The aim of this thread is that I will post a YouTube link up to a song that I am a fan of. The next person that comments rates the song out of ten and then puts his own link up and so on and so on! Hope it picks up, its a way for everyone to be introduced to others music tastes!

I like that song. I've never been to Salisbury Hill, but I don't think that matters. 7/10.

I'm not a fan of Mr Joel (although 'Uptown Girl' is a fine pop song) but I've heard this on the radio a few times and it's pretty damn good. 7.5/10.

Oooh Mary J. Saw her sing that live in Rotterdam. She blew 17,000 people away.

Such an outpouring of inner-pain. Such feeling. The only way to feel that kind of emotion and to really sell it live, is to actually have experienced it in Life. Im giving that rendition a 9/10. The one I heard was 10/10.

I just love fanatics. It shows they really care. Albeit in a scarey way. 9/10.
I got laid on that number, when I was 16. It took all of 10 secs - including foreplay(1 second)


This is for all the Scarlets fans out there.

Wow - weird. I was just thinking about that song. Its brilliant and I love the feelings expressed in it, but I can't listen to it too often...otherwise I might just throw myself in front of a train. Despite that I give S&G's Sound of Silence 9/10.

Now for a more cheerful 80s blast from the past:

If anyone has heard of this band I suspect they watch a certain TV show, otherwise they know a lot about music!

I picked one of their worse songs. 7/10 nice song, good beat, like the base on it, a bit of pettiness might be sneaking so that's why it didn't get more Wink

1/10. You're an imitator rather than an innovator. Don't know if anyone is getting their music but will post something more "mainstream" so and get derided for that, more the norm I suppose.

I've never liked that song. The verses are good, as is the lyric, but it's the saxophone on the chorus that spoils it for me. I've heard it so often it's become hackneyed. 6/10.
