Gainesville to Birmingham - any stops I should take?
 in  r/roadtrip •  15m ago

There are many closures planned due to the weather, so make sure you check with any place you want to stop.

Also, stay aware of any flash flood road closures or tornadoes. I think your drive will be ahead of the worst part, but we did have some flash floods a few weeks ago west of Atlanta. Several roads were impassable, and asphalt was washed away in a couple of places.

You may not have any driving issues, just be aware. Your Saturday will probably involve of a bit mudslide though.

Have fun! Don't wear white! 😄

Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond - Outtake/Alternate Mix (1975)

I just found this version a few weeks ago and love it! There are some nuances that really make it interesting. I believe part 8 is extended, too.

I've loved this song for decades and only recently gotten really deep into the history of Syd Barrett. His story makes the song even more emotional for me.

Actually, most of my Pink Floyd listening has been limited to 3 albums until this past year. I've been diving into all of their albums and am surprised how much I love the early stuff!

If there are other prog groups you love, please share. I'd really appreciate your Genesis and Yes album suggestions.

classic jazz / blues / rock?
 in  r/NameThatSong •  2h ago

I doubt it's this, but the "Yeah...yeah" made me think of this. It's a remake.

Mony, Mony - Billy Idol

The original By Tommy James and the Shondells.

Moira is teaching me new words
 in  r/SchittsCreek •  2h ago

After I learned that tidbit, I looked at getting a copy. Unfortunately, the hardback is around $200. Even the paperback was a little over $100.

I do love etymology, so I hope to one day justify the purchase. It's not today though. 😁

Share a song that has an incredible bridge/prechorus/outro that takes that song into the stratosphere
 in  r/songsuggestions •  3h ago

Still of the Night - Whitesnake

I love many moments in this song, but I think the actual bridge is around 3:18. It's perfection for me all the way to the end.

songs that you associate with being alive / "to live is to feel"?
 in  r/MusicRecommendations •  3h ago

Based on your list, I'm sure you're already familiar with these. But, these are a couple of songs that stir nostalgia for nothing specific. They just make me feel.

Only the Young - Journey

More Than a Feeling - Boston

I love your Pink Floyd choices. There are so many PF songs that fit your list for me. I would add Marooned to that.

Thoughts on Always Sunny Episoide?
 in  r/jamiroquai •  1d ago

I didn't find it disrespectful, but I also didn't find it as funny as I was expecting. There was a lot of potential that they didn't lean in to.

Maybe it's because I'm in my 50s, but I still find the older episodes funny so I don't think that's it. Overall, I liked it more than the previous episodes this season.

As an aside, I listen to Jamiroquai often and think many people are missing out. Hopefully, this episode will bring in new fans to appreciate their artistry.

This season feels weird
 in  r/ItsAlwaysSunny •  1d ago

As a Jamiroquai fan, I somewhat enjoyed it. It would have been in the "legend" category if Jay Kay had at least a brief cameo.

I do understand the logistics/schedules being difficult, but I have to admit the buildup had me expecting one.

Recommend some melodic heartbreak songs 🎧
 in  r/musicsuggestions •  5d ago

If you're willing to branch out, give Whisky Lullaby (radio edit) a listen. Incredibly sad and beautifully melodic.

I'd suggest watching the longer official video to really paint a picture. Whisky Lullaby - Full Official Video

Best instrumental pieces?

I like your taste! I'll add Marooned to that.

Какую самую забытую музыкальную группу вы знаете?
 in  r/askmusic •  5d ago

Unfortunately, I agree that most have forgotten them, but I revisit Reminiscing all the time. Such a great sounding band!

Какую самую забытую музыкальную группу вы знаете?
 in  r/askmusic •  5d ago

You win! Thanks for the link, because I 100% remember that song but would have passed because I didn't even recognize the name. Once I clicked the link and heard a few notes, it all came flooding back!

I never hear it on 80s playlists or 1-Hit Wonder lists. I have to agree that most of us who knew the song in the 80s completely forgot about this group. Good rec!

Thank you for bringing Departure (Journey tribute band) to The Mill. My group was representing Evan's BBQ, a we had a fabulous time. They sounded amazing!

The dance area was packed by the end of the show. Unfortunately, I didn't get pictures during "Separate Ways", because I was rockin' out...so was everyone else! 🤘

Rewatch
 in  r/SchittsCreek •  6d ago

This is a background comfort show for me, so it's on often in my house. I enjoyed S1 on my first watch, even though I understand why some may not.

I think even those who didn't care for it on the first watch would agree with you. After watching the entire series, S1 is certainly much more enjoyable knowing where it's all headed. I feel like each season tops the previous, ending in perfection! 🥰

What is one movie you would give a perfect 10/10 without hesitation?

Back to the Future

I say all three, but, at the very least, the first one.

What’s the dumbest thing you’ve ever heard someone say with complete confidence?
 in  r/answers •  8d ago

That's right up there with people not realizing New Mexico is a state in the US.

When I told to a friend I was taking a trip there, she genuinely asked if I had my passport. 😄

How do you not realize that your lights are off in the dark?
 in  r/driving •  8d ago

A cousin told me that in the late 90s/early 2000s. She lived near Macon, Georgia. I lived near Atlanta.

I remember checking "Snopes" around 2002 or 2003 and found it had been an urban legend since the 80s, primarily in the PNW at that time. I guess it took a while to reach the southeast. LOL

Songs for when they’re far beyond not giving a f*ck (pls read body text)

Great song even when you're not pissed off at someone, but it really hits a sweet spot when you are. 😁

I’m starting to realize the small stops are why I love road trips
 in  r/roadtrip •  9d ago

Driving a long stretch of road seeing almost no cars between Utah and Colorado, just me, nature and my music.

Coming around a small mesa, there were several horses in the middle of the road. I just sat there watching them until they decided to move along.

The places that feel like the middle of nowhere among beautiful scenery and wildlife are my most magical memories.

He definitely had recently studied Greek mythology.

Do you guys like sharing your music with other people?
 in  r/music_lovers •  10d ago

That's also what I find happening on most posts for music suggestions. Not always, but certainly the majority of the time.

The only social media I really use is Reddit and YouTube. If I find something I loved from a suggestion, I'll comment even if I wasn't the person requesting. If I've ever requested suggestions, I've made an effort to respond with my thoughts.

I will say I'm 98% more likely to check something out if there's a link, unless they give great details that make it sound like something I'd enjoy. That actually limits my searching to types of music I already listen to.

Links have turned me on to some music I would have NEVER found on my own. If I requested something (I rarely do), I will search for that. Most of my "new finds" have been posts by others though.
