BGM


Congrats BGM! If you don't know what BGM stands for, it means background music, aka anime music OST. You can pick any theme from an anime or japanese video game, be it an instrumental piece or a song, but you CAN'T pick anime Openings or Endings. It HAS to be a single piece of background music from the soundtrack.

Start posting your songs from now till the end of August!! Deadline is the 31st of August 23:59 GMT.

Please be careful of your choice!! You're only allowed of one per person!

DON'T post links of the songs here! ONLY post youtube videos of your song choice.
Instead, send the songs in a private message to Lumikki.
Whoever doesn't follow this new rule, his comment will be erased and song choice won't be taken under consideration!

Remember! Whoever doesn't participate, doesn't get the full song list at the end!
Even if you didn't vote in the poll, you can still participate by posting a song!

So post your one song choice and most of all... have fun! ;))

The song posting starts HERE

Oh, I'm so voting for BGM!!! Why? Because...for a lunatic person who once downloaded 15 GB of anime OST that just had to be the first choice.

The other choices are great too, the third one's insanely awesome xD The 90's...man, there are too many marvelous songs to choose from. I think I'll have trouble picking just one song whichever option wins.

Hmmm...September ...I had something on my mind earlier, but I forgot >-< Will probably throw a suggestion or two after I think more about it.

Let's see...

1. Bleach and .hack/Sign have AWESOME soundtracks (wait isn't this kind of like last month except more specific?)

2. Let's see sum-sum-summertime...nah, fuck this choice XD

3. OMG. I spent 6 weeks in Israel when I was 17 years old and they played Macarena everywhere. Muahahaha.

4. Well there was this song by Evanescence...wait, we already played that.

5. Does this include remix/covers of 80s songs?

6. +1 Meta. So many great choices from the 90s. Green Day Fugees, there's a dozen just from those 2 I could pick

haha glad you liked it meta! ;) and i know what you mean by not wanting to choose just one song. if not so many people participate, we might have to post two songs again, we'll see.. ;) but hopefully more will take part in this cause it's so much fun i think! :D
glad u liked the choices! ;D

Lotus, you're f** hillarious! xD I was laughing while reading!! hahaha
About the 80's no today's remixes are allowed.. i only meant the original 80's or 90's songs!! :) And I know these themes are a torture to just pick one song from them, but that's why I put them! xD LOL You'll just have to pick for one that is more striking to you! :P Well, if those themes win.
Last months' anime theme was about character songs, it wasn't similar to this.

i'll have to think of sth for next month

I chose the 90s although replay rape would be nice too since I usually like popular songs.

@Justice
Glad you enjoyed it ;) I don't think I would have picked 80s if if remixes were allowed. I just don't like them much.

@Meta
Funny. So true though about too many choices. I remember reading or hearing about that in some study a few years ago

@Lotus

It cut off because you put large text underneath! :) And that counts to the overall size of the sig that is allowed. I think that it's 600x140 pixels, which means that height should be maximum 140 pixels, text included. Try making your text smaller and you'll notice the difference! ;) That's how I noticed too..

why not? i admit i love the 90's tons more, cause that's the decade i lived my childhood years, but it's very rare to find someone that had his childhood in the 80's not to like the music of the decade. some people go so far as to say that it might have been the best decade of the century music-wise! again i don't have an opinion on that, i'm just getting to know more about the decade lately, and I admit I really like what I hear.. but i love the late 90's and the early 00's more, my late childhood and early adolescence respectively.

I didn't really start listening to music as a kid until was 12 years old. The first thing I started listening to was rap and that was the early 90s (I'm not really a fan of old school rap anymore, but I loved it as a kid). There first things I listened to were Vanilla Ice, MC hammer, and DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince (aka Will Smith). I also had the soundtrack to New Jack City. There was a song on the sound track by Ice T called Original Gangsta. Here's one old school rap that I still like:
(Holy crap I just listened to this again and there's dubstep in there!!!! BTW, Burger King bathroom was what got censored. Yes, corporations [and conservative religious zealots] rule America.)



Can't believe I got back into my political rant when talking about The Humpty Dance. I don't like a lot music from the early 90s except for Beastie Boys, Green Day and Metallica. I like some stuff from mid 90s and a lot of stuff from the late 90s.

What I meant is that I was 11 in 1999 when that song was a big hit and I friggin loved it (I remember nagging my mom to buy me the album even though it wasn't available in my country the moment it was released in the USA). But that whole post was just a little bit of trolling.
