  • I'd like to cast a vote in favor of Sonic Youth. Not my favorite band, but any means, but I like them well enough.
    Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?

    • They're not good at songs. I like songs.

        Nah, seriously though, I get you. The thing that gets me about Sonic Youth (but honestly I could say it about a lot of music from that genre) is that it just drones on and on. I'm sure that's how my music sounds to others, though.
        You know what doesn't drone on and on? Amy Grant.

                • Mith broke the draft thread...fucker.

                  I posted who is skipped, up, and on deck. I think Revo could pick anytime, considering Lucky's fun.

                    • Hey the Stones made it, lol. 'Tattoo You' was clearly the choice. I might go solo Beatles just to throw them a bone.

                      We're out of gas and rolling across the finish line, plus I've been concentrating on my 2013 Best Of. I still have about 20 albums on my draft list, but it's time. I'm itching to discuss why certain things weren't picked.

                      • Tattoo You was on my list, but more for "it deserves to be picked" than "I want to pick it."

                          It was such the "frat boy" music in college - when 867-5309 wasnt playing or loverboy or REO Speedwagon or Michael Stanley Band (Griz would get the reference) or Bruuuuuuuuce or Billy Joel etc

                              I like most of the songs that don't have Rob Thomas singing.

                                Tattoo You was my "Waaaaaaah, my first girlfriend broke up with me" album. Lotta teen angst tied up in that one.

                                It would have made the jump from "good album" to "great album" if they could have come up with two better songs than Black Limousine and Neighbors. Or just left them off the record.

                                Slave would have been better as an instrumental.

                                I really like Side 2; Worried About You is my favorite song:

                                "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
                                "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
                                "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."
