I'm going to get my Rush out of the way now, as though I like Rush, it's a pretty shallow like and runs a handful of songs deep.
2.11: Subdivisions - Rush (Rush song)
I know it's from their hyper-synth phase. In fact I played it for a youngster who had never heard it and he thought it was a song from a NES game or something due to the synth tracks.
But the Neil Peart ride cymbal pattern is my favorite work of his, and it is probably my favorite Rush song.

I saw her the summer before last during a heatwave, and she was great. I also puked after the show at a friends house. Those cheap bottles of chardonnay being sold at the venue seemed like a really good idea outside in the heat. Turned out not to be such a good idea later on.

I was thinking of the 30 minute track on this record for this category.
2.10 "People Got a Lotta Nerve" - Neko Case - Animals
2 1/2 minutes of pure pop goodness. The verse namechecks elephants, killer whales and sharks. The chorus is sung from the perspective of the whale.

I went on a Monkees run in my yut (my HS band covered Stepping Stone)... don't recall hearing this one- nice.

I'm hoping to mix in as much new-ish stuff as I can. This crushes the boy band beatlesesque stuff I've been considering from my daughter's playlist.

As an observer, this draft is so fun. All three of these were new to me, and all three are outstanding.

Ditto for Floppy Lane.
Not that anyone cares, but we decided today he has odd rounds, I'll take even rounds. If it gets to me before the clock ends today, feel free to skip me and I'll pick tonight.
TIA

I had lunch with El Floppo today - first time meeting. Good guy. We talked about a million topics - kids, FFA, FF/poker frustrations, f'n Manhattan rents. After we said goodbye he shouted across Fifth Avenue "We forgot to talk about the draft!!"
Maybe you had to be there, but it was good for a laugh.

Meeting on Valentines Day, and pushing for the gay folk category... I'm thinking they're on the down-low. Bobby + Floppy =

Stupid question, but is the "Levin" Tony Levin from King Crimson, and Peter Gabriel's 'back-up band' (Among many others)?

Thought so, he is spectacular. Seen him with PG several times and with ABWH. Love to see him playing with his "funk fingers."

I'm going for ambiguity.
I'm feeling a little Louis CK on this. I could go the second half. Why not? I've sucked at relationships with women for a half century...maybe I'll try something different.
They have a parade!
No homo.

Also, I've been bagging a 25 year old spinner from Japan all year. I haven't had a heart attack (yet). Def not going gay until that fling ends.

Probably should have said as long as instead of until, right?
OK, I'm done with ambiguity. Not gay, not bi. But still love queer music. It'll all make sense later.

[SIZE=medium]Ok, I am the first one to admit that taking a song from a concert movie is a big time cop-out. However, Stop Making Sense was a pivotal movie for me. The first time I watched Stop Making Sense, it was a life moment that sticks with me (ok I was high). They talk about heroin addicts chasing that first high. Well, I have spent my life chasing that perfection of that moment watching and listening to and being changed by that concert movie. I know the birth of children or falling in love or climbing mountains (literal and figurative) should surpass my late teen self-watching Stop Making Sense, but apparently nothing can. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]When you watch Stop Making Sense you see not only the skill, but the joy they had in these perfect moments. I have always wished there was a steady shot available of each person on stage without a cut. Anyway, the last song fit the category and made the scene that much better or whatever Usuals criteria was. J[/SIZE]

The Lord Huron thing started off slow and I didn't think I'd like it, but then the chorus was great. Altogether a very good song.

Wow, "Spiral" is beautiful piece of music. Reminds me a little of a Wilco tune (with words, which I won't name here as I might select it later.)

Time to get religious
Religious songs/Non-religious artists
Couldn't have also placed this in Scandanavian, Awful lyrics you love (My Guinness record breaker?????)
and Prince song (a bit of a stretch, but one of the 3 loves to wear purple and is trying hard to look like Prince - Musically nowhere near it)
2.06 - Army of Lovers - Crucified - 3:32

That was so bad I loved it.
It also made my pants tight, and then loose, and then tight and then loose again.

Very nice - I do like how these force me out of my comfort zone at times and how the FBG good taste schema turns me to some good new stuff.Steve Tasker said:
