Have heard only one song (Layla) of Eric Clapton's and liked it too. Derek and the Dominos was his past band ?
He has been in a few bands including Cream, Yardbirds and Derek And The Dominos...Quote:

He is right up there in the league of Jimmi Hendrix as a guitar virtuoso. Clapton is "Hendrix-meets-BB King-meets-Bob Marley" and more........
My personal Fav's:
24 Nights - Live in Royal Albert Hall [Album]
Badge
I shot The Sherif [Bob Marley Original]
Cocaine [JJ Cale original]
After Midnight [JJ Cale Original]
Sunshine Of Your Love
White Room
Old Love
Layla [NOT the unplugged version]
Blues Power
Wonderful Tonight
Rollin' And Tumblin'
Tears In Heaven
Signe
Eric Clapton MTV Unplugged [Album]
.....
John Petrucci is another great guitar player. He is definitely in my top 5 guitar players.
How about Chennai's very own band Moksha?
Surya, have you listened to "I stand alone" by Godskack? Thats even better :thumbsup:Quote:

'Chasing Cars'....Snow Patrol
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
:thumbsup:...:musicsmile:...

K... here goes my current favourite. I dunno wether it is the beatiful singing or the strong lyrics or the gentle music thats captivating me... but to me, it is one of the best songs ever written.
My immortal - Evanescence
I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
Strongly recommended :thumbsup:
TV, i was addicted to this song a year or two ago...i bought the Evanescence Album after hearing this song...:musicsmile:..one of my fav songs of all time, actually...:)...Quote:

great choice :)
Sinthiya, actually I started listening to this song only recently... before this my favs of Evanescence were "Going under" and "Bring me back to life". But this song is my current fav... I love the lyrics especially.
PS: Amy's voice is perfect as always :D

Thinkfloyd... :thumbsup: . Now i'll look for the other versions too :D
all these years i have beent thinking that "turn the page" is metallica's original song. quite naturally, it was among my favs from them. But just recently I came to know that it is actually a cover of the original song by Bob Seger. Even before i felt that the lyrics were unusually too heavy and poetic for a metallica song. The original version is also a cool one. Metallica made subtle changes to the lyrics and ofcourse, hetfield rendered it with his own accent :thumbsup: .
The original version was about the life of a rock star. But metallica's video is about the life of a stripper who works to raise her child. The lyrics fits just perfectly into this theme. While Bob seger's song was more like a ballad, with gentle guitar strumming and drums, metallica's version is a lot more heavier.
Bob seger's song starts with a cool sax . Thats replaced with an awesome slide guitar by hammet. It just fits in perfectly, if not, amplifying the mood of the song. This song, seems like, is made to be covered by metallica... just too good :thumbsup: ... screaming guitar solos, powerful, expressive singing by Hetfield.... :clap:
On a long and lonesome highway east of omaha
You can listen to the engines moaning out as one note song
You think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
When youre riding sixteen hours and theres nothing much to do
And you dont feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through
Here I am - on the road again
There I am - up on the stage
Here I go - playing star again
There I go - turn the page
So you walk into this restaurant strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you, as youre shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesnt bother you, but you just want to explode
Yeah, most times you cant hear em talk, other times you can
All the same old clichs, is it woman? is it man?
And you always seem outnumbered, you dont dare make a stand
Make your stand
Here I am - on the road again
There I am - up on the stage
Here I go - playing star again
There I go - turn the page
Oo-ooh, out there in the spotlight, youre a million miles away
Every ounce of energy you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play, yeah
Later in the evening, you lie awake in bed
With the echoes of the amplifiers ringing in your head
You smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what she said
What she said
He-ey
Yeah
And here I am - on the road again
There I am - up on a stage
Here I go - playing star again
There I go - turn the page
"Iron man" by black sabbath... awesome guitar riff :musicsmile:

Lil Chris - ch ch ch chekin it out! wooo ooooo
Beyonce - Ringe the alarm! :!:

