Rate the song above you

First topic message reminder :

The aim of this thread is that I will post a YouTube link up to a song that I am a fan of. The next person that comments rates the song out of ten and then puts his own link up and so on and so on! Hope it picks up, its a way for everyone to be introduced to others music tastes!

Sheesh. How much longer do we have to deal with kids, appreciating proper musak, thro 21st century, coca-cola, yank, burger ads. Bless em. Don't they have a brain of their own?
Make yer own musak mofos. No imagination. So stop shaggin, riding, abusing, re-vamping, re-selling - OUR music. Kunst.

Not voting on the last one in protest. Phhoke de lot of ye.

First off, if you check my age you'll see I'm far from being a "kid".

Second, my comment about the yogurt ad was part tongue-in-cheek and part valid reference as to why I'm not keen on the song. Also, I'm not big on soul music or stuff with Hammond organs in.

Thirdly, I have pretty varied tastes in music and in all probability listen to a lot stuff you've never heard of (music that never makes the charts).

Fourthly, I do make my own music (of sorts) being fairly average guitar player.

Thank you...

Mr Wolfe,
1st off - my ajolopies for said remarks. I mean, don't get me wrong, I meant them. But in a different context.
Respect. And large amounts of quality vino involved.

.
This is for da Wolfe.

They've had some good tunes, the Charlatans. They've borrowed a bit too obviously from the Stones at times, but still. 7/10.

The first picture looks like John Linnell from They Might be Giants (or is it John Flansburg).

Anyway - bit dreary but I can see why Charlie Manson would like it - 60's Hippie chic!

by dyrewolfe Mon 21 Nov 2011, 10:53 pm

Unusual piece. Not bad, but a little on the melancholy side and not something I'd listen to by choice. Rating: 5/10

Dunno why but I prefer classical pieces that are either uplifting or just loud (1812 Overture etc.)

I never get tired of hearing this:

Vivaldi - Four Seasons (Spring)

Also particularly like Winter too (like Spring much-used on TV).

by Luckless Pedestrian Tue 22 Nov 2011, 12:29 pm

Vivaldi's 'The Four Seasons' is fantastic music. Ubiquitous now, but still beautiful. 9.5/10.

9/10 Great song. I was in a pub quiz once and there was a question on which great rock band had a song called Hush. Muppet in my team "Oh, oh, easy, I know that one, it's Kula Shaker" Erm

He got some stick for that for some time after. laughing

Got me in the mood for some Hendrix.

Seeing as the lovely man above decided to go for an instrumental piece.

Hmm. If I were Lisa Simpson I might like that, but jazz really isn't my bag, daddy-o. I'll give it 6/10 as its at least mellow and not that horrible fast, atonal stuff.

Here's a prog metal classic to get yer lugholes around:

Dream Theater - Pull Me Under

This is the shortened music video version and not the full album version (which is about 8 minutes long!).

Here's the "full fat" version:

4/10 for Love Will Tear Us Apart?
You should be banned for taking part in this! Wink

6/10 for that Supergrass track, think they were a band that improved as they went along.

It's been played to death and I genuinely don't think it's a good song. If you'd put up 'She's Lost Control' I'd have given it an eight.

Ah, now 'Goddess on a Hiway' is a wonderful song. The whole of Deserter's Songs is great. 8.5/10.
