Rate the Song: Take Two!

[Duke87 1,070]

9/10 - Certainly one of Nirvana's better songs. You would have gotten 10/10 if you'd posted Pennyroyal Tea.

 

Here's something else which is one of the best 90s songs out there in my book. Whole album is great, actually, but since we're only posting single songs here...

4/10- I mean, 6/10.  To be fair, however, I am not much of a Goo Goo Dolls fan.  They are a LOT better than the Gin Blossoms, though.  *shudders*  You know what, this song has good lyrics, though.  I'll bump that up to a solid 6.

 

Sticking with our 90s theme:

Bush - Machinehead

[BLANKBLANK 4,414]

7/10. Nice rock metal and I liked the chorus.

 

 

Going back to the 70s:

[Mithrik 562]

8/10. A very nice song with some good piano to add in to the emotion.

 

Some Gorillaz, the name is VERY similar to that one from Billy Joel, that's why I decided to put it.

9/10:  Because of you, I went on a long Gorillaz-watching Youtube spree.  Another fantastic tune.

 

Deftones - Mein

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

9/10 - Certainly one of Nirvana's better songs. You would have gotten 10/10 if you'd posted Pennyroyal Tea.

Totally agreed. If I opened a bar or cafe, that'd be what I'd call it.

Also 6.5/10 to the last one; Alien Ant Farm do this music so much better.

[Snazzell 3]

I'll start.

 

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

As for Sevendust's Licking Cream: 10/10.  Dude, Sevendust is awesome.  Having Skin from Skunk Anansie is just a cherry on an awesome cake.

 

As for The Tuss's whatever: 1/10.  That was bad.  Derivative electronic nonsense.  It would be more at home in a bad, late 90s PC game than it is traveling through my headphones and into my ears.  Oh god, this thing is six and a half minutes long.  Yikes.

 

Vow by Garbage

[Mithrik 562]

7.5/10. The tune is nice and it has a good rhythm, but I think they overdid the distortion thingy a bit.

 

Radiohead's Jigsaw Falling into Place... no clever things to say about this one.

9/10: Second best on In Rainbows, only to reckoner.

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

8/10  That was fun, that was a good song, and a funny enough video.  I'm glad they don't take themselves too seriously, and that helps when you're talking about punk (or at least punk-ish music).

 

Shiina Ringo's La Salle de Bain

[SkeletonTiger 6]

6/10. The song was alright but the music video was bothering me. it became sort of a distraction from the music.

July - My Clown (1968)

[Mithrik 562]

5/10. I always try to evade psychedelic rock, I find it either incredibly trippy or very dull. This case was the second, I found quite dull and generally didn't show much interest in it. It sounds nice, but it's not great and it's definitely not my cup of tea.

 

Don't Panic, it's just a Coldplay song.

[SkeletonTiger 6]

5/10. The song is ok though it does lack the kind of sound I typically enjoy out of a song. I feel like this is one of the songs with a music video that detracts from the music itself. Not bad, but not something I could get in to.

The Open Mind - Magic Potion (1969)

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

5/10:  It's not bad, but the drumming makes it sound waaaaaaaaaaaaay dated (maybe it's just the mixing, the drummer's pretty decent), and I find the lyrics to be super cheesy.

 

Tokyo Jihen's version of lead singer Shiina Ringo's first big hit Honnou (本能, or Instinct)

[Mithrik 562]

7.5/10. The singing was nice, but since 95% of my contact with Japanese music comes from anime, I couldn't stop thinking about this being in an intro for one. Still, the song is nicely performed.

 

It's Time to Imagine Dragons.

8/10. I like Demons better, but that is opinion.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iS1g8G_njx8 Problem, Ariana Grande (2014)

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

4/10:  This loses points for me because I generally do not listen to pop music.  This just sounds like everything else, I don't know what it has that can distinguish it from any other cute girl singing shallow pop songs.  Plus that Iggy broad is really irritating.

 

My Own Summer (Shove It) by the Deftones

[Mithrik 562]

6/10. Not really a fan for their style, I think there's some nice tune here, but I'm pretty "meh" for me. It sounds to me like your standard hard rock/metal song with some low-loud dynamic thrown in.

 

Don't let the Karma Police get you, kids, you are gonna have a bad time.

2/10. I didn't like this song when I first heard it, and now it is not gonna change.

Turn Down For What- DJ Snake and LiL' Jon

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

1/10: Dude, that "song" was difficult to give any points to.

 

Jack White: Sixteen Saltines

[SkeletonTiger 6]

7/10: Not bad. The song definitely has a great kick to it, but not quite my cup of tea most of the time.

Tame Impala - Endors Toi (2012)

[Temeku 0]

7.5/10 Very good. That's some old-school mixing being done in there, I like it. A retro late 60's-early 70's + modern feel to it.

 

 

(White Man) In Hammersmith Palais - The Clash (1978)

[Munchiez 74]

I love the Clash! 8/10
 
Here's another fav of mine by them:

[Dazzyls 576]

5/10: It's just not my music.

 

[Charlie_Zane 963]

8/10 - I could listen to that. 

 

 

Just trying to get feedback... 

[BLANKBLANK 4,414]

5/10. A by-the-by pop song. Easy to listen to but not much to listen to.

[Dazzyls 576]

7/10: Nice and relaxing, but too jazzy for me.

 

(It has a long intro, it really starts at 0:28)

[Dazzyls 576]

Can I post a new one, because I want to keep this topic alive?

 

Well, here it is:

[korver 27,685]

10/10.
