I remember it showing up early in the countdown, but couldn't remember where. It is a good mood setter. I love the intro to it.I had Hells Bells really early to set the mood.didn't fully rank mine although the last 4 are pretty much my favorites.
Fcfs?
First come, first served.
I’m sleeping outside of Zegrass’ house overnight so I can get first choice.
Yeah, sorry. Not sure why I felt the need to type that out last night. NYT had some of the text messages and it was just too much for my gummy-addled brain to process.
Leaving for LA in an hour. Be back Sunday at noon.
beat me to it.
I'd vote no. Seems like that opens the door to producer, session musician, etc.
MAybe we could draw the line at songwriting, because this artist would be a lot of fun if so.
Oh well, in that case ...
I struggle with being a fan at times as well. He is a jerk.
I’ll be watching you.
Oh, you’re using that definition of songwriting.
At the expense of spotlighting, I had thought of doing songs with Steve Lukather doing session work. Or even the Wrecking Crew, although I had a ton of those with Simon & Garfunkel
I agree. Although I’d think if someone had the artist recording the song, they’d have preference to “claim” the song. For example, if I had Sinead O’Connor as my artist, I wouldn’t want the person ranking Prince songs to take the Sinead version of Nothing Compares 2U on their list. A Prince version of the song would be fine, just not the version done by Sinead.
Good call.
Nothing from The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway at all, huh. I know you said you weren't going to include the title track, but I wasn't expecting a complete shutout.
Well, get ready because I'm gonna do something similar and (I guess) piss off a whole bunch of folks in this thread.
Yeah, for some reason that album never did it for me. I guess I’ll have to give it another chance at some point.
It's definitely a challenge, but I figured over 90 minutes there would be SOMETHING that thrilled you. I had 3 songs from it in my top 31, which is less than each of the four Chicago double albums contributed to my top 31 there.
Yeah, I should have given it more of a chance in this process rather than writing off the whole album.
Yeah one very obvious omission from that album (not including title track) but obviously these lists are subjective.
Broken record and all, but Chicago was one of the best surprises for me in this playlist. Smart move by you kicking off the adventure with Hideaway and reeling in the dopes like me who had an ignorant view of Chicago based on the few sappy hits I heard. After I get through more playlists, I have them marked to try a couple full albums as well. I'm open to suggestions there too. No surprise coming from me that a couple of the rockers were my personal favorites. I really dug Hideaway and Poem 58. I've listened to Saturday in the Park enough that my 8yo let on a little groan when it came on yesterday again. 
Top to bottom there wasn't anything I actively disliked, and really liked way more than I thought I would - thanks again for the playlist!
If the person is concentrating on Prince the artist, definitely no Sinead, but if they are concentrating on Prince the songwriter then it should be, but zegras can sort all that stuff out lol
Did you see some of the artists the first go round? As long as you love the artist, roll with it. Bound to be at least a couple that roll with you. Maybe more. Plus your love and enthusiasm for an artist shines through and people appreciate positive passion.
Your Queen list was very cool.
It's a joke around there still to this day, and anybody who asks if they can play music in the kitchen we will reply "only if it's Clutch or Tool". Long story short, it's why they have always been in the background, but nothing I felt the urge to explore on my own. I am going to be listening to Blast Tyrant after I get through playlists. Loved everything off that. My other faves were the 1-2 punch of Arcadia/Juggernaut. I said it then - loved that Helmet feel, and it really brought me back to college when I was obsessed with Meantime for a bit. I see that only has 5-6 songs on that what I am guessing was an EP? Also can't beat the balls-out swagger of Gone Cold. Play that walking into the bar and play Juggernaut if there's a bar fight? Thanks for the music, gb!
if a few people want to be creative with it, let it be. Plenty of people will just be doing 31 songs by one band. There’s no “ruining” of the playlist - open to some subjective takes.
Exactly. It was refreshing to see a positive emphasis on their 80s output, which largely got ignored, especially in the US post Body Language.
I’d be into some one doing them. I like what I’ve heard but never dug deep.
I'll take a PM!
Could that be the band my clues referred to?
Exactly, @snellman - your Queen playlist rocked.
