450. Ghostface Killah- Assassination Day (1996)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSOc_TAnPrk

The song is attributed to Ghost but it is basically the Clan, he isn't even on the cut. Classic song from a top 10 hip hop album ever.

[Fan since a Fetus]

451. Devin Townsend - Sunday Afternoon

[mbws]

452. Bigmouth Strikes Again - The Smiths

[Mr. Sinister]

Figured I'd go with something recent:

453.) The Sound Of Winter - Bush (2011)

Great song, great album (Sea Of Memories)

[HogNose]

454. Superman's Song- Crash Test Dummies

This band brings back some good memories....always loved their songs and lyrics.

459.) Nimrod (from the "Enigma" Variations) by Edward Elgar

All that is good and beautiful about English orchestral music is in this piece.

460. Voices of Babylon - The Outfield (1989)

[deejaydana]

461) Lord, I'm Discouraged---Hold Steady

This is a great track from a (somewhat) over-looked band. They have a couple really good cds. At their best, they evoke a sound similar to the better (early) Springsteen catalog. I've always been a huge sucker for piano-based or driven rock and these guys incorporate the piano to wonderful effect. The tempo change towards the end of this one is really well played.

[Going Commando]

Good song deejay. I always thought the hold steady sounded like Springsteen too.

Thx. Yeah, apparently they're supposed to be a really fun "bar band" to watch in a well, bar-room setting. I guess they're most likely playing bigger venues now.

462. Loomer - My Bloody Valentine

Hard to pick just one song off of Loveless but this one has always been one that gets in my head and stays for a while.

463. All the Young Dudes - David Bowie

[deejaydana]

463. America - Simon and Garfunkel.

They did a really cool job of incorporating this song into the movie Almost Famous. Great song from a really outstanding songwriter!
