^ Oh wow. :rollin
Long Acronym, Eh?: Gentle Giant- Schooldays

Gentle Giant is a real popular prog act, but I’ve never gotten around  to going  through their stuff.  Sounds like I ought to get off my arse and do so, if this tune is any indicator of their quality!  It’s so full of cool bits and jiblets, not to mention the haunting big picture.  It’s very technical, but not just the soloing; the entire arrangement is often well off the kilter!  I don’t think I’ve ever heard a band with a sound like theirs. 

10
Glad you loved it! :) And yeah, the incredible technicality without just soloing is pretty much their signature, so you should like them. :D

Wow... gone for a week, and then two updates on one page.  Now we're talkin!

I'm confused though.  Is the song supposed dedicated to someone by the artist (eg, Take Away My Pain ... JP's dad), or are we picking any ole song, and then telling you who it's dedicated to.

Sent... even though it wasn't the song I really wanted to chose.  What I wanted to send wasn't on G/S or YT.  Oh well.  Maybe I'll get a chance to use it later.

Results will be in tonight or tomorrow.

Results are in.

starburns: Fish- The Company

Very good choice.  Sounds rather Genesis-like, though in a much poppier, more concise format.  The tune is quite catchy and the folksy, ye olde tyme English sound comes across very well, even in spite of the glossy production. 

8

Spiderman: Jazz Pistols- Three On The Floor

Hells yeah!  These guys play some fusion and they play it like it ought to be played: very well.  The way they're playing is near mechanical, but it's groovy.  I could jam to this sorta stuff for :long period of time:.  That drumming, man. 

9

800 pound Gorille: Frank Turner- Peggy Sang The Blues

This was good and catchy.  The basswork is tasty.  Seems like 90% of everything is folksy rock, this included, but it stands out as its own thing.  You know, it's a dude making good music and telling stories.  Can't say no to that. 

7

LieLowTheKraftDinner: Susanne Sundf(/)r- Father Father

Impressive.  Very beautiful choral tune.  This sounds like what I'd expect to hear in a church.  (Not that I know what churches are like or anything.)  It leaves me wanting more. 

10

obscure: Marcus Miller- Bruce Lee

Now that's some funky music, there.  Marcus Miller is a man who can slap the bass at least an adequate level, and he dominates this track, naturally.  The horns add to the good juicy riff/theme.  The production's a bit on the smooth side, but the music is jammin. 

9

Freemason: Ghost- Ritual

This is so 80s.  It's heavy, catchy metal that alludes back to early, melodic stuff that's just as much about making memorable tunes as it is about pounding a listener's skull in.  This tune promises fun and delivers.

8

káre bear: Bright Eyes- First Day of My Life

Bare-bones folk, just a dude and his guitar.  The melodies are very pleasant, making for a memorable and soothing tune.  There's a real sentimental feel to the whole thing.  I approve.

8

Kim Bong Ill: Spirit of the West- Home for a Rest

This sounds like a bunch of rural 1800s Scots, had they been sent to the present, heard some punk music, and decided to emulate it for whatever reason.  It's super-fun and puts a smile on my face.  Would dance to it.  If I wasn't an uncoordinated spaz.   :P

9

noog: Arcade Fire- Keep The Car Running

It seems Arcade Fire's all the rage among young white males aged 16 to 25.  I'm not familiar with their music at all, until now.  I enjoyed it.  It's very 80s pop-rock sounding.  Almost like, say, Bruce Springsteen or U2.  Very catchy and accessible. 

7

Good job, all.  You have kept on sending in a continuous stream of music I've enjoyed.  Only 5 more rounds of this; don't blow it!

Wankings:

káre bare- 37
Blackman- 36
The Champ- 34
Kim Bong- 34
starburns- 34
noog- 32
Gorille- 32
obscure- 31
Manspider- 31

Round 5 is:

(F)I've heard everything, man!

Take an artist who've you've heard everything by.  Just to make it easier on y'all, the minimum requirement is having heard all of their studio albums.  Still, if you've heard EVERYTHING, that's best.

Then, pick a song that SUMS IT ALL UP!

Nah, that'd be too easy.

Thought I knew you, but it could be any one of a dozen bands... depending on what Cup knows.

I predict .... Glenn Campbell.

Its interesting to see that "Father Father" is the Susanne Sundfor song that people seem to be sending in the roulettes. I'm not saying that it's a bad song, but personally I think the album has 5-6 better songs. :P
