Rate That Song

[billl]

Yeah, it was through this thread I discovered Dresden Dolls, and subsequently developed a bit of a teen crush on Amanda.



Some days, but not today. 5/10


While we're in that area of crosspollination, here's one of the very few songs by the calculating MrB that I like.

The performance and the filming of it are both amazing. Everyone looks so great, the "choreography" is fantastic, and Byrne has taken absolute command in about as goofy a manner as can be imagined--doesn't even seem goofy. And the music matches perfectly--no surprise I loved the CD long before seeing the film. I think Byrne's sweating is understandable, but a jacket might be a good idea, for appearance's sake.

8.77/10

Anyhow, Amanda F. Palmer was mentioned, so that reminded me of the Dr. Who special that aired last Saturday, which featured her and another American Whovian named Reggie Watts, who she can be seen performing with somewhere on youtube, if you look for it. Here's an example of his work, if you aren't familiar:

Give that one a 6/10 but it's riding on the coattails of 'fun' mostly.

It reminds this reader of a similar video by Imogen Heap (don't know the artist at all but the video was cool):

Have no idea how to rate it. How can anyone enjoy classical music without context or understanding? This reader has never studied it. On a purely superficial level it's a pretty noise with a lot of voices and it's very subtle at parts. Is it something this reader would turn on at any point of his day? Maybe, if he were making a point of it, if he understood it.

On a purely superficial, unwashed masses kind of scale: 5/10- mostly based on the technical skill it must've taken to make it and somewhat on its pretty sound. It no other way does it speak to this reader.

It seems like a filthy thing to do, to post this song after the previous one. Non-sequitur completely.

Filthy = Norah? No it's a nice song. She's got a great voice. 8/10

Something different.

I'm 47. Perhaps I'm the same age as your Dad.

That was ok. 5/10

It was like this in the early 80s in the UK. Depressing.

Ehhh, that one missed this reader by a generation or two. 4/10.

But not every song can be cheese-free. Let's keep it going, 'till the sun goes down. Let's keep it goin'.

That's not even an Elton John song though, I think it shouldn't count.

OK, 8/10 for the clip from Tommy (Although, it's not as good as Ann Margret over the top craziness in that movie).

4/10 for the gimmicky Beatles thing.

And here's some Bob Fosse

It is wonderfully cheesy. I've always liked it.

Now this is funny.
