Prelude - Nothing To Hide - Spirit
Posted 22 years ago by tom_tom:
For some unknown reason, I had never heard any Spirit before listening to Radio Paradise. I'm a big fan now 

Out of This World - The Cure
Posted 22 years ago by tom_tom:
This song and the album it's on are very reminiscent of Disintegration. Bloodflowers is supposedly the third part of a trilogy, along with Pornography and Disintigration.
Seen and Not Seen - Talking Heads
Posted 21 years ago by tom_tom:
Eno's influence is all over this one.
The Golden Age - Beck
Posted 22 years ago by tom_tom:
First to comment!
Beck's upcoming release has a folk/country sound very similar to Mutations, which is my favorite album of his.

Come to Mama, She Say - Grant Lee Buffalo

Those 2 earlier albums are much better than "Jubilee", although it has a couple of good tunes on it. I usually skip past this song, though.
Cowgirl In The Sand - Neil Young
Posted 22 years ago by tom_tom:
Heard CSNY perform this song last week. Gave me goosebumps when I recognized the guitar intro. I wasn't expecting to hear this great Neil Young gem.
Gypsy - Suzanne Vega

Bought this album in high school for the song Luka but soon fell in love with everything else on it including this wonderful song.
I'm on Standby - Grandaddy

Yeah, it's a pretty good album. Not as experimental as their previous release "The Sophware Slump" but more listenable.
Medieval Dream - Geoffrey Oryema

Reminds me of early Tears for Fears.
Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues - Bob Dylan
Posted 21 years ago by tom_tom:
...So whenever I hear this song, the first thing that comes to mind is "Finger Lickin' Good" from their album Check Your Head, where they sampled the line "Going back to New York City...." Hearing JLTTB in full afterwards is kinda weird.
Right there with you on that one :p I can't listen to this song without thinking of the Beasties.
Bring It On - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
Posted 21 years ago by tom_tom:
You think he wants us to bring it on?

I'll be seeing them tomorrow night in Dallas and can't hardly wait.

Some songs are pretty, but The Vines haven't got one their own identity...
Agreed, it's difficult to like the album as a whole. Just sounds like a bunch of pleasant-sounding but dissimilar songs.

This version's too clean-sounding, not gritty or dirty enough like the original. This sounds like the "Up With People" version or something!

Entertaining song. I usually can't stand kid singing but it works well here.
Some Like It Hot - Robert Palmer

Clocks - Coldplay

Anyone else agree?
Thought the same thing. Still, this is my favorite from their new album so far.
Shady Lane - Pavement

love it!
great album too.

Subterranean Homesick Alien - Radiohead
Posted 21 years ago by tom_tom:
I have to stop working and give this song my undivided attention everytime it comes on.
