NEW LIST YOU COCKS

Hendrix - Little Wing
Bowie - Starman, Space Oddity, Rock n Roll Suicide
Sex Bomb by Flipper
Crippled Black Phoenix - Burnt Reynolds

Veto. I feel like there must be some Bowie I'll like somewhere in his catalogue but none of those are working for me, and Flipper get a veto for being far more boring than they should be.

Aqualung. Anyone who doesn't like that man's flute talent can get a fist in the nose

Veto because my dad played that record over and over and that is about the same as getting a fist in the nose

I was going to make a comment to that effect but realised that I was probably more guilty of it than anyone else.

Seriously considering re-nominating Sam Cooke because I feel that strongly about it.

Shouldn't have vetoed Lord Invader then should you, cockmunch?

That said I really didn't find anything in that song to latch on to.

They already vetoed Locomotive Breath. Aqualung (the song, anyways) doesn't even have flute.

It's funny to watch the trend emerge that as a community of young white people, we are most apprehensive about vetoing old school classics made by black artists.

Nobody's been apprehensive about vetoing at all and for terrible reasons, which is why this thread is both an excellent social experiment and a great resource for my Chump Rolodex.

I was going to veto all the Bowie, but A Pack of Wolves took care of it for me, so I'll just go ahead and veto Girl Talk, because fuck Girl Talk.

also, I absolutely love Son House, so thanks for posting that.

I think we should stop posting songs for awhile so we can narrow down the list we have.

also, fuck that Shivaree shit

We are for now. I doubt anyone's suggesting that no more songs can be suggested at some point in the future, just that we give it a rest while we cull some of the current herd.

Joseph · « **Reply #267 on:** 11 Dec 2009, 14:18 »

Nobody ever vetoed 'Bonnie and Clyde' and yet it is not on that list and that is a silly thing to have happen.

Actually I think a bunch of people are just nerfing songs because those songs aren't their favourites, not because they don't like them in some way, which is Hells Of Chumpy.

KharBevNor · « **Reply #269 on:** 11 Dec 2009, 15:18 »

It's not about whether you dislike something, it's about whether you do like it. Subtle but important distinction. I've only vetoed stuff I do not like.

i don't at this minute have time to trawl through all the pages of this thread, but in the event that they haven't already been suggested, how about these:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsmQB0pAC3c - because everyone likes partying.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABV8oIDecyo - because surely nobody can truly hate the drifters (although i may be biased as i heard it ALL the time in the car as a child and grew to love all their stuff).

Der Golem · « **Reply #279 on:** 12 Dec 2009, 07:54 »

Andrew WK and CCR? Least offensive?

I'm going to nominate Electric Worry by Clutch. Not really a personal favorate, but it is pretty far from offensive. It sort of bridges a generation gap too, I can imagine a lot of peoples' dads rocking out to this, but it does not sound old or dated at all.

I wasn't actually vetoing the song. I find it perfectly tolerable, even quite good in parts.
