Title: Your favorite songs
Post by: myuman on February 16, 2003, 06:42:00 pm
This is a dangerous topic... I'd like to see how some people handle this... please limit it to only three.  I'll start:<P>P.J. Harvey: this mess we're in<BR>Echo and the Bunneymen : Killing Moon<BR>Radiohead : anyone can play guitar<P>... I know a little T. Yorke here... but it's what came to mind.  I'll probably post again when I'm in a different mood.

Yeah, I know.  I started this thread and already I have other songs in mind... depending on mood, what side of the bed I get out of and so on.... in fact I think sometimes my favs on one day are horrible the next.  Heck I just listened to Ties that bind by springsteen and at times I would put that high up there.

Hmm...these three are among my favorites: <P>1.) Howlin Wolf- "Evil"<BR>Next to Sam Cooke, Howlin Wolf is my favorite male singer, and "Evil" is my favorite Howlin Wolf track. <P>2.) Joy Division- "Twenty Four Hours"<BR>Very bleak and intense. I dunno... maybe it's because of the weather today...<P>3.) Funkadelic- "Alice In My Fantasies" <BR>Excellent guitar riff and the vocals are over-the-top. I always have a copy of this with me at all times.

don't start me talking
 I could talk all night
 my mind goes sleepwalking
 while I'm putting the world to right
 called careers information
 have you got yourself an occupation
 
 CHORUS:
 oliver's army is here to stay
 oliver's army are on their way
 and I would rather be anywhere else
 but here today
 
 there was a checkpoint charlie
 he didn't crack a smile
 but it's no laughing party
 when you've been on the murder mile
 only takes one itchy trigger
 one more widow, one less white nigger
 
 chorus
 
 hong kong is up for grabs
 london is full of arabas
 we could be in palestine
 overrun by a chinese line
 with the boys from the mersey and the thames and the tyne
 but there's no danger
 it's a professional career
 though it could be arranged
 with just a word in mr. Churchill's ear
 if you're out of luck you're out of work
 we could send you to johannesburg
 
 oliver's army is here to stay
 oliver's army are on their way
 and I would rather be anywhere else
 but here today
 and I would rather be anywhere else
 but here today
 and I would rather be anywhere else

Title: Re: Your favorite songs
Post by: Barcelona on August 29, 2004, 09:50:00 pm
I would have to add "Red Army Blues" The Waterboys. Interesting note at the end of the song, taken from his official website.
 
 RED ARMY BLUES
 When I left my home and my family
 my mother said to me
 "Son, it's how many Germans you kill that counts
 Go set your country free"
 So I packed my bags and I brushed my cap
 and I walked out into the world
 Seventeen years old,
 never kissed a girl
 
 I took the train to Voronezh
 - that was as far as it would go
 Exchanged my sacks for a uniform,
 bit my lip against the snow
 I prayed for Mother Russia
 in the summer of '43
 and as we drove the Germans back
 I really believed God was listening to me
 
 Then we howled into Berlin,
 tore the smoking buildings down,
 raised the Red Flag high,
 burnt the Reichstag brown
 I saw my first American
 - he looked a lot like me
 He had the same kind of farmer's face,
 said he came from some place called Hazard, Tennessee
 
 When the war was over
 my discharge papers came
 Me and twenty hundred others
 went to Stettiner for the train
 "Kiev!" said the Commissar
 "from there your own way home"
 But I never got to Kiev
 We never came back home
 The train went north to the taiga
 We were stripped and marched in file
 up the Great Siberian road
 for miles and miles and miles and miles
 Dressed in stripes and tatters
 in a Gulag left to die
 all because Comrade Stalin feared
 that we'd become too westernized !
 
 I used to love my country
 I used to feel so young
 I used to believe that life
 was the best song ever sung
 I would have died for my country
 back in 1945
 but now only one things remains
 - the brute will to survive
 
 (Note. Years after this song was released I received a letter from a Russian man who said every word of the song was true except the line "It's not how many Germans you kill that counts, it's how many people you set free"(first verse). He told me "people went to the war to kill Germans". I realize that when I wrote the song I allowed youthful idealism to distort the sense and truth of the song with an out of context pacifist sentiment. I have now changed it. MS)

I'm warning you now before you go any further! I'm a classic rock fan. I'm probably correct in my assumption that that's a crime here, but who cares?

