Second, for some songs, if I don't listen to them for a while, I may start enjoying them again. Whereas, bad songs are bad forever. I have to admit though, that I still can't listen to almost anything by the Eagles - way too overplayed. On the original topic. I suggest "She's Having my Baby". Many of you will be too young to remember this one, but trust me on this. This song sucks in a really big way. |

as far as Zepellin? like i said, it is completely subjective - i guarantee most of my favorite music would leave most people scratching their heads and saying "WTF?" but i don't like Zepellin's sound much, and i really hate the fact that they borrowed so much from the old blues musicians without giving the proper credit. please don't ask me to go back and give examples. i just remember one of my instructors going on and on about some of Zepellin's stuff, and i happened to be paying attention in class and thinking to myself - "bullshit - that song was straight outta Muddy Waters, and that one was Howlin Wolf!" but that has been about 15 years, so it would take some serious time for me to track down the specifics. anyway - i am glad you enjoy the band though.

Gary Puckett and the Union Gap's soulful homage to a young girl's loss of her virginity . . . This Girl Is A Woman Now This girl walked in dreams, Playing in a world of her own. This girl was a child, Existing in a playground of stone. Then, one night her world was changed; Her life and dreams were rearranged. She would never be the same again. chorus This Girl is a Woman Now; She's learned how to live. This Girl is a Woman Now. She's found out what it's all about And she's learnin', learnin' to live. This girl tasted love, as tender as the gentle dawn. She cried a single tear, A teardrop that was sweet and warm. Our hearts told us we were right, And on that sweet velvet night. A child had died, a woman had been born. chorus [/gag!]

I don't know if anyone around here ever listen to Country Western (its one of my occasional secret vices). Here's a song by Toby Keith that's still getting some air time:
American girls and American guys will always stand up and salute; Will always recognize When we see ol' glory flying, There's a lot of men dead, So we can sleep in peace at night when we lay down our head. My daddy served in the army, Where he lost his right eye. But he flew a flag out in our yard 'til the day that he died. He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me To grow up and live happy in the land of the free. Now this nation that I love has fallen under attack. A mighty sucker punch came flying in from somewhere in the back. Soon as we could see clearly through our big black eye, Man we lit up your world like the Fourth of July. Hey Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list, And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist. And the eagle will fly, And there's gonna be Hell, When you hear Mother Freedom start ringing her bell! It's gonna feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you... Brought to you courtesy of the Red, White and Blue! Oh, Justice will be served and the battle will rage. This big dog will fight when you rattle his cage You'll be sorry that you messed with the US of A 'Cuz we'll put a boot in your ass It's the American way. Hey Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list, And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist. And the eagle will fly, And there's gonna be Hell, When you hear Mother Freedom start ringing her bell! And it'll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you... Brought to you courtesy of the Red, White and Blue! Of the Red, White and Blue.. Of my Red, White and Blue... This song makes me want to puke every time I hear it! |
