Okay I'm drunk so I'm gonna rate all those songs based on a Party Hardy (PH) 1-10 system, where a 10 equals John Belushi levels of party animal savagery, with a 1 being a nursing home bingo event.

* This has nothing to do with a song's quality, just it's ability to make me want to go legs up on a keg.

*Lurgee by Radiohead

I tried dancing to this, but my leg fell asleep. 1/10

*Clocks by Coldplay

I know this might sound weird, but I have seriously never listened to Coldplay, at least not to my knowledge. No real reason why, I just have never cared enough to do so. Not a bad song, sort of like a combination of the most tepid but still good parts of U2 and Radiohead or something, but I ain't gettin' down to this on a dance floor. 2/10

*Bionic by Placebo

I got my beer bong ready... **** this I'm going for some Ke$ha. 1/10

*Porcelain by Moby

So... like... do you listen to anything but adult contemporary for twenty-somethings? 1/10

*You Don't Have to Tell Me Now by Grant Hart

I'm not even a minute into this and I'm already awarding it a PH level of .5/10

*Untitled by Interpol

Okay, so I was right that one time I listened to Interpol. 1/10

*Vapour Trail by Ride

Oh hey! A band I know and kinda like. 2/10

*Pieces by Dinosaur Jr

You have a chance to post a band with some excitement and this sleepery is what you come up with? Not a bad song at all, but... 2/10

*Shining Light by Ash

This reminds me of the indie rock version of Lifehouse. If you don't know what that is then just know that it isn't a compliment. 1/10

*If You're Thinking Of Me by Dodgy

Man I got **** to do. 1/10

*Disorder by Joy Division

I kind of hate Joy Division, but this is actually the most exciting song yet, even if I don't particularly like it, so... 3/10


If you don't care about what people think, then listen to what you want to listen to, cause **** all that noise, but if you're worried that people think your music is boring, then... you have legitimate cause for concern.
