I want to mention REM, but I don't know which song to pick.

Christophe, I was really expecting Chuggo from you.

Ehh, it was expected which was exactly I went for the Attack! first.

I'm sure Lakeshore Boulevard's Most Wanted will make its way to the thread somehow.

Not their best work ever but if the combination of the song and seeing J Mascis ride a skateboard doesn't make you happy there's just no helping you.

Has anyone actually vetoed 'Helter Skelter' though?

pilsner · « **Reply #55 on:** 10 Dec 2009, 17:16 »

KvP said he didn't think The Beatles were that great but didn't comment specifically on the song so I'm not sure. Also, Search & Destroy has had nothing bad said of it, which makes sense to me.

Can anyone not like this song?

As for Opeth and Vampire Weekend - come on, guys. Let's at least try not to make this into a thread where we wave our music taste like flags/penises. It's really really obvious that someone is gonna veto both those suggestions, isn't it?

Vampire Weekend isn't a personal taste of mine, they're just a really inoffensive band! They're poppy and safe. Which brings me to my next point:

Quote from: Ptommydski on 10 Dec 2009, 16:45

As long as their singer still draws breath, I will not even acknowledge his bandmates as human beings, let alone as musicians.

Jeez dude, that's fucking harsh. I can understand a dislike of them but what about their music is so awful that you would go to such lengths to insult them?

Billie Holiday is gonna get vetoed on account of not everyone likes blues and jazz. Though personally I find her wonderful.

Do the members of Dinosaur Jr. actually have mad skateboarding/BMX skills or are those well-placed stunt doubles?

You have to try to appeal to the pop music fans, the indie rock types and the metalheads.

I DID take those into consideration. I just failed at it, apparently!

That's in the info on the side.

Thank you. I generally make a point of checking YouTube info before asking things but this time it slipped my mind.

That's a little disappointing.

New Suggestion.

We could spend hours arguing over which song is better but I feel like the general direction makes sense? I'm surprised no one has tried this yet.

I hate to complain, but guys, do you mind noting what video you are linking? I can't watch several of these videos because I live in a dumb country (copyright restrictions), but chances are fairly high I have heard the song already anyway.

You have pretty much got to be asexual not to like Bonnie and Clyde. Helter Skelter and Lust for Life are also hard to argue with.

Aww man. I guess "Mind Your Own Business" lasted longer than I expected. Also, has anyone technically vetoed "Fight the Power"? I know Khar sort of blanket vetoed but for Public Enemy I insist he confirm else it don't count.

edit: I'm not gonna lie, the_pied_piper, but kneejerk reaction to your veto of "Lust for Life" was something to the effect of

FUCK YOU

But you should know it's not personal. It actually kind of surprised me how much fury was in that second it took me to read it before my brain kicked in.
