Rob

Jimi Hendrix - "All Along The Watchtower"

Mr. T

The Spinners - "The Rubberband Man"

G-Man

Motorhead - "Devil I Know"

Lemmy Kilmister is famous for many things. Being a singing bass player, front man of the loudest band of all time, ravenous whiskey drinker, legendary groupie-banger, monster moles on his famous and one of rock and roll's most famous handlebar moustaches.

Rob

Mighty Mighty Bosstones - "Someday I Suppose"

Mr. T

G-Man

Sublime - "Garden Grove"

One thing I like about Sublime, when their lead singer Bradley Nowell passed away they called it quits. 3 albums. 5 years. That was Sublime. Respect. Track one off of their fantastic 1996 self-titled album was "Garden Grove". Goodage

Doug

Metallica, The Roots & Jimmy Fallon - "Enter Sandman"

Dano

North Mississippi AllStars - "Mississippi Bollweevil"

Rob

Our Lady Peace - "Is It Safe"

Mr. T

TBD

G-Man

Leonard Cohen - "Nevermind"

There's alot going in the world these days. I had a bit of material to inspire today's pick. Donald Trump. Remembrance Day. But this, after all, is a music blog and I feel the passing of one of Canada's greats should get the nod. Not that it comes as much of a shock. Cohen himself recently mentioned that he felt his time was near and was ready, but it's still a career and catalog worthy of honouring. RIP.

Doug

Pet Shop Boys - "Always On My Mind / In My House"

Dano

NOFX - "The Idiots Are Taking Over"

November 4th, 2016

Rob

Blink 182 - "Dammit"

Mr. T

Michael Jackson - "Man In The Mirror"

This song has been bouncing around in my head for a few weeks. Ow. It's carrys an all around good message and the part I like most, the uplifting melody. Easy to remember and fun to listen to.

I still think G-man may have lost a bet.

G-Man

Nickelback - "If Everyone Cared"

No Mr. T and I didn't purposely both pick songs about changing the world. Sometimes the planets just line up that way. I don't subscribe to the blind hatred that Nickelback gets. It's toothless and misguided. I don't follow trends and I am not going to jump on that train. They have a wide selection of great songs. Exhibit A

Doug

Kings Of Leon - "Hands To Myself"

Dano

Royal Blood - "Figure It Out"
