MixTape Draft - 6+ word titles. Finish your draft and listen to mixes! (2 Viewers)

This song is one of my favorite U2 songs. Top 3, and sometimes (like today) #1. I love the music in it, and I like the lyrics too (which Bono says is about rock star fame).

6.xx - Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me - U2
Batman Forever is easily the most embarrassing CD in my collection. Dont even think i bought it - though that was around the time i switched from coke to meth, so i was tweakin the whole yr - but i could not listen to Kiss From A Rose & HMTMKMKM too often

 
Time to get some bagpipes on my list. 

6.02 - AC/DC, It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Want to Rock and Roll)

Was thinking about another here, but this has more words in the title, more bagpipes, and I've heard the other one a billion times so I'm pretty tired of it. 

I'll link later. 
9yo Floppinho was just given this song to sing in his School of Rock band (AC/DC vs Sabbath). Also singing you shook me all night long and drumming on a few including black Sabbath :devilworship:.

 
I have a long one in my back pocket (hello!) for later shock and awe value... but feeling a little undersized now.
I'll have to get the longer songs that I know in now, because I'll probably lead the draft in songs with exactly 6 words by the time we're done. 

 
RD 6:  Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker) - The Rolling Stones

Had no idea this song was six words long, just always knew it as Heartbreaker.  I have always been more of a Beatles guy than a Stones fan - but I do like them plenty.  This song is classic Stones in their heyday.

same.

somebody keeps saying there aren't many hip-hop tracks that work... I"m no great hip-hop fan, but I've still got a lot of them without even really looking.

Not to nit-pik, but if I remember correctly the person is saying rap tracks not hip-hop. May be a slight difference.

 
I could be wrong, but as I looked over rap/hip hop albums, I saw less 6+ options compared to other genres. It was just my perception and could be wrong. 

 
true. 

plenty of rock songs, but not many roll songs out there.

6.* ... Unseen Power of the picket fence... Pavement

was about to go with another more slide-guitary track that I also love.. but changed my mind to go with the REM shout out.

eta: time after time was my least favorite song

I was surprised to find this, as I thought this format might get some more from that genre.  I think I just remembered long title b/c 1/2 ended with (featuring, X, Y, Z...) and seemed longer than they were.  I have a list of about 30 possible songs for my draft, and only 2 are rap.

Thanks for keeping up over the weekend.  We will start up with Rd 7 in the morning.  Hopefully those 4 recover from their weekend benders and post their picks tonight.

For one awful moment, I thought you meant "pictures" rather than "choices".

 
Catching up on the thread, I'm seeing some really nice picks this weekend. 

I'm currently sitting at a poker table at the Borgata, AC. I'll make my pick shortly.

 
This pick from the Illinois album reminded me of an exercise I participated in 12 years ago on another music message board. At that time it was rumored that Sufjan Stevens was going to release an album for each of the 50 states. A buddy of mine suggested we create a Sufjan album for each of our own states. Mine for Utah wasn't very good.  This was my favorite of the entrees--he even predicted it would be released this year:

Sufjan Stevens presents: The Stars At Night Are Big And Bright CLAP! CLAP! CLAP! CLAP! Deep in the Heart of Texas (2017) 
1. Carole Keeton McClellan Rylander Strayhorn is One Tough Grandma! 
2. Yikes!! The Day Laborers Have Invaded and Are Willing To Work For Thousands Less! 
3. Steers and Queers? Not in Austin. It's More Like Hippies and Yuppies! 
4. I Am Henry Lee Lucas III, I Am! 
5. It's Time To Mow and Edge The Grassy Knoll! 
6. There Are Rusted Cadillacs Partially Buried Along the Side of the Highway That Runs Through the Panhandle On the Way to Buddy Holly's Hometown! 
7. John Ross Ewing Was Not So Much Based on a Specific Person as a Composite of Various Dallas-Area Oil Magnates from the 1970's! 
8. The Galveston I Know Is Not Unlike the One Immortalized in Song by Glen Campbell, Except He Forgot to Mention the 1900 Storm! 
9. Houston! 
10. Help!! I Smell Tear Gas! I Hear Bullets! I am a Branch Davidian! 
11. Don't Mind the Scenery, Lance Rentzel's Just Airing Out His Weenie Again! 
12. Forget the Alamo...Remember the Sportatorium! 
13. The Next Person Who Mentions L.B.J. is Getting a Knee to the Groin! 
14. The Thing About the Red River is That It Isn't Really Red, But It Sure Would Be Cool If It Was! 
15. A Trip to Boystown Will Make You a Man, Albeit One With a Litany of Untreatable Sexually Transmitted Diseases Which Can Never Be Discussed in Mixed Company! 
16. Won't You Run Over Me With Your Mercedes, Clara Harris, Clara Harris? 
17. Dolph Briscoe Really Was Once Governor of Texas, and His Name Really Was Dolph! 
18. Ambient Noise is Leaking From Inside the Superconducting Supercollider, Despite the Fact That It Was Never Completed Due To Massive Cost Overruns! 
19. Back When They Filmed "Giant" in Marfa, Nobody Even Suspected Rock Hudson Was Gay! 
20. Don't Mess With Texas, or You'll Be Subject to a Fine for Littering! 
21. Billy Bob Thornton is From Arkansas, Not Texas! 
22. Virtually Every High School in San Antonio is Named After a Supreme Court Justice, Except for Souter!
 
Never heard this one or really ever saw what they looked like. :wub:
There's a fun SNL sketch where they make fun of the intricacy of the internal questions that the women ask the other women. It's really quite clever, but failed as a sketch. 

Anyway, cool that you liked it. I've always dug it.

That was from the last draft when one of the television timeouts discussed what I should use as an avatar.  Given the feedback early in that draft, I thought it appropriate - I kinda like it right now, so I'll stick with it.

 
that'd be great if I get the okay. I don't know how to post links tho :(
when you make a reply, notice the "chain" looking icon between U and the quote above. if you select a word, you can make that word then link to a website... but you have to copy the website address. or just copy the youtube address and paste it here. works too.
