critique the song above

8.5/10
I've always liked this little tune.
A lot of people don't know that David Gilmour of Pink Floyd produced this track. You can definitely hear his influence as it sounds a lot like Momentary Lapse of Reason-era Floyd with its reverby drums and chorused-out guitars.
The nostalgic lyrics romanticize a bygone era of simpler times. A world that really doesn't exist anymore. Because of this, the song has always makes me a little melancholy.

Life in a Northern Town is one of my most favorite songs ever. You summed up my feelings for it perfectly.
ooops....carry on....

Decent jam in the old school style.
Rakim's verse - Awesome
Nas - OK
Kanye's verse - meh
KRS's - very good.

Just Jack - Snowflakes

7/10
Nice one. I like the way his lyrics flowed over that lovely riff. I may be biased of course as I just adore the original by the Cure.

3/10 pretty boring stuff. There is hardly any progression in the music and its just kind of lame.

Kero One- In All The Wrong Places
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcoFh9cUDWI

 

[His Name Is Frank]

2/10 Like listening to Jurassic 5 performing, if four them left and the remaining guy found Jesus and xanax.

dEus - Include Me Out

 

[Beenhead]

^ 5/10. I like the song, its very slow and minimal. I like that in a song. Though it is just a tad plain. I would like the dude to spice it up, yet keep it minimal!

Captain Beyon: Sufficiently Breathless

It kept rebuffering for me, so I am sorry if it does!

make sure to listen past the intro the song doesn't really start till 1:21

 

[maloxx]

sonic youth has always been strangely bland to me, considering how musically genius they are supposed to be

guess what was cutting edge back then...

speaking of which...

Steve Miller Band in general has always been one of my favorites, but The Joker is probably my favorite song by them, up there with Space Cowboy (lol).

Ugly Casanova - Cat Faces

 

[Thanatos]

3/10 I have never been a fan of Isaac Brock. I have never been able to get into modest mouse or ugly casanova

Natiruts- Una Vez Mas

pretty good but really not my style

Gloria -Patti Smith

 

[Beenhead]

6/10--- its not a bad rendition, especially if she plays the guitar herself! But does she have one original song, or just covers?


Nektar - Remember the Future, Part One

 

[ninjadanslarbretabar]

But does she have one original song, or just covers

her album horses is worth checking

Punk rock's poet laureate, Patti Smith ranks among the most influential female rock & rollers of all time. Ambitious, unconventional, and challenging, Smith's music was hailed as the most exciting fusion of rock and poetry since Bob Dylan's heyday.

Patti Smith has been a great source of inspiration for Michael Stipe of R.E.M. Listening to her album Horses when he was 15 made a huge impact on him. He said later: "I decided then that I was going to start a band.''

Nektar - Remember the Future, Part One

10/10 cus I finally found the band that inspired Les Claypool's Electric Apricot movie (spoof documentary about jam bands, funny as crap)!

Speaking of Les Claypool, how's about a little PRIMUS?

Jerry was a Racecar Driver - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUxAol0wbak
with a Bocephus sticker on his 442 he'd light em up just for fun

I never got it though. Is Claypool from a redneck family? I know they were auto mechanics, but I always though he was Jewish. Does he just enjoy singing with a country twang or what? Anyone know?

or just rate the song hah
