I don't either, but I think a lot of people kind of turned on him because of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfife Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 hornsby is awesome! Both of those songs mentioned are great. He was a member of the dead for a while too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Anyone ever been to El Club in Detroit before? How's the parking situation there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motor City Sonics Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 (edited) A quick Top 10, but tomorrow my list would be different. In No Particular Order (I guess it's 11..........see, it already changed and I am leaving out Carmen by Bizet because I love the whole thing). Grounds For Divorce by Elbow (known for their ballads more, but darkly funny) How Soon Is Now by The Smiths (nothing sounds like it) The Barber of Seville Overture - Rossini (reminds me of Breaking Away) Astronauts by One Eskimo (beautiful song from a short lived group) Take Five by Dave Brubeck (probably piggyback that with Strange Meadow Lark from the same album) Starry Eyes by The Records (can't be in a bad mood when this is on) Mercy Mercy Me by Marvin Gaye (reminds me of summer as a kid) The Girl From Ipanema by Getz/Gilberto (too bad they didn't do more - stan and astrud got close, I hear, very close, so I get why they never worked together again) On A Clear Day You Can See Forever by The Peddlers (thank you Breaking Bad for introducing me to this) Cuyahoga - R.E.M. (favorite R.E.M. song by far) Prisoners by Doves (don't know why, just love this song) Edited May 6, 2022 by Motor City Sonics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordstanley Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 My daughter's all-girls high school had their annual choir concert last night at a concert hall. This was one of the songs they did. 40 voices doing this one sounded great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordstanley Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 I gave myself one minute to have 10 songs I like pop into my head. If I had more time, I'm sure my top 10 would be different but I've listened to all of these a lot over the years: Thunder Road - Springsteen Main Street - Seger Baba O'Reilly - The Who Different Drum - Stone Poneys Crimson & Clover - Tommy James and the Shondells Sunday Girl - Blondie Sheena Is A Punk Rocker -Ramones Funeral - Band of Horses Ball & Biscuit - White Stripes Rebellion - Arcade Fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Cat Gentleman Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 I just happened upon this while I was youtubing something else. pretty cool, it a bit goofy. cool visuals on the big screen, dunno if they're Rush's or if Primus had them made up.

(favorite R.E.M. song by far) Prisoners by Doves (don't know why, just love this song) I think I've probably listened to like, three songs on this entire list, Smiths, REM and Marvin. Marvin's Mercy Me (Ecology) is probably the only one I can sing the lyrics to. I've got some catching up as far as the MCS, radio DJ, music aficionado goes.
