Comment On & Rate The Above Song

[nam97]

Awesome as usual by Jimi and probably better than Chuck's version. Let's face it, anything ever covered by Hendrix is better than the original. 10/10.

ahh 2 of my favorite musicions - petty and harrison. im never sure if i like this song. parts of it i do. parts of it i dont. the start really bugs me, in particular. but what a supergroup. and half of them are dead now! 7/10

Yeah I feel the same way about that one too actually. Parts of it are quite irritating the more you hear it, and if you listen to Hauraki all the time that can be up to as much as 3 times a day (one of things I dislike about Hauraki, always the same ****, you never a hear a new song <_< ).

Cool song by the Doors, I do like them but am not familiar enough with all their work to judge this one properly. So compared to the stuff I do know of them I'd say a solid 8/10.

Here's a bit of Golden Earing with Radar Love;

Nothing really new or exciting here, but there's Laeticia Casta so that's a 5/10.


Some heavyweight stuff here. One of the geniuses of 20th century. quality of sound is a bit crap though. The interplay, the technique, the solos, everything is just perfect in this track.

****, that's almost fifty years ago. I don't have the ear to appreciate Coltrane, but you can hear the influence he had on rock music right up to the early 70s. What gets me is the drumming - where the **** is the dude going ... oh yeah!

Didn't enjoy the flute solo, so 9/10.

Here's how white guys (mostly) did it in the exact same year (4:21):

Who was the more toasted?

 

[Charles]

Shtove, Elvin Jones was one of the most creative, and technical drummer ever. His work on this piece is just magnificent. So much flow and swing, I never tire of it.

Sorry to jump back a few posts but they are an outstanding group, that is one of my favourite songs and tom petty is the messiah

 

[KZNSharksFan]

Learning to Fly- Pink Floyd = outstanding

great song - 8/10.
pink floyd are so diffrent between their lead members style of music. i personally dont like syd barrets stuff - i found it too conceptual. love waters and think he is a god, but now and again, i chuck on a gilmore track, like this one, dogs of war, on the turning away, or take a break from his solo album, and really enjoy it.


heres a band that i loved seeing play a couple of years ago
woman from tokyo - deep purple

[gingergenius]

not bad, not really my scene but they can play their instruments well 6.5/10.

Peeping Tom - Mojo

 

[sambãd5]

has nothing on what faith no more was. but still not a bad song, 6/10.

Ordinary song - was thinking Sweet Home Alabama to start with, but it never kicked off.

Liked the vid - Kim Bassinger's most animated performance ever! And was the last scene a reference to that film from the 50s, with the murdering preacher - Robert what'sizname?

5/10.

Mad World - Donnie Darker version (3:19). Couldn't turn on the radio in Ireland a few years ago without hearing this. I prefer the original, but the simple arrangement brings out the lyrics, and the final image of the vid is so good, with the kids playing along the street.

 

[nam97]

I love that song, 10/10. This is the same composer (Michael Andrews) who wrote the music that is on that car ad where all the cars are let into the sky over London with balloons.

Funnily enough, this one features on Donnie Darko also;

9.5/10. Awesome, gotta love EATB.

Jedi Mind Tricks & R.A. The Rugged Man - Uncommon Valor (A Vietnam Story)

quite possibly the best hiphop track of recent years. Check out RA's lyricism (2nd verse)

Wow - that's a mouthful of lyrics. Are they from London or New York? Prefer if they'd written about Iraq and how it's fcuking up the US.

The music is OK, but the delivery is powerful - the bit ending American guerillas + the God gives and takes at the end. What's scampling?

9/10.

Jedi Mind Tricks are from Philly, RA is from New York. He's some f***ed up white dude, been around forever but no one took any notice cos normally he's far too disgusting.

6/10. Not actually that bad, his flow is **** but his lyrics are quite clever..


IM is sick when you're high..
Infected Mushroom - Disco Mushroom

 

[nam97]

Hmmm.... bit too techno-y/electronic IMO. I love trip hop like DJ Shadow, Massive Attack... for example, which is about as close as I get to this kind of stuff. 4/10 anyway, not the right guy to judge properly.

Here's a classic from Emerson, Lake & Palmer;

Sorry, not for me. I've heard of them, and I guess that's their greatest song, but a bit bland for my tastes and I couldn't figure out why he was such a "lucky man". Guess you have to be stoned!

And what's with the images? Pure, stinky cheese!

5/10.

A last visit to Weird Al Yankowic - I'm not a fan of his and I do apologise, but this is the funniest intertubes find I've had all week: a **** take on ebay that finds some use for the Backstreet Boys (3:28):

"A used pink bathrobe/A rare, mint snowglobe/A smurf TV tray.
What I bought on ebay.
My house is filled with this crap/Shows up in bubble wrap ..."

and so on.

Never been a huge fan of Weird Al- 5/10. That was funny though

This is Dire Straits with "Going Home", one of my favourite instrumental pieces
