Are you doing 1 hit wonders too because that's the 3rd song you've sniped from me.

I still sort of followed baseball then. I have no idea how that window for Detroit never wound up culminating in a championship. The Red Sox in '13 got tremendously lucky to beat them.

Neptunes + JT. Won't be the last time Pharrell makes an appearance at the house party.

Unreal. They were probably the best team over a 10 year span. There’s an alternate reality where they won 3 WS over that time. I have so many bittersweet memories of that team.

excellent selection. I think Crosseyed an Painless is on the short list of potential Talking Heads Mount Rushmore songs. Getting The Great Curve with it is icing. Side 1 of Remain in Light is incredible

6.18 - Light of Day b/w Roadrunner - The Barbusters (Joan Jett & The Blackhearts) - 1987
A rockin' Springsteen cover that was the title track for the 1987 movie starring Jett, Michael J. Fox, Gena Rowlands and Michael McKean.
There's a low res but watchable print of the movie on YouTube that I checked out over the weekend. It's a surprisingly gritty and unsentimental melodrama about a dysfunctional family in Cleveland. There's no romance and precious little redemption to be had. It's a Paul Schrader film so there's also a subtext of the conflict between puritanism and Rock 'n Roll. Fox and Jett play siblings who play in a bar band. They're both pretty good but Rowlands as their mother and the kid who plays Jett's son steal every scene they appear in.
The flipside is a Jonathan Richman cover that's not the best version but it's still a great jukebox song.

Living Legends
(2007)
living legends is a collective of several west coast rap groups and artists. I always associated most of them with backpack rap, though their flows and beats often tend toward more of a groove. Love the way they incorporated these samples.

Nope. I'm just picking the stuff from artists where I only like one of their songs or I don't want an album of it. And it has to go on a jukebox. No sad songs, please.

Wait, I was going to complement a couple of your picks, but you are saying you only like 1 Lorde song??

I did say OR. But I find Lorde's voice to be flat and uninteresting. I just really like that one song.Wait, I was going to complement a couple of your picks, but you are saying you only like 1 Lorde song??

6. Cher “Half Breed” 1973
https://youtu.be/zt9XDdzzp2k
Cher is from El Centro in the Imperial Valley. Both sides were against her since the day she was born.
ETA- not my favorite Cher song but I feel a connection to it as I met the writer at a wedding several years ago.

they have a bunch on various soundtracks, but i like that you chose one that was specifically for a movie and was left off their LPs. great song btw

And I will put on the version that is from the OST which was shorter, and I think with different drum?
After looking at my list, I am for sure more targeting stuff that was made for a movie or mostly known for that movie. IE- soundtracks like Dazed and Confused or Forrest Gump have great soundtracks, but it's just a GH album at the end of the day. There might be a couple of these on the jukebox, but currently most of my list is littered with original stuff (I think).

When I saw Radiohead in 2003, this was the only song in their set that I'd never heard of, because I was not the target audience for DiCaprio doing Shakespeare.

I probably wasn't either, but I remember watching it several times. IWhen I saw Radiohead in 2003, this was the only song in their set that I'd never heard of, because I was not the target audience for DiCaprio doing Shakespeare.

In broad music drafts like this, I don't usually make a grand plan. I jot down a few songs that I want, and then slowly add others as they come to mind. I rarely get blindsided this way.
What'd I Say was one of the few songs I'd jotted down.
