A perfect example of the live version of a song rendering the studio version obsolete.

#songoftheday: Radiohead – Prove Yourself
I really don’t understand why this album gets so much flack when compared to the rest of Radiohead’s catalogue.
#songoftheday: The Clash – Lover’s Rock
London Calling has got to be one of the most consistently solid double albums ever recorded.
#songoftheday: Cat Stevens – Two Fine People
I’m usually not a big fan of “Greatest Hits” albums. On one hand, they make for an accessible intro to any given band/artist. On the other, they can take a song out of the context of the original album, and really diminish it’s effect.
Cat Stevens’ first greatest hits album gets a pass because it brings something new to the table. Specifically, this great song.
#songoftheday: Motörhead – Ace of Spades
For some people, this songs’s about gambling. But as far as I’m concerned, it’ll always be about pulling off kickflip combos as Wolverine in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3.
#songoftheday: Bush – X-Girlfriend
Sometimes simple and straightforward just works.
#songoftheday: The Beatles – In My Life
A big congratulations to my baby sister who just graduated high school.
#songoftheday: The Clash – Rudie Can’t Fail
Proof that punk rock and reggae have always gone together like peas and carrots.
#songoftheday: Calvin Harris Feat. Florence Welch – Sweet Nothing
For some reason, the line in this song’s always sounded like “sweet muffins” to me.
#songoftheday: Radiohead – Go To Sleep (Little Man Being Erased)
While I still vastly prefer Radiohead’s first 3 albums to the rest of their catalogue, a few of their newer songs (ie: released in the last 12 years) are starting to grow on me.
