    9/10 It's perfect but I'm jealous so I'm only giving them a 9

    Music like this really makes me happy.

    Okay, I'll get off the Bert Jansch kick soon I swear, but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMlLlwVk9eI

    It's definitely more subdued.. but it's just the most amazing sound I've heard. Especially that it's just him, and it's not dubbed.

    5/10, mostly for great guitar and splitting the guitar in half like that- how on earth...- but the lyrics and voice aren't so good.

    8 out of 10. Maybe a little higher. Very good song.

    Did you see the Pearl Jam documentary on PBS last night?


    Anyway - how about this one

    7/10. There's no denying great guitar work.

    Woke up this morning with this on the brain...

    I can't stand a song titled November rain, not when the weatherman says is going to rain for the next three days, furthermore I really can't stand the Guns 'n roses 1/10

    I trot this out every so often to remind myself - and you - how good old-fashioned r'n'b can be when it's tight and focussed.

    Tight. 9/10

    Do yourself a favor and don't just listen to the music, actually watch this video.

    Blimey. 10/10. I actually rather liked the song too.

    So, to stick with that era, I'll present one of my favourite renditions of a solid-gone jazz standard.

    It's not too bad; I'm sure it's good, actually. But I just could never get into that jazz-age stuff. 6/10

    The dark-days of November are upon us. So I'm feelin' a little grim

    Perty good. 7/10. I'd forgotten how cool/fairly unique their singing style was.

    This one starts of kind of quiet

    Here's one. Two teas, both with sugar please.

    Yes I remember him, but in my opinion his performances as a triple jumper were much more exciting than his singing 5/10

    I love this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1lFM1K8R1s

    I hated it for the first 1/3, but when she started singing I actually quite liked it. 6/10

    This guy makes comic books, which I assume is why the video is so cool.
