1. Turisas - One More


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zn_NpnYo3aw

Basically, this was the official drinking song that Minty, Simon, Ash, Sion and myself used to drink beer to. I once collapsed after drinking one small bottle of Budweiser, but I was only 16 ._.

2. Blessed By A Broken Heart - Move Your Body

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0iOTJXIxao

Minty got me into these back in 2008 when I first started college. I thought these were a great band.

3. Motörhead - Ace of Spades

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9e5cqe_JE0Q

Cook sang this song in the third series of Skins. During the fourth series you could hear it in the background on one of the episodes.

4. The Prodigy - Omen

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olHnyslc-OM

One of the biggest things to happen to me. Witnessing The Prodigy release a single, and a good one at that! Alot of my friends like them which is very surprising!

5. Rex The Dog - Bubblicious

Anche il begnamino-autore dell'opening theme di Chrono Cross ha i propri scheletri nell'armadio.
Come ben sappiamo i giapponesi hanno l'abitudine di applicare la loro mentalità geniale in qualsiasi campo in cui operano. Il problema è che sono geniali non per quanto concerne l'originalità, ma per la rielaborazione.
L'arpeggio di Until the end of Time è casualmente molto simile a quello di una canzone dei Rusted Root, ovvero Where She Runs. Sottolineo che quest'ultima è stata rilasciata nel primo album della band, nel 1992 e trovo improbabile che i Rusted Root abbiano trova ispiriazione da Yasunori Mitsuda, poiché egli stesso ha composto l'OST di un gioco che è stato pubblicato nel 1999.
Detto questo, rido un pò, ma ovviamente sono due canzoni molto diverse, volevo solo pignoleggiare e infine rassicurare Mitsuda:
Non ti preoccupare, io ti amo, fai musica splendida e porca troia, Until the end of time non si può paragonare a nulla! E' fine a se stessa ed è semplicemente unica.
