Hello Ferdan (and everyone else, of course). My favourite at this time (I mean, not all times favourite, but actual song) is Buried alive by love, HIM. Give it a try, guys, it’s great.

@on_a_mission: good taste
I got the Yeah Yeah Yeahs album (and some others) two days ago. still have to review it, but I think I’ll write something nice about it ;)
to your list I’d add:
ARE Weapons - the whole album actually, if I have to pick a song it would be the single ’hey world’
Gonzales - Z (again the whole album)
Echoboy - Automatic Eyes
and many more I can’t think of now

@stupid girl, yeah yeah yeahs are gonna be a 5 minute fad I think!

@on_a_mission: you’re probably right. their music isn’t new and special enough to last forever. but they’ll be fun for those five minutes

“Mañana” by Mikel Erentxun... no doubt about it. I know it’s Spanish, but it’s the best!

Really?? I love Michelle Branch, and her new song, “Are You Happy Now??” is like Roxette?? Wow, I heard it was like louder powerpop mixed with Alanis!!

Best non-rox song now is clearly “Real Live Bleeding Fingers And Broken Guitar Strings” by masterful singer/songwriter Lucinda Williams!!

I Mother Earth - Like The Sun

Don’t Dream It’s Over - Sixpence None the richer!!! hey, Nate. I LOVE that too!
nate said on June 4, 2003 05:45:
What can I say Majdy - you have great taste :) The CD “Divine Dicontent” is also quite good.
Majdy said on June 4, 2003 06:13:
So do you :) But basically I like Sixpence none the richer. they are great! ’kiss me” is still one of my fav song! (the video is great too)
powerpoplarry said on June 4, 2003 06:30:
Good cover of that song by Sixpence, but Crowded House’s original is still the best one. I like Sixpence as well, sort of a powerpop band. I have a song of their’s on a Jeff Lynne/ELO tribute CD, where they cover “On The Run”. I’m sorry, but ANY band that has the sense to cover ELO/Jeff Lynne and is influenced by him IS a powerpop band, bar none!! No questions or exceptions either. ;-) Same with a Neil Finn song.
For me, right now, the best non-rox song, at least the non-Rox song going through my head now is “Living In America” by the Sounds!!

’Fighter’ by Christina Agluira
Haven’t heard the new Michelle Branch yet, but I’m sure it’s great, I loved ’the Spirit Room’, one of my fav albums! Can’t wait to hear the new stuff!!
powerpoplarry said on June 4, 2003 07:00:
Sorry, but “Fighter” by Xtina is just eh with me, utter commercial corporate crap. I heard the new Michelle Branch is amped-up, harder-edged, almost Alanis-ish, but with a powerpop chorus sorta like Roxette!!
clerk said on June 4, 2003 14:15:
Well, that’s just your opinion, isn’t it...
Many people believe Roxette is commercial crap aswell...but I don’t care..
wendy said on June 4, 2003 14:34:
I like Christina,and,yes,”Fighter” is one of the best songs of the moment,together with the Flemish band “Lemon” and their song “Stay with me”
They’re so great :)
powerpoplarry said on June 5, 2003 03:56:
Yes Clerk, just my opinion, sorry...and no Wen (how’s it going??), I haven’t heard Lemon yet, but they sound interesting...I hate the US music scene, we get no cool international bands like Lemon!! I DO know that Danish group Junior/Senior is getting a shot here in the States...anybody here a fan?? I haven’t heard them yet...
