    And, I don't have time to properly listen to the above song, so I'll let someone else rate it. I will later when I have more time if it still hasn't been.
    Ditto. But to be fair, it seemed pretty sincere.

    Getting things back on track:

    Sounds a bit too much like the Cars meet the Cure. Still, better than most crap out there. 5/10.

    Getting a little bluesy with it:

    Always been a KWS fan. 8/10.

    I just can't get enough of Holst.

    7/10 - beautiful. Just not in the mood for it right now, so just 7



    Everyone will thank me for this next one. This is really good and I recommend that everyone experience this. It will make your life better. You will wish that you could have these next 3 minutes back just so that you can go back and experience it for the first time all over again. The time that went into composing this, and putting it together was well spent and we should be thankful for their efforts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD2LRROpph0

    Second posting of that masterpiece. I can't even give it accolades for being so bad it's funny; that only happens on the first listen. .0001/10

    I need a palate cleanser.

    Pretty impressive, but I felt it kind've meandered a little too much. 7/10

    The human Air Raid Siren is as good solo as he is with Maiden:

    Hair's not long enough, and the sound on the particular clip is too flat (over-compression=bad) 7/10


    cop the line-up of talent - count at least one drummer who can also sing clearly (and at the same time), at least one double-necked '70's space-axe, at least one Joe Walsh, at least one extended dual guitar solo at 4.00, at least one song that counts as poetry, and at least one beard

    Love The Eagles and it's one of my faves of theirs - 9/10

    Good thing someone else rated "Hotel California," because doing so would've forced me to rant about the horrible music that is produced when a band completely sells out.

    As to the above song--save a few, I just can't get into that meandering, seemingly aimless, repetitive sound a lot of rock bands choose to go with. It sort of sounded like a heavier version of many indie bands that flood the music scene these days. 5/10.

    Costello is a genius. It sounds like such a cheery tune until one reads the lyrics. (Oddly, I couldn't find this on YT, so hopefully Metacafe works for you.)

    Here're the lyrics, if you're so inclined.

    Ouch, my ears are suffering for that now. Costello must have chosen the cheery tune to represent the bright side of summer in contradiction to the bleak and ominous lyrics. Doesn't quite work for me though; I ain't feelin' it: 4/10

    Ummmmmmmm, I'm really not sure what to say. It was like a watered down, kiddie version of Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. 3/10.

    One of the 'core' bands I like.

    I don't really get where you see the similarity, besides the song being an instrumental.

    I'm torn. I like the song but I've never been a fan of the yelling lyrics as I can't sing along. 7/10
