INXS???
Oh I see what's happened - I was going through things from my sister's record collection, and ah, yeah I agree - but how did you manage a whole '3'?
Anyway - Glorious mono aside Elvis still has his attractions, um, briliance shines through like the sun on an overcast yuotebu day - 8.5/10
This is what I'd meant to submit:

Sorry, MM, really didn't like that one. At all. 2/10 (an extra point because the singer was hot)
Did I already post this song? I don't care, I can't get enough of it.

You do get that it was a joke song, right?Originally Posted by MystyrMystyry
What th' what th' what th'!!!
Look at it again - Wendy's a 10/10 alone in anyone's lingo
Listen to the song - she's not singing 'I love you, Baby' - and she's not asking for your love - she's demanding it! Demanding it because she knows she deserves it!
The arrangement's a classic, the underlying metaphor in the second verse is-
I digress
The next got a 1/10 for the joke - I'd like to hear others opinions but at the same time I wouldn't want them wasting bandwidth on it
Mutatis' gets a 7 due to a certain nostalgic air it stirs in me though I can't quite place it
This next is - at least amongst particular circles - an unrivaled megastar of early nineties techno-ness (it meant disparate things to many different experimenters back then)

I get the rating, it's just that your analysis seemed to be taking it seriously
Not seriously - just not the funniest joke - jokes in music have been around since music has - jokes within forms of music are everywhere - jazz jokes, blues jokes, rock jokes, even folk jokes
None particularly funny - why are you worrying about it?
Hmmmm. Techno. Never been a fan. I did like some of the videos The Crystal Method put out on MTV when I was a youngin'; they were fun to watch and the music was fun to listen to, but only for about 3 minutes or so. But 10? I guess it's good for what it is, though, so 4/10.
Speaking of musical jokes, this guy was one of, if not the first musical jokesters. At 0:38 he throws in a quite startling not that would definitely make one jump if they weren't ready for it.
Oh, Haydn, you incorrigible scamp. Pull the screens round and call the nurse - I appear to have split my sides.
5/10
Binary solo....
Haha, they're great. Cool intro in this version. 9/10.
In keeping with the theme.

10/10 'cause I would have Bruce McCulloch's babies.

I've never understood the appeal of Kids in the Hall. They always struck me as trying way too hard to be the next Monty Python, and failing horribly. 1/10.
I'm feeling angry for no particular reason.
One of the comments was perfect when applied to DEP: "It's the complete opposite of easy listening. You cannot be a lazy listener; it demands that you turn on your brain and leave it on for the whole experience. Absolute genius music."
Me too, now. 2/10

(I read the lyrics, I watched the album cover, I saw the comments and now I'm as confussed as ever - a very quiet whispery 7.5 because I might be wrong)

I've always thought that Pink Floyd is sort of like acne: it's an ugly phase we all have to deal with. . . that at the time seems so important, but upon reflection is pretty insignificant.
