Gone Gone Gone
Robert Plant & Allison Krause
An unlikely pairing on the surface, but he's a little bit folk a little bit metal & she's a little bit folk a little bit country
In My Room
Bill Medley
Great geezer trio as he pairs up with Brian Wilson & Phil Everly
Just Friends
Amy Winehouse
She is backed up by the Dap Kings and the baritone sax on the off-beat is just so ska & great autobiographical lyrics like "not in the evening when I've been working, not in the morning when your stuff works" - barely competing with the song that has "what kind of fuckery is this .. you made me miss the Slick Rick gig"
Cool People
Haystak
My friend Christy in Louisiana recommended him and he's this huge Southern white rapper & this is his gentle positive song which even each rap album must have
Kill Kill Kill
DJ Vadim
The guy on here can rap so fast in the Jamaican style & says "kill kill kill" - it's lyrical perfection with alot of good guest singers on this disc
Feedback
Janet Jackson
It sounds kind of like a Jam & Lewis production but it's Rodney Jerkins & a little bit electro, updating herself
Like Something 4 Porno!
Felix da Housecat
Good title & catchy enough to be an "earworm" - I don't mind
I Got This Down
Simian Mobile Disco
Heard this on my car radio and listening ever since
Just Let Go
Fischerspooner
Another one I put on repeat for housecleaning on day off
This World
Wighnomy Bros and Robag Wruhme
I love the bass - nice & minimalist & German
Honorable Mention:
Party With Saddam
Fishbone
best topical lyrics, already posted on this website - party song
Favorite musical quote: "Most people your age don't even know who Daft Punk IS." Nyc
Man... I would call myself retro 'cept I don't think I ever left the 70s in my musical preferences. I am like that crazy aunt who plays her 33's in her attic bedroom all day - drinking spiked tea.
I have never heard amy winehouse and just did a youtube scan. She's fabulous! Hope she lives!
