Non-metal Themed Mixtape Game

Stu Phillips - Knight Rider Theme

5/10

I like this as an intro to the playlist but I don't think that it's exceptionally good music.

Filthy Frank - Thomas the Tank Engine

1/10

Very funny.

Queen - I'm in Love With My Car

8/10

I really like the use of engine noises and the guitar makes some cool sounds.

Hawkwind - Silver Machine

7/10

Thank goodness they got Lemmy to sing on this instead of the other guy.

Radio Birdman - 455 SD

7/10

Myssouri - Muscle Car on a Dead End Road

6/10

This was pretty cool.

Jethro Tull - Locomotive Breathe

6/10

Good, but not one of my favorite Jethro Tull songs.

Captain Clegg and the Night Creatures - Transylvanian Terror Train

6/10

I wonder who submitted this. Wait, no I don't...

Johnny Cash - Engine One-Forty-Three

7.5/10

Very nice.

Johnny Burnette - The Train Kept a-Rollin'

3/10

This isn't actually about a train.

The Clash - Brand New Cadillac

7.5/10

I didn't know that this was a cover song until today.

Billy Ocean - Get Out of My Dreams, And Into My Car

3/10

This song sucks.

Steely Dan - Midnight Cruiser

3/10

Uncool dad music.

Pleasant but uninteresting.

Excellent song. A true classic.

Knight Rider Theme 10/10
I can't not think of Workaholics anytime I hear this theme these days, so it's a win/win for me.

Filthy Frank - Thomas the Tank Engine 6/10
All the world's autism condensed into one guy. "CHOO CHOO."

Queen - I'm in Love With My Car 7/10
Good stuff.

Hawkwind - Silver Machine 9/10

Radio Birdman - 455 SD 8/10
Great band, one of my favourite Australian bands easily. Buncha Aussie stooges.

Myssouri - Muscle Car on a Dead End Road 9/10
Never heard of this band before, like a cool combination of Nick Cave and Chris Isaak by way of a David Lynch movie or something.

Jethro Tull - Locomotive Breathe 8.5/10
Hail the Tull.

Captain Clegg and the Night Creatures - Transylvanian Terror Train 5/10
Not much of a fan of this vanillabilly stuff. Completely inoffensive, incorporating the blandest aspects of vintage rockabilly with the featureless aspects of modern rockabilly.

Johnny Cash - Engine One-Forty-Three 9/10
Really like these storytelling-with-music-as-a-backdrop songs that a lot of folk, blues and country artists used to do.

Johnny Brunette - The Train Kept a-Rollin' 9/10
This is the sound of pussy-slaying.

The Clash - Brand New Cadillac 5/10
This is absolutely inferior to the Vince Taylor original.

Billy Ocean - Get Out of My Dreams, And Into My Car 9.5/10
Basically perfect in any context.

Steely Dan - Midnight Cruiser 8/10
I'm never not happy to come across some Steely Dan. <3

Kari Bremnes - Hurtigruta 7/10
I couldn't tell by the Google Translate of the lyrics what this was specifically about (towards the end it refers to a captain so I assume boating) but anyway Norwegian Enya, cool (or is Enya the Irish Kari Bremnes?).

Dionne Warwick - Trains and Boats and Planes 7/10
Nice and restrained in a passionate way.

Krafterwork - Tour de France 10/10

Crazy Bus 1/10
Tinnitus: the soundtrack.

I really should have submitted this gem:



Inside my own head I'll never live this fatal mistake down.

knight rider - l don't actually really remember the theme music but l loved the show. this has that great 16th note thing going on that l love but, it's way too short and one dimensional. 6/10

filthy frank - 2/10 not even sure what the 2's for

queen - 10/10 if you had to name the most distinct geetar tone like, ever, it'd be brian may

hawkwind - they had the smarts to include that intro and then an envelope filter across the whole track. and the clever the who chorus power chords like no-one else. otherwise it's a bog standard bluesy pub rock tune. 8/10

radio birdman - ha, cig, satanstoenail or slammer's gotta have picked this surely - don't call me shirley. awesome 9/10 maybe i'm forgetting someone

