Is often the music I can talk the least about. The reason is that I buy the CD's or vinyl and listen straight off that, so track names have no meaning at all. So when people start talking about (insert track name here) I am often left thinking "what track number of what release" because that is how I know them. Are the rest of you (who actually buy the music :P) the same? Or do you all learn the track names off by heart. |

...eventually i just learn the name, from thinking "what's this track called?" and checking the back cover about 5million times. |

I listen to music all day and I'm the worst at names, I associate feelings to the music maker, that's it really |

i'm usually pretty terrible with track titles |

Finding the names out never bothers me, except for when people start talking about it. I can hear a peice of music and know straight away what album or EP it is off, but I wouldn't know the name in a million years. I only started thinking about it because I was listening to Blue Jam and heard Rakimou...I knew it was Plaid, I knew it was off Not For Threes and near the middle, but I couldn't remember the name. :D |

sounds like you should get some councelling.. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
actually, when i get a new album of jazz or any other instrumental music I completely forget what the titles are... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
when I seriously started listening to music, when I was 15 or so, I would buy 1 album every 6 months, listen to it non-stop and learn the complete thing including liner-notes inside out. after that, I would still know exactly all the tracktitles. these days, I'm lucky if I remember the artists name, maybe the album name. and yes, I do remember the track numbers too. :) |
||||||||

Actually, I never thought about that. I suppose it is easier to remember track names when there are vocals in the tracks. |

it's purer that way isn't it? music should have no verbal equivalent...as a culture we have this tendency (need) to verbalize everything. when you look at a piece of art in a museum, be it a sculpture, installation, or whatever, do you look at the title first? most people do. i try not to look at all. if i have to look, i look after. it's more fun that way. stan brakhage once wrote, "imagine the multitude of colors in a field of grass to a child who doesn't know the word 'green'." |

now when I have a few new albums, I rip them to mp3s and listen to them on my discman. so the whole idea of tracktitles and even tracknumbers just disappears. IT'S THE NEW REALITY, MAN!! |
||||||||

I used to do a paper round and bought 1 album, or two vinyl, every two weeks and I was the same...I learnt the liner noted inside out. I loved rap albums because they used to have about 3 sides of tiny writing of shout outs :D |

I use SoundForge 7.0 and Nuendo 2, although the last one has been a bit crabby lately (suddenly imploding, stuff like that - but thats what you get for not paying..). |

yeah, I used to be like qrter... I would listen to one cd basically for ages, memorizing every aspect of it... not so much anymore though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, i'm just like that. Not just with none-vocal trracks wherre the name can't rreally be linked thrrough the lyrrics eitherr, but otherr music too. I can sing everry Leonard Cohen song off his firrst 3 albums yet couldn't put a name to any of them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah.. I don't know ANY fucking track-names except for, like, the songs that other people enjoy, 'cause they're talking to me about them, and then I go "eh.. is that the one with the [sound] in it?" and then, after two months of continuous talking about it, I finally remember it.. it's the same with peoples names and years... takes me two months to remember anything like that! theories about etichal problems, on the other hand, I remember instantly... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm the same, never know the track names. I usually listen in my car when driving or snuggly tucked up in bed (usually stoned), neither of which is conducive to learning track names! i always keep in a separate window when i'm on xlt, for ease of reference. lo; problem solved. |

My favorite music is gay art pop, and I know all the names of all the tracks, and all the trivial facts about all my favorite songs, and all the chords, and the date the track was recorded on, and what model guitar was used, and what make of drums, and all outside contributers. With Eye Dee Em, a bit of the times I AM a bit in the dark concerning track names, but I would rather learn them. I don't have a problem with bizarre, self conscious spellings, either. |
