It seemed a little drawn out to me. I wanted to say to him "dude, every syllable doesn't have to last a full four-count".
That said, it's not terrible. 4/10
Here's one from the 'mats.

Love the ol' Bosstones. But, this one of my least favorite songs by them, probably due mostly to hearing it innumerable times when it was a hit. Still, 6.5/10.
Really getting to love Dvorak. Also love watching this composer as he can't help but sing along.
Dvorak is good stuff, even if I can only take late Romantic composers in small doses 8/10.
Here is the sound of the American West, as composed by a gay Russian Jew.

That gave me a chuckle.
I do like this piece, only if I can disassociate myself from all its commercial use, which is tough. When I can, though, it's a 8/10.
I must admit, though, I like this version better--probably a blasphemous statement to the classical community.
Quite jolly, considering. 6/10
Another adaptation of a classic, from the days when a keyboard player couldn't get into any decent parties unless he'd rearranged The Valkyries for glockenspiel and moog.
Personally, I think this one's a bit feeble and bloodless.

7/10. I was proud of myself for knowing it was from Holst's Planets Suite, Jupiter in particular.
My other favorite version of Hoedown. (Song starts at around 2:00 if you want to get right to it.)
Never listened to that type of music before. They were really good. 9/10
My daughter used to listen to Bollywood music and watch the films, which is where I came across this version.

Sorry, but just not my thing, in any language. Though, I liked that it didn't take itself seriously and realized what it was: a goofy pop song, so I'll be really generous: 5/10.
I'm glad you liked Bela, Paul. I like to describe them as bluegrass jazz fusion. If there's another band out there like them, I haven't found 'em. The put on an absolutely amazing show, and their bass player is possibly the best alive.
Here's another of theirs, an original and a personal favorite.
Very good. they are excellent players. 9/10
The name Big Country reminded me of these. They didn't do as much as they might have done.

I've always liked that song. 8.5/10

I've not heard that one by Ozzy before. He's a laugh isn't he. 8/10 - good metal sound.
I haven't listened to this for a while. It takes me back to teen parties I used to go to. It was always on.

Not bad. 6/10.
This song because it's currently playing on my Pandora. It's a long one--here's part 2.
Boy, that is a long one! I'm going with seven-tenths because I enjoyed the intro.
Next one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qs1bG...ist=QL&index=2
Interesting. 5/10.
