    La la - Ashlee Moron. I hate that i found this song catchy.

    I'm pretty sure I'm the only 34 yr. old male that likes this. Then again, I've always been told I have a very "eclectic" taste in music.

    Maggot Brain - Funkadelic. I don't care for the poetic swearing that takes place on the first 30 seconds, but I love the next 10 minutes of guitar riffs. Totally surprised that they cranked that one out.

    He had nothing to do with the song other than singing on it, Sting is the reason why that song is good IMO..

    If you are surprised, you haven't listened to that much Funkadelic.


    The "poetic swearing" is good ****. And Funkadelic rules.

    Mother Earth is pregnant for the third time
    For y'all have knocked her up.
    I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe
    I was not offended
    For I knew I had to rise above it all
    Or drown in my own ****.

    Come on Maggot Brain
    Go on Maggot Brain




    Heve you heard "Good Thoughts, Bad Thoughts"? Eddie Hazel rips it up on that one too.

    Travel like a king
    Listen to the inner voice
    A higher wisdom is at work for you
    Conqering the stumbling blocks come easier
    When the conqueror is in tune with the infinite
    Every ending is a new beginning
    Life is an endless unfoldment
    Change your mind, and you change your relation to time

    You can find the answer
    The solution lies within the problem
    The answer is in every question
    Dig it?
    An attitude is all you need to rise and walk away
    Inspire yourself
    Your life is yours
    It fits you like your skin

    The oak sleeps in the acorn
    The giant sequoia tree sleeps in its tiny seed
    The bird waits in the egg
    God waits for his unfoldment in man
    Fly on, children
    Play on

    You gravitate to that which you secretly love most
    You meet in life the exact reproduction of your own thoughts
    There is no chance, coincidence or accident
    In a world ruled by law and divine order
    You rise as high as your dominant aspiration
    You descend to the level of your lowest concept of your self
    Free your mind and your ass will follow

    The infinite intelligence within you knows the answers
    Its nature is to respond to your thoughts
    Be careful of the thought-seeds you plant in the garden of your mind
    For seeds grow after their kind

    Play on, children

    Every thought felt as true
    Or allowed to be accepted as true by your conscious mind
    Take roots in your subconscious
    Blossoms sooner or later into an act
    And bears its own fruit
    Good thoughts bring forth good fruit
    Bull**** thoughts rot your meat
    Think right, and you can fly
    The kingdom of heaven is within
    Free your mind, and your ass will follow

    Play on, children
    Sing on, lady

    Totally agree with 'Swing Swing', that organ intro is just badass.

    Aerosmith - Cryin
    Coheed and Cambria - The Suffering
    Divinlys - I Touch Myself
    Five for Fighting - 100 years
    Limp Bizkit - My Way
    Sugar Ray - Every Morning

    A few more moe made me think of...

    Limp Bizkit, Break Stuff - I like the drummer for that band a lot.
    Sugar Ray, the one with the chorus that goes "answer the phone, I know that you're home" - Sounds kind of like early Weezer.
    Kanye West, Gold Digger - I'm embarrassed to admit this...

    I'll have to check that song out Mr Meowgi. I admit that haven't listened to them that much - mainly because I thought they were part of the disco scene because that's what my wife listened to and she had their albums. I saw from Maggot Brain that I was wrong.

    To be fair it was a "live" version but I still like it better than Ted's version. What's the name of that free hosting site, I have the song and will upload it there but I can't remember what the site was

    Not everyone likes the same bands. If he doesn't like Aerosmith, but likes that song, it's exactly what this thread is asking for.

    I'm glad most of my music is widely considered good and is hard enough to offset the following. :eek:

    4 Non Blondes - What's Up?
    Berlin - Take My Breath Away (must be 'cause of Top Gun)
    Amy Grant - Baby Baby (wow, I should really just stop now, shouldn't I?) :eek:
    All-American Rejects - Swing, Swing
    There are several Avril Lavigne songs I deem okay... someone help me
    Bow Wow - Fresh AZIMIZ
    Drowing Pool - Bodies
    Eve 6 - Inside Out
    Extreme - More Than Words
    Fiona Apple - Criminal (nothing embarrassing about this one)
    Fountains of Wayne - Stacy's Mom
    Hole - Celebrity Skin
    INXS - Need You Tonight (I don't care for the band at all, but I really love the riff in that song)
    I could keep going, but it'd probably be better to stop.

    In light of recent events...

    Toby Keith - "I'm a Ford Truck Man" ;) (from the commercial), I also dont' mind the song with all the flag waving and vitriol, I think it's "Courtesy of the Red, White & Blue." -I know that's not a very "pc" song anymore, but you gotta admit, it captured the feelings of a lot of people right after 9/11... I mostly despise all C&W music though...

    Some long term faves of bands/artists I don't really like...

    Creed - "Higher" -a BBS favorite to bash
    Michael Jackson - every song on the radio from albums "Off The Wall" to "Bad" -really a sad person now, and a sadder story of recent events
    Hanson - "Um Bop" -now really, that's strange -my wife's name for them is "Anacin" because they cause headaches
    Guns & Roses - "Civil War" & "Cold Novemember Rain" - I now these are in two different incarnations of the band, and sound somewhat similar... I don't mind Slash's riffs on early stuff... my disdain is for Axl.
    Limp Bizkit - "Rollin'" -comedy gold
    Jah Rule (appearrance by) - "Can I get a.." from Rush Hour... ever since then he's a joke
    Kanye West - "Jesus Walks" -some odd theology in there, but I get what he's trying to say -otherwise he was better when he first came out with the name "Nas" ;)
    AC/DC - "Thunderstruck" yep, I know many of you live to relive the Angus riffs and such... and a few other songs I can stand, but really... should you sound like a consitipated man trying to sing through his rectum?
    The Fugees - "Ready or Not" -they were done after this classic... and where are they now? Really?

    There are more... I'd just have to listen the mix station to hear them. :cool:
