Just Plain Kick-ass

Unread post by aleceiffel » Wed Mar 30, 2005 1:57 pm

okay, i was thinking about songs that really affect you on a visceral level.
list your top ten most awesome songs. no, i don't mean your favourite songs, or the songs that you think are the best ten ever recorded. by awesome i mean songs during which you pump your fist in the air and go "raa raaaa RAAAA!" and don't stop until the song's over. and when it's over, you need to light a fag. er, i mean... um, cigarette.

mine

1. the last 8 minutes of Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick (let me help you to
pick up your DEAD!)
2. Pixies - Broken Face (i got a broken face. uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, ooh!)
3. Queen - Princes of the Universe (and here we belong - FIGHTING FOR SURVIVAL!)
4. Pearl Jam - Porch (well NEVER AGAI-AIN-AIN! YEAH-EAH-EAH! YEAH-EAH-EAH!)
5. System of a Down - Mr. Jack (put your hands up get out of the car!
FUCK YOU PIG! FUCK YOU PIG!)
6. Dave Matthews Band - Halloween (we will leave it all behind! oh but in the NIGHTMARES i'll fill them in!)
7. Frank Zappa - Broken Hearts are for Assholes (i said you. are. an asshole! a what? an ASSHOLE!)
8. The Tea Party - Raven Skies (AND I NEED HER NOWWW!)
9. Red Hot Chilis - Equality (wake up motherfucker and smell the slime!)
10. Led Zeppelin - The Immigrant Song (AHHHHHHAHHHHAH!)

they're all pissed off songs.
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

i had trouble limiting it to only 1 pixies song on the list. i could easily have added several others. especially Rock Music. maybe it's number 11.

you catch them on their reunion tour?
