Seinfeld song character matching game;
Thought I'd amuse myself and have given each song a Seinfeld character. This character is what came to mind while I was listening through. There may be various reasons for why I've selected who I have, but though it may be a laugh for those that know the show. These aren't necessarily a representation of impressions but there are some in there for reasons why I've linked these characters;
I fully expect no one to understand any of these at all except me so don't worry.
1. Bob and Ray - The fellas that stole Elaine's armor;
A bit flamboyant, trendy and modern. Take what they want and go.Impression: Not sure about this, it's a bit modern sounding for my tastes and not sold on the vocals. The solo is very good though and the length helps it out.2. Uncle Leo - Jerry's slightly crazy neurotic uncle -
Stadler
Vintage, heart of gold, should be annoying but surprisingly loveable.Impression: Once I got over the first few lines at the very start, this turned out really solid. Great guitar tone and an unexpected solo that was great. Surprised.3. Keith Hernandez - The old baseball player that became friends with Jerry;
Has a reputation, old school, good looking, takes what he wants, a bit brooding and you will help him move.Impression: I'm liking this more and more each listen. It's subtle, smooth, a little dark and groovy.4. Newman;
An evil, dark, brooding character with a few different sides to him. Happy with himself and not caring about others.Impression: Yeah, this is some quality black metal.5. Bob Cobb (Maestro) - A conductor who was once a boyfriend of Elaine's and had a house in Tuscany
Loves his classic sound with some symphonic elements, likes to be well presented, yet strong dependable character. Impression: Ahh....despite the *insert aspect I normally hate* this was okay. Might be able to look past it to enjoy it.6. Frank Costanza -
lonestar
Manic, a bit crazy, over the top and angry at times yet serenity now at some points.Impression: This is a bit more like it. Thrashy and pretty ripping. Vocals I'm not sold on, but solid.7. Jackie Chiles - Kramer's lawyer
Loves to look and smell good. Dresses modern, funky and slick with nothing out of place. Knows what he is and likeable. Impression: Not normally my style but this was pretty smooth and enjoyable.8. The Flying Sandos Brothers - Magic show that George and Jerry saw. -
Puppies
Quality show, strong presence and eastern vibe and flavour. Would see again but may have stolen my jacket.Impression: Not sure about this, not sure the flavour is for me yet.9. Soup Nazi
Unapologising, rude, brutal, strong character, doesn't give a fuck.Impression: Nice and brutal. Liked teh change and melodies half way through. Could be a tad long but I don't think that hurts it.10. George Steinbrenner - George's crazy boss at the Yankees
Good businessman, a bit crazy, lots of good stuff but rambles on too long when you're trying to leave.Impression: The aspects are there but why on earth is this so long?11. Mr. Kruger - George's boss at Kruger Industrial Smoothing
The boss, carefree, nothing bothers him, laid back, does what he wants, easy boss to like and get on with.Impression: That simple melody that rings through it is pretty catchy and haunting. Can't deny this artist even though I'm not a massive fan, smooth and class. Will it stick though?12. LT Bookman - The book detective accusing Jerry of never returning a book from years ago -
Litho
Hard ass, doesn't let up, strong character, takes his work seriously.Impression: Pretty good thrash with some melody. Gets the job done.13. Sue Ellen Mischke - The braless wonder -
TAC
Carefree, unapologising, dominating, strong business woman and sexy.Impression: Quite bold, fresh, strong and sexy. Quite unique too, ripping.14. Art Vandelay - George's made up professional character - ariich
Hard to get a read on, not sure too much about them or their demeaner. Could be nothing or could be epic as fuck.Impression: Still need to get my head around this whole thing. It's all solid but does it all work, I think it might, let me listen again.15. Kenny Bania - Fellow comedian and acquaintance of Jerry -
Jingle
Nice guy, very happy and confident, know what you're getting with him but the sound of his voice is hard to listen to though.Impression: The elements are there for a nice song. The production really hurts it though.16. Izzy Mandelbaum - Lives down with Jerry's parents wanting to outlift everyone;
Tough as nails, always ready to fight, dependable but not as strong as what he thinks.Impression: Pretty standard and a tad generic? Tough, metal gets things done, but not sure it's enough.17. David Puddy - Elaine's on and off again boyfriend
Big character and presence, a bit slow and laid back but strong at moments with a few zingers...yeah that's right.Impression: Really enjoy the atmosphere, moody and brooding, thick sounding with a nice change of pace in the middle.18. Rabbi Glickman - Rabbi that lives in Elaine's building
Gentle kind character, good intentions, nice guy but somewhat pretentious and stale.
Impression: Hard to find a lot to like here unfortunately. It's nice but, dunno....
