November Rain was the GNR tune here. 

Yes, it was.  

 

[shuke]

Are we pointing out individual bands yet? Anyone that doesn’t think Tear Stained Eye is Son Volt’s best song is a complete moron.

Good tune.  Not their best, in my opinion.  Which I believe is what this thread was about.  But hey, thanks for your whole two posts in the thread.

Thanks for counting. It’s ok that your opinion is wrong.

 

[shuke]

missing ...

the Pogues, Dropkick Murphys, Flogging Molly, Black 47, the Rumjacks ... why you hate the Irish?

Nick Cave, Kylie Minogue, Icicle Works ... why ya hate OzzieOzzieOzzie?  

Alanis, Avril, FeFe ... ok, you can hate Canada   

Nick Cave pick 880.

For some of these others, would really appreciate some suggested songs.

[shuke]

Fug

So good.  Totally forgot about this tune.  

Gawd

This song was my pick 997

 

[shuke]

We definitely have a lot of crossover in our musical tastes.  

You ranked a lot of great 80's artists but not The Chameleons:

Swamp Thing

Don't Fall

Up the Down Escalator

You might like these guys.  

Thanks.  Don't think I remember them.  Sound good.

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

So man, are you feeling the afterglow yet?

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

You should - you earned it.

 

[shuke]

How the group "Live"?  Their "Throwing Copper" album still stands up nicely today - love the entire album.  Plenty to pick from for these guys.  Thoughts?  

I Alone

Lightning Crashes

Waitress

#### Towne

Dolphins Cry

Three of these links are to Lightning Crashes.  That would probably make a top 2000 list.

 

[shuke]

Everclear - Santa Monica https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MW6E_TNgCsY

One of the last 30 songs cut.

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

Three of these links are to Lightning Crashes.  That would probably make a top 2000 list.

So much for the old wive's tale that lightning only strikes the same place once.

Nice work, Bink!

 

[shuke]

Dead Kennedys - Too Drunk to #### https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJ7pgElCPXE

on my list as well - stuck out 

Holiday in Cambodia

California Uber Alles

Sorry guys.  Not my thing.

 

[shuke]

Steppenwolf - Magic Carpet Ride

Holy crap how did I miss Steppenwolf?

The Pusher would be my pick.

I may have to officially extend this to 1050 songs.

 

[Binky The Doormat]

Three of these links are to Lightning Crashes.  That would probably make a top 2000 list.

I went back and fixed them.  Or at least I think I did.  

 

[shuke]

 Firefall - Strange Way

Nice call.  Although bad link.

 

[shuke]

Primus - Wynona's Big Brown Beaver https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYDfwUJzYQg

Another in my last 10 cut.  
 

Are you in my head or something?

 

[shuke]

or Radioactive.

Damn!

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

I went back and fixed them.  Or at least I think I did.  

The bold has always been the tricky part for me. 

 

[Mister CIA]

Holy crap how did I miss Steppenwolf?

The Pusher would be my pick.

I may have to officially extend this to 1050 songs.

Everclear >> Steppenwolf.

On my cut list.

 

[Binky The Doormat]

Who does this version?

 

[zamboni]

Nice call.  Although bad link.

My bad - fixed original post.

 

[Mister CIA]

Who does this version?

You almost changed my mind.

 

[shuke]

The Modern Lovers - Roadrunner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gy88-5pc7c8

I was about to pound my head in the wall if I had forgotten this.  

It's pick 490.

 

[shuke]

Sebadoh.

Not Too Amused

Brand New Love

The Freed Pig

Their album released last month, 30 years after their first, is pretty damn good.

Awesome.  Should I know who this is?

 

[shuke]

Greta Van Fleet - Black Smoke Rising

I originally had Highway Tune on my list.  But every time I listen to them, I find myself saying, "Why don't I just listen to Zeppelin instead?".  Way too derivative.  

Gary Wright - Love is Alive

Damn, great call.

 

[Man of Constant Sorrow]

Cheech & Chong - Earache My Eye

 

[shuke]

So man, are you feeling the afterglow yet?

I was looking to relax tonight.  Now I have 40 songs to listen to.

Well, if time  is an issue ... 

Rocky Horror Time Warp

It seemed fortune had smiled on shuke and MoCS and that
they had found the assistance their plight required. Or had they?

 It's just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane
Let's do the Time Warp again
Let's do the Time Warp again

With a bit of a mind flip
You're into the time slip
And nothing will ever be the same
You're spaced out on sensation
Like you're under sedation

Let's do the Time Warp again
Let's do the Time Warp again

 

[Binky The Doormat]

I was looking to relax tonight.  Now I have 40 songs to listen to.

[Binky The Doormat]

we discussed this via PM ...I didn't hear you say no.

Eagles of Death Metal - Miss Alissa

They have a nice selection on spotify, but this is where I would start.

 

[Brony]

I missed these through the countdown.  Great picks:

375    .     Dinosaur Jr. - Start Choppin'

415    .     INXS - Don't Change

600    .     Gordon Lightfoot - If you could read my mind 

635    .     Social Distortion - Ball and Chain

642    .     Neutral Milk Hotel - Two Headed Boy

653    .     Toto - Africa (though I would have gone with Hold The Line)

Not worth doing a lot of coulda shoulda. It's your 1000. But, if you like that early ska stuff, you might like:

Train to Skaville - The Ethiopians

Any English Beat - Ranking Full Stop is good place to start

If you like that Sun Kil Moon, Beth Orton, Andrew Bird stuff, you might like:

Belle and Sebastien - Marx and Engels
