Stings & Pretty Things



Rob

Against Me! - "Stop!"


Mr. T

TBD

G-Man

Big Business - "Let The Grind"

The album stood out. It was on display above the milk crates full of vinyl in the heavy metal section. The cover art intriguing, a large bejewelled owl, hand drawn or so it seemed. Reminded of "Prey" by Planes Mistaken For Stars. Another album I purchased solely because of the album art. Brought it home and let it spin. I thought to myself...how did I let it all slip by me?

Promethean Fire



We haven't had a theme as a collective in some time...Mr. T had the idea to reveal some of our Guilty Pleasures when it comes to music. Stuff we normally would hesitate to admit that we like out loud, with our friends, for fear of ridicule. But behind closed doors we can't help but bop our heads and tap our toes to. Looks like some members shed their skin a little more than others, while some still threw up a regular weekly pick. Almost a mixed bag as usual. Rob....kick us off...

Rob

Earth, Wind & Fire - "September"

So fucking catchy!!


Mr. T

Cher - "Turn Back Time"



Kenny Rogers & Dolly Parton - "Islands In The Stream"



G-Man

Soul Decision - "Faded"

This is an older one. I've kept it close to my chest for sometime. They're kind of a boyband but kind of not. They play their own instruments...that counts for something yeah? Shit..


Pitbull - "Timber" Feat. Ke$ha

Do I have to put the dolla sign in Kesha's name? I do. Ok then.


Doug

The Highwaymen - "Highwayman"

Sorry I forgot the theme! I will find something else


Whitney Houston - "I'm Every Woman"



Dano

Rihanna - "Umbrella" Travis Barker Remix



Fun. - "Some Nights"



Jonny HP

The Glorious Sons - "My Poor Heart"



Maroon 5 - "Wake Up Call"

I didn't read the requirements first. That Glorious Sons song up there has a bit of extra special meaning for me today. I was at a job today looking at water heaters. It was a camp called Camp Ooch. Look it up. Camp for children with cancer. My poor heart


Riiiick

Technatronic - "Move This"



Mike D

Bring Me The Horizon - "Sugar Honey Ice and Tea"

So hear me out. I could list some pop song by J Biebs or Adele, but literally everyone would be like "yeah I can see that" So this Emo rock shit is what I would interpret as my guilty pleasure. It's something I wouldn't put on the song of the week but I listen to more than occasionally


Hollywood Undead - "Young"



Thursday 21 November 2019

Yellow Instincts



Rob

Foo Fighters - "The Pretender"



Mr. T

Through A Filter Of Fortune



Rob

Neverending White Lights - "The Grace" feat. Dallas Green



Mr. T

Van Morrison - "Almost Independence Day"



G-Man

The Doors - "The End"

I can't right remember if I got more into this song because it was used prominently in Apocalypse Now, or I was drawn more to Apocalypse Now because this song was in it. Both epic pieces of art. High on my recommend lists.


Doug

Flight Of The Conchords - "The Most Beautiful Girl (In The Room)"

Did we have a theme this week? I hope not, because if we did I forgot what it was



Dano

Monkey3 - "Electric Mistress"

Ben Lee - "Cigarettes Will Kill You"

Never actually seen this video before. Takes a bit of a turn there. Great song from the late 90's early 00's that never really hit it big over here. Listen to this one a few times yea?

And 'cuz the Raptors are still the 2019 NBA Champions and always will be, this song has taken on new meaning this Summer
