Cranberries - Zombie

Dude!  I can't believe you're playing this.  I thought I'd finnally reach a point in my life where I'd never have to hear this horrible song again.  What the heck.  I never heard of anyone who actually liked this song.

It's A Beautiful Day - White Bird

One of the albums I totallly wore out then I was a kid.  Had a million skips and I still kept playing it.

Neil Young - Like A Hurricane
(Jan 31, 2013 - 11:29)
Likewise.  That's always been Neil's trademark.

Elvis Presley - A Fool Such As I
(Nov 30, 2012 - 11:57)

Didn't used to be able to stand Elvis.  I think it was growing up with those terrible movies on TV all the time.  But I find I like him more and more as time goes on.  I appreciate his music much more without all the junk that used to go along with him in the old days.



Dire Straits - Where Do You Think You're Going

Haven't heard this in ages.  Thanks for bringing it back to me.  {#Clap}

The Smashing Pumpkins - Eye

Rotten Apple is an appropriate title for this.  Yikes!  How did this make it on?

Kate Bush - Cloudbusting
(Nov 28, 2012 - 11:47)
Beethoven just rolled over in his grave.  I'm pretty sure hearing this song come after him would make him come after Bill with a machine gun if he were alive.

Cult with No Name - You Know Me Better Than I Know Myself

Has to be a 10 for me!

The Tragically Hip - Fiddlers Green

Love the song.  Love the lyrics.  Love the Hip.

Dave Matthews Band - Broken Things
(Oct 17, 2012 - 11:19)
I've always found Dave Mathews to be way over rated and couldn't understand why he receives the attention he does.  By the ratings here, I can see that I'm not the only one.

Neil Young - The Needle and the Damage Done
(Oct 12, 2012 - 10:09)
Often the most powerfull songs are the simplist.  No one seems to understand this better than Neil.

Morphine - The Night
(Oct 11, 2012 - 11:15)
A dark room, fireplace, pipe, glass of port, and a comfy leather chair would suit this song perfectly.  Too bad I'm at work.

I like her music but it all sounds the same.  It gets boring fast.

David Gilmour - Fat Old Sun

Where's the 11 or 12 Bill?  10 is not enough for David Gilmour.

Talk Talk - The Rainbow

Hard to believe this is the same band I used to hear on the radio in the 80's.  I hated the crap that I heard back then.  I had no idea they wrote stuff like this.{#Eyes}

Norah Jones - I Don't Wanna Hear Another Sound
(Sep 08, 2012 - 11:01)
Far from my favorite Norah Jones songs but she deserves lots of credit for doing thing differently all the time.  Nothing worse in my opinion than an artist that just keep rehashing the same kind of song over and over.  Plus she's a cutie.

Peter Gabriel - Secret World
(Sep 06, 2012 - 11:56)
My favorite Peter Gabriel song.  Would rather hear the live version though.{#Bananapiano}

Was way overplayed on the radio back then.  That kinda wrecked it for me.  It is pretty good.  I hate when the radio station wreck a song by over playing it like that.

LAME SONG BY LAME ARTIST.  Some decent guitar work, otherwise BLAH!  Never understood why David Bowie is considered so good by so many people.  I've tried to listen to him with an open mind but it just don't get it.  {#Headache}

Great poet.  Crappy performer and singer.  I'm sorry I know there's a lot of fans out there, I love his lyrics, but I just can't stand it when he "sings" them.{#Drunk}

John Hiatt - Walk On (live)

I'm usually a big John Hiatt fan, but this particular song and performance doesn't do much for me.

Hans Zimmer - You're So Cool

This was in the movie Finding Forrester I believe when Sean Connery is riding the old bicycle.  Can't help but think of that scene, when listening to this.

Neil Young - Natural Beauty
(Aug 25, 2012 - 08:47)
A not so great voice.  Mediocre guitar skills.  Yet Neil has an amazing way of writing and delivering music that is so awsome.  Great music creates a doorway to another place and it's the artists job to draw the listener in through that door and no one does that better than Neil.

Lizz Wright - Hit The Ground
(Aug 25, 2012 - 07:48)
Sweet and beautiful!  {#Clap}

Blackstratblues - Newness

I'm hearing a lot of David Gilmour.  With the black stratocaster in the band name I guess that isn't surprising.



k.d. lang - Coming Home

Not a big KD Lang fan.  But I have to say I rather like this song.

