Twist Mother Tongue

Some of our members are picking songs honouring the Canada Day weekend! Hope everyone has a happy and safe long weekend! Mr. T...what you got?

Mr. Toque

Bryan Adams - "Shine A Light"

Canada Day Saturday!!! What WHAT!!

G-Man

Matthew Ryan - "Guilty"

This song was always around me, but never directly in my crosshairs. Until recently. It's imperfections are what used to keep this song on the outskirts, but now, they're what make the song great. Genuine heart and soul.

Doug

John Lee Hooker - "I Hated The Day I Was Born"

Daneaux

Half Moon Run - "Hotel In Memphis"

Supertramp much?

Jonny Hockey Practice

The Arkells - "You Can Get It feat. K. Flay"

Mike D

David Bowie - "Ziggy Stardust"

In honour of Ziggy de Launay

J.B.

Lord Huron - "I Lied feat. Allison Ponthier"

This one deserves your headphones, kind of a trip

Navy Red

Rob

Taking Back Sunday - "Up Against"

Mr. T

Tom Paxton - "Ramblin' Boy"

G-Man

Metallica - "Wherever I May Roam" (S&M2 Version)

At every occasion, a Metallica song. Though "Wherever I May Roam" was one I may have listened to too much in my days. A staple at live shows, it definitely got preferred treatment when they joined up with San Fancisco Symphony Orchestra. This take is from their second show together, 2019.

Doug

Natty Bong - "No Diggity"

Dano

Wilco & Billy Bragg - "Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key"

Jonny HP

TBD

Mike D

The Arkells & K. Flay - "You Can Get It"

J.B.

Tame Impala - "The Less I Know The Better"

Truly a mashup psychadelic/synth-pop band, Tame Impala has some ultra chill Summer tunes. I think we all need some feel good sounds these days. Seriously, give them a try, might not be your normal jam, but glad I tried them out.

The Dodo & The Thylacine

Rob

State Of Shock - "Money Honey"

Mr. T

Little Feat - "Dixie Chicken"

G-Man

The Apples In Stereo - "Dance Floor"

There's a song out there. Super Lo-Fi, kind of alternative sounding, male vocals. The chorus is basically just "Dance Floor, Dance Floor". It's not this song, but I stumbled across it during my quest for that other elusive tune. This one is fantastic though....almost better than the one i'm searching for

Doug

Arkells - "Quitting You"

Dano

Red Tail Ring - "Bowling Green"

Jonny HP

James Taylor - "Fire & Rain"

Mike D

The Haunted - "D.O.A"

Since a bus tried to kill me on Monday....

Foo Fighters - "D.O.A"

J.B.

Public Service Broadcasting -"The Race For Space"

The Summer Of Swine

It's been a while since we themed it up here at Song Of The Day, so this week we got a little creative. Remember that song that reminds you of the Summer of '96? How about '06? Well this week the guys are giving you the song that will remind them of the Summer of 2019!! Some of them may have had to dig deep, but let's see what the future holds...

Rob

Amos The Transparent - "That's The Life For Me"

Mr. T

Mac Rebennack - "Storm Warning"

Human League - "Don't You Want Me"

Queen - "Radio Gaga"

This one is honour of Freddie Mercury's birthday!!

G-Man

Faith No More - "A Small Victory"

I've always appreciated Faith No More, Mr. Bungle and Mike Patton in general, but never really dove too deep into their respective catalogs until this Summer. Found some gems as one would expect...

Queen - "We Are The Champions"

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