For real? Is there actual proof to back up that statement? Or is it only based on the fact that Rammstein's song "Heirate Mich" is part of a somewhat important scene on "Lost Highway"? The video for the single "Rammstein" was also directed by mr. Lynch, right? It's obvious that Lynch uses music on his films to get a point across -most of the times, the songs on Lynch's work pretend to communicate something very important within the narrative of the film, and it's apparent that Lynch's idea must be that sometimes a song can provide more powerful context to certain scenes than dialogue could ever do.

Assuming he uses music by artists he likes, it can be gathered that he's a fan a Roy Orbison ("In Dreams" and "Crying", albeit the last one in Spanish, both have appeared on Lynch's work), Julee Cruise (she sang David Lynch's songs on "Blue Velvet" and "Twin peaks"...), Connie Stevens ("Sixteen Reasons" is on "Mulholland Drive"), Bobby Vinton ("Blue Velvet"), Linda Scott ("I've Told Every Little Star" appears also on a scene in "Mulholland Drive"), David Bowie (he stars as agent Jeffries on "Fire Walk With Me", and "I'm Deranged" is on the soundtrack to "Lost Highway"...), Jimmy Scott (What the hell did he do to end up on the Black Lodge?), etcetera, etcetera... Anyway, he could even be considered a fan of Marilyn Manson, which i would suppose most would consider a dull act in this board, and in most other places to be fair. Remember that mr. Lynch wrote the introduction to Manson's biography "The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell"; there were rumours that Manson would have appeared as a recurring member of the cast on "Mulholland Drive" had it been approved as a TV series by the NBC. He acted on the porn scene in "Lost Highway", directed by David Lynch, however. Seems like admiration would run both ways, i remember a reference to "Twin Peaks" on Manson's song "Wrapped In Plastic" mentioned to me by a friend a bunch of years ago -Hearing the song spoiled much of the series for her, as she found out who Laura Palmer's killer was through that specific song. A book compiling some of Marilyn Manson's paintings is soon to be released, and allegedly some of the reverend's morbid artwork has been inspired by David Lynch's work.

So, anyway, despite his deep involvement and references to a lot of diverse music; it still remains ambiguos who actually is David Lynch's definitive favorite band or musician (other than Lissie), but if you, fugazifan, or someone else, for that matter, can provide a link to some interview or some sort of article where he claimed Rammstein was, i would be very much interested in reading that, and would appreciate it if you'd hook me up with such information. I love his work, and i've got some fascination with him. This branch of his personal taste is pretty much unknown to me, but i'd always like to learn new things, no matter how unimportant they might seem.

Here are some random shenanigans where he's interviewed on the subject of music, and mentions some artists he likes:
  • Personal play-list: David Lynch
    ZZ-Top, John Lee Hooker, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Au Revoire Simone, Lissie, and Lady Gaga all get positive words from Lynch in this interview.
    http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/musi...vid-lynch.html
  • David Lynch on KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic
    A chat about his recently released music: "Good Day Today", and "I Know", which he describes as "Modern Blues... with a lot of soul". Has good things to say about electronic music. Pays due respect and praise to Sparklehorse and Danger Mouse, and also to his longtime partner in crime, Angelo Badalamenti (He says, "Angelo Badalamenti brought me into the world of music").
    http://www.kcrw.com/music/programs/m...118david_lynch
  • Danger Mouse & David Lynch discussing "Dark Night Of The Soul" on KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic:
    http://www.kcrw.com/music/programs/m...118david_lynch
David Lynch also is a regular user of twatter. I've copied and pasted some random posts by him, related to the subject of music:
  • Get the music to marry to the picture
  • Seeing Pink Floyd on Youtube, singing Comfortably Numb
  • Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart
  • John Lee Hooker, Elvis Presley and Jimmy Hendrix.
  • My favorite instrument is guitar.
  • I was brought into the world of music by Angelo Badalamenti, but Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse gave me an opp. to work on DNOTS
  • No, I don't like the sound of my own voice
  • All pop is magical
  • Lissie is head & shoulders above anything I've heard in a long time. Incredible, incredible stuff.
  • The bass player is right on the money & plays kick drum & hi-hat while he plays bass, just perfection. Lead guitar: perfection.
  • I've fallen in love with Lisse, especially the live sessions including the cover of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance: http://bit.ly/bwOIHp
  • And Lissie's cover of Metallica's Nothing Else Matters, Lissie's When I'm Alone, Little Lovin & all her live sessions.

Sorry for the long-ass post. I should start to look around for a girlfriend, or something.


EDIT: I'm a thread-killer, uh?

i just saw this now so sorry for the late reply

according to imdb they are his favorite band

Vague statement over there. It doesn't matter too much to me as my long post might imply. Thanks for replying, though.

He's also a fan and mentor of Chrysta Bell (I once again recommend anyone to investigate Chrysta's work if they already haven't).

