Hopeful Pirates Sometimes Get In Accidents - Tuesday Shuffle

There's Been An Accident - Twilight Singers.  One of the few inorganic, forced Twilight songs.  It's good enough, just a bit plastic.

 

Sometimes - Pearl Jam.  No Code gets a bad rap.  It's a great album and this song is great itself.

 

Pirate By Thirty - Ice Palace.  Hipster douchebaggery that's not always my cup of tea but this song is tolerable.

 

Tell Her About It - Billy Joel.  Nice surprise!  This is a toe tapper AND a finger…

Die - Pain - Blood. Monday Shuffle

Forever - Skid Row.  I have never heard this song until this very moment.  Picked up a Skid Row "best of" a couple of weeks back and this was on it.  Two shades above good with shades of excellent.

 

Walking On Sunshine - Katrina and the Waves.  I'm dancing!  I dance just like The Jerk.  Glad I'm alone.

 

Die Walkure - Wagner.  Hitler and I have Wagner boners in common.  That's it though.  I swear!

 

House of Pain - Van Halen.  No complaints when DLR…

Spaceship Taking Me Up And Down Shuffle - Friday

Closer - Kings of Leon.  This spooky tone pretty cool and works.

 

Pick Me Up - Dinosaur Jr.  Dinosaur Jr has been coming up with a decent frequency lately.  It makes me happy.

 

Don't Let Me Down - Twisted Sister.  Too demo-y sounding.  An outside producer should have punched it up.

 

Caught Up In A Dream - Tesla.  No complaints.  It's Tesla!

 

Apollo I, The Writing Writer -Coheed & Cambria.  The names of C&C songs always…

Riding With My Unchained Self In Mississippi Shuffle - Thursday

Riding On The Wind - Judas Priest.  Amateurish.  Always thought JP sounded like a bar band.

 

Me, Myself and I - De La Soul.  Love it.  One of the best rap songs ever.

 

All Those Yesterdays - Pearl Jam.  There is nary a better band but I'm just not feeling this song right now.

 

Unchained - Johnny Cash.  Not to be an ass, but I was hoping for some harder edged rock today.  Any other time I'd be singing the praises of…

Peaceful Stone Slinger Shuffle - Wednesday

You Lookin' At Me Lookin' At You - Ozzy Osbourne.  Slow and not that great.  The solo is okay.

 

Peace On Earth - U2.  I dont think this has ever come up on a shuffle and I know that I've never intentionally played it.  U2 is definitely a once in a while proposition.

 

Jizzlobber - Faith No More.  Great song with a funny name.

 

Carve Away The Stone - Rush.  Rush is definitely a daily proposition.  Nothing fantastic here but still enjoyable to any…

Bodies Filled With Eyes Shuffle - Tuesday

Fill Her Up - Sting.  A really good country song from an English dude.  Who would have thought?

 

Bodies - Smashing Pumpkins.  Probably the hardest rocking song on Mellon Collie.  Glad to hear it in fact.

 

Help Is On The Way - Sixx A.M.  I've only been through the CD once and wasn't fully impressed but I'm liking this song quite a bit.  Nice and varied instrumentation.  Poppy chorus.

 

The Idiot Box - Shadows Fall.  Great Metallica influenced jam.…

Monday Pod Shaking Shuffle.

Out Ta Get Me - Guns N' Roses.  Axl is fuckin' innocent.  One of the lesser songs on Appetite.  

 

Coming 2 America - Ludacris.  I'm kinda embarrassed that I liked this 10 years ago.  This is shitty.

 

Real Grrrl - The Cult.  Ah, The Cult trying to be Pearl Jam.  It's okay.

 

Unemployable - Pearl Jam.  I like the self titled album quite a bit.  

 

Flashback - Twilight Singers.  Mark Lanegan takes lead vocals on this song from the EP…

Friday's Funky Salty People Shuffle

Ocean Breathes Salty - Modest Mouse.  This song has pretty much everything I want.  Wish they could have repeated the tone one later releases.

 

Renegades Of Funk - Rage Against The Machine.  Tom Morello knows his instrument.  Hope they put out some new music.

 

Lightning Bulb - Dinosaur Jr.  Off a later release but it sounds like an organic late 80's college rock song with some talent behind it.

 

Night People - Dio.  I will punch a motherfucker in…

Hold On Cool Breeze Shuffle

Say Your Prayers - Bullet Boys.  I kinda disliked this band in the late 80's but they've grown on me since.  Marq Torien is a prancing dandy on stage but he does it like a man.

 

Naturally High - The Cult.  One of the better tracks on their self titled CD.  Progressive bass line and great guitar tone.

 

New Cannonball Blues - TV On The Radio.  Completely let down by the newest CD.  Completely uninspired.

 

Your House - Jimmy Eat World.  JEW usually…

Drugged Babies By Decision Edition Shuffle

Your Decision - Alice In Chains.  Havent spent too much time with Black Gives Way To Blue since I got it.  Aint bad.  The new guy is good.  Decent harmonizing.

 

Knocked Up - Kings Of Leon.  Damn.  Why couldnt they give us more of this on the new album.  With all sincerity, I love this song.

