Lea Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 (edited) I was also going to nominate Float On but I figured I'd wait a couple of weeks because I had just done Bukowski. I would like to see more Modest Mouse in the tens. I really like them and their from Seattle Edited November 14, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steel2Velvet Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Holy crap, a Top Ten with the Beatles, Stones, and Led Zeppelin! Who'da thunk it? But it's a really, really good Stones song I know, darling. I just like to pick at the old folks. Here's one old folk who didn't vote for any of the "Big 3" classic group songs this TT. I felt my list very avante garde. :guitar: .. I even liked her eyebrows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I´m an old vicious lady who loves "Moonlight Mile" and "ôm a Loser"...

_Laurie_ Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Everybody Hurts This is such a sad song by REM....But I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeBB Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 (edited) My apologies for the poor attempt at humour. My personal fave REM album is their 2nd, Reckoning. I love the first album, but it's a little spoiled by early 80s drum sounds ;-( Thanks for the recommendations, though. Those are both wonderful. I think Everybody Hurts is truly one of THE great songs. Michael STipe has always bothered me (since I heard his comments about the Beatles, for example), but that somg redeems him for me. Thanks again (and I apologise again), LeeBB Edited November 14, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeBB Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Truthfully though, there were MANY songs in that nominations list that I have not heard nor heard of. I am going to have to get hold of them and start educating myself. THanks everyone, LBB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted November 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 ^^ That ^^ is not only the one of the benefits, but actually the beauty of participating in the Tens. You get to learn so much music that you otherwise never have the chance to! Speaking of which ... y'all need to aquaint yoursleves with Mr Dave Mason! Hey Lee, did I welcome you to the Tens? In case I did not .... Welcome to The Top Ten, Guppie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeBB Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Thank you, Lucky, Are you talking Dave Mason from Traffic, or Dave Mason of The Reels? Both well worth the effort. Some of my fave memories are of the Reels' legendary Christmas shows... But that's probably a little too local for you foreign types ;-) Love, LBB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karma Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Great tt this week. Edna, I don't for a minute believe you are either old or viscious. Age is only a number anyway. I personally think that you are a sweetie. Welcome to Songfacts Lee. Nice to have you aboard. I am I think, the youngest member here . Congrats on getting both of your songs in the tt this week. Keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Welcome, Lee! Seems like everyone who joins the Top Ten immediately gets one or two of their nominations in I'm very happy about Moonlight Mile... I'm a Loser is nice too. All the rest... ah well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Fin, once again, I couldn´t agree more with you... Edna, I don't for a minute believe you are either old or viscious. Age is only a number anyway. I personally think that you are a sweetie. Thank you, Karma... And I think you´re a cool and rocking charming young lady... Well, I just pretend to be old and vicious... Lee, welcome to the asylum, as Peachy would say. You love it here, you´ll love it more and more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeBB Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 (edited) Hey Seeker, I'm not sure what to say to a 21-year-old who says "Oh Well" to The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down. I hope that just means that you haven't yet discovered the joys of that sad and wonderful song. I imagine that the poignancy would be all the greater if I were American, or even from The South, but even we Un-Americans can find something there to tear at our hearts. A friend of mine recently married a woman from Taiwan. She had never heard the Beatles, although she had heard the name. Now, in her thirties, she is discovering that whole fantastic world of stuff that is all brand new to her. I hope that that is why you say "Oh Well" ;-) See ya, LeeBB Edited November 16, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Hey Lee, Seeker is 21 but he knows a lot, you can discuss anything with him and has wonderful taste in music. Plus he got brains. Not the kind of guy who just goes with the flow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It IS poignant, but I'm still no great fan of it. That's nothing to do with the lyrics or its meaning... I just don't like the melody, the arrangement, the whole atmosphere of the music. That's why I can take or leave it, and don't care much for it making the Top Ten. Edited November 16, 2008 by Guest edna! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