A-list playlist: The favourite music of your favourite celebrities
By Emma Jones, March 21, 2012

- Don Cherry - "has outed himself. . . as a Deadmau5 fan"
- Miley Cyrus - "is a bit of a hipster music snob, opting for the musical teachings of John Lennon, Bon Iver and Jon Foreman"
- Kristen Stewart - "brazenly admitted that her "theme song" is Miley Cyrus' 'The Climb' "
- Kevin Spacey - "is a fan of Ol' Blue Eyes himself, Frank Sinatra"
- Carrie Underwood - "owes her passion for country music to only one person: the late, great Mel McDaniel."
- Michael Sheen - "has a penchant for Tim Buckley and, in particular, his solemn 1970 release 'Song to the Siren.' "
- Katy Perry - "Kitty Purry's all-time favourite song is Queen's 'Killer Queen' "
- Rihanna - "has a soft spot for rock, counting Aerosmith and Paramore among her favourites" / "is a major fan of fellow Caribbean Bob Marley" / "she inked "Thug Life" across her knuckles" (a tattoo tribute to Tupac Shakur)
- The Cast of Glee - "Agron is a fan of both the classics (Dylan and Daniel Johnston) and the indies (Bon Iver and Passion Pit) / Salling [...] likes guitarists Dimebag Darrell and Tim Reynolds / "Ushkowitz listens to charttoppers Kings of Leon, Adele and Britney Spears." / "McHale loves everything and everyone from Green Day to Boyz II Men to Radiohead."
- Tom Hanks - when he was asked about his favorite song of the year in 2009: "the Beyoncé song. . .because it's infectious," referring to Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It.)
- Matthew McConaughey - "favourite artists include Bob Marley, Lauryn Hill, Robbie Robertson and, of course, Mishka."
- Ellen Degeneres - besides dance and hip-hop "also enjoys Sade, My Morning Jacket and The Rollin Stones"
- Steve Martin - "jumps from rock to folk to classic" / "lists [bluegrass artists] Steve Goodman, Flatt & Scruggs and The Punch Brothers as his favourites"
- Michael Bublé - "The Beastie Boys and Harry Connick Jr. dominated the Crazy Love crooner's childhood"
- Hayley Williams (lead vocalist of Paramore) - "is a pretty big fan of '80s rock band The Smiths and their leader Morrisey"
- Sean Combs - his favorite song is "It's Like That" by Run DMC
- Lady Gaga - "is a huge Iron Maiden fan"


"It's fair to say that Gaga is one hard-working lady. She's dominated the charts for the past three years, harnessed the power of social media and is still finding time to fight for equal rights. Gaga is an inspiration to her Little Monsters but who inspires Gaga? Surprisingly, Mother Monster is a huge Iron Maiden fan, joining the group on tour last year and taking part in all kinds of roadie duties (according to reports, she even waived the $90-a-day lackey fee).

Gaga's musical tastes are pretty diverse. She told VH1 that Morrissey's Years of Refusal was one of her favourite albums of 2009. She's also a big fan of Grace Jones' 2008 album Hurricane. Sadly for Gaga, Morrissey and Jones don't share her admiration. When asked why she turned down a collaboration with the poker faced one, Grace Jones told The Guardian: "I'd just prefer to work with someone who is more original and someone who is not copying me, actually. . . I really don't think of her at all. . . I wouldn't go see her." Meanwhile, Morrissey had this to say to Billboard when questioned about Gaga's popularity: "[i]t is nothing new. I like the idea of women who are in full control, but I am tired of seeing singers who cannot deliver a song without the aid of seven hundred and fifty frenzied dancers assuming the erotic. It is actually fraudulent..."

I hate seeing backup dancers too. It is shit. I automatically assume the music is shit if you need to have such a lavish presentation of crap that has nothing to do with your music. MC HAMMER anyone?

Dude. you have it so fucking backwards. Do you know how hard it is to actually choreograph? I'm not talking necessarily about some Janet Jackson background dancers BUT...

Look at how Raphael Saadiq's backup singers are choreographed do dance like it was 1960s Mo-Town or James Brown?

Even Bruno Mars band impressed me, all those dudes playing instruments including horns while having decent choreography? I didn't diminish their music, neither imply their music was already too diminished, it enhances the performance. Its called a "stage-show" for a reason, not everybody can just stand there quietly like Hope Sandoval

don;t give a flying fuck about the difficulty. I go to hear MUSIC performed. Not to see a fucking dance show. save that shit for another night. As longa s you are playing an instrum,ent or singing, dance your ass off. If you are just a crew of dancers to draw attention away from the shit dancing of the "star" or to embellish a boring stage show? fuck them. hate that shit.

People dance to music. Further, if the musicians or singers are also dancing, that is an added skill to their performance of that said music. Its not easy to play guitar and perform synchronized dance moves. Its not easy to do that playing a horn. Its not even easy doing that while singing backing vocals. So stop being so crass, your dissing skilled artists. Further, why diss dance crews even if they perform with crap pop music? That shouldn't negate their talent as dancers just because rob can't dance. Besides, I'm sure some of them have derrieres you fancy gawking at, enjoy the show
