[Limp Ditka]

Rock 'N' Roll Records (Ain't Selling This Year) - Supersuckers

Ain't No Rest For The Wicked - Cage The Elephant

 

[El Floppo]

The Orwells - They Put A Body In The Bayou


I don't love this band as much as some of you do but I do really like this song from their new album.

I started typing that one up when I took Gil instead. Great tune

 

[KarmaPolice]

@JZilla can take 2 when he is ready then. 

 

[JZilla]

Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel - Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)

Sparks - This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both Of Us

and it ain't me who's gonna leave

 

[KarmaPolice]

For Mrs. R via PM:

9.03: "The Future's So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades"  -  Timbuk3

I will post in a second.  @Dr. Octopus and I are both OTC. 

 

[El Floppo]

Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel - Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)

Sparks - This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both Of Us

and it ain't me who's gonna leave

Love that first one... never knew the artist or title

 

[KarmaPolice]

Alright I guess I will grab a Neil Young before Binky snags them all:

9.05:  NEIL YOUNG -  WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY LIFE?

LINK

 

[KarmaPolice]

@simey is up!

 

[JZilla]

I'd never seen that Sparks video.. could anybody look less thrilled to be there?  Killer tune though IMO

 

[simey]

Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel - Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)

 I was not expecting this snipe.

 

[JZilla]

 I was not expecting this snipe.

Nobody expects the snipish inquisition 

 

[simey]

9.xx - Dance Me To The End of Love (live) - Leonard Cohen

NV, when you are putting songs in the community mix, I want the live version off of the album "Cohen Live."  It is the same version as in the link. Thanks!

 

[simey]

@Steve Tasker is up

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

Ain't No Rest For The Wicked - Cage The Elephant

I've heard a couple CtE songs I kinda liked -- what's a good starting point for them?

 

[Eephus]

For Mrs. R via PM:

9.03: "The Future's So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades"  -  Timbuk3

I will post in a second.  @Dr. Octopus and I are both OTC. 

On my list as a two song segue w/ the War on Drugs track picked earlier today.

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

I assumed people said that wouldn't count b/c it would be 4 words, not b/c USA didn't count for a word.  Probably safe to stay away at this point in the draft anyway. 

That, and anyone who drafts any ####### Steve Miller is automatically DQ'd

 

[Hov34]

The Orwells - They Put A Body In The Bayou


I don't love this band as much as some of you do but I do really like this song from their new album.

I usually like what Eephus picks even if I've never heard of the song (or country it came from) so very rarely does he snipe me, but this was on my short list and my "spotify" cheat sheet. So bravo old man.

 

[El Floppo]

Alright I guess I will grab a Neil Young before Binky snags them all:

9.05:  NEIL YOUNG -  WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY LIFE?

LINK

Pretty sure you could do an all Neil playlist for this and have plenty to spare.

 

[KarmaPolice]

simey said Dr. Oct said to skip when up, so @The Dreaded Marco can join Tasker OTC>  

 

[Hov34]

I think we went through that one pre-draft with Steve Miller's "Livin in the USA"

I assumed people said that wouldn't count b/c it would be 4 words, not b/c USA didn't count for a word.  Probably safe to stay away at this point in the draft anyway. 

What about "R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A."?

That's like 9 words, amiright?

 

[simey]

simey said Dr. Oct said to skip when up, so @The Dreaded Marco can join Tasker OTC>  

@Dr. Octopus   <--- His shoutout

 

[simey]

What about "R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A."?

That's like 9 words, amiright?

   

 

[The Dreaded Marco]

Go ahead and skip me.  I'll pick tonight.

 

[KarmaPolice]

I guess that means @Waingro can go.

 

[Limp Ditka]

I've heard a couple CtE songs I kinda liked -- what's a good starting point for them?

I always thought that first self titled album is solid. Since then I haven't paid much attention outside of their singles 

 

[Steve Tasker]

9.07 - Tame Impala - "The Less I Know the Better"

Music video is borderline NSFW.

 

[Eephus]

I usually like what Eephus picks even if I've never heard of the song (or country it came from) so very rarely does he snipe me, but this was on my short list and my "spotify" cheat sheet. So bravo old man.

If I'm sniping anyone approaching the midway point in the draft, that's a good sign of scarcity in this format

 

[Waingro]

Lotta Stevie to choose from, glad this is still around.

Stevie Wonder - I Was Made To Love Her

 

[simey]

@Bonzai and @Binky The Doormat are up

 

[PIK95]

That, and anyone who drafts any ####### Steve Miller is automatically DQ'd

Wait, what?  I love SMB!

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

What about "R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A."?

That's like 9 words, amiright?

Yes!   In that vein, here's my round twelveteen pick   

 

[Eephus]

Wait, what?  I love SMB!

Don't be talkin bout my Milwaukee homie

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

Wait, what?  I love SMB!

Man.  I thought we were friends   

 

[Hov34]

9.07 - Tame Impala - "The Less I Know the Better"

Love that whole album, took it last draft so this snipe doesn't hurt as much.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Love that whole album, took it last draft so this snipe doesn't hurt as much.

I debated not picking it for that reason, but I can't recall drafting their music in the past so I went with it.  It's such a good album.

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

I'm offline until my kid goes to bed tonight.  Skip me and I'll get a pick in later this evening

 

[Northern Voice]

9.07 - Tame Impala - "The Less I Know the Better"

Music video is borderline NSFW.

I figured the other long one from these guys would go first.

 

[sn0mm1s]

Not sure who is on skip... am I OTC?

 

[Eephus]

I debated not picking it for that reason, but I can't recall drafting their music in the past so I went with it.  It's such a good album.

I've tried multiple times to get into Parker's more recent stuff.  I can appreciate his artistic direction but I like the old songs better.

 

[Steve Tasker]

I figured the other long one from these guys would go first.

They have quite a few 6-letter song titles....

 

[wikkidpissah]

6.17 - Sufjan Stevens - "The Black Hawk War, or, How to Demolish an Entire Civilization and Still Feel Good About Yourself in the Morning, or, We Apologize for the Inconvenience but You're Going to Have to Leave Now, or, 'I Have Fought the Big Knives and Will Continue to Fight Them Until They Are Off Our Lands!'"

One of the best things about music is that occasionally you get the chance to fall in love without being unfaithful to anyone. I'm a lil behind in my 6+WMTD listening and have been listening to this fella since i linked to this this morning. Oh, the mystery! The mystery that is the beauty others find to serve in a way only they can. The mystery that i (poor ol man) havent heard him in the 15+ years he's been doing it is only matched by my wonder that a producer has not managed to corral that into a greatness for the many to be improved by. The mystery that people so willingly stop at the doorstep of SO MUCH MORE. Oh, the mystery!!

 

[KarmaPolice]

Not sure who is on skip... am I OTC?

Bonzai and Binky are OTC for about 15mins more.  I will have to look to see who is after that.

Eephus and sn0mm1s

 

[KarmaPolice]

I guess we are on to @Eephus and @sn0mm1s.  

 

[Eephus]

9.xx Los Fabulosos Cadillacs - Should I Stay Or Should I Go

I'm going with an Argentinian version because I couldn't fit this band onto my desert island under either L or F and because drafting obscure covers of overplayed songs is the nerdy thing to do.

 

[sn0mm1s]

Round 9

A Pain That I'm Used To - Depeche Mode

 

[Yo Mama]

Pretty sure @dal_boys_phan and @Hov34 are up. Either on auto skip?

 

[dal_boys_phan]

Not on auto skip - will have my pick up in a few minutes

 

[Eephus]

i'm on autoskip
