February 26th, 2016

Little bit of espionage going on this week as Rob and G-Man decided to pick songs from the forgotten decade of 2000-2009. Though a twist is included as well, they've picked a song they think is great and one that is not so great! What do you think?

Rob

The Good:
30 Seconds To Mars - "The Kill"




The Bad:
Hinder - "Lips Of An Angel"

Note from G-Man: Rob, you're going to be disappointed in me. This might be a guilty pleasure song for me. Plus one of Canada's finest beauties Emmanuelle Chiriqui is in the video. I get it though, it was considered ear-cancer when it was released...



Mr. T

The Chainsmokers - "Roses"


Although a little out of left field from my usual pick, this song has been stuck in my head for a few weeks and when heard on the old radio I find myself turning it up.




G-Man

The Good:
Switchfoot - "Meant To Live"

I feel this song is very underrated. Released in 2003 on the album The Beautiful Letdown, it still holds up to this day. It's got that leftover laisse-faire attitude that the 90's owned so well, but with a little bit of an updated tinge. Maybe we've been living with our eyes half-open...



The Bad:
Jet - "Look What You've Done"

Yeah, nice band name Jet! And way to go ripping off John Lennon on this song!! Duuhh!! OK, I guess I should at least try to explain my self more eloquently. Never saw the appeal of Jet, felt there first song "Are You Gonna Be My Girl" was full of try-hard bravado, and a blatant style-swipe from the vintage era of rock n' roll, the 1960's. (Which was done better by Iggy Pop on "Lust For Life" and Jet ripped that off too!!) Anyone it started there and it never came back around for me.


Doug

The Tragically Hip - "Highway Girl/Double Suicide" (Live)



Dano

Tool - "The Pot"
