Maybe Harmony you should take up the certainly annoying task to update each day the thread title with the kind of song requested, it will draw better attention to the thread I guess....

Post by: pg1067 on April 06, 2020, 12:58:40 PM: The ABC Café – Red and Black - from Les Misérables

The Green Manalishi (with the Two-Pronged Crown) - Judas Priest

Interestingly, Rush did four songs with "red" in the title ("Barchetta," "Sector A," "Lenses," and "Tide"), but no song with any other color in the title (unless you count the Feedback version of "Summertime Blues," but that's a different meaning of the word).

Also, while I don't like the song, I'm surprised that no one has yet mentioned "Purple Rain."

For the '92 show, one of the security guards was a meat cutter at the store I was working in. He was stationed in the section right on the side of the stage where The Edge was. He waved us through for the show, and when The Edge came to ..the ..um edge.. he was about 20 feet from us. I regret not having my camera for that.

I thought the '87 show at the Garden was really cool. I recognized many of the songs, but it was cool just seeing them.

I hadn't seen that before; that was REALLY good. I could do without the singer (that's on me, not him; is that Doug Henhorn or whatever his name is?), but Joe smokes that song up and down.

I didn't know you saw U2 Tim. I'll assume in Foxborough?

I saw the War tour in the Orpheum in 83 and The Unforgettable Fire tour in 85 at The Centrum.

Is that Orpheum show the 'legendary' one? Didn't they play a show there that essentially broke them in the States?

I saw the first leg of The Joshua Tree show in Hartford ("Outside is America... outside is HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT!" Uh, Bono, have you BEEN out there?

I didn't know you saw U2 Tim. I'll assume in Foxborough?

I saw the War tour in the Orpheum in 83 and The Unforgettable Fire tour in 85 at The Centrum.

Is that Orpheum show the 'legendary' one? Didn't they play a show there that essentially broke them in the States?

I saw the first leg of The Joshua Tree show in Hartford ("Outside is America... outside is HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT!" Uh, Bono, have you BEEN out there? You wouldn't be so excited about it... :)) and that was a game-changing show. Don't think I've ever felt that kind of energy before.

That was an earlier show. Though that show I was at was aired on WBCN.

Post by: DragonAttack on April 07, 2020, 01:16:05 PM: before the change, (and trying not to hog all of these early), I'll add 'One' by U2 (my wife's favorite song of the band). As to U2, I liked some of 'Boy' and 'October', loved 'War' and some of 'The Unforgettable Fire'. The Red Rocks video of 'Sunday Bloody Sunday' was superb. I thought 'Joshua Tree' was a bit timid at first. I simply went to see a concert, but found it as an 'experience'. 'Where The Streets Have No Name' is one of the best openers ever. And then at the end was '40'...Edge playing bass, Adam lead guitar, Bono walks off first, and then The Edge, and then Clayton, while Larry is still playing drums to the 50,000+ singing the 'how long' bit. And then the crowd keeps singing for minutes after he finishes. Next to Queen's 'We Will Rock/We Are The Champions' ('God Save The Queen tape).....nothing else still gives me those goose bumps. Thanks for the prior stories.

Other numbers: 1984 by any number of artists, but loved the one by Spirit back in the 60s.

And...for good or bad, Revolution #9, which I did listen to on occasion after 'indulging'...

Van Halen-saw them in the winter, so there's that association, but the tunes are great as well for blaring with the windows down. A couple jump to mind...
'Dance The Night Away', 'Intruder/Oh Pretty Woman' and 'Dancing in the Streets' (along with the original by Martha and the Vandellas). Same goes with The Cars, epecially 'Magic'. "Summer, summer, summer......'

one last one for me...Queen's 'Keep Passing The Open Windows'

(btw...this distraction is proving just that. Thanks for the idea and letting me play along. This will be a fun set of tracks to reference later on).

Day 4 - A song that reminds you of someone you'd rather forget

The way this is phrased is interesting. There isn't really anyone who has been in my life that I'd "rather forget."