LYRCS -
You only seal what your eyes want to see
how can I feel what you wanted to be
You're frozen
when your heart's not open
You're soaken still with how much you get
you waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken
when your heart's not open
If I could melt your heart
we'd never be apart
Yield yourself to me
you are the key
Now there's no point in placing a blame
and you should know I suffer the same
If I lose you, my heart will be broken
Love is a bird, she needs to fly
let other hurt inside of you die
You're frozen, when your heart's not open
If I could melt your heart
we'd never be apart
Yield yourself to me
you are the key
You only seal what your eyes want to see
how can I feel what you wanted to be
You're frozen
when your heart's not open
If I could melt your heart
we'd never be apart
Yield yourself to me
you are the key
(If I could...)
Without You Here.....:musicsmile:...:musicsmile:....- Goo Goo Dolls
Your love's a gathered storm I chased across the sky
A moment in your arms became the reason why
And you're still the only light that fills the emptiness
The only one I need until my dying breath
And I would give you everything just to
Feel your open arms
And I'm not sure I believe anything I feel
And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
And I'm trying to believe
In things that I don't know
The turning of the world
The color of your soul
That love could kill the pain
Truth is never vain
It turns strangers into lovers
And enemies to brothers
Just say you understand
I never had this planned
And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
Without you here
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
My head lies to my heart
And my heart it still believes
It seems the ones who love us are the ones
That we deceive
But you're changing everything
You're changing everything in me
And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
BLUE-One Love
It's kinda funny how life can change
Can flip 180 in a matter of days
Sometimes love works in mysterious ways
One day you wake up gone without a trace
[bridge]
I refuse to give up
I refuse to give in
You're my everything
I don't wanna give up
I don't wanna give in, oh no
Everybody sings
[chorus]
One love - for the mother's pride
One love - for the times we cried
One love - gotta stay alive
I will survive
One love - for the city streets
One love - for the hip-hop beats
One love, Oh I do believe
One love is all we need
Late at night I'm still wide awake
Think this is far more than I can take
I thought my heart could never break
Now I know that's one big mistake
[bridge]
[chorus]
Baby, just love me love me love me
Baby, just hold me hold me hold me
Oh, love me love me love me, Oooh
[chorus]
ANNIE'S SONG (John Denver)
You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again
Come let me love you
Let me give my love to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again
Let me give my love to you
Come let me love you
Come love me again
You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest ....

Sweet little song. Listen to "leaving on a jet plane" by john denver if possible. It is also good ( I was crazy abt thsi song once :D ).
There are other gud songs from him too...
Sunshine on my shoulders
Take me home country roads.
Such straight from heart songs and lyrics are so rare to find these days :( .
Uncovered another cover song :boo: :fishgrin:
This time I've come to know abt a great band, again thanks to metallica. The song is "Tuesday's gone" which is agonisingly slow for a metallica song. Turns out that it was originally done by Lynyrd skynyrd. And wat a band it is... :notworthy: Any rock fan shud listen to them atleast once!
Well, I have got lots of songs to recommend from Lynyrd skynyrd, but this one is really easy on ears. If you liked songs like Rubaroo and Yun hi chala, you wud definitely love this. It is called "Sweet home alabama" by Lynyrd skynyrd. Supposed to be their greatest hit, and a great song too :thumbsup:
ya TV, all these are wonderful numbers :D. thnx will listen to "leaving on a jet plane" when possbl :)Quote:

yea thinkfloyd, yesterday I was discussing abt this only with my friend. Too bad, such things never happen in chennai :cry2: . Going to mumbai for a concert is too farfetched for me... I regretted a lot for the fact that deep purple went to b'lore... so mumbai is just outta question :fishgrin:
"Free Bird" by Lynyrd Skynyrd.... An epic song!!! :notworthy: Certainly among the greatest songs ever, with its extra long triple guitar solo. The song is 9 minutes long and the guitar portion alone runs for arnd 5 mins.
Rocketboy, you will love this! :thumbsup:
"NIGHTS IN WHITE SATIN" (by MOODY BLUES ) - melancholy music & lyrics !
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9muzyOd4Lh8
Nights in white satin, never reaching the end
Letters I've written, never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed, with these eyes before
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore
'Cause I love you, yes I love you, oh, how I love you
Gazing at people, some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through they can't understand
Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be, you will be in the end
And I love you, yes I love you
Oh, how I love you, oh, how I love you
Nights in white satin, never reaching the end
Letters I've written, never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed, with these eyes before
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore
'Cause I love you, yes I love you
Oh, how I love you, oh, how I love you
'Cause I love you, yes I love you
Oh, how I love you, oh, how I love you
(spoken, not sung) :
Breathe deep in the gathering gloom
Watch lights fade from every room
Bedsitter people look back and lament
Another day's useless energy's spent
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one
Lonely man cries for love and has none
New mother picks up and suckles her sun
Senior citizens wish they were young
Cold-hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colors from our sight
Red is grey and yellow white
And we decide which is right
And which is an illusion?
