Shuke's 1400 favorite songs by 1400 different artists. (3 Viewers)

Were they even known?  How have I never heard of them until a year ago?
I don't remember much about them - only that they hot and it was the only all-girl band around.  A couple of my friends that had a lot more albums than me - had a couple of their albums because they were sweet lookin'.   It was crazy that they sounded as good as many of the popular rock groups at the time.  

 
I like how I just post songs and you guys post a bunch of stuff about them.  Takes pressure off me from having to have a write-up for every song.

You just learned from K, that no one would read them.

Unfortunately, I doubt anyone reads what we post about your songs, either.

It's really absurd, in a way - a good way tho.

 
back of card factoid:  Muscle-bound tough guy, Glenn Danzig claims to be 5' 3".  
- Also known to demand french onion soup on his rider for his bogus "sore throat" when attempting to get out playing gigs.

- Also buys kitty litter by the metric ton, if photos are to be believed.

- Also know to have been seen screaming "HERE I AM MOTHER####ER, JUST CLEANING UP MY ####### BRICKS #####!” at his neighbor's house for two hours, after the city of Los Feliz was called on his #### for hoarding bricks in the front yard of his own ####-hole abode.

- Apparently also loves chocolate cake and...red vines?

Saw them first on one of those Saturday morning network shows. Couldn’t take my eyes and ears off the lead singer. She is an incredible talent. While I don’t love the genre, she carries that band. They really scratch an itch when I get a hankering for that type of music. A la Christina Perri (who must be appearing on this list soon), kind of a guilty pleasure outside my usually listening sphere (70s prog rock).

 
424. King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King

I know a lot of music nerds geek out about these guys.  I love this song, but haven't really been able to otherwise get into them.  Give me something.
I'll give ya the back a my hand!!!!!

Seriously: King Crimson - 21st Century Schizoid Man - filmed live in 2015.

423. Alvvays - Archie, Marry Me

I must look like a moron when I sing this.
Then tape it and post it!

I like the song too.

I think MOCS nailed it - but rather than just one song - these guys represent album rock where you just put it on and listen to it as an entire album.  

It's a shame that many people younger than 30 or so probably never really listened to albums all the way through - and certainly not as a regular practice.  There are so many deep cuts we all love here because you heard them as part of an album.  Think of the amount of times you hear a song and you automatically know what's coming next because of listening to the album as a whole for years.

This is one of those where I don't know which is the song and which is the band name, but I really really want the band name to be Pigeons Playing Ping Pong and if it is they're my favorite band.
Band name always listed first.

my intense love for this song knows ZERO effin' limits ... a Beatlesque romp that should make the Gallagher brothers shook ... bonus points for the stripey shirted geetar man sporting the same pomp hairstyle that i do, though points summarily detracted for him acting the proper ##### foo' in that bathroom scene - meh, #### the vid, the song is quantum #### to the max -  R.I.P. Jim Ellison, you left a phenomenal mark here that few could hope to top.  just friggin' brilliant.

Pat DiNizio lived locally in the next town over so he played a lot of free shows at parks around the area. I went and saw him two summers ago with my dogs at a park and he told some great stories and played a few Smithereens songs but mostly classic rock covers with his band, the Scotch Plainsmen (he lived in Scotch Plains). He was really huge and had to read from lyric sheets for a lot of songs but sounded great. He died a couple of months later, so glad I decided to finally take advantage of him always playing around the area.

my favorite is Behind the Wall if Sleep.

Streaming services are great in that there’s so much music available at your fingertips - but I often think how the album is a lost art form and it makes me sad. The younger kids, and even my brother in law who is my age, just skip around from song to song or play the “stations” on Amazon while I’m the only one playing albums.