In 1990-91, I had a girlfriend, and about the only things we ever did was go out for dinner, rent movies from Blockbuster, and go to a bowling alley that was basically next door to her apartment complex to sing karaoke in the bar. We were two of several regulars, and there are a ton of songs that were sung there that remind me of her (although most of them aren't songs I'd hear in my average life):

Angel of the Morning - Juice Newton
King of the Road - Roger Miller
Delta Dawn - Bette Midler (??)
Sherrie - The Four Seasons (??)

Also, most of the songs that were on the Phil Collins live album "Seriously" (or whatever it was called) remind me of her because we listened to that album a lot.

I Saw Red by Warrant reminds me of a different ex-girlfriend (although I still really like that song).

That makes ME want to dance?

Pretty much nothing, but...back in the day...a lot of quasi-glam metal stuff, but the first song that came to mind was Van Halen's Dance the Night Away.

Post by: Anguyen92 on April 10, 2020, 08:46:16 PM: Steven Wilson - Permanating

I mean this tone of this song along with the music video of him playing the song with Bollywood dancers around him. It has an infectious feeling to it that makes me want to dance.

I'll add one more. This song from a Japanese band. Bump of Chicken - 新世界 (translated to New World). It even has the phrase, "Baby, I love you dancing."

Post by: pg1067 on April 11, 2020, 12:31:33 PM: Another one...

Rock Lobster by the B-52's.

Sometime in 1989 or 1990, some friends of mine and I drove down to spend the day in Tijuana, Mexico. I think it was 3 guys and 3 girls, and none of us were couples. We ended up at some rooftop bar with a dance floor. I swear we were there for 4-5 hours, and one of the girls spent pretty much the entire time on the dance floor. And it felt like Rock Lobster got played about every 30 minutes.

Post by: Cool Chris on April 11, 2020, 01:01:00 PM: When I was in my 20s one of my regular weekend haunts was a club that had an 80s dance floor. I was there often enough, and the DJ was predictable enough, that I not only knew all the songs they would play, but the sequence of many of them. Rock Lobster was a nightly song, I knew about what part of the night it would be played, and planned my piss break around it.

Post by: Harmony on April 14, 2020, 01:18:07 PM: Day 10 - A song that makes you sad

Pity the Child - Murray Head

From the musical Chess - written by half of Abba and Tim Rice. A song about a boy who grew up knowing his parents didn't give a shit about him who goes on to become one of the best chess players of the world. The song starts off softly just his voice and the piano. The orchestra adds in and then the choir. It ends up loud, mad, bitter and yet triumphant in a hard rock crescendo. It never fails to bring a tear to my eye and it has for 36 years now.

Pity the Child - Murray Head

Cool never seen that before, don't think I've heard anything from Chess to be honest.

I've said this before here, but my first experience with Jesus Christ Superstar was a college play. I loved it and bought the 1970 recording. I knew Deep Purple, so Ian Gillan was familiar to me. The rest of the names in the liner notes were not. There are also no pictures. Whatever, that's fine. Then I saw the 1973 movie. Kinda cool, realized it was a different cast (other than Barry Dennen and Elliman). Judas was black, which made sense, since the guy on the 1970 recording was black. Wait... huh? He's not black? But, he sings with so much.... soul! How is the Judas on that recording not black?!

Chess is amazing and, fun fact, it's by the two guys from ABBA. You may want to check both the London and the Broadway editions, they're quite different and unique in their own way. Pity the Child, still to this day, is THE golden standard for every rock tenor performer.

One Last Goodbye - Anathema (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5znnV1XLLEM)

This live version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yiq54bBKHzQ) always makes me well up. The song was written about the death of the mother of 2 of the bands members and the emotion clearly gets to the singer Vincent. The song has special meaning to me as well.

