Thanatopsis zine was established in 1994. 3 issues were released between 94-98. 1st issue was "Open Minded" and had interviews with all sorts of bands in the underground, regardless of genre. Issue 2 and 3 concentrated on metal only. With the advances in technology and the internet, Thanatopsis zine has emerged as a blog/e-zine.
The Wiggles were a band Aiman used to love and so did we! They are a band from Australia and sing about children's songs. Our first encounter was when Aiman was at Lollipops, Toot toot Chugga chugga big red car is one catchy song and so are a lot of the others. Aiman adored the Wiggles and EVERY TIME we were in the care, it was Wiggle Time! No other songs in the car apart from Wiggles! They teach kids about health, eating and having fun. Have a listen to this:
Now Aiman denies the fact that he even liked the Wiggles. He's into Ben 10 & the likes at his ripe old age of 5...
I was browsing Yahoo I think when I came across a covers album of the Wiggles performed by Australian artists called ReWiggled. I have downloaded it from the pirate bay and boy, it's good! The same song above is covered by Oh Mercy. Very cool sound:
Nice..... How fast are our kids growing up these days....
Ni minggu lagu2 cover utk aku. Lagu seterusnya adalah Whiskey in the jar. Lagu pub tradisional Irish ni telah dimodenkan oleh Phil Lynotte & Thin Lizzy dan seterusnya oleh Metallica dlm album Garage Inc. Mengisahkan pasal seorang lelaki yg telah dipenjarakan setelah diperdaya oleh seorang gadis....
2006 masa aku still kat Dublin, aku dpt menyaksikan Metallica live masa Download festival. !st and most likely last open air concert aku kot. Dok NZ mana ada metal festival ni! Nasib aku x patah ribs aku time tu. Aku dok dkt depan 2nd area, time metallica main org semua dok bertolak ke depan. Aku terpaksa ke belakang lepas 2-3 lagu. Time ni Metallca main Master of Puppets in all its entirety - 20 thn anniversary. Lagu Whiskey kat2 last dah. Hari tu jugak bday anak Jamez, siap dia bawak kluar stage & suruh fans nyanyi Happy Birthday kat anak dia....
Enjoy Whiskey in the Jar-o... Aku letak 3 version: Dubliners, Thin Lizzy & last skali time festival - I WAS THERE IN 2006!!!
Metallica/Thin Lizzy - Whiskey in the Jar
As I was going over the Cork and Kerry Mountains
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
I said "Stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya"
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money yeah and I brought it home to Molly
She swore that she loved me no never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman, yeah, for you know she tricked me easy
Musha rain dum-a-doo dum-a-da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o
Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' my Molly with me, but I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up, fired my pistols, and I shot him with both barrels
Musha rain dum-a-doo dum-a-da, ha, ya
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o
Yeah, whiskey, yo, whiskey...
Oh-oh, ya
Now some men like a fishin', but some men like the fowlin'
Some men like to hear, to hear the cannonball a-roarin'
But me, I like sleepin', `specially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain, yeah
Semlm tetiba aku teringat dekat 2 lagu ni. Ntah macam mana aku boleh igt pun aku tak pasti. Yang pastinya lagu-lagu ni dendangan band Nightwish dari Finland.
Time Nemo (bukan Finding Nemo, x tau aku awat depa bg tajuk nemo) keluar, album Once. Time tu aku kat Scotland, lepas final medical exam aku 2004, lepak dgn bini before start kerjaya sebagai doctor.
Mmg best album ini, especially lagu Nemo ni. Ni la album pertama yg aku dgr dari Nightwish. Vocals Tarja mmg menusuk kalbu & irama2 rancak, headbanging sedap. Guitar work depa dlm lagu ni mmg terbaik.
Lagu Over the hills plak, lagu cover dari Gary Moore, ala yg popular dgn Still got the blues for you tu... hehehe bg aku cover Nightwish lagi sedap, mungkin sebab aku dgr version Nightwish dulu. Again, guitar work, best!
Aku jumpa tabs utk 2-2 lagu ni dlm Ultimate-Guitar, boleh la main sket2 takat rhythm tapi lead mmg susah la.
Enjoy Tarja & co. Sayangnya Tarja telah dipecat dari Nightwish... Lagu2 ni aku tujukan kat isteri & anak2 terchinta yg kini berada di Malaysia selama 3 minggu.
