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!

No need to apologise, if everyone had the same taste in music the World would be a soulless, tedious place!

A bit like that last song you posted.

I'll have you know that Channel Orange was one of the most critically acclaimed albums of 2012, thank you very much!

9/10 for Bobbie Gentry - really hits the spot.

Layla's a 9/10.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3RYvO2X0Oo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkUpfw4Hf3w

6/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWptXUblA4E

6.5/10. It was OK but fairly nondescript. Neither the singing nor the instruments really managed to captivate me.

This is quite long:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1N8BYNMMjqU

your right it is long but good 7.5/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRt3PIDER94

long? i didn't think anything wqas happening for 5 minutes! 8/10.

And now for something completely different

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gH3yqBW1AJ4&playnext=1&list=PLAB000CF22E137AA8&feature=results_video

Lovely voice (behind John Owen-Jones for me though as a Welsh great), pleasant song despite my lack of understanding - 7/10

Some old-school R and B now

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZFKeyGpgK0

liked that 7/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0G-iC6fHSU

haha is it wrong to fancy a cartoon 8/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5Xl0Qry-hA

Always makes me paranoid that song 7/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKkAYqglXA4&list=FLUhBK7qug4GbJnlgp9-WA1w&index=2

I love the Overtones 8/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwPJtYIzzKA

I have one of their albums- really like their covers, which do what covers should do- NOT copy the original. 8/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ogGAiyjMNY

9/10

Can't beat a bit of James Brown music!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEK2YCz9-IQ&list=FLUhBK7qug4GbJnlgp9-WA1w&index=44

7/10, pretty good. Something I also noticed on your playlist now

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_wOCQ8f_Dg

9/10

It's on my pre-rugby playlist (Well was lol)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JbeyWN1DhA

good song 9/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSnQ0bdHW0s

9/10. Absolute classic here, though I'm a fan of the Yardbirds version too

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCA0E5ly9dc

I dont mind that although do prefer the original 6.5/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAuoNa5g6i8

Ah, see I dislike the original quite a lot!

Great song choice, Kenny. Cilla can have a harsh voice sometimes, but other times it can be soft and beautiful. And there aren't many bad Bacharach / David songs! 8/10.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJGePRE8ZyA

i liked that , never really heard of him before but he has a good sound 8/10

One from my teens now , never grew out of this style of music for my sins

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c56vEgA4fjU

10/10!

Personifies a ballard that song!!!! , great tune!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErvgV4P6Fzc

Similer sort of song.

my favourite GnR song 10/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkXNEmtf9tk

8/10 one of GNR's better songs (not quite November Rain though)

And now for something a little different

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BHyfYiBt5o

Ah beaten to it...

very funny 8/10... even though I don't really want to know all that detail!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEY8clFcm2E

That's as close to a perfect song as you can get. The production, the instrumentation, the melody... it's a pearl. 9.5/10.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bowxwxfHat4

MOULTY!

7 /10 not really my cup of tea though

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZXLLMbJdZ4

It's been played to death, but it's a great little pop song. The only slight blemish is that the bass player went on to form Cast, who I thought were gash. 8/10.

Here's another of theirs:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bzxpWob71M

7/10

Sounds like it should be on a TV advert but still catchy none the less


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCeiefp4ta8

6/10 catchy but very sickly and boybandy.

http://m.youtube.com/watch?client=mv-rim&hl=en-GB&gl=GB&feature=related&rl=yes&v=pgKApEnBXcA

6/10 not really for me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-fX0UbpZls

OK, a bit too tinny for me 6/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Veq6hW2-kqQ

7 / 10 nice voice

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDZFf0pm0SE

Awesome. The recorded version is a classic, but that's something else. He's a natural genius. 9/10.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IykU1Tmb6Yo

Groovy pop that, proper disco riffy thing in the background too 7/10. Not a great vid though!
