Dead Kennedys - Too Drunk to Fuck

Stereotypically punk in a bad way, just coarse with nothing to say. But maybe I'm just bitter because I don't have any parties to go to.
4/10

The Pogues - A Pair of Brown Eyes
8/10

Kult - Wódka

Każdej grupie przydzielono zbombardowanie innej wyspy. W wyniku bombardowania zniszczono dok i zacumowany w rejonie Penangu jako przydatnych do Indii. Zbiorniki paliwa na singapurski dok, ale ze względu na Wyspy Japońskie, bombowce atakowały cele amerykańskich.
1/10

Jeff Buckley - Lilac Wine
8/10

Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson - The Bottle
7/10

Slim Dusty - My Pal Alcohol
5/10

Tom Waits - Jockey Full of Bourbon

Still don't like him.
4/10

Sachiko Kobayashi - Omoi de sake

Translated lyrics here.
9/10

Gogol Bordello - Alcohol

Always thought of these guys as a novelty band so by that standard this is better than expected.
6/10

Haha what the actual fuck?
 
Dead Kennedys - Too Drunk To Fuck
This song turned me onto Dead Kennedys. Before that I think I'd only seen a live clip of them playing Holiday in Cambodia and I thought it was pretty bad. Heard this and loved it. 9/10

The Pogues - A Pair of Brown Eyes

Sounds like The Pogues. I don't hate it but I'm not Irish 5/10

Kult - Wódka (Vodka)

I like it. Good euro punk. 7/10

Jeff Buckley - Lilac Wine

My least favourite song off Grace. So saccharine sweet and I prefer his originals. Still good though. 7/10

Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson - The Bottle

Fucking jazz flute can just fuck right off. 4/10

Slim Dusty - My Pal Alcohol

My Dad used to play me Slim Dusty songs on his guitar when I was a kid. My Dad's a pretty good bloke. I can't help but feel sentimental. 7.5/10

Tom Waits - Jockey Full of Bourbon

Pretty boring. 5/10

Sachiko Kobayashi - Omoi de sake

This is fucking beautiful. I could've gone a third version. 9/10

Gogol Bordello - Alcohol

Hipster Gypsies are ok 6/10
 
I think perhaps we have/had the same DVD. Was it from a punk video compilation?
Nah it used to be on Rage all the time when I'd sit up waiting for them to play metal with my VHS paused and ready. I couldn't stand punk at that time and watching sweaty/slimy Jello flail about kinda repulsed me.

I like them but I never could get past the goofy style of these guys enough to truly consider myself a fan. They just make me want to listen to the much better B-52's or something.

The Pogues - A Pair of Brown Eyes 10/10
Love The Pogues, always have and always will. True die-hard boozehounds listen to Irish music.

Kult - Wódka (Vodka) 6/10
I hate vodka but this song was okay.

Jeff Buckley - Lilac Wine 7.5/10
He really was very good at minimalistic compositions like this. I still prefer his father's works but songs like these remind me why people love him so much.

Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson - The Bottle 10/10
That was fucking amazing.

Slim Dusty - My Pal Alcohol 9/10
The embodiment of the Australian spirit. Bloody legend, nuff said.

Tom Waits - Jockey Full of Bourbon 8.5/10
Can't go wrong with Tom Waits + Alcohol. Instrumentally it reminds me of the Black Books theme, which reminds me of Dylan Moran and simply amplifies the theme.

Sachiko Kobayashi - Omoi de Sake 9.5/10
"Life is such a wilderness these days.
Memory wine, getting drunk is all I do."

Unlike the other foreign language song, I actually love sake. Hail yakuza juice!

Gogol Bordello - Alcohol 7/10
That was some crazy gypsy shit.

Genuinely surprised nobody submitted "Gin and Juice" by Snoop Dogg. :D