myssouri - this is background music to me. nothing wrong with it, it's the kind of stuff l could listen to whilst playing scrabble or trivial pursuit . 6.5/10

jethro tull - one of the best sounding bands ever to visit the planet. insane core of musicians filtered out this band. 10/10

transylvania terror train - ugh l could take it or leave it with this half the time. hu get it. l have to be in the right mood for this 5/10

johnny cash - lots a versions. not one of the best of cash for me although the song is great. 6/10

johnny burnette - the real deal. with the added reverb as per usual. fantastic stuff 10/10

the clash - i've always had a thing with the clash where l think they were shit and kinda fakers in a way. and it's never gone away. 4/10

billy ocean - how do you pick the only version blocked in the uk
this is excruciating and you listen to it and realise how excruciating it was to make and realise what genius's these guys were. 8/10

steely dan - probably one of my least favourite songs from this album. my fav steely dan album. nonetheless it is genius. dad rock...cocks 10/10
thelonious my old friend

kari bremnes - hmmmmm nah not my thing 4/10

dionne warwick - beautiful. 7/10

kraftwerk - lve not heard the whole album so l can imagine this is slightly off road. no pun intended. sounds ok. 6/10

crazy bus - is there a minus - 4.6251849525148730851
not half as good as steve vai' - there's something dead in here

some fantastic some plain
cool list for the most part
 
1. Knight Rider Theme: 7/10 Catchy. I don't remember this. I'm pretty much the same age as everyone here. I guess my Jamaican is showing.
2. Filthy Frank - Thomas the Tank: 3/10. I have no sense of humor sometimes. I recognize that this is suppose to be a joke, somehow, but I'm completely stoned faced.
3. Queen - I'm in Love with My Car: 6/10 This is OK. Some cool solos and catchy music writing here and there, but I've heard better from Queen.
4. Hawkwind - Silver Machine : 6.5/10 This might grow on me the more I listen to it. On the first listen, I thought it was cool, but a little repetitive.
5. Radio Birdman - 455SD: 7/10 I liked this song, it's pretty catchy.
6. Myssouri - Muscle Car on a Dead End Road: 8/10 i like this song. This would be something I'd be interested in exploring further. Sorta giving me Type-O Negative vibes.
7. Jethro Tull - Locomotive Breath: 8/10 Love this album. Aqualung is an absolute classic. This track included. Flute solos ftw.
8. Captain Clegg and the Night Creatures -Transylvania Terror Train: 6/10. It's on topic but I just thought this song was a little bland.
9. Johnny Cash - Engine One-Forty-Three- 3/10 Johnny Cash always puts me to sleep. I couldn't wait for this to be over. I could only tolerate Ring of Fire. The rest is sleepytime.
10. Johnny Brunette - The Train Kept a-Rollin' 6/10. This reminds me of Elvis or something. Is it the same type of music? I get the appeal, but this would have to grow on me.
11. The Clash - Brand New Cadillac: 5/10 This is OK. Lukewarm. Not hot, not cold. Just directly in the middle.
12. Billy Ocean - Get Out of My Dreams And Into My Car: 6/10 Almost catchy. I feel like my sister who's in her 40s jammed to this when growing up. I didnt completely dislike it.
13. Steely Dan - Midnight Cruiser: 3/10 These vocals grate into my soul in the worse way possible. The music is way better than the vocals Idk why they insist on having this guy singing over it. UGH. So out of tune.
14. Kari Bremnes - Hurtigruta: 2/10 Super random pick. I have no idea if this is on topic as it's in Norwegian but I'll trust it is. This was boring as fuck.
15. Dionne Warwick - Trains and Boats and Planes: 6/10 I've definitely heard this track before. There's something very nostalgic about it. I don't dislike it. I'm enjoying listening to this lady hum throughout the song too.
16. Kraftwerk - Tour de France: 2/10: What in the world am I listening to?
17. Crazy Bus: 0/10: So that just took the rest of the patience I've had. Couldn't finish the song. Whoever submitted this track is a cruel evil bastard.

Since TB is no longer with us, is anyone else going to rate this? If not, someone should tally it up so we can move on.
