    I don't mind the second two albums in their entirety when I'm in the rare mood, but they are the triumph of grim determination rather than great 7.5/10

    On that note:

    I like a lot of Queen songs, but not this one. Plus, this song is how Lady GaGa came up with her name, so we can thank it for that, too. 2/10.

    The lead singer's hair is epic.

    That was a great song! One of the best ever posted! 11/10.

    Melville lives on, even in metal.

    Leviathan is my favorite biblical... thing. 8/10

    I'm glad I don't live in your town 1/10

    Roxy's stuff was always a triumph of arrangement over content. Try playing that on an acoustic guitar. It just doesn't work. Like wot they do it, though, it's wonderful. 8/10


    From the same era.... 10cc can be really irritating, but they were also capable of some fabulous melodies and arrangements, of which this is one of my favourites. Ignore the rather trite and irrelevant video.

    I've always enjoyed 10cc. 7.5/10.

    More epic hair. (Don't miss the epic windmills at 4:22)

    I'm going to give that 2/10 because I thought it was a huge improvement on the book.


    Here's a band I haven't really considered for thirty-five years, and who turn out to be nothing like as funny or as tight as I remember. Still, there's something wonderfully straightfaced about them, and some affection remains, even though they are probably the direct ancestors of Opeth.

    Good sir, not only do you put on display a poor taste in music with that statement, but a poor taste in literature!

    As to your song, I like some of BOC's stuff. That isn't among it. 3/10.

    As to my previous song, it was incorrectly linked. You may have been asking, what epic hair? and been sorely dissapointed by the lack thereof.

    One wouldn't want to disappoint. (Again, epic windmill at 4:22. )

    I'm afraid I was. 2/10 for the intro. it went downhill from there.

    I saw this Guy on TV this morning. Great stuff.

    Seasick Steve reminds me of a character in Jennifer Egan's a visit from the goon squad - Scotty Hausmann - it doesn't really move me, my appreciation of his music is mood related, and today the mood says 4/10

    today this one suits me better http://youtu.be/qM5eYVlztJc

    I'm afraid I found that a bit irksome. 3/10


    I ought to despise the music of Andy Williams, but he's done at least three songs of which I'm inordinately fond, and this is one of them.

    I'll pay that - just - it could do with a remix 6/10

    I don't know why this exactly - it came on the wireless the other morning and I've been absently humming it ever since (I've heard it before over the years but it's got me for some reason)

    I wonder they don't get sick of singing that song. Good song though - haven't heard it in a while. 6/10

    I remembered this one. Good stuff.