I love JCS too. London cast is the bomb. So you recognize Tim Rice from JCS as well or was that a coincidence? I'd be surprised if you never heard the song One Night in Bangkok - which was also Murray Head from Chess. It kind of made the rounds as a single back in the 80s (maybe you are way younger than I am?) and a lot of people knew that song but didn't know about the musical Chess. Chess is great. It's kind of dated now, but who doesn't love a good cold war drama with a chess championship as the battleground? ;)

I was a big fan of the 80s TV show Family Ties and they played this song on a few episodes with Michael J Fox's college girlfriend (and real-life wife) when they began dating and later when she left him on the show.

Braveheart soundtrack - probably the most emotional movie soundtrack that I've heard. James Horner hit a grand slam with it. I know people give the movie shit because of some of the factual inaccuracies, but I still love the movie for what it is and man does that soundtrack add so much to that movie. Specifically when Wallace sees first-hand when Robert the Bruce betrayed him when it comes to a song that makes me sad.

James Horner wrote amazing film scores. I've never seen Braveheart.

If you can accept the movie for what it is and not get bent out of shape that it's not a complete accurate portrayal of Wallace's life and activities, I think it's a fantastic movie. It's a bit long but worth it. I only know of The Patriot for other Horner scores. Guess I need to see what else he's done.

I feel the same way. Of course, like your example, I will get sad if the song reminds me of an experience from my life, or a memory of a film or something else that makes me sad.

Amazing Grace on bagpipes isn't inherently sad, but damn if hearing it doesn't make me think of Spock in that torpedo tube.

I was in a bad place when I first watched Ordinary People. When Conrad and his dad talk at the end, and the shot of them hugging on the porch, well I lost it. So now, Pachabel(sp?)'s Canon in D is an instant tear-jerker. My wife suggested that song for our wedding, and I said "NO! That is the Ordinary People song! And if I cry at our wedding, I want it to be because I am happy, not because I am thinking about Conrad and his dad!"

Interesting comments. The main riff and the "shifting cloud" sections are nothing but variations on the E-minor scale, and the chorus is mostly shifting between G and F. Not a lot of note selection involved (like there is on TFTO). I love the song, but the "shifting cloud" section occasionally bogs things down.

Songs that have been overplayed by classic rock stations like Stairway, Freebird, Hotel California; I love them all but probably skip more than listen.

In that vein, I'll go with "Carry On My Wayward Son", never tired of it.

Day 11 - A song you never tire of hearing
Not a very interesting choice for this forum I guess but...

Learning to Live - Dream Theater (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hA_MqPRvsJc)

I think it's interesting and a great choice. :)

I'll choose Katatonia - The Racing Heart. It's been my hand washing song and I'm not at all tired of it.

Day 12 - A song from your preteen years

Well...I turned 13 in October 1980 but didn't start listening to popular/rock music until the following year. Thus, if this is asking about a song that I heard/liked before I turned 13, I'd be limited to classical music, TV/movie theme songs and John Denver or Peter, Paul & Mary songs. If that's the case, I'll go with Calypso by John Denver - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZonmQZG0GQ

On the other hand, if we're simply talking about songs released before I turned 13, then I'll go with Gates of Delirium by Yes.

"Beneath the ground the dirty brown writhing things called worms interpreted the pitter patter from above as rainfall. Rainfall in worm world means two things, mating and bath time. Both of these experiences were thoroughly enjoyable to the worm colony. Within seconds the entire surface of the park was a mass of dirty, brown, soggy, writhing forms.

Post by: Cool Chris on April 18, 2020, 02:07:32 PM: I had two requests for my walk-up music at my wedding.

One, I realized, was a bit of a pipe dream. The Ecstasy of Gold (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3IlqY1CbI0), from The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly, when Tuco finally finds the graveyard and goes on his frantic search for the tomb. I thought that had a certain grandeur to it.

Two, the one I ended up using, is Canzonetta sull'aria (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Hfe_1Fny-Q), from Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro. It's the song Andy plays over the loudspeaker in Shawshank Redemption. "I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don't want to know. I like to think it is about something so beautiful it can't be expressed in words."

I don't regret my choice. And beyond that, I didn't have any musical requests.