David Bowie - Waterloo Sunset

I know I'm in the minority, but honestly:

I
THINK
DAVID
BOWIE

There I said.  I feel better now.  Sorry but I've never understood the pedistal that so many put David Bowie on.  He seems so highly overrated to me.

Anna Ternheim - What Have I Done
(Aug 18, 2012 - 10:21)
This song has been played too often for too long.  Time for it to go away.

Keren Ann - My Name Is Trouble
(Aug 18, 2012 - 09:04)
Its growing on me like a cyst.  The more it goes on the more I can't stand it.{#Frustrated}

Cowboy Junkies - Floorboard Blues
(Aug 17, 2012 - 12:49)
Her voice is soooo Hot! {#Hearteyes}

Forest For The Trees - Dream
(Aug 17, 2012 - 10:23)
Guess it is possible to be too eclectic.  It's like they're trying too hard to include every type of music they could.  It's a fun song, but maybe a little too hodge podge.{#Ask}

George Winston - Tamarack Pines
(Aug 11, 2012 - 16:43)
Started off OK.  Then became hugely disappointing.  You can go ahead and axe this one Bill. {#No}

Afro Celt Sound System - Life Begin Again (w/ Robert Plant)

Nice combination.  They compliment each other well.{#Clap}

Leahy - B Minor

If you want a good party, go visit Halifax.  My wife lived in Halifax before she moved out west to be with me.  Lots of great pubs, lots of great music.  I loved going out east to visit her.  Too bad the weather sucks.



Pink Floyd - On The Turning Away
(Mar 20, 2012 - 12:02)
This gets a 10.  Live version gets a 12.

Pink Floyd - Us And Them -> Eclipse (live)
(Mar 14, 2012 - 14:21)
There are a select few songs out there that require the option of a rating higher than 10.

This would be one of them.

David Gilmour - Fat Old Sun
(Mar 07, 2012 - 16:50)
I Like the "Remember that Night" live version better than this one.  Not that it's bad, but the "Remember that Night" version has gotta be my favorite guitar solo of all time.  I must go listen to that version now.

Feist - Caught A Long Wind
(Feb 23, 2012 - 08:39)
Please. Please. Please.  No more Feist.  Her music was somewhat tolerable when she first came out, but now I find her voice to be extremely annoying and I'm sick of hearing her stuff being overplayed on commercial stations.  It's bad enough, I have to stop the music and wait till she's done.{#Puke}

William Shatner - Common People
(Feb 23, 2012 - 08:32)
That's funny.  During the song before this, I started thinking about this exact song and that I haven't heard it in a long time.  Damn Bill, you're good!

Bye the way.  I love this song.  And I'm not even a big William Shatner fan.{#Dancingbanana}

Janis Joplin - Summertime

Yikes!{#Frustrated}

That's all I have to say about that.

Neil Young - Round & Round (It Won't Be Long)
(Feb 09, 2012 - 09:42)
This would be perfect if I was lying in bed relaxing at the end of the day.  Unfortunatly is mid morning and I'm trying to work and now I want a nap.

Morphine - Top Floor, Bottom Buzzer
(Feb 09, 2012 - 09:10)

I really like Morphine.  I couldn't listen them all day because their songs are all very simular, but then again I could say that about every band (Except for Pink Floyd of course).



The Decemberists - Rise To Me
(Feb 09, 2012 - 08:56)
What do ya know, Country Music that doesn't suck.  I'm not a big country music fan, but this is pretty good.

God is an Astronaut - Remaining Light

Don't think my boss appreciated the nap I just took.


Pink Floyd - Coming Back To Life
(Feb 08, 2012 - 12:14)

Hey Bill,  if you're reading this, I'd love to hear something from David Gilmours semi-acoustic Meltdown concert he did in 2001.  It offered some of the best versions of Pink Floyd and David Gilmour songs I've ever heard.



David Gilmour - Fat Old Sun
(Dec 03, 2011 - 11:10)

Always loved this song.  I consider David Gilmour to be one of the best musicians of our time.  The "Rember that Night" concert version is even better in my opinion.



Pink Floyd - Speak To Me -> ...In The Sky (live)
