Mozart, Larcrimosa - 10/10, Mozart's unfinished masterpiece, truly haunting orchestration.
Andi Almqvist, Death - 5/10, Meh, it's alright. Strikes me as banal and uninspired though. Plus that kid looks annoying as all hell.
Christian Death, First Communion - 6/10, Decent, but doesn't seem to go anywhere and hangs on the same progression for way too long.
Nick Cave, 'O Malley's Bar - 6/10, Nice funky piano and bass backing to Nick's jittery, absurdist ramblings. Could do itself and a favor and vary the instrumentation a lot more given how prolonged this is.
Alice In Chains, Rain When I Die - 7.5/10, Great song that just oozes Sabbath from the vocals to the guitar and bass.
Eric Clapton, Tears of Heaven - 6.5/10, Nice little ballad from Clapton, a little sappy and vapid though.
Comus, Drip, Drip - 7/10, Bizarre, intriguing cacophony of violin, acoustic guitar, etc. I really dig it.
Queen, Bohemian Rhapsody - 8/10, Normally a 10/10 song, but it doesn't really fit the theme considering it's lyrics have no real meaning and are nothing more or less than utter gibberish according to Freddie Mercury himself.
Man's Gin, The Death of Jimmy Sturgis - 6.5/10, Semi-bluesy ramble-fest, I like it.
Hüsker Dü, Pink Turns To Blue - 7/10, nice poppy, punk number.
Carissa's Weird, Ignorant Piece of Shit - 5/10, Not the worst, but they keep slinking back to the same parts like their being domestically abused by them, and the vocals are barely audible whimpering.
The Rolling Stones, Paint It Black - 10/10, Jumpy pounding, thumping rhythms accompanied by twangy, sweet Middle Eastern-esque guitar playing and impassioned, somber raving from Mick Jagger. Utterly classic.
Rev. Blind Gary Davis, Death Don't Have No Mercy - 9/10, Furious gospel-like vocals, virtuoso guitar playing, an impeccable sense of melody, and, speaking of that, one of the most genuinely, beautifully melancholy melodies I've ever heard with the "You look in the bed and your mother will be gone..." line.
Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Wenn dein Mütterlein - 8.5/10, Completely inimicable performance from one of the best opera singers ever.
Blue Öyster Cult, Then Came The Last Days of May - 7/10, Great, calm ballad from one of the greatest bands in rock 'n' roll history.
Gravenhurst, Animals - 7/10, Cool ballad, electronic parts remind me of Bowie and Manson.
Tenhi, Tuulenkaato - 4.5/10, Something of a just barely fascinating piece, it doesn't seem to do much.
