The Curse

[Rantz]

You said something wrong and the evil wizard from the land beyond the dark mountains was mighty annoyed with you, so he put a curse on you. You can only ever listen to 5 artists/bands for the rest of your life. The good part is you get to choose which ones!

Which five artists/bands do you choose to be your only providers of sweet sweet music for the rest of your life? My list:

♫ Bob Dylan
♫ Leonard Cohen
♫ Tom Waits
♫ Billie Holiday
♫ Patti Smith

I'd put more modern stuff in there but man, I need wide discographies! There are so many choices that are painful to exclude, though.

[Inferno]

Thrice
Pink Floyd
Damien Rice
Coldplay
Radiohead

It is painful. The evil wizard really is evil.

[NeoCracker]

Kamelot
Franz Ferdinand
Billy Joel
Santana
Weird Al Yankovick.

4 of those artists have fairly large Catalogs, so I should be entertained for a long while. :P

[LunarWeaver]

Bit of a sweetheart to give me choices, really.

Let's see.

Bjork
Lady GaGa (yup)
Madonna (yup)
Fiona Apple
Pink

This turned out a bit depressing.

[Rase]

Motion City Soundtrack
Black Eyed Peas
Evanesence
Within Temptation
Oreskaband

[Captain Maxx Power]

Alrighty;

- The Butterfly Effect
- Pantera
- Korn
- Machine Head
- Pearl Jam

[blackmage_nuke]

Savage Garden
Billy Joel
Nobuo Uematsu


I cant think of anyone else I'd desperately want to listen to, Elvis maybe

[rubah]

*sneakily picks big discographies*

The Beatles
Pink Floyd
Daft Punk
The Flaming Lips
Muse

[Moon Rabbits]

Bjork
Lady GaGa (yup)
Madonna (yup)
Fiona Apple
Pink

You 'yup' Madonna and Lady GaGa, but not Pink? Where are your priorities.





These folks would do.

[TheAbominatrix]

1. The Beatles
2. The Flaming Lips (yay rubah!)
3. The Grateful Dead
4. Phish, but only live Phish. It's always different so I would never be bored.
5. Beck

[Bunny]

1. Pain of Salvation
2. The Butterfly Effect
3. Kotebel
4. John C. Reilly
5. Radiohead

[Slothy]

Tool
Led Zeppelin
Rush
Dave Matthews Band
Nobuo Uematsu

Those'd give me a pretty wide discography. Helps that they're artists I've listened to repeatedly for years and never stop enjoying.

[Rantz]

If that was as painful for you as it was for me, you'll be happy to hear that your fairy godmother has finished watching her soaps and sets out to help! She doesn't manage to break the curse, but she weakens it enough that you get an extra five artists/bands! Isn't that a release? Like letting yourself go after holding it in for too long. I add the following!

♫ Bjork
♫ Nobuo Uematsu
♫ The Shins
♫ PJ Harvey
♫ Neil Young

Of course, if you haven't done your first list yet, split them up into pre- and post-godmother!

[Inferno]

Muse
John Mayer
Glen Hansard
Jack Johnson
