This is kinda funky, my only complaint really is that it's not different enough from the Beatles - I tend to prefer covers that reinvent the song in the style of the band covering it (unless this band usually sounds almost exactly like the Beatles anyway in which case, fair enough). It's funky, upbeat, and happy, but I'm not a huge Beatles fan and it doesn't seem to do anything new. Still, I'd listen to it again. 7/10 or something :)

Anathema - A Fine Day To Exit
-Very weak music. I forgot it was playing.
-Not really my genre.
-The voice-like thing is pretty annoying.
-Very repetative.
-Singing is not great.
-Some cool effects.
-Picks up slowly a little before 3:00, then drops it about a minute later.
-The part where it picks up doesn't really pick up much.
-Near the end is strong, then drops out.
This seems like easy listening to me. Not really my style. 193/530 (around 3.641509/10).
Choose one (Artist - Song):
System of a Down - Vicinity of Obscenity (very odd but awesome)
Hammerfall - Blood Bound (like a 1000x better Iron Maiden)
My Chemical Romance - You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison (energetic, yet whiny...cool combination somehow)
Yeah, System of a Down and My Chemical Romance are pretty well-known, but I really like them. I don't know how well-known Hammerfall is. I just found it like yesterday.

My Chemical Romance - You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison
Quick review: This is My Chemical Romance
More in-depth review: It starts with some bad guitar wankery and the singer telling you to "get down get down " in a whiny voice. Then there is a kind of barroom shuffle music part about a gun fight or some shit. Music throughout this part remains standard emo fare, guitars go a-chuggachugga with some random random wankery. The singer gets more desperate and tries to scream, highlight comes at 2:28 when he attempts to roar about it " going to go down on your PERMANENT RRRREAWWWCORD" which makes him sound like an emo Tony the Tiger.and it ends with him screaming like he just saw a really big spider. Overall, a compelling argument for eugenics.
1/10 The 1 comes from the previously mentioned "roar", which at least made me laugh.
I'll post mine in a second, just waiting for Yousendit to finish.
Here it is
Echo and the Bunnymen - The Back of Love

Yeah, I would, but I figured I gave enough options that at least one person would have one of them/be able to find at least one of them easily enough. Also, when a post starts getting left behind, yousendit is not going to work by then. I can use it if it's really necessary, but I figured it was justified enough to not have one in that case. Also, I think you could use some sleep or something...
Echo & The Bunnymen - The Back of Love
------------------------------------------------
Heh, to me this is much whinier than the My Chemical Romance song. But that aside, this song is hilariously messed up. The voice is very whiney, the tune is very odd and slightly disturbing. The weird background noise that occurs at around 2:45 is very amusing. Excellent. The actual vocal tune sounds like a 5-year-old screaming. Awesome.
Very cool song, but it is mildly annoying (actually, just about everything in it is annoying), and it seems like they tried a bit too hard. I really can't decide if this is a good song or not, but it gave me a headache... go with one point under average, for the headache. 4/10.
Next person has a choice of:
System of a Down - Vicinity of Obscenity (very odd but awesome)
Hammerfall - Blood Bound (like a 1000x better version of Iron Maiden)