I don't know that I'd necessarily pick the same song if I had to do it over, but for the first dance at my wedding in January 1996, we went with the cassette single version of Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe's Quartet, part iv: I'm Alive -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlGHklW_ZII&t=109s

Ok - Day 15 - A song you like that's a cover by another artist.

Most covers: I only like the original or only like the cover (e.g., I like Priest's version of The Green Manalishi, but the Fleetwood Mac original sucks hard).

I'll go with Cross-Eyed Mary, originally by Jethro Tull, and as covered by Iron Maiden. I much prefer the Maiden version, but the original's not bad.

Feeling Good - Muse (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmwRQqJsegw), a cover of Nina Simone's version. I only just realised that her song was itself a cover and it was originally written by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse for a musical.

Somehow forgot Van Halen. Three of the five songs of theirs I love (these three and Running with the Devil and Ain't talking About Love) are covers. Strange.

My favorite is easily The Who doing Summertime Blues. I've said elsewhere here they took the core of the song and made it sound like a quintessential Who song.

Other than the snippet in Full Metal Jacket, I have literally never heard the Nancy Sinatra version anywhere. Ever.

Megadeth knocked it out. The Dudes version is much cleaner and they played that version live for a few years. It was great.

I had the picture disc of Piece of Mind, which had Mary as the last song on side 1 (following Die With Your Boots On). For the longest time, I had no idea it wasn't on the regular version. Not sure why I didn't keep that disc when I dumped my vinyl.

Hmmm...tough question. I did karaoke a lot back in the early 90s, but my go to song was Dust in the Wind and don't recall any duets. I recall one guy doing Sherry (by the Four Seasons) with a friend. One guy absolutely nailed the high parts, and the other guy sang other parts (I'm not particularly familiar with the song). I could also do Ebony and Ivory with me doing the Stevie Wonder parts in the style of Eddie Murphy on SNL. There's other stuff that has come to mind that isn't written as a duet, but which I've envisioned doing with harmony vocals, but I can't think of anything right now.

Note that I actually have done this as a duet a handful of times. My friend Rachel and I would always do this whenever our group of friends ended up at a bar where there was karaoke, and we would always fall on the ground at the end of the song like they do in the movie. Hehe. :hat

I would pay to see videos of this if they existed (and I mean that in a truly complementary way). I went to a few midnight showings, my ex was a huge fan, and we even hosted a few parties at our home with bed sheets on the furniture and a tarp on the floor, in order to make for an easier cleanup from the water, rice, toast etc that was tossed about.

Karoake: I did it once 14 years ago after a buddy and I won a two man golf scramble. Alice Cooper 'Billion Dollar Babies'. I can still do a good Alice, he did Donovan. He then floored everyone doing Journey's 'Open Arms' (an octave lower) and won the contest. Hell, I wish I had a video of that night (RIP Bobby).

Had to go into my library and I have 24 albums from my birth year. Some other highlights besides 2112:

Rainbow - Stargazer
Queen - Tie Your Mother Down
Led Zeppelin - Achilles Last Stand
Kansas - Carry On Wayward Son
Boston - The entire Boston album
Judas Priest - Victim Of Changes
Eagles - Hotel California / The Last Resort
Blue Oyster Cult - (Don't Fear) The Reaper
AC/DC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap / Big Balls

I'll be honest, most of these are a surprise to me. Not that I have them, just never knew most were birth year songs.

I was going through my thrash phase, and anything with synths was a no go for me. But the brilliant songwriting and Neil's finest lyrical album ever eventually won me over. That was THE album that convinced me that great music was great music...synths or not.

Day 19 - A song that makes you think about life

So up until 2018, my answer would've probably been 'Time' by Pink Floyd. But when both my parents died in 2018, I heard David Crosby's 'Your Own Ride' and now that song probably makes me think about life the most. I think of it as a message from me to my children. And it's a message from my parents to me. I cry literally every time I hear it (and I'm certain that number is in the hundreds by now.) Crosby wrote it for his son, Django. Gets me right in the feels.

