Sounds like something straight out of a Jackass movie. Sounds like a skater song if that makes any sense.

Remember Me Lover - Porcupine Tree (would post a video but i need 15 posts).

Cracking tune Jerry! I haven't listened to this band before and I really enjoyed the song. The opening three minutes are a beautiful almost haunting buildup to a louder crescendo of guitars. The lyrics deal with a subject that can often come across as painfully forced and mawkish but the vocals in this have a certain unimposing quality that complements the bands work. I really enjoyed it, especially the way his vocals seem to fall away at the end of each line in the choruses.

Solid song, not what I'd typically listen to, but I enjoyed the unique sound to it and the lyrics. 7/10

Oh... this is no offense to you, but I hate that song. Repetitive chords, boring vocals, and not very astounding lyrics. Again, I'm not trying to be a **** or anything. You seem to be a decent person, it's just I hate that song with a passion. Lol. I give it 3/10



Still on my Captain Beefheart tangent. It's a great song, though. It has a kind of blues/punk feel to it.



Yea... sorry for posting a second song, but I really wanted to share "Dachau Blues." It's one of my favorite tracks from Trout Mask Replica, not to mention it's very sad.

I actually quite enjoyed that tune, very touching sort of surreal lyrics but the piano was just great, it made it feel more authentic in a way... 8/10

I loved it. Such a chill song. Loved how it built as well. 8/10

I always thought it was about an FBI agent freaking out over a murder he'd committed. This makes me want to revisit the album. 10/10.
