you know, I don't quite remember where I came across The Weepies! XD I think it might have been one of those bands where iTunes said to me, "hey, since you have this music, you might like these guys too."
of course, that marketing technique doesn't work on me because once I listen to samples of the music, I go and borrow the CD from the library and put it on my computer for FREEEE. <3
World Spins Madly On is one of my two most favoritest Weepies songs. The other, Riga Girls, doesn't have an official video, but the song is really great. you must listen.
a band that I think is a lot like The Weepies but leans slightly more towards indie pop and less towards folk is Stars. I bet you'd like them too.

other examples of indie folk music:
Sufjan Stevens
Feist
Bon Iver
Beirut
There are a lot more great folksy artists out there. these are just a few of the ones that I like, and they all have a lot of really fantastic songs other than the ones I posted. if you feel compelled to explore even more, I would look though the last.fm listing of top indie folk artists. last.fm is a genius when it comes to music. it knows what I like, and it's magic.

Haha, it doesn't work on me either. I either play like a pirate (yo ho!) or download it from a friend.

::listening while typing:: I may just need to prod you for more music if you come out with stuff like this ::is a bit of a junkie:: It's not my fault there are some really good bands out there! (Anywho) LOL, Last.fm. I remember hopelessly tinkering with this site when I first came in touch with it. I didn't get that I had to register and make a playlist to listen to the music I wanted. ::utter fail::

(If so, go back on Lucid. That guy is here to meet her. xD)

Espy =/= Lucid.
We are separate entities. yus.

I never use last.fm to actually listen to my music, I just use the scrobbler in conjunction with iTunes to keep track of what I do listen to.

I love music a ton and could talk about it all day, so if you ever need recommendations, I'd be happy to spill them out.

as an illustration of how great my desire to collect music is, for my birthday today, one of my friends gave me a flash drive with his entire iTunes library on it, "minus nonsensical music that I don't think you'd like." thing is, I like all different sorts, and I was upset that he didn't include things that I wanted that I know he has, like The Newsies soundtrack, musical score to Up, et cetera. but the regular-people music he gave me was nice too. (I already owned about half of it, lawl.)

for my last post with all the links and crap, I got over 50 aurum. 50.23 or something? I thought that was pretty neat, since it's really hard to get over 45 and you pretty much never-ever see over 50. x3

Haha, I think now I'll just be picking on you for it.
(Not exactly accusing you of being the same person, just teasing. xP)

Awesome, thanks for the invite! I'll probably take you up on it for certain genres. :)
[Edit; Okay, after hearing all of this, I know I'm going to never speak to you again because flame.leaf (the 200+ days guy) has finally registered. You two are already so much alike in this aspect. I am SURE that he will flood you with as many bands as he can if you allow/want him to. Enjoy! xD]

LOL! I already have such a respect for you. XD

This is true. D: I replied in a role play and got... 50.something aurum. I freaked out. XD

Lucid, I do believe we have a mutual desire. One can never have too much music, and my 1 Terabyte hard drive is beginning to reach it's limits, and iTunes would crash a supercomputer with my library index.

You can call me flame, or leaf, whichever, I suppose. Fallen invited me and said you wanted to meet me so, here I am. This is also my first post. xD

Hi Lucid, and yeah. I can already tell. xD

I'd also like to correct something Fallen said. I actually have over 300 days of music now. I'm getting close to a year's worth! ^_^

So, what kind of music are you into? :]

wow. :O I am impressed with your collection. I just barely hit 20 days. XD I would probably have more if I used torrents, but I fear for my computer's health.

I'm into lots of different music, but mostly indie-alternative rockish stuff with indie and folk pop thrown in as well. plus techno. I listen to so much stuff that's similar to one another yet different in their own ways, I don't really know what genres to throw out anymore.
I guess the easiest way is through my last.fm charts
accurate over the course of a year, minus a 3-month period where my computer was broken so I couldn't scrobble, nor could I collect anything new. it was a depressing 3 months. :C
