It seems like I need to update my music library. I figured this thread could help everyone find a new song or two so why not?
Famous songs or not, list some favorites. I've had a lot of songs play at work lately that are older, but were popular and I have no clue what they are. It's frustrating when I get home and I can't think of the lyrics to google. If you know some obvious semi-famous ones, toss them down too. I was brainwashed to Rap for a while. People in college finally play a blend. Some songs I never skip: Drops of Jupiter Meet Virginia - Train Knock you down - Keri Hilson Iris- Goo Goo Dolls Scar tissue- Red hot chili peppers Dynamite- Taio Cruz All the right moves / Stop and stare - One Republic American Pie - Don Mcleon Free Fallin - Tom Petty Be like that- 3 Doors Down Richman- 3oh3! Forever- Chris Brown Quick run through the playlist. -------------

Well, here lately I discovered the Live version of "Life Without You" from Stevie Ray Vaughan's In Step album. The solo is amazing.
Otherwise-
Creedence Clearwater-Hey Tonight, I Heard it Through the Grapevine, Susie Q, and pretty much anything else they ever did.
The Black Keys-Grown So Ugly
The White Stripes-Anything they ever did, but mainly Jolene, Ball and Biscuit, Black Math, and Astro
Shinedown-Simple Man
The Misfits-Hybrid Moments
Social Distortion-Prison Bound, Ring of Fire
Tom Petty-Saving Grace
Kenny Wayne Shepherd-King's Highway
Down-Bury Me in Smoke
Jonny Lang-Good Morning Little Schoolgirl
Jeff Buckley-Hallelujah
Not very many obscure hits, but that's a few that I've been playing.

Of all the badass, classic, singalong stuff Mike Ness has done, these are the only ones you can come up with? Prison Bound is great, and it's a mean cover of Ring of Fire, but that's it? |

I was under the impression he was just looking for a basic direction to go in, so I was pointing him to SD. Most definately not the finest / extent of his catalog though, for sure.
Same with the Black Keys. Their whole discography is very worthy of listen, and on Distortion / The Keys, they're both better live than on album.

Stone Sour is lightyears ahead of Slipknot live, IMO. Such a great bar band, minus the teen agnst of the other band.
ZZyzx Rd for sure.

Pretty much anything by the Strokes is easy listening.
The Eagles-Everything they ever did.
Sublime-Badfish
The Toadies-Doll Skin, plus their radio stuff
Susan Tedeschi-It Hurts so Bad
The Dead Weather-Gasoline
Cross Canadian Ragweed-Dimebag, Alabama, Sick and Tired
The Clash-London Calling, Should I Stay or Should I Go
Bishop Lamont-City Lights (Crappy rap, but I got hooked on the main riff from Midnight Club LA haha)
Audioslave-I Am the Highway, Shadow on the Sun
Stone Temple Pilots-Interstate Love Song, Dead and Bloated, Big Empty, etc etc
Theory of a Dead Man-Santa Monica
Tool-Aenima
Wolfmother-Woman, Apple Tree
ZZ Top-Blue Jean Blues
10 Years-Wasteland, Russian Roullete
Three Dog Night-Never Been to Spain (Not gonna lie, Hansen covered this well. Never question how I know this.)
John Mayer-Covered in Rain, Slow Dancing in a Burning Room, I'm Gonna Find Another You, Lenny / Man on the Side
Jimi Hendrix-Red House, Somewhere over the Rainbow, All Along the Watchtower, Like a Rolling Stone (On second thought...just d/l the whole collection)

Yes. I'm actually a huge Audioslave fan, I've got pretty much every song they ever did. Notsomuch Soundgarden, and for sure not Chris Cornell's solo career.
I heard Shadow on the Sun in Collateral in the scene where the wolf walks across the road, and I've been hooked ever since. Michael Mann's movies have a way of hypnotizing you with mellow music and city night scenes.

Jack White = most talented musician of our current generation.
Strato, big ups for mentions the Black Keys, awesome duo. If you like them, check out Gnarls Barkley. My suggestions/everyone needs to listen to these songs: Queens of the Stone Age - Little Sister Modest Mouse - Missed the Boat MGMT - Electric Feel Vampire Weekend - Cousins Arctic Monkeys - From the Ritz to the Rubble Bloc Party - Banquet Outkast - BOB Nas - Hero Kanye West - Gone Kid Cudi - Up Up and Away Lupe Fiasco - Cool -------------

I've always dug Gnarls Barkley's sound, their lead has a great mellow voice. Who's Gonna Save My Soul Now is one of the nicest sounding R&B songs I've heard in a while.
Speaking of QOTSA, some other great songs by them-
Song for the Dead, Like a Drug, No One Knows, God is in the Radio, and the Sky is Falling.
Eagles of Death metal is a great side project of QOTSA that has some pretty chilled out music as well.
And I had completely forgotten about Modest Mouse, but some great stuff by them-
Whale Song, Dramamine, Float On, etc etc.

I love Cee Lo's voice, and he's a great rapper as well. And if anyone is a fan of Danger Mouse, check out his mixtape with MF Doom, DangerDoom. And I can't believe I forgot Jay Electronica in my list. Notable tracks by him are "When The Levees Broke" and "Exhibit C". -------------

Like all of these songs. My directly related additions would include Giving Up The Gun by Vampire Weekend, Make It Wit Chu by Queens of the Stone Age and Time to Pretend by MGMT. Also, I have to say Electric Feel and Make It Wit Chu are some of the better babymaking songs of recent music (that I pay attention to). One unrelated suggestion: Animal by Miike Snow. -------------

Oh, I'm going to have to add: The Pogues - And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda. It's a pretty good cover of probably one of the most depressing songs ever. ------------- irc.esper.net #paintball |

Only correction I would say is Led Zeppelin - A-Z.
Also:
Motley Crue - "Shout at the Devil" "Jump Start my Heart"
Van Halen - Anything pre- 1984
Ratt - "Round and Round"
Bad Company - "Bad Company"
Skynard - "Freebird" "Sweet Home Alabama" Et.al
ZZ Top - La Grange
Blue Oyster Cult - "Godzilla" " Don't Fear the Reaper"
Aerosmith - "Back in the Saddle"
Alice in Chains - "Would"
Soundgarden- "Spoonman" "Blackhole Sun" - Anything with Chris Cornell is bound to be pretty good. Which leads to
Temple of the Dog - "Hunger Strike"
Rage Against the Machine - "Renegades of Funk"
NIN - Pretty Hate Machine
Johnny Cash - "Hurt"
Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Suck my Kiss" "Love Rollercoaster"
The Cult - "Fire Woman" "Rain"
Ministry - "Twitch" "Jesus Built my Hotrod"
Janes Addiction - Entire first side of Ritual De La Habitual
The Cure - "Close to Me"
Love and Rockets - "So Alive" "All in my Mind"

I've been into this band called Throw Rag recently. But if we're talking about bands that everyone should indeed know: All three albums by Daft Punk. |
