To answer your question, yes.Brandting @ 01/07/2009 08:28 PM : Re: Top 10 of 2008 So far two people with Wall*E in the top five. I thought that movie wasn't very good, what did those people think so worthwhile in that film.Ezreal @ 01/07/2009 08:28 PM : Wait until you hear my vocals. You may reconsider.Osama_Bin_Davis @ 01/07/2009 08:27 PM : Re: Medieval significance in Metal Music??? [quote streetmouse][i][b]I realize this is a blanket statement, never the less it does apply to many ?Metal Groups,? why, or what is the significance of the medieval concept that seems to run through much of the artwork, videos, and stage production?[/i][/b][/quote]
in all honesty its a small proportion of metal that has anythin to do with the medieval themes.TheIdioteque @ 01/07/2009 08:26 PM : Re: Top 10 of 2008 Seriously it was fantastic, it gets hate because of all the praise, which is just too bad.
I probably liked it so much because I saw it on the first day, without knowing what the critical reception was like or how popular it would be. Therefore, I was expecting a mildly exciting, if generic, comicbook superhero movie that would probably be above average (based on the quality of Batman Begins).
I was floored.
Anyways, I have yet to see Milk, Slumdog Millionaire, or Frost/Nixon, which are all supposed to be good, so I my opinion might change.

What Makes A Great Musician? By mark321 You can have two individuals, with similar musical technical ability, play the same exact notes on a guitar and receive completely different reaction from the audience. You can also have musicians who train day in and day out and become extremely good at technically manipulating their instrument but when you hear them play, they hardly evoke any emotional reaction in the audience. On the other hand, you have the other kind of musicians, who may either be technically good or not, but their delivery always triggers a palpable emotional reaction in their audience. So what is the element that makes the difference?.
Maybe we can begin to answer that by following it with these questions. Does the great musician really need an instrument to become one?. Or, to phrase it another way, does the instrument have anything to do in creating a great musician?. The answer is, as you might have guessed is, not really. The instrument is purely incidental, in fact, a great musician can merely whistle and get a favorable audience reaction. Why? because they are born with the internal knowledge of the universal language of music, also know as, the gift of music. The possession of that knowledge or talent is the critical difference between the great musician versus the instrumental player. The great musician usually has a clear connection with the musical language within themselves, making it easy for them to express it. To the extent they can tap into that energy the greater they can reach the audience. The not so great musician, on the other hand, has a blurred connection, if at all. You can play your instrument till you drop dead, if the notes are not connected to your
internal language of you are merely playing notes, not music.
The unfortunate difference between the language of and any other language is that, you cannot learn it. If you are born with it, you can learn how to better tap into it, if you are not born with it however, you might as well take up Spanish. For those born with it, practicing your should involve great attention to the connection of yourself to the language of as much as the time spent with your instrument developing your technique. By that I mean, in order to tap into the energy of easily, you will have to spend a great deal of time taking care of your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health as opposed to just concentrating on your instrument. Ultimately, it is your usefulness, in terms of inspiring and touching your audience that makes you a great musician.
