<p>It’s a shame Brand New doesn’t release albums more frequently. Three albums in the past eight years? What’s up with that?</p>
<p>The Early November <— anything by Ace really
Blink <— should be number 1 for anyone born between 1987 and 1990?
Brand New <— 70x7, duhhh?
Motion City Soundtrack <— cant believe more people didnt list them?
Fallout Boy <— Take This To Your Grave is a masterpiece.</p>
<p>and:</p>
<p>Hit The Lights <– everyone should buy their new EP coming out this summer because I sing on it :]</p>
<p>BrandNew, I love MCS but not top 5 and also Early November is great, as well as Hit the Lights, I can’t wait to see them at Vans Warped Tour.</p>
<p>I have a bunch of preferred performers, so let’s do this by composer:</p>
<p>Ludwig van Beethoven
Anton</p>
<ol>
<li>Dave Matthews Band</li>
<li>Dispatch</li>
<li>Ben Folds (Five)</li>
<li>State Radio</li>
<li>Coldplay</li>
<li>RHCP</li>
</ol>
<p>Not necessarily in that order, but something like that.</p>

<p>i listen to pretty much everything and my songs change on a daily basis :P</p>
<p>Basshunter
Green Day
Phantom of the Opera/Wicked/Les Mis
Journey, Chicago, oldies :P</p>
<p>annnd cant think of any more atm… 
I generally like individual songs, not necessarily artists as a whole</p>
<p>^ Woot for Phantom of the Opera. I love that shizz. <3</p>
<p>I think it’s a masterpiece. :)</p>
<p>naw, les mis is much better. my favorite play by a lot</p>
<p>I haven’t listened to Les Miserables in full yet, but now I’m afraid I won’t be able to without picturing Susan Boyle in my head.</p>
<p>Ugh.</p>
<p>@yawn: hahahaha touche 
Susan Boyle was good, and it was great for public ratings and all buuuut…honestly Ruthie Henshall did so much of a better job
hooray for showtunes!
also, yawn, i have a question for you: out of pure curiosity are you a guy or a chick? XD</p>
<p>you really should see it if you can. im talking its my favorite play in terms of the story and music, but mainly the story. its just great. and dont get me wrong. i love the music too. </p>
<p>i wasnt really that big on phantom, but to each their own.</p>
<p>
Chicks and guys actually have fairly distinct voices when typing, though apparently my typing voice is sexually ambivalent. :(</p>
<p>I am a macho, macho man! RRRRRAWR! <em>flexes</em></p>
<p>
Think of Me, All I Ask of You, and Masquerade are the shiznit.</p>
<p>Oh, and let’s not forget the unadulterated win that is Monty Python’s Spamalot. :)</p>
<p>yea…you express your masculinity in a way that is lucidly obvious XD heh.
alsooo…Point of No Return is better than BOTH those songs :D</p>
<p>yes yes, spamalot was brilliant. </p>
<p>however, i gotta be honest, i dont know the songs by name. either i leave the play thinking, i liked the music or i didnt. but for les mis i know quite a few of the songs by some of the big lyrics just from haveing seen it so many times (perhaps too many…6)</p>
<p>zackr13, you should get the EP HTL is releasing on warped, i do guest vocals on one of the tracks. my name should be listed in the cd too :]</p>
<p>lol and the early november really wasnt that great, i suppose its just that For All Of This was just a HUGE staple in my young life.</p>
<p>probably first emo CD i ever got. :P</p>
<p>@yawn: It was a toss-up between Mozart, Bach, and Chopin. I had already made enough contrarian choices today, so I stuck with Mozart.</p>
<p>I like your choice of Shostakovich.</p>
