. Music and Video Games.
I mean, that's most of the stuff I have to say, ya know? I've had a weird couple months here and I've honestly been really unhappy with how things have been going, but the last couple weeks I've been working a lot (last week I managed 51 hours and 35 minutes). I really love doing that, and I feel like this second job is the way to get enough money to move into my own place soon.
SONG STUFF HERE
This is a fun song today. It's Boston's song More Than A Feeling, but digitally altered to make it in a minor key. Ladies and Gentleman, I give you Less Than A Feeling.
