  • "Uprising" kicks ass! Great pick.
    "I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."

      Richrath rips it up in that song. He was too underrated as a guitarist.
      Agreed, fantastic song. I thought I might get it later today.

        I assumed it was taken. Recall debating picking it a long time ago. Nice grab ...

          • Was wondering if today would be the day I'd miss out on "My Sharona".
            If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

              I know what you mean ... there's waaaaaaaay too many songs to pick.

              • I was not familiar with DMT's pick #363-Muse-Uprising. Bonus for me!

                A lot to take in. I like it now- I would have loved it in college.

                • "Don't Bring Me Down" was on my list of songs to consider taking today.

                    If you like classic rock, you will like Muse ... they are like the reincarnation of Queen filtered through 80's and 90's rock and punk.

                    Origin of Symmetry (2001), Absolution (2003) & Black Holes and Revelations (2006) are 3 of the best records of the 2000's.

                    • Haven't picked a Neil Young song yet, but "Down By The River" was near the top of that list.

                        It was at the top of my NY list, after Powderfinger.

                          I do. And I will check these out. Thanks!

                          But since I was not aware of them I will not include any of them for my picks.

                              I thought this was picked already, so I didnt take it. My mistake.

                              Great great song.
