Time To Vote!

Robert Plant had to be on there.
As you can see, I have added a poll to the side of  the blog. I'm taking votes right now for a future project so it is important that all you guys out there vote. I know that there are a bunch of famous singers missing, but I just want you all to choose from what I got there. There will be more polls like this in the future so be warned.
Awesome! Lots and lots of pictures!

I have Bob Seger
Don't forget Ann.
I made sure to add Freddie too.

Weird Wednesday Returns! (Cue Dramatic Music)

As always, "Weird Al" Yankovic is amazing and deserves to be shown on this blog. He has made an appearance on this blog before. Today I feature his music video of "Eat It". It's a great song which is the parody of the song "Beat It" by Michael Jackson. Personally, this song makes me very hungry.

Bohemian Rhapsody- What Does It Really Mean?

A lot of people know about the song Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, but do they know what it's really about? A lot of people would say it's about a guy who killed a man and tells his mom.  Some people think it's about a guy's mom who frames his son for killing a man (what an evil mom). Freddie Mercury is the one who knows for sure, but he never told anyone and now he's gone. Part of the greatness of the song though is that no one really knows what it means. Queen has sworn to never tell the meaning of any of their songs. We may never know what it really means, but the not-knowing makes the song 20% cooler.
Brian May said in an interview that if everyone knew what the song Bohemian Rhapsody meant, it would lose some of its meaning and wouldn't be as good. (Paraphrase)

Or as I always say, "If I actually listened to the lyrics of this song closely, it might have some sort of deeper meaning to it."

This is the 1975 album that the song Bohemian Rhapsody appeared on.
If you want to take a look at the song yourself, I have the lyrics below to help you figure out the meaning.


If you think you know what it means, please comment below. I want to see what other people think.

Rock of Ages- The Song not The Blog

Today I'm going to be talking about the song Rock of Ages by Def Leppard. The song is from Def Leppard's album Pyromania in 1983. It's a great song which has a great sounding guitar and also great sounding drums. (The drums are what I like most about Def Leppard's songs.) I have the music video below. It is ridiculous!




It's a really cool sounding song. I really like the beginning where the singer says the sort-of-German-but-more-nonsense phrase "Gunter glieben glauben globen". This phrase has no meaning, but sometimes when people would ask the band what it means, they would make up stuff.

I said to myself, "How can I make this post longer and better?"
I answered, "Just add a picture!"
Brilliant.

I'm Back!

I'm back you guys so here's a good song that fits the mood. (At least to a degree) It's by Aerosmith!
Also, there is some comments at the end by the band because this video clip is from a DVD, but that's nothing to worry about.
The song Back In the Saddle by Aerosmith (the song being played above) is found on their 1976 album Rocks
Shown below:
Be sure to come back because I'll have better posts up sometime this week and very interesting ones at that.
See you all later!
