Ah I'd have a killer pick if this was the metal game, ok need a bit to think

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Lovely theme.

 

[CiG]

Congrats Foxy Brown, hopefully I think of some shit before this game passes by too quickly.

(((heavy sarcasm)))

 

[Funerary_Doom]

Ha word. I'm not complaining. I barely have time to post much these days. But i will have time during the holiday vacation, woot woot so much metal to check out. been seriously slacking.

got about 6 submissions so far. Awesome. i dont wanna give the list away but who knew this forum had a whole lotta soul/funky listeners or maybe CIG's foxy brown connection resonanted

keep em coming.

 

[CiG]

I actually almost submitted something by The Stylistics.

 

[Funerary_Doom]

I'll make the playlist tonight or tomorrow morning. Think I have about 10 submissions

[no country for old wainds]

i've always thought the host should be allowed to submit a song anyway tbh, especially if numbers are low. they just shouldn't count if they win, and if someone else picks the same song the host should be the one to step aside rather than making them pick something else. when i host i often don't pick the best themes i think of because i really want to submit a song for them if they come around, so this'd solve that problem.

 

[Funerary_Doom]

Yeah I only picked the song because it wasn't picked and it was what inspired the theme to begin with. Also, it wouldn't count if won though i highly doubt it would win to begin with. I agree the host should be able to throw in a song especially since its not a long playlist in comparison to the old days

 

[Baroque]

Yeah I agree, the winner should get to pick a song, it's part of the fun. I've snuck in my own pick before, and so has someone else (Grumbles I think?). Anyhow this playlist looks good, a few legends on there.

 

[no country for old wainds]

pompey also did it, and possibly yoda.

 

[CiG]

Agreed, if I ever win again I'll do it too.

 

[dwellerINTHEdark]

Oops forgot to submit. I'll live tho.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

Oops forgot to submit. I'll live tho.

That was quite a mistake on your part. How very meta.

1. Saint Etienne - I Threw It All Away
Yawning 4/10

2. Tame Impala - New Person, Same Ol' Mistakes
Okish psych pop rock, a bit tame though hahahehehoho 5.5/10

3. Skeleton Key - All the Things I've Lost
This was cool 7.5/10

4. Dion - Runaround Sue
Here's a song, it's sad but true
About a subject, we all knew
Would bring out some gems, and some poo
Some old poo like Runaround Sue 4/10

5. Steeleye Span - Little Sir Hue
Folk rock is still not my thing 3/10

6. Modest Mouse - The Good Times are Killing Me
Aaannnd Modest Mouse are still not my thing 3/10

7. John Lennon - What You Got
Not that into solo Lennon, but this is killer 9/10

8. Stevie Wonder - Blame it on the Sun
Love Stevie but isn't his best by a longshot. Still, nice enough ballad. 6.5/10

9. Blue Pills - Ain't No Change
Pretty damn rocking high-octane blues jams 8/10

10. Smokey Robinson & the Miracles - The Track of My Tears
Good song but eh 5/10

11. Anathema - A Simple Mistake
This was much better than I thought it'd be, good dynamics and vocals. I know they used to be/still are? metal but there wasn't much metal about this at all. 7/10

Was expecting more gold in this playlist tbh, mistakes have been made.

 

[CiG]

You're fucking shit.

 

[Sirjack]

St Etienne - half of this sounds like a terrific Goldfrapp number and also a piss-weak Minogue sop feast. The baked fool must have been off his tits to submit something so dry and vacuous as this. 7/10

Tame Impala - clever, well thought psych-pop-sop. l like a song or two by these dudes. 7/10

Skeleton Key - Plastic funk that doesn't work, amateurish trash, l really don't like this. 2/10

Dion - Perfect example of a retro pop song. Three minutes of bliss as if Beatles, Police etc 9/10 Gorgeous

Steeleye Span - Wow for forever i've never known who this song was by. Terrific Tull-like rocky folk. 7/10

Modest Mouse - Shizenhausen 2/10 l do need to wake up tho

Lennon - Pimped up production overload. l likey, but it ain't great. 5/10 for all the bloatedness

Stevie Wonder - As perfect as Dion, but smoother, less edge 810

Blues Pill - Enjoyable if stilted modern/classic rock. It's kinda like rejection 5/10

Smokey Robinson - Another perfect pop song. 9/10

Anathema - it's clever but totally despicable...ends well 7/10

Most tunes l knew here but ,that was an enjoyable spin. cheers folks

 

[no country for old wainds]

when you said 'despicable' did you mean 'disposable'? seems a bit of a strong word for a 7/10 otherwise haha

Saint Etienne - I Threw It All Away 6/10
I wanted to like this more than I did.

Tame Impala - New Person, Same Ol' Mistakes 4.5/10
I used to hang out with these guys, I lived right around the corner from them, they were/are massive yuppie douchebags. Anyway, I used to like them but now not so much, if at all.

Skeleton Key - All The Things I've Lost 3.5/10
This is not very good at all. It's shit, in fact.

Dion - Runaround Sue 7.5/10
Just an old Italian trying to warn you to steer clear of sluts. Timeless stuff.

Steeleye Span - Little Sir Hue 7/10
Nice, charming little tune.

Modest Mouse - The Good Times Are Killing Me 4/10
I grew up skateboarding and as a result I spent a lot of my life being forced to listen to this shitty band. Hipsters pretending to be rugged.

John Lennon - What You Got 7.5/10
Solo Lennon > The Beatles, this is no exception. Raw as hell to boot.

Stevie Wonder - Blame It On The Sun 10/10
Best pick so far (and probably best overall) so thanks to whoever salvaged this mediocre playlist. I love you.

Blue Pills - Ain't No Change 5/10
Boring crap. Female vocals are the only highlight and they're not even that great. Come back when you have some balls/guts a la Orange Sunshine.

Smokey Robinson & The Miracles - The Track Of My Tears 9/10
So smooth, this just can't be beat with any amount of shitty nu-funk or beta male blues rock.

Anathema - A Simple Mistake 5/10
Didn't grab me in any way.
