piano

The only musical instrument that can be sorted into the strings or percussion group.

And also the reason why I can't play in an orchestra (unless by invitation). They can't decide whether to put this damn thing into the strings or the percussion.

nightwish

Unlike the negative definitions sent in under the word look up of 'Metal', Nightwish isn't about "someone being tortured and beaten, and the sound of people stomping on small animals."


They combined something unique. Symphonic, classical music and opera combined with parts of power metal.


Okay, so the "Ocean soul" part has been overdone a bit, and so is the sea motif put in almost every song. But Nightwish is still a good band. That's just Tuomas thinks. His thoughts are in a "Sea of Thoughts", and writes them down and turns it into a song.

Maybe Tuomas should think more than just the ocean?

napoleon dynamite

The most attractive looking nerd with a neat looking afro...yet, not the most attractive (low-budget) movie ever.

It had some funny parts, but there was no progression in the storyline, and there was rarely any background music.

Oh yeah, he is also a Mormon.

Napoleon is a Mormon.
