My Musical Rant

We shall drive a bullet into the forehead
Of the rotten fascist filth,
We shall build a solid coffin
For the scum of humanity!

This is why they won the war.  Best leave them Russians alone.

Another text along these lines is the oath shown from 11:20 to 12:20 in this video of Frank Capra’s Why We Fight: The Battle of Russia - Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKgciQ0FRNY.  I’m not sure if that particular bit of footage (which looks rather staged) originated in either Russia or Hollywood, but my understanding is that The Battle of Russia was presented in Russia during the war and was very favourably received.

Yes we all have our own tastes , but how about Irish drinking music thats always festive

Ah… what the hell! Sure!

Emperor Taiki what you like seems to be darker so if you want to listen to a Christian band like that there is a band call Red that you might like.

Just based on my knowledge of music, math and physics, I’d say that your speed would have to be pretty close to the speed the grooves were designed for in order for the music to play in a recognizable format.  Too fast and you’d miss notes (tires skipping over grooves) and have deformed notes (too many vibrations traveling too close together.)  Too slow and you might not generate a fast enough wave to carry the melody either.

The article does mention the roads were designed for 55 mph.  That leads me to believe there is a finite range of speeds that the road would function for.

As for tiring of the music, one would think it would be something you would not drive over on a daily basis.  Dunno.  That’s why I mentioned it would really suck to live by the street built like that and you’d probably want to put it in a touristy place like near a boardwalk, pier or famous gathering place where merchants can fleece the tourists.

@cyan:

does any even like Crank That by Soulja Boy??? that song is horrible.

Never heard of them… but If they are hossible than I am lucky to have avoided any contact!

I dont like it but everyone in my high school does. I think they call it secondary school in most places but we call it high school.

@cystic:

ok - i’m out.

Out of what?

this discussion.

Tchaikovsky (1810 ouverture), Wagner or Dvorak

@cystic:

acckkkkk
Berlioz? Debussy? Chopin (half Polish, half French) The only good things to come out of the Romantic movement (aside from certain nationalist composers)? (well, Verdi if you like opera . . . )
and you missed Rachmaninoff, Rimsky-Korsakov, the Mighy Five etc.

I like the french very much, but i am clearly not a big fans of their music. Maybe sometime Ravel, but certainly not Debussy, not that french music is crap, i have 1 cd of Debussy, but i never feel to listen to it.

Sure i missed a lots, Glinka, Borodin, Beethoven, Bach, Pachelbel, Schubert…
