I thought with all your previous  comments you were just  a little eccentric...Now with these I am truly worried
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

From the opera "Rinaldo". Written by a German in Italian for the London stage. How does that work?  :-\ :-\ :-\

Danielle De Niese can sing me to sleep anytime she likes, though. >:< :x

I think the only thing that matters is that it works.  :D

I'd rather she sings me awake!

Then of course there's Mozart and Katherine Jenkins.  :x

I Promised myself I wouldn't inflict my music choice on others. However, I didn't listen  :d

I'm going to answer this in 2 posts. (sorry for any repeats, there have already been some really, really good recommendations. I love picking up new music this way!)

First post is all the wargaming tues. I figured ones I like listening to while paining were best sorted by what I'm paining.

WW1/RCW Russain armies:

(bit of a no brainer!)

or this:

 

Fantasy stuff: (anything from this album, but this track especially)



or these guys if I'm needing something cheezy:



I am also working on some cold war stuff, so these tunes (which some of you may recognise form a certain film) end up getting played a lot too...





But also these because hey, they're east german

aaaaaand Post 2 is just going to be me tune spamming y'all

An absolute banger:


this one always makes me laugh and I'm not sure why, but it draws some funny looks when I crack up in the middle of town, chuckling to myslef:


Mis colegas (my mates 'en espanol')


and this one was a good find on eurovision last year:


this is really some 'worthwhile' 3rd wave ska:


and the sax solo from this is pretty damn good:


Finally an all time favourite, as well as one of Douglas Adams'

Yeh, it has that vibe to it. Apparently Costello actually did some producing for the specials for a while.

There are in my life a few superlatives. Sean Connery in films; Centurions in the tank world and, of course Pendraken in miniatures. In popular music, there's one band that I can listen to at any time ... the fantastic Fleetwood Mac!

"Rumours" by Fleetwood Mac - memories of Aeron Hall and The College of Librarianship at Llanbadarn Fawr. Good old Aberystwyth, a place with two types of weather - raining and about to rain!

the weather was exactly the same at Bangor Uni ;)  I hear that Aber and Bangor and most of North wales is getting pretty hammered atm (and not in the good sence)

Fleetwood mac- the choice of my housemate when coming back drunk as a skunk. I learned most of the lyrics to the rumors album through the base of my mattress...
