Rate That Song

6. That one failed to move me like some of her other stuff. Well, okay, I felt it move a little bit.

This one always moves me. Similarly, it’s from before our time, and another song about lost love:

Ella Fitzgerald, Begin the Beguine:

Bravo, Sancho, Bravo. That woman had the voice of an angel. I’ll give Ella 10 out of 10 only because an 11 would be mathematically ambiguous.

Thanks, Sancho. What say we change gears? Here’s a little number by Fatboy Slim, Weapon of Choice. I love the look of pure bliss Christopher Walken wears as he dances on the table.

Blocked in France. Sry El Sanch.

Ah, a little bit boring for me, and I don't understand much apart from j't'aime: 4/10

Die Antwoord: Fatty Boom Boom http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIXUgtNC4Kc Not my favorite but it's ...interesting...

It's... Honestly not that funny. It's just kind of annoying. 1.5/5

The Distance - Tonedeff

2/10. That guy should post on the poetry board here.

Eh... It just doesn't make me feel all that strongly, maybe it's just because I don't understand the language. 5/10

The Singing Sea

Neh. 4/10.

I just discovered a Welsh version of Rush, I'm loving them:

It's not bad, it is a lot like 80s Rush, 6/10.

Since Silas posted Die Antwoord, I'll post a different South African Band:

Not my taste, but I would rate it 6/10.

Might be a popular ONE, but it so good.....

3/10, shove it Bono!

10/10 Jack, you sex kitten. What are you doing later?

Stop it, Jack. This is a literature forum and that's an unwanted sexual advance.

Wow, probably the only time that sentence will ever be uttered...

1. Jack, Jack, Jack. Yuk. El Sancho would rather have his balls pounded flat with a wooden mallet than have to listen to phony tough-guy music. So, let us all try to forget Trace Atkins now, and move along to something else.

Every time I think Rock-n-Roll is dead, a couple of guys come along who can raise the freakin’ roof:

The Black Keys, Lonely Boy

I discovered the Black Keys about six months ago, and I was delighted. 9/10


I've been drooling.

You’ll never get an argument out of me when you’re crankin’ some Zep’. In fact, just the other day I got into a stereo war with a guy in the car next to me at a stop light; He was thumping out Hip Hop from a pair of subwoofers that were more powerful than his Honda engine, and I was blasting Zeppelin from a pair of speakers nowhere near as powerful as my 455cu V8.

I won.

A-! The A is for the full-throttle, balls-to-the-wall, Rock-N-Roll. And the minus is for (allegedly) ripping off so many riffs from guys on the Chitlin’ Circuit and never really ‘fessing up to it.

Okay then, The Powerball (that’s the lottery for you non-US Litnetters) is up to something like a half BILLION dollars for Wednesday’s drawing.

And…You can buy a ticket at the local grocery store, and pray, 4-11-44.

The Blasters, 4-11-44
