Sir Myshkin Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Sees link, knows it's going to link to "Thunder Struck" but clicks anyway. Gets lost in a Youtube void for 20 35 38 minutes resulting in the re-discovery of Irish Bagpipers who cover Rock songs. Obscurity is more like starting with a classic song from AC/DC, and ending up on something massively disconnected like this, and that's not even where the rabbit hole ended. 3 Pylon Test Run Submission Proc Monsters (Controller Edition) Proc Monsters (Defender Edition) Pylon Test Run Results Proc Monsters (Tanker Edition) "Mad King Special" "Ceterum autem censeo Iram esse delendam" Mad King Special - Force Edition (NEW!)

I would imagine to anyone not alive the last time AC/DC had a single on the charts it could be seen that way. (Does a quick internet search to see when that might have been.) WTF?!? 2015?!? I dind't even know they were still alive. (people were doing a LOT of drugs in the 70s) The last song I remember hearing from them on the radio was Money Talks. And it being on the radio should give a hint to how long ago it was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Def Leppard responded by noting, "Geez, our drummer lost an arm, and we kept him in the band!" Last I heard, though, the band was back in the studio, with Johnson. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's no "Thunderstruck." 😄 In case people think I hate techno based music, uh no.

A good chuck of the songs on my workout mix on Youtube are techno based, but you know, good. As somebody who is a trained musician and prefers complex, melodic music like prog and metal, it's a nightmare for me at work when it's a coworker's turn to choose the music and he insists on late-90s techno/dance music. You know, the stuff with a kick drum that goes THUMP-THUMP-THUMP-THUMP without variation, synths repeating the exact same riff over and over, and a female singer repeating the same four-word phrase over and over and over. It's music that's meant for dancing, and it's perfect for that. It's not designed for listening outside of that context. Unfortunately, as a trained musician and lifelong music fan, it's literally impossible for me to "tune out" music. My ears detect even the faintest music and my brain wants to focus on it, and when it's utterly mindless and repetitive it drives me insane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generator Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 The reference to Thunderstuck as an obscure song is reminding me of MCU's Spider-Man, where everything is a "really old movie." (To be sure, most of them are pretty old by now but I feel like that's done specifically to rub it in Tony's face.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
