That name sounds familiar

@ILoveMyoozik  
I bring them up because their vocalist past away at age 28.

@Holofan4life  
Oh, how tragic

@Holofan4life  
I vaguely remember their name back when I was into metalcore in middle school. Never really listened to any of their stuff though.
 
Shame about their singer regardless.

I decided to dig up a song I composed before I knew anything about music theory. I’ve determined that it’s in Phrygian. After experimenting with Phrygian, the iv chord somehow feels more at rest that the i chord.

I’ve begun writing a piece for Starlight. Scoring is hard.

It’s bizarre to think that “Viva La Vida” a song released ten years ago, is now being considered a classic. Lumping it in with other songs from that year is “American Boy” by Estelle, “Low” by Flo Rida, “Paper Planes” by M.I.A., “I Kissed A Girl” by Katy Perry and “Closer” by Ne-Yo.

jimmy urine of mindless self indulgence is making a new solo album and i could not be more excited. msi is my favorite band and grimes is collabing on a song.

@ILoveMyoozik  
american boy totally deserves classic status in my eyes

@mav  
Totally. It’s such a good song and it’s a damn shame that Estelle is a one hit wonder. She’s having it better as Garnet’s voice actress from “Steven Universe” though.

Well, crap. The newest Muse song is actually good. I wasn’t expecting this.
 
Though I’m not entirely sure about how Muse seems to be releasing a good majority of the tracks before the album is even out. What’s the point of buying the album afterward if they do that?

Tomorrow is Hatsune Miku’s birthday. She turns 11 years old.

@Holofan4life  
Funny, she looks way older. :P

Actually, hold on. Is this really Muse’s newest album cover?  

@TheHappySpaceman  
You can’t get any more retro than this folks!

@ILoveMyoozik  
For real, what’s the deal with that cover? It just seems like it’s trying too hard to recapture the ‘80s retro feel, kind of like Ready Player One.

Okay, I’m listening to random hit songs from the year 1980, and holy shit does this year suck for popular music.
 
So much dull boring adult contemporary, annoying post disco shlock, underwhelming ballads and soul records, and a lot of the singers in general looking and singing like registered sex offenders.

@ILoveMyoozik  
Oddly enough, that and 1979 were the only two years when Queen achieved #1 hits in the US.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Actually, it’s just 1980. Both “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” and “Another One Bites The Dust” reached number one in February and October of that year respectively.

@ILoveMyoozik  
Huh. Must’ve gotten confused somehow. Wonder why that year was so exceptional for Queen.

@TheHappySpaceman  
I think it was because this was their last “good year” before the release of the polarizing “Hot Space” in 1983, which saw everyone turn away from Queen.

@ILoveMyoozik  
‘82, actually.
 
Honestly, Hot Space wasn’t even that bad. Only “Body Language” was. The rest was alright.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Oh, my bad.
 
I saw your review and it seemed like an okay album.
 
But anyways, 1980 was a shitty year in music and I’m not surprised that with the exception of some classics, this year is usually forgotten.

So, I just got some interesting college assignment this week. Me and my fellow band are assigned to make a score transcript and arrangements of modern pop songs

I truly believe Michael Jackson was innocent
