Jeph and Australian Music?

<< < (16/17) > >>

_grace_:
okay aussies here- think about how you say "wine". say it. think again.

NOW think of how she sings it. understand?

Inlander:
I don't know - how does she say "wine"?

But also, don't forget there are differing degrees of Australian accent.  For all our talk of not having any regional accents, the way a person speaks in Adelaide is likely to be very different from the way a person speaks in Mount Isa.

EDIT: anyway, the point remains that Missy Higgins, when she sings, sounds a hell of a lot more "Aussie" than most Australian pop/rock singers out there.

geg:
Augie March are awesome. One of my all time fav bands. I love Strange Bird. I can't decide on my favourite song ebcause they're all good...but Little Wonder is just...fantastic!

Missy Higgins...it's strange because her album feels so..restrained. She has the ability to write excellent songs (as we saw with her unearthed entry and that other EP which I can't remember the name of. Greed For Your Love?) but her album seems so...samey. Scar is definately a great song, despiute it being flogged by everyone...which gets annoying. So blah, second album hopefully she lets loose and isn't so...boring.

_grace_:
boring is definately the word. however good, it is just boring. as i think i've said, scar was great, and 'ten days'

Hey, how was he? I saw him in Canberra a few weeks ago. Just awesome; one of the best shows I've been to.

Anyhoo, some other fun aussie bands I don't think have been mentioned that I like:

Frenzal Rhomb
The Spazzys
The Tremors
And Holly Throsby, who supported Darren Hanlon when I saw him: gorgeous.