I Will Go

They are a bit connected, in my case. Regarding A Flash Before My Eyes, I was in a brutal car accident that left me hospitalized for a month and a half. Made me really think about things.

In terms of I Will Go, I vaguely remember waking up in the ICU from my accident with a host of friends and family all surrounding me. This is also a track that really tries hard to bring me to tears every time I hear it.

Alice in Chains - Don't Follow. Never did drugs so I took it at face value. When I left my friends after high school to go to college I took it really hard, and it was the year Jar of Flies came out. "Say goodbye, don't follow" is what I kept saying to myself. At the time I took it for them to not follow me, but in retrospect maybe I was the one who shouldn't have followed them.

Lately, I've thinking about things, especially when my father is now at a certain age, and these kinds of lyrics hit me hard and get me contemplating about where life is going to now and what direction do I want life to go towards. Just great lyrics from this band.

"Just the other day I looked at my father. It was the first time I saw he'd grown old. Canyons through his skin and the rivers that made them. Carved the stories I was told."

"Son, I have watched you fade in. You will watch me fade out. When the grip leaves my hand. I know you won't let me down."

"We all get lost sometimes trying to find what we're looking for."

"When the morning comes and takes me. I promise I have taught you everything that you need. In the night you'll dream of so many things. But find the ones that bring you life, and you'll find me."

Post by: IDontNotDoThings on April 24, 2020, 07:46:57 PM: I don't know if "a song in another language" is going to be an upcoming theme, but fuck it.

Invisible - Perdonado (Niño Condenado)

When translated from Spanish, the song's lyrics are really abstract, & I feel that they were written that way to let the listener draw their own conclusions, which I have. :biggrin:

Quote
Lyric [Translation]

Habla conmigo, viejo perro blanco [Talk to me, old white dog]
Habla conmigo, ladra tu quebranto [Talk to me, bark your brokenness]
Cuando quieras olvidarlo [When you want to forget it]
Tu quebranto [Your brokenness]
Habla conmigo, perro de la lluvia [Talk to me, dog of the rain]
Habla conmigo, solo tú conoces [Talk to me, only you know]
La vendimia de la calle [The vintage of the street]

¡La delicia! [Delight!] (x2)

Habla conmigo, viejo perro blanco [Talk to me, old white dog]
Busca descanso con tu molinete [Seek rest with your pinwheel]
Que los amos no descansan [That the masters do not rest]
Ya no existen [They don't exist]
Habla conmigo, perro de la lluvia [Talk to me, dog of the rain]
Habla conmigo, niño condenado [Talk to me, condemned child]
Por el diablo de febrero [For the devil of February]

¡Perdonado! [Forgiven!] (x8)

To me, I think the song is an allegory for abuse, the relationship between a pet & a master being a metaphor for the power that (for example) a parent has over a child. The imagery makes me think of a dog being abandoned & left out on a street to fend for itself. It then learns how to survive on the streets ("only you know the vintage of the street"), which is like a part of their abandonment that stays with them forever ("the masters do not rest") despite them not physically being there ("they don't exist"). While the dog is tough on the outside, it's still broken on the inside ("bark your brokenness when you want to forget it"), & wishes that that toughness could instead have developed their traits through a childlike innocence ("seek rest with your pinwheel"). However when it is faced with the heat of February (summer in Argentina, where the band is from), the abuse it suffered hasn't prepared them for it, so the abuse it suffered no longer becomes a part of them, so it's "forgiven" from the abuse despite suffering from the heat.

Alternatively, the song could be strictly about animal abuse. Maybe I'm off the mark completely & it could be about the experience gained from aging & the desire to go back to more innocent times. Maybe it's not about abandonment per se, but about the feeling of emptiness when a child's parents pass away. It's a simple song lyrically, but I think its ambiguity makes its despair even more prevalent.