 

Dosed - Red Hot Chili Peppers.  Good mid tempo song.  Used to be completely enthralled by this.  It's more background music these days.

 

Brain Fuckler Theme -…

Keep Bailing On Ice Cream Shuffle On A Tuesday

Annie Mae - The Twilight Singers.  Recently put a bunch of uncompressed songs on the ol' iPod.  This is one of them.  Never heard the effects heavy bass on it before.  Cool.  Seeing them on Thrusday too!

 

Can't Get Enough - Winger.  Ah, one of the songs that feeds into the poppy bullshit Winger was known for.  Don't care for it.

 

Half-steering Half-eating Ice Cream - The Neptunes.  Always really like this song, can't put my finger on why though.  Fun song I…

Troubling Yet Peaceful Straws Edition

It's Sunday night and I got nothin' better to do. Here's a shuffle.

 

Shortest Straw - Metallica. Love this song but the drumming seems less than inspired. Not a lot of fills. Lars may suck a bit.

 

Special Cases (Akufen Remix) - Massive Attack. Remixes almost always suck.

 

Peace Sells - Megadeth. Ah, I was just thinking of this song. See above (First line).

 

Times of Trouble - Temple of the Dog. Pearl Jam fronted by Chris Cornell…

Fire Cooked Puddin' From The Shack Shuffle.

Puddin' Taine - Primus.  Les captures the essence of the every man character with ease.

 

Infectious Grooves - Infectious Grooves.  More bands should have songs about how great the band is.

 

The Prince - Metallica.  Metallica has a way of taking a cover and making it their own.  I like the punky feel of this'un.

 

The Love Shack - The B-52's.  Fred Schneider has the most entertaining voice ever.  I saw them in concert one time and the audience was…

Back In The Saddle Thursday Shuffle.

It's been a while.  Time to get this  sucker moving.

 

Warped - Red Hot Chili Peppers.  Ah.  Another song about drug addiction by RHCP.  They should have stopped after Knock me down.  It was the high point.

 

True Love Way - Kings of Leon.  Superb song all around.  Too bad the newest album sucks shit.

 

What I Got - Sublime.  Spent a few days in a college town recently.  They still listen to this song at the bars.  It is pretty good after…

Final Friday Shuffle Edition

Off on an excursion.  This'll be the las shuffle for a week or two.

 

Crucified - Sevendust.  One of the few bands from the late 90's that I will admit liking.  Been listening to 'em quite a bit over the last few weeks.

 

Wasting My Time - Jimmy Page.  I picked up a Geffen compilation earlier this week and this song was on it.  Unremarkable, standard.

 

Other Side - Pearl Jam.  A goody off of the Lost Dogs disc.  That Lost Dogs set is worth the…

Late Thursday Shuffle!

Casting Shade - Shadows Fall.  Don't know much about this band or song.  Picked the CD up used and havent paid much attention.  Instrumental. So far it's not grabbing me.  Not bad though.



Duchess - The Gutter Twins.  A cover. Enjoyable cover too.  I only the know the song in this context though.



Grinder - Judas Priest.  Priest continual causes me to be dismayed.  Never understood why people go ape shit over them.  Just a regular shitty rock song.



This Is A…

Wednesday Shuffle Strangero

You Will Miss Me When I Burn - Soulsavers.  Marl Lanegan sings this dour song.  Damn.  This song is a huge bummer but I cant stop listening.  Cello and piano together cant be anything but sad.

 

Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love - Van Halen.  Semi-good looking is a great lyric.

 

Orion - Metallica.  It's a war march of an instrumental.  Good workout song.

 

The Lure Would Prove Too Much - The Twilight Singers.  I'd love it if it wasnt for the French lyric in…

New Foo Fighters Tuesday Shuffle

Ritualist - Dimmu Borgir.  This kind of death metal is more accessible than you'd think.  Still not as good as Dethklok though.  

 

Emperor's New Horse - The Cult.  The Cult can do better.  In fact they usually do.

 

Sour Girl - Stone Temple Pilots.  I absolutely hated this when it came out.  It's grown on me since.

 

We're No Gonna Take It - Twisted Sister.  My 9 and 10 year old nephews know this song.  And that's without my…

Five Time: Monday Edition

Fade - King's X.  Was hoping for something more upbeat to start it out.  Oh well.

 

One Way Out - The Allman Brothers Band.  Jeez, this is surprisingly good.  Think my musical likes are shifting a bit to more bluesy stuff.

 

The Scorpion - Megadeth.  I bought a Megadeth t-shirt with a scorpion on it.  Good song.

 

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap - AC/DC.  Classic.

 

Pussywillow - Greg Dulli.  That Amber Headlights disc was pretty good.  The…

Five On Friday Shuffle

Strange Feelin' In The Air - Ryan Bingham.  Bingham flirts with the hard rock, wish he'd just go ahead and do it.  It'd be great.

 

Cant Do A Thing (To Stop Me) - Chris Isaak.  Smoothy gettin' it on music.  Almost R&B.

 

Secret Country - Minus The Bear.  Check them out.  Great newish band.

 

Isle of Avalon - Iron Maiden.  I finally got to see IM last year.  Twice in fact.  This is off of their newest album and it kind echos 7th Son.  That can't…
