nice to know that some people agrees with me for once. most people does not (especially when to comes to music).

if you like my kind of music you might like this song by the Swedish metal band Hardcore Superstar.

Viking -- I listened to it....all four agonized minutes of it. ( I figured I owed that respect to you for posting the link.) Actually, I kind of dug the instrumentals, but I didn't like the screeching...er, I mean singing.
Here is one right back at you. If you listen for two minutes I think you will like it!

I hope the translation of the credit which I provide for you, is true Norwegian.

misquamicut, i started listening to it and ended up listening to the whole thing. Luca was really good and i can imagine if they had a full band playing more instruments along with him that would have been epic.
about the Norwegian translation, did you use google for that?

anyway, if you don't like screaming. maybe this is more of your style.

the song is Norwegian, so it might be hard to understand the actual lyrics. but it's a beautiful song and you don't have to understand the language to enjoy it.

another song, also by Halvdan Sivertsen.

Picked up a classic mustang a few months back , started gathering up all sorts of really good 80s music
Bananarama, Scandal, Nena Men at work well a few days ago while rumaging through the cheap bin at Walmart I struck pure cruising GOLD!
The Cars greatest hits
Back in those days before Britney and Justin Beiber Music was music Hell even the BEACH BOYS still had awesome music to be put out who doesnt like Kocomo

It all depends on your tastes but for some one who was a teenager in the 80s ( go ahead and say it yeah IM OLD ) Having a classic car and listening to that era music back when MTV just played videos Who can forget Tawny Keitain Doing gymnastics on the hood of a Jag ( some of the younger viewers of this site will be thinking OK WHAT THE HELL IS HE TALKING ABOUT ) It does this old kids hearts well to those all who know just whom I speak of.

Was wondering when we would see Da KING on this list hard to believe its been nearly 40 years since he passed but then the same thing could be said about the Duke too . The world was truly a sadder place when those two left this earth.

As much as we all still love the King, his death overshadowed that of another great icon just three days later.
Here's a clue: Kings and Dukes have their place, but I am a Marxist.

Oh, don't be such a Groucho!!!! :D
More importantly to me personally was that my grandmother, who was herself coincidentally a major Elvis fan, also died within the same week that Elvis did.