There's also the possibility that Google Translate is completely wrong, & that I don't even have the right lyrics. :lol

Anyway, I'm getting carried away. I just really love this song both musically & lyrically. That's all. :|

Just lately, this one for NY :heart

New York Morning - Elbow

The first to put a simple truth in words
Binds the world in a feeling all familiar
'Cause everybody owns the great ideas
And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

Antenna up and out into New York
Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers
And oh, my giddy aunt, New York can talk
It's the modern Rome where folk are nice to Yoko

Every bone of rivet steel, each corner stone and angle
Jenga jut and rusty water tower, pillar, post and sign
Every painted line and battered ladder building in this town
Sings a life of proud endeavor and the best that man can be

Me, I see a city and I hear a million voices
Planning, drilling, welding, carrying their fingers to the nub
Reaching down into the ground, stretching up into the sky
Why? Because they can, they did and do so you and I could live together

Oh my God, New York can talk
Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers
Everybody owns the great ideas
And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

The desire to part sure symphony
The desire like a distant storm
For love, be good for me
And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

Oh my God, New York, you talk
Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers
Everybody owns the greats ideas
And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

The way the day begins
Decides the shade of everything
But the way it ends depends on if you're home
For every soul, a pillow at a window, please
In a modern Rome where folk are nice to Yoko

Post by: New World Rushman on April 27, 2020, 07:19:39 AM: Been away for a few days; catching up.

Year born: 1963 was a weird year in rock, most of the hits were leftover acts from the 50’s (Elvis, oldies, etc.) and up and coming all-girl pop/ R&B acts. The Beach Boys were starting to get noticed, and The Beatles (started hitting in the UK but not yet in the U.S), The Stones, The Kinks, and The Who were still a year or two away.
I’m going with The Surfaris - “Wipeout”

A song that makes you think about life: DT – “A Change of Seasons”

It's Michael Kiske, who in the late 80's/early 90's was the singer of Helloween.

This song is from his first solo album, Instant Clarity, in 1996. The guy is amazing and still gives me chills.
Literally the best singer these ears have ever heard. Opinion, of course.

This is the first song I heard from Tedeschi Trucks Band when I went to a local cinema to see Eric Clapton's Crossroad. It completely floored me. I went out and bought their album and several of Derek Trucks Band's back catalog.

Great song, and great choice.

Some of my favorite guitar playing and drumming in this song. It's mostly instrumental, with a few lines of vocals a couple minutes in, the singer has a gravelly voice and the lyrics are just odd, but this song rocks.

Day 24 - A song by a band you wish were still together

This is an interesting topic because almost every band I've ever listened to still exists in some form or another (even if it's a single member from the "classic lineup" plus a bunch of randos).

The two bands that come to mind as for sure being no longer together are Rush (already mentioned) and the Beatles, so I'll go with The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill.

Not to poop on this wonderful thread. I am having a hard time thinking of a band I wish was still together. Hopefully in the spirit of the thread, I'll go: Duran Duran: New Moon on Monday.

If we can throw out a band with a deceased member, then virtually any Rush song and lots of Queen songs would suffice (or maybe "(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth" by Cliff Burton/Metallica). On the other hand, if we're talking about solo artists (or bands where everyone's dead), then it becomes much harder.

George Harrison - Give Me Love

If we can throw out a band with a deceased member, then virtually any Rush song and lots of Queen songs would suffice (or maybe "(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth" by Cliff Burton/Metallica). On the other hand, if we're talking about solo artists (or bands where everyone's dead), then it becomes much harder.

It's open to interpretation. I was thinking "by" meant written by. But it could also be performed by. Do whatever you'd like. If you feel up to the challenge of finding something where everyone is dead, I'd be interested for sure! LoL

That's a good one. The Undertaker in me will go with his cover of Ain't No Grave. That entrance in WM27 is probably my all-time favorite. Unfortunately it is overdubbed on the Network/any WWE release to Taker's normal entrance music. So to see it you need to check out videos from attendees on YT.

