What are some good ska bands? I'm really into punk, and people are always telling me I've got to check out ska. So... in your opinion, what are the best ska bands, and what are some good songs by them?

My favorite Ska bands are Reel Big Fish, Streetlight Manifesto and Suburban Legends. Check out the following:

Reel Big Fish:
Sellout
Trendy
Beer
Where have you been

Streetlight Manifesto (My favorite, so everything)
Point/Counterpoint
Big Sleep
Somewhere in the Between
We will fall together
We are the few

Suburban Legends
High Fives
Any of their disney covers are cool

is it illegal to download free music onto your ipod?if so what would happen if you were caught and your, lets say 14 years old?also how would you get caught if you did?

Companies randomly track people who download things illegally online. Your chances of being selected are pretty slim, but if you are caught there is a pretty hefty fine involved depending on how much you have downloaded.

Okay well I know that people hate these type of questions. I'm sorry. But I need help. What are some songs that:

1. Say something about growing up.

2. Show someone that I am there for them.

3. Something about liking someone, but they not liking you [i know almost everything song is like that, but i want a song that is slow and easy to listen to with a gool beat to it]

4. Show that I don't need someone and I can make it with out them.

I like any type of music. But I prefer something that is easy to listen to [like no screaming or rapping or anything like that] Something indie would be okay.

Help me please, it's VERY important.

1. Boys Like Girls - "The Great Escape"


3. The Academy Is - "Attention" [This song is absolutely perfect for this one]
Cartel - "Honestly"

4. Avril Lavinge - "I Can Do Better"
Reel Big Fish - "Where Have You Been?"


This would fit in #3 or #4
Fall Out Boy - "My Heart Is The Worst Kind of Weapon"

i heard this song last night and i don't know what it is. i really liked it too!

it starts off as like an instrumental part for maybe 10-15 seconds. then the first line is "i never thought i'd die alone". the band sounded like blink 182 or +44. i heard it on a rock radio station.

does anyone know what it is?

It's Adam's song by Blink 182

i hope people can help as much as possible. =)

i`m makin a video on windows movie maker.
i know how to put pictures on there but music oh my am i havin trouble. i have no idea how to download//upload music. so please help i want a song on the videos i`m makin one for myy best friend that died && myy aunt. so please guide me through.

i also want to put them on a dvd type thing && i don`t know what kind of disc i`ll need or how to do this. so if you could please help that would be amazing. i know it might be alot of work but please i want to have this done for familyy

For music you go to File, import into collection, then find your song from your computer. And click import. You do this for each song you want. Then you select the song from your collection and drag it to the audio/music timeline.

To save it you can go to File/ save movie file, and follow the wizard. You can it on a regular CD-R

what are some different bands that aren't really heard about that much? i like bands like brand new and manchester orchestra -but i'm not too picky. i like indie, screamo, expiremental, etc. (anything really) any others that not every body has heard every song by them yet? that'd be great!
ps. i've tried to look around and not really much luck.

You could always go to this site
http://www.imeem.com

set up a profile and make a playlist(even if you just want one song) and then it can give you a code to put it on your myspace. Paste the code where ever you want.
