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!

He's a good mate of mine Gibbo. An Armagh man!

8/10 have recently started listening to waits but not my favourite song.

Sorry Boss, must be honest. I just changed that one to a Joni number bro.

Its beautiful.

I dont blame the drugs. I blame the parents. And the drugs.

See that song by de way? Swine that ye are. Its a repro. Null pwah darlin. Love you long time still.

Love Van de Man.

This will be himself.

Ding ding ding 10/10 love van the man!

Which song's a repro?

Dubliners mood sir! Luke Kelly is the king.

Ah would ye phookin stop man. One of the greatest love songs ever. 10/10.

Dylan aspired to his level. And failed. Genius.

Howanever, this is the greatest love song ever. Don't argue with me punters. It just is.

God Bless J.J Cale.

9/10 1st time I've heard that but that's great!

Remember walking home from a nightclub in Belfast with an absolute princess singing Raglan Road on Botanic. Christ she was the one!

https://youtu.be/3ZRWba6rHmo
That's a love song now.

7.5/10 not a fan but definitely like that style

Can't believe there's no music video for this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOTjqYq7uKA

not a bad song 7/10

Not too bad 6/10

by Gibson Wed 30 Oct - 23:58

I think the white-nigga should be shot with a ball of his own pretentious white-thrash shoite. Its not music, its garbage.

Its offensive. It attacks anyone with an ear or a brain, or even both.

The very reason art exists.

Love the fact that it can even happen. It singularly disproves Evolution. Total and utter, mindless, shoite. 10/10.

Gibbo, when you're good, you're epic.

by kingraf Mon 4 Nov - 8:57

cheeky use of the 'n-word' Gibby... But you have captured the "essence" of the song, and music quite perfectly. Agree with your assessment of what is really a bad, yet thrilling track.

My pick is also an Eminem song, here's the "prequel" of the song -
www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQ9_TKayu9s&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DRQ9_TKayu9s

and the 2013 re-addressing of the matter

by ChequeredJersey Mon 4 Nov - 12:54

Wow

10/10, Eminem just getting stronger and the sentiment is amazing. It fits in with this album being a sequel to the MMLP

by The Boss Sat 9 Nov - 17:36

10/10 CJ that was class. Love that man!

https://youtu.be/bGMPUYfVw20 maybe a touch irish folky for some.

Bog standard "anguish pop" in the video for me I'm afraid, Hornblower. 5/10... but only just.

I, however, am a Pink Floyd fan, so try some of this:

Taken from the classic "Pulse" tour, at Earls Court. I was there.

Nearly twenty years on, my daughter is still scared of the pigs. LMAO.

Love the song and the sentiment that comes with it Da. Grand. 9/10.

I will give maximum marks to any song put forward by a chap who has named himself after a guitar. Well done sir. Kudos to you..!!

I now thinking of changing my screenie to Stratocaster.

by Luckless Pedestrian Fri 6 Dec - 13:16

You know you're supposed to post a song yourself, right?

by **Pal Joey** Fri 6 Dec - 23:27

Here's one in the meantime.

6/10 bit too 80s for me fella.

https://youtu.be/1AOp9c5DRzc

by **Pal Joey** Tue 10 Dec - 20:48

Nice little ditty but a bit too folksy for me. Great pictures though. 7/10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObG9bBJFcIM

by The Boss Tue 10 Dec - 22:02

8/10 I liked that more than I thought I would

https://youtu.be/J-ZN7NyPfb4

by Luckless Pedestrian Sun 15 Dec - 12:05

That wasn't bad. The singer sounds a bit like Rod Stewart on the high notes. I don't know what the rest of their stuff is like, but it strikes me as a strange choice for a single. It's solid, but unremarkable. 6.5/10.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fsbtf2Us2Y

by Holymiky Fri 20 Dec - 14:12

I enjoyed the song 8/10.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vx4tolLVL4o

by The Boss Fri 20 Dec - 20:31

5/10 I'm not a fan of rap and the white fella at the start should have been told to f£&@ off

https://youtu.be/ERWREcPIoPA

by The Fourth Lion Sat 21 Dec - 6:19

Not bad. I give it a 7 / 10, but if we're doing Billy Joel songs, then this is the one I liked best from the "Innocent Man" album. It's brought back many a memory to old rock 'n rollers.

Daft video though if you want to skip the silly stuff, the music kicks in at around 1 minute 20 sec.

7/10, not bad.

My 4 year old son loves this next song!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Lwe_sSRxKQ

by Gibson Mon 30 Dec - 19:53

Musically, its not my cuppan tae. But, its brilliantly put together. The fusion of music and action, rocks. Yer son knows this... 7/10.

This is the genius that was Stevie Wonder, before he found out he was black. Live performance too... soo tight. The whole band were spiraling together. Man. Whaank material.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ul7X5js1vE

by **Pal Joey** Mon 30 Dec - 21:17

Musically, you've funked my day Gibbo. Ten.

Here's a weird one. It mightn't suit some folks but it's our 70's surf music... with a raw edge.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIDwG12ZtE0

by Gibson Mon 30 Dec - 23:04

Oh Im lovin it big man. My kind of 70's musak. 9/10.

Happy Christmas an ting to you and those you love, sir. Love da bones of ya.

Pour toi.