I've heard of Little Wing, but if I've heard the song, I don't know. Don't like Hendrix at all. Motorhead's probably the best example. I wouldn't call myself a fan, but I like a handful of songs (including the one mentioned). I had forgotten about EL&Powell. I vaguely recall dubbing someone else's copy of that album onto a cassette and listening to it a bunch in 86-87ish. I listened to Touch and Go not all that long ago (for probably the first time in 25-30 years) and not thinking much of it. Their performance of Mars, the Bringer of War, on the other hand, was quite good.

Little Wing is a fantastic song that has been covered by dozens of artists over the years - Eric Clapton with Derek and the Dominos, Jeff Beck, Sting, SRV, Chieftains, etc. I like Hendrix to a degree, but his version is not my preferred version by a long shot. So you might like some of the other versions.

I've heard of Little Wing, but if I've heard the song, I don't know. Don't like Hendrix at all.

If you've got 15 minutes - COVID, don't give me any lip! - humor me:

Little Wing - Stevie Ray Vaughan (from "The Sky Is Crying") - 7:00-ish
Little Wing - Sting (from "...Nothing Like The Sun") - 5:00-ish
Little Wing - Concrete Blonde (a b-side, but from the "Still In Hollywood" compilation) - 4:00-ish

They're all very different versions, and none really sound like what you'd call "quintessential" Hendrix (well, maybe the SRV version; there's actually two, one on TSIC, which is just "Little Wing", and a version on the "Soul To Soul" reissue, which is twice as long and has segments of "Third Stone From The Sun" by Hendrix. It's AMAZING, but the point is this one song, not SRV.)

Really don't like SRV, and Sting's solo stuff always seemed pretty lame to me. In the early days of our relationship, my wife bought me a Concrete Blonde CD. All I remember is a song called Joey and another one with something about vampires. I pretended to like it for a while, but I don't recall liking the singer's voice too much.

Nonetheless, I'll give these versions (along with the Hendrix version, which I'm 45 seconds into and already don't like) a quick listen.

EDIT: I got bored with the Hendrix version after 3 minutes. I switched to SRV and it sounded no different, so I quit after about 90 seconds. I didn't find a studio version by Beck. The version I listed to seemed about the same as the others, except that his guitar had more distortion. I tried Concrete Blond. It was better because it was about 20+ BPM faster, but then the singer started singing. I hadn't even gotten to vocals on the Hendrix or SRV versions! Of course, Hendrix's vocals make anything worse, and I don't like SRV's singing either, so it's not like vocals would have improved anything.

Sorry, guys. Extremely bluesy stuff is never going to be to my taste. Also, this confirmed that I don't think I've ever heard the song before.

Hey, if you don't like it you don't like it. I appreciate you taking the effort. I like the Sting and CB versions (they're not that far off) because of the dreamy quality of arrangements. The SRV version doesn't have vocals, it's all instrumental, but it's also, as you noted, bluesier, so that's apparently a trade off.

Thanks, though, sincerely.

Seeing SRV from the 10th row was mindblowing. Also my ears paid for it. He plays so loud.

I saw him play at Uconn's Memorial Stadium on the back of a flatbed truck, to about 200 people.

Oh, and let's not overstate what "Memorial Stadium" was; this was back before Geno, before Jim Calhoun; it was an open field, with a set of metal bleachers on one side, and a set of concrete bleachers (really, just big steps) on the other. SRV was newly sober around that time (it was after Live Alive) and if those were the gigs he was playing, it must've been a struggle.

To this day - and I've seen a lot of big name guitar players, Blackmore, Page, Clapton, Howe, Petrucci, Lifeson, Iommi - I don't think I've ever gotten the sense of "control" over the instrument from the artist as I did in that show. It was like the guitar was attached to his arm. Only Blackmore and Morse have come close to that. Hard to describe.

Day 27 - A song that breaks your heart

The original version of 'Ohio' when Crosby's voice cracks at the end "How many more?" - gets me every time

Sting's 'Fragile' - which many assume was written for 911. It wasn't. The true reason behind that song is heart breaking for sure

Bruce Cockburn's - 'If I Had a Rocket Launcher' - which is heartbreaking in it's anger and pure rage

FWIW, my reference to HWC was tongue in cheek. I'm only familiar with the one album of hers that was successful. I went to see her live (at a House of Blues), and it was one of the most boring shows I've ever attended. There was some guy (or maybe it was a girl) who DESPERATELY wanted her to play Divorce Song and let her know it during pretty much every break between songs.

