Charlie Watts Tentet

 Rob

The Police - "Message In A Bottle"

The Rolling Stones - "Gimme Shelter"

We lost a great musician and drummer. Rarely talked about for how great he was while just being always in the pocket. Never too flashy yet always the backbone to one of Rock and Roll's greatest bands!!

Married. T

Paul Simon - "You Can Call Me Al"

Note from the Group: Congrats to the Newly Weds!!!

The Rolling Stones - "Dead Flowers"

G-Man

Local H - "All The Kids Are Right"

A forgotten great song and video from a forgotten great band. 

The Rolling Stones - "Laugh, I Nearly Died"

We've all heard the news about Charlie Watts. An unimagineable career in one of the biggest Rock Bands of all time. Sadly, this is the kind of news we'll be hearing more and more in the next few years. Hold on to these songs. Dive into them. Enjoy the legacies.

The Rolling Stones - "Paint It Black"

Twisted Metal Black was the pinnacle of gaming when it was released in 2001. And this song as the game was booting up is where I discovered The Rolling Stones, which in turn I then learned my dad is a huge Stones fan. Just being a pup of 8 years old, I would watch my older siblings play. For me this song will forever churn up memories of bonding with my family whether it be my siblings over video games or with my father discovering music.

Cage - "Agent Orange"

City & Colour - "Save Your Scissors"

Mr. T

Average White Band - "Cut The Cake"

Sofi Tukker - "That's It (I'm Crazy)"

G-Man

Bloc Party - "Like Eating Glass"

This song can knock me down on the right day. Brings me right back to 2005/2006. A dizzying time for me.

The Tea Party - "Emerald"

Just a great song by a great Canadian band

Doug

The Pharcyde - "Passin' Me By"

This song smells like February to me

Staring Locations

Well after a 3 week vacation for the boys at Song Of The Day Friday we are back and ready to roll! Since we've missed some prime musical opportunities over the Holiday some of the lads are picking 3 songs this week! Rob, get us goin!

Collective Soul - "Breathe"

Death Cab For Cutie - "Northern Lights"

Amos The Transparent - "Coming Home"

Mr. T

Max Webster - "Diamonds Diamonds"

G-Man

A Perfect Circle - "So Long And Thanks For All The Fish"

A new album from APC has fans and casual listeners divided. The title of this song is an allusion to the Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy, which is what initially got me intrigued

Filter - "Where Do We Go From Here"

A Mild hit in the early to mid 2000's but I love it. This is what Song Of The Day is all about. Business like this.

Wolfpack - Wish

Picked up these guys' LP Lycanthrope Punk while I was in New Zealand, though I don't think they are Kiwis. I couldn't find much info on these guys. This is from 1998 and it just kicks it.
