[QUOTE=Paladud] Just stuff that came up in order for some strange reason when I played my music library. It works oddly well. 1. Chopin’s funeral march 2. Sephiroth - One Winged Angel with chorus 3. Trauermarsch from Mahler’s first 4. Liszt’s Totentanz 5. Pigs (Three Different Ones) - Pink Floyd, Animals [/QUOTE] Er, and 6) Tristram theme from Diablo. ---

_OK Computer_, **Radiohead**. My wife listened to it the other day, obviously. I’m more and more an iTunes guy. The kind of in-between soon-to-be-middle-aged (or frankly, with some luck already lived half his life) who still buys CD:s, but rip them and put them away. ---

[QUOTE=kung fu lola] Ooh, is it any different from the NA release? I heard rumours, but nothing substantiated. [/QUOTE] **Lola** , Not really. The DVD is region 2 but it’s the exact same program. If you want me to look for any of the rumored differences, I’ll be glad to do it. If there are any other Japanese Madonna releases that are important, please tell me; I’ll be in Japan a while. ---

Oh they were just supposed to have added some of the audio tracks that were missing from the NA release. As for important releases, if you can find the ROL double-disc you should snatch it right up. If you’re an ebayer, any of the original Brilla Mare Ariake print ads would fetch a small fortune from any one of us on this side of the pond. ---

Not only wasn’t I listening to that disk\*, I have only the Japanese version of _The Confessions Tour_, so I have no idea the difference between the releases. I’ll look for the North America version so I can compare. Wow, what an airhead I am! Print ads for that tower in Tokyo? Sounds interesting. I’ll ask a friend to keep an eye out as I don’t live near Tokyo. Dadburned podunk, we don’t even have a 7-11! - I was listening to _I’m going to tell you a secret_, of which I bought the US version and what I thought was the Japanese version, but apparently the Japanese record store slipped me the US version. I have GOT to learn the language! _The Confessions Tour_, now that I’m listening to it, is much more enjoyable than _Secret_. ---

Sarah Fimm’s _Nexus_, I think. Or maybe _Cocooned_. I’m not sure which. I also have _A Perfect Dream_ by the same artist in my car. I don’t think I actually own any other licensed CDs. All my music’s on my computer and mp3 player. ---