And I hate to sound like the old fuddy-duddies in the comment section, but it was refreshing to watch a lady just sing a song with no background dancers, no pyro or crazy lighting effects, no Steve Harris rapid fire edits, no skimpy outfit, no twerting.

Too funny. That's my signature karaoke song. And...true story...I got to sing it with Bobby McFerrin once. I was at a Bobby McFerrin concert, and there was a portion where he picked volunteers who wanted to sing something with him, and I got picked. He mostly did the background beat while I sung lead. But then he did a gunshot sound when I sang "...and he drew first and shot." Still one of my favorite memories.

For a song from my childhood, I probably have to go with the classical piece Rustle of Spring. I'm not even sure of the origins of the song, but we had a record of it when I was very little and I started making up my own words and singing along. I think my mom still has a cassette of me singing along to it when I was only 4 or 5 years old.

I don't have a large arsenal here.

Not a song per se (and it isn't really divisible into songs), but I'll go with Peter and the Wolf by Prokofiev. We had an album with narration by Peter Ustinov ( https://www.amazon.com/Prokofievs-PETER-narrated-Peter-Ustinov/dp/B00LS5OL0Q ), and I can recall playing it a lot as a kid.

The Beatles - Ticket To Ride

True story... one day in the spring of 1987, this was the CHUM-FM song of the Day. I was indeed the 10th caller, and won one of them new-fangled portable phone thingies that came with 30 minutes of airtime/month for one year. Retail value was $2,500! :omg: It wasn't even the famous 'brick' cell phone, it was one that needed a base that needed a power source (ie, cigarette lighter). I ended up selling it to an insurance broker for $1,200, and bought a kick-ass stereo system - all-in-one tuner, amplifier and dual cassette deck; turntable; 300w speakers that were about the size of a small bar-fridge; and one of them new-fangled CD player thingies. That thing lasted me 20-ish years - though I did upgrade the speakers to something a little more toaster-sized in the early 2000s.

Anyhow, back on topic ... Can't limit it to just one:

Alphaville / Forever Young (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1TcDHrkQYg)
Dream Academy / Life in a Northern Town (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UXnulANF8g)
Bonnie Tyler / Total Eclipse of the Heart (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcOxhH8N3Bo)

I could go on and on, but I'll stop there.

The Royal Guardsmen - Snoopy vs. the Red Baron

Stadler and me copying each other on crying (Black) and childhood (Snoopy).

Day 30 - A song that reminds you of yourself

All I Really Want - Alanis Morissette

Do I stress you out?
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say, how appropriate
I don't like to dissect everything today
I don't mean to pick you apart you see
But I can't help it

And there I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already
If only I could hunt the hunter

And all I really want is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance, ah

Do I wear you out?
You must wonder why I'm relentless and all strung out
I'm consumed by the chill of solitary
I'm like Estella
I like to reel it in and then spit it out
I'm frustrated by your apathy

And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the maker
And I am fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature, yeah

And what I wouldn't give to find a soul mate?
Someone else to catch this drift
And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred? Ah

Enough about me, let's talk about you for a minute
Enough about you, let's talk about life for a while
The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses is falling
All around, all around

Why are you so petrified of silence?
Here can you handle this? <10 count of silence>
Did you think about your bills, you ex, your deadlines
Or when you think you're going to die?
Or did you long for the next distraction?

And all I need now is intellectual intercourse
A soul to dig the hole much deeper
And I have no concept of time other than it is flying
If only I could kill the killer

And all I really want is some peace man
A place to find a common ground
And all I really want is a wavelength, ah
And all I really want is some comfort
A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want is some justice, ah

It's all I really want, some patience
A way to calm me down
And all I really want is deliverance
A place to find a common ground
