Drip, drip, drop, little April Song Tournament

Tools    





Let the night air cool you off
1. Mozart - Sonata for Two Pianos
- My nomination. Them two pianos make sweet, sweet love.

2. George Strait - Take Me Back to Tulsa
- I love George Strait and I love that George Strait loves Bob Wills. I know what Waylon said, but that was before King George took the throne of Texas. This is a good time.

3. Wishbone Ash - The King Will Come
- This reminds me how much music from the 60s and 70s I'll never listen to. I just don't have time to find everything I'd like to listen to before I die. I love this type of stuff, I put it on my list of stuff to check out, I look at my list, it's thousands of albums long, I lament.

4. Iron Maiden - 2 Minutes To Midnight
- Maiden is pretty indulgent. I compared them to Kenny Omega to Captain Spaulding, but that reference is probably only one he will get out of this group. The difference is, I find Maiden charming.

5. Gravediggaz - 1-800-Suicide
- Music like this really comes from a specific time and place that seems long gone now. Horrorcore didn't catch on super strong, but it did have a pretty solid following and produce some good stuff until it was eventually ruined. RZA really stands out on this track as being above everybody else on it. Shout out to Cap'n's shout to Flatlinerz.

6. The Warning - Narcisista
- I have a soft spot for drummers who sing. She's no Levon Helm, but who is? Good stuff.

7. Sufjan Stevens - Mystery of Love
- Sufjan loves being understated. I don't necessarily love Sufjan, but I still haven't given him the courtesy of a deep dive. His John Wayne Gacy song is incredible, however.

8. Dead Confederate - The Rat
- With a name like Dead Confederate, I expected so much more. They don't sound like dead Confederates.

9. Def Leppard - Foolin'
- Give me Def Jam over Def Leppard

10. A Day to Remember - The Plot to Bomb the Panhandle
- Not for me.

i will nominate my song after the job today sorry Chyp
You're grand Derek, anytime in the next 17 hours and a bit is fine



Sugar Babe - Shinkiro no Machi - Didn't know this. I really enjoyed it. Nice, bright a breezy. Just right for my current mood.

Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World - Love this version and thankfully it has been a while since I last heard it, but this is the most overplayed song of that whole session, IMO.

Dancing With Tears In My Eyes - Ultravox - I've been meaning to put this forward for the last few tournaments and aways forgot.

Fozzy - Judas - This is OK. Fairly standard, but there's nothing wrong with that.

Apocalyptica (feat. Nina Hagen) - Seemann - Meh. It's ok but, again, it became background.

Castles in the Air - Don McLean - It's inoffensively just there for me. I have to be honest and say it became background music, but that's not a bad thing.

Angaleena Presley - Bless My Heart - Didn't do anything for me, but didn't go on too long and managed not to annoy me, so well done on that score.

Double Echo - Felix & Tantrum - Pick a song and stick with it. Felt like I was listening to a poorly made mash for much of it.

Queens of the Stone Age - Turning On the Screw § (alt link if needed) - This is another of those bands I don't really 'get'. It's alright to hear it, but it's not something I'd pick out to listen to.

Racoon - Shoes Of Lightning - No. Sorry.
