Rate That Song

[MarkBastable]

Ahh, punt.



I’m sure it is, but it just isn’t my cup of tea. And neither is this, or as Ozzy famously said, “What’s a Bieber?”

Yer killin’ me, Jack, yer killin’ me

I think the idea is that you rate the one I posted, bub.

I don't like it. 4/10

With the quiet talky bits in it, it reminded me of this

EDIT- just rated Sancho's.

Hmmm.... 4, or 5. I can't decide. Maybe less.

I liked it. 7/10.

This one used to play in a city centre pub I used to work in in the 80s. It always takes me back. Great vid too.

Sorry, Mark. I’ve never been much good at following the rules. It’s caused trouble for me my whole life. At any rate, I was trying to rate your tune metaphorically: to me it felt like 4th and long, and I couldn’t do anything with it, so I punted. If I have to give it rating, I’ll say…nah, I can’t do it. It’s just not my cup of tea (not to mix metaphors or anything). I’m sure it works on some level for you and a lot of other people, but I’m tone-deaf to it. Okay, okay, okay, it had some pretty parts, how about…6/10? Y Amigos?

Paul, I’ve always like the Peter Gabriel song, and the video too 9/10

Okay, so, no Bieber fans here. Here’s a Canadian group I absolutely love:

Cowboy Junkies – Sweet Jane http://youtu.be/BHRFZFmEq9o

Well, JoH is no social critic, but it seems that the difference between Gaga and Bieber is that one of them obnoxiously pushes against the the status quo and one of them obnoxiously thrives in it. (Totally unqualified to make that statement, never heard a Bieber song.)

The Sanch, what you said about punting reminds this reader of Leo Kottke's commencement address to the University of Wisconsin- Milwaukee. Kottke is a god.

9 for Sweet Jane. Simply haunting.

I’d’a given Biz Markie an 8

Yo Mama so fat, dat when she wear those Spandex tights wit tha loops around tha heel, and the b*tch haf to faht, she blow the tenna-shoes right offa her feet.

Here’s a blast from the past, and the first music video I can remember seeing, grade 2 or thereabouts, and a Lit-net appropriate selection:
Conjunction Junction, by the Pedantics (I just made up the group name)

10. They snuck some weird charm into those old Schoolhouse Rock cartoons.

7 out of 10 for humour, and the ability to mimic popular music exactly. :P
