Good to see jj found his way back to the thread



That elusive hide-and-seek cow is at it again
Typical that the first time someone other than myself puts up something from Whale I'm not able to vote.
Hopefully it'll still do quite Whale without you.
(Jaysus, really hope none of me rellies see that one - I'll be lynched )

Oh whale. Still a killer pun you got there. Kelp it up, I spray!

1. Whale - That's Where it's At

2. Come - Yr Reign

3. Stone Temple Pilots - Plush

4. Mahler - Symphony No. 5, Movement 5, Part 1

5. Billy Preston - Will it Go Round in Circles

6. Vern Gosdin - That Just About Does It

7. American Aquarium - Losing Side of Twenty-Five



Round 10

1. Billy Preston - Will It Go Round in Circles
(Excellent first-time listen that had me groovin' in my chair.)

2. American Aquarium - Losing Side of Twenty-Five
(Musically this isn't all that interesting, but it's all about the lyrics for me here, which I find highly relatable, even to the point of it name-dropping the chain of grocery stores I worked at as a teen.)

3. Stone Temple Pilots - Plush
(I think fondly of STP, since I remember them being all over rock radio in the 90's, and hearing them automatically conjures memories of summer days spent outside playing basketball and drinking Kool-Aid as a kid as the radio blared nearby.)

4. Come - Yr Reign
(Made me think of Nirvana, but that might partly be because I kept mistaking the "reign me" line for "rape me.")

5. Vern Gosdin - That Just About Does It
(Familiar, comfortable country sound.)

6. Mahler - Symphony No. 5, Movement 5, Part 1
(Zzzzzz . . .)

7. Whale - That's Where It's At
(It's like they're trying to sound as annoying and obnoxious as possible.)

Did I put the wrong link? How could someone fall asleep during this powerful piece (plus a great performance)? I know it’s just personal preference, but still...

Some of our comments have me thinking of a song tournament variation. Imagine this format but mixed with Survivor style rules and game play!

You create tribes tricking your group into liking their song betting on the idea that the final tribal counsel might vote their song off, leaving yours in the running. If you find hidden Billy Idols in the forums you can save your song from a vote off.


Hmmmm....
