I thought we were making a playlist from the groups we've done in the MAD's. Slade and the Pointer Sisters are ready to contribute.Is there any interest in a Christmas/Holiday song draft?
Did I mention there would be dice involved?

I’m pretty sure Genesis has an epic 20 minute song about the journey of the three Magi while on peyote.I thought we were making a playlist from the groups we've done in the MAD's. Slade and the Pointer Sisters are ready to contribute.
We can do that too

Mike Shinoda Just Win Baby Given Up
Given Up [Official Music Video] - Linkin Park
Watch the official music video for Given Up by Linkin Park from the album Minutes to Midnight.----------Papercuts - Singles Collection (2000-2023) | Availabl...www.youtube.com
Definitely the heaviest song on Linkin Park’s third album Minutes To Midnight, and it features is swear word! Yup, Chester Bennington drops the F-bomb pretty early on into Given Up – not the squeaky clean spiky-haired singer we previously knew. But that’s not the only thing to note here, Chester also manages to deliver a throat-searing 18 second scream!
Compared to the majority of Minutes To Midnight, this is the most frantic track on the record, with a punked-up percussion and turbo-charged instrumentation like it’s a race to the finish.
“Woah! He said ‘****!’ That was most people’s first reaction upon hearing the heaviest track on the Minutes To Midnight album, with the LA band abandoned their long-standing ‘no swearing’ policy to let Chester B have a good old rant in the chorus,” wrote Paul Brannigan for TeamRock’s Top 10 Best Linkin Park Songs.
“Cleverly introduced by hand claps, pretty much guaranteeing the song’s status as a future live favourite, Given Up is a pure rager, with Bennington turning in a truly fantastic vocal performance.”
The heaviest – and, arguably, best – song on Minutes To Midnight is a serrated stand-out amongst the high-sheen of that third Linkin Park full-length. Rolling in on a revved-up punk-rock engine, dropping an F-bomb that gobbed on the band’s previously unblemished image and generally thrashing about like their lives depended on it, this was a chaotic counterbalance to the calculated polish elsewhere. Also, Chester’s lung-busting 18-second scream is still an utterly remarkable battlecry…
On how the song came about, Chester said, "Given Up. That song went through some different vocal ideas, I mean, most of the songs kinda went through like mass amounts of changes, and I think Given Up probably had like 20 different versions of it." Rob adds, "Started off with Brad clapping his hands and shaking his keys. It was called 21 Stitches, I remember." Chester continued, "Yeah, right, and it kinda started more, a little more punk with the vibe, and then we kinda like mellowed that out and gave it a little more melody in the verses and stuff. I was going for something like really heavy right off the bat, but the chorus came right away. And the bridge, you know, that was kinda, like, we got stuck at that point and Mike was like, you know, 'just kinda like say something that you would actually say,' you know, like, meaning like out of frustration or in that moment in a movie, you know, that the lyrics can relate to, like, 'what would you do?' And so I just started to going off, pretty much. And the 18 seconds scream was kinda like a joke at first but it ended up staying which is like, I always end up doing something during one of the records I wish I didn't. It's good, but, like, I wish I didn't do it cause I've had to perform it every night, you know? Crawling was my first experience with that cause the chorus is like one long note and then, you know, with this one 18 second scream which is not easy to do every night."
"One of our most notorious moments is this big scream on the bridge of Given Up. I think it's a 17- or 18-second-long scream. I had organized the song, and Chester hadn't gotten familiar with the structure of the song when he was singing it. I had written a lot, or most of, those lyrics, I think, and he had just learned them; he was reading them off of a piece of paper. We got to the bridge, and he knew that he was supposed to scream "Put me out of my misery," but he didn't know how many measures that part was. So he just held the note as long as he possibly could. He was having a really good day in the studio. He had a ton of control, and he got to that point and just let it go well into the next chorus. I don't remember exactly how far. And he's like, "I don't know how long just to scream that part." I'm like, "Dude, I'm not touching that vocal. That was amazing. I'm just going to rearrange the song around what you just did.""
I’m always in for overly complicated dice based drafts.Is there any interest in a Christmas/Holiday song draft?
Did I mention there would be dice involved?
We did a Xmas draft in 2016. The rules were overly complex and made minimal use of dice.I think Eephus has already done this though. I definitely have a Xmas draft Spotify playlist already with Good “Swing” Wenceslas.
Odd. It's from the same album as the previous song. I have the youtube link instead if you need it.@Charlie Steiner - I didn't see your's on Spotify for tonight's playlist.
I thought so too, and clicked the album after you posted that. Under a different song title?Odd. It's from the same album as the previous song. I have the youtube link instead if you need it.@Charlie Steiner - I didn't see your's on Spotify for tonight's playlist.

I thought of @zamboni when I crossed paths with this song by The Sadies. Imagine The Smithereens with a lead guitar straight outta Bakersfield.

Tonight??Tonight we get one of the 2 Mastodon songs that are so good they made the cut for my daughter's playlist.
Favorite song from them overall is a tough one, but this would be in the running. Straight ahead rocker that if not favorite song overall probably has my favorite 30secs of their music in it.

Good stuff - thanks. Hadn’t heard that before. Definitely also hear some influence from their fellow countrymen The Band.I thought of @zamboni when I crossed paths with this song by The Sadies. Imagine The Smithereens with a lead guitar straight outta Bakersfield.

I was hoping that was going to be on your list. I used to love that song.I just discovered that the Pointer SIsters made a recording for Sesame Street in 1976.
So here is a bonus track complete with animation.
I was juuuust a bit too old for Seame Street. I was ten when it started and living in Germany, so I didn't see any of it. Glad I could include it here. Maybe I should sub it in on the Spotify playlist, since one of my picks isn't on there.I was hoping that was going to be on your list.