 Dream On- Aerosmith
 That Smell- Lynnrd Skynnrd

 Plush- Stone Temple Pilots
 Pepper- Butthole Surfers
 Breaking the girl- Red Hot Chili Peppers
 Radiohead- Karma Police
 
 Okay. The shooting gallery is now open and i have a huge bullseye on my chest. Do your worst.

this was quite the challenge...i have a running list of "perfect" songs, most of which end up toward the top of my favorites list. in fact, grotty's suggestion of "rocket queen" and tiny gee's "two-headed boy" just missed the cut for top three as did a couple of bowie tracks (rock and roll suicide or lady stardust), radiohead (no surprises), "lonely soul" by u.n.k.l.e. and richard ashcroft and, sadly enough, "superstar" by the carpenters. i'll probably regret this all day, but here they are:
 
 /1/ Velvet Underground - Sweet Jane
 
 /2/ Tom Waits - Ruby's Arms
 
 /3/ Built to Spill - Carry the Zero

Barcelona,
 I've never heard that band but those lyrics are powerful stuff.
 
 speaking of powerful I heard NWA's "F*ck the Police" the other night and for the first time in a long time really listened to the lyrics... that is one angry, powerful song... and sooo much more compelling than the usual contrived hip-hop bitches/hos/gangstas crap.
Title: Re: Your favorite songs

1. bob dylan - "boots of spanish leather"

 3. bob marley - "rebel music (3 o'clock road block)"
Title: Re: Your favorite songs

Happy to see that someone else likes Stan Getz and Joao Gilberto.  I too was quite fond of Boots of Spanish Leather until I heard Stuck Inside of Mobile.  Two very different songs, but both are well written.

1) Where'd you dig this oldie up from Doctor?!
 
 I had the strangest out-of-body experience perusing the topic - reading a list - liking it - & then realizing it was mine. From 1.5 years ago. Weird
 
 2) I feel compelled to acknowledge these very fine & brave choices:
 
 by Sugartastic Tee Flava:
 "Sexual Healing" Marvin Gaye.
 
 One of the GREATEST songs ever in my opinion. I even love all the cheesy covers that you routinely hear.
 
 by dtran9:
 Ryan Adams - To Be Young...
 Jeff Buckley - Last Goodbye
 Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out)
 
 All favorites of mine at one time.
 
 3) I can't believe that I didn't put any Afghan Whigs on my original list. Or any Catherine Wheel. Or possibly what has become my favorite song: Zip City by DBT.
 
 I did coincidentally, make a mix cd last evening - fueled by an over indulgence in Pinot Noir. It started as a full 80 min CDR of many of my favorite songs of the moment. I cut it down to about 45 minutes worth of tunes similar in tone: Dark - Moody - Weird. Perfect for late night listening. It's short, but o so sweet.
 
 So here are my favorites songs - on Sunday 8/29/04 - all together on one record for my eternal listening pleasure:
 
  At Least That's What You Said  ~ Wilco
  Esta Noche ~ Twilight Singers
  Hey    ~ the Pixies
  Young Liars  ~ TVOTR
  Leif Erickson  ~ Interpol
  All The Wine    ~ the National
  Hyperballad  ~ Twilight Singers
  Switching Off  ~ Elbow
  Hoover  ~ Holopaw
  Goddamn Lonely Love  ~ Drive-by Truckers
 
 I'd be happy to share the love if anyone would like to hear it.

it was weird to see that back in February '03 I listed "Crystal" by New Order as my favorite song.  Yes it's catchy but I hadn't thought about it since then... although now I'm thinking about it again.

spent half a life deciding what went wrong
 trying to find out what took you so long
 until you feel its all part of some crazy scheme
 that conjures in your memories til
 you discover whats behind that hill.
 
 you picked me up and we went for a ride
 into the stained glass cavern of the nite
 you turned to say, your eyes fixed on the rows,
 take me from this place i know
 the ruined landscape that i once called home..

