pinkstones Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 In honor of the Beastie Boys, all three nominations will be songs they sampled on Paul's Boutique, and I'll put in brackets next to the song, what track the sample was used in. Sharon - David Bromberg (1972) [Johnny Ryall] Last Bongo In Belgium - Incredible Bongo Band (1973) [Looking Down The Barrel of a Gun] Loose Booty - Sly and the Family Stone (1974) [shadrach] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 1. "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me" ~ Linda Ronstadt (1976) One of the more haunting songs I've ever heard... love this melody (Skip to 2:05 to get past the pianist's solo) 2. "Shattered (Turn The Car Around)" ~ O.A.R. (2008) (one of the most fun interviews I've ever done was with lead singer Marc Roberge) 3. "First Time" ~ Lifehouse (2007) I've probably nominated this one before, but it's one of the songs that makes me smile every time I hear it.

Rayzor Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Lucky, I like your idea of extended voting! If I have more time I could listen to all songs. Rock You - Helix (WARNING: U.S. citizens may find nudity. Europeans call them breasts and pay no mind. Canadians too busy headbanging) Cemetery - Headstones A tune about necrophilia? The Bazaar - The Tea Party No Tea Party songs ever made Top Ten? How did we miss them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad_M Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I'll go with two. I can see it's going to be extra tough already. Having to give some really good songs a low vote because there are so many will cause me pain. Bring it on! :rock: "Turn Up The Radio" - Autograph (1984) "Seventeen" - Winger (1988) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLizard Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 This Too Shall Pass (2010) (Tim might recognise the additional musicians here ) I remember when the band did this. Ok Go actually came to ND later that year to perform this song with the marching band during halftime of a football game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