Deep in the rain of sparks behind his brow
 Is a part replayed from a perfect day
 Teaching her how to whistle like a boy
 Loveâ??s first blush
 
 You, the only sense the world has ever made
 Early evening June
 This room and radio play
 This I need to save
 I choose my final scene today
 Switching off

I've read some good selections here.
 Some of my mellower or guilty pleasure choices: "Life in A Northern Town" Dream Academy. Can't help it, I do. And "Circle of Friends" Edie Brickell. "Imagine" John Lennon.
 On my initial list, the latter two could be replaced by The Kinks, Elvis Costello, Weezer or Prince, The Ramones, the list goes on. I went w/ what first came to mind. "Sexual Healing" is my #1 hands down.

 What do you think of this?
 Goddamn Lonely Love ~ Drive-by Truckers
 
 I think it's brilliant. Up there with the best they've done. I hadn't been a big Isbell fan until the latest. He steals the show though. They really captured magic on that tune.

I would agree that Isbell is the top Trucker on this album. All four of his songs are outstanding. Though I think "Never Gonna Change" is my current favorite.
 
 Gotta give credit to Cooley for singing a song about stock car racing, and to Patterson for rhyming two great lines that take me back to my rural youth; "lying sack of shit" and "sucking left hind tit".

 Singer Laura Branigan dies
 
 
 30/08/2004 - 15:49:21 American singer Laura Branigan has died from a brain aneurism at the age of 47.
 
 American singer Laura Branigan has died from a brain aneurism at the age of 47.
 
 The pop star, who found fame in the 1980s with hits Gloria and Self Control, died in her sleep at her home in East Quogue, New York on Thursday.
 
 Her brother says Branigan had complained of a headache for two weeks before her death, but had not sought medical help.
 
 The singer - who started out as a backing singer for legend Leonard Cohen - turned to acting after her musical career began to fade and won roles in TV hit Chips and films Mugsyâ??s Girl and Backstage.
 
 In one of her last roles she played Janis Joplin in New York stage musical Love, Janis.

What I didn't know was that she sang backup for Leonard Cohen. See, she must have had talent.

Post by: thirsty moore on August 30, 2004, 02:30:00 pm
Let's be honest here.  Leonard Cohen is excellent, but no one needs much of a vocal range to back that guy up.  Ben Stein could be a back up singer for Cohen.

1. La caccia, by Goblin ...This is from the DAWN OF THE DEAD(78) soundtrack.  It's from the scene when the SWAT guys are driving the trucks to block the mall doors.  Has a very triumphant feel.
 
 2.  Street Thunder, by John Carpenter off of the Assault on Precinct 13 (http://www.moviegrooves.com/shop/assaultonprecinct13.htm) soundtrack.  The entire disc has a wickedkewl urban-showdown feel to it.
 
 3.  Goldfinger, by Webb Wilder & The Nashvegans.  By far the best cover version of this kickass tune.

Those are just insane selections    :D    
 
 Looking forward to DoD 2004 dvd coming out in October. Those zombie flix always have good tunes. Like J Cash's  The Man Comes Around during the explanatory credits in DoD 2004

this could be done.  i spin at THE ASYLUM every other thursday (PARANOIA) and every friday (TRANSMISSION).  a lot of the stuff mentioned here, oddly enough, i play already at TRANSMISSION: JOY DIVISION, ECHO AND THE BUNNYMEN, U2, THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN, etc.  all it would take is for me to get some of the stuff i don't have on vinyl, and we could have a party.  KOSMO and MEDUSA could be guests.  
 
 something to think about...

"See a Little Light," Bob Mould
 "Spellbound," Siouxsie & the Banshees
 "The Headmaster Ritual," The Smiths
 
 Not sure 'cuz it's an impossible question, but they've stood the test of time and still make me swoon...

I was coming here to post that I have all three of my selections on vinyl so we're a go, but then the thought hit me, no way in hell are they leaving the house.

That'd be cool.
 Although...this thread has reminded me of "High Fidelity" -- when he calls the reporter to edit his Top 5 albums...
