Decided to start a new topic here, because sometimes it's not just about the best albums, but the best songs. And i decided to kick it off with this song:
Gotta confess that's the first time I've ever seen a Roman chariot powered by Harleys instead of horses. Very much dig the 80's-era hippity-hop vibe no doubt nurtured by the presence of one of the godfathers of hip-hop, Kool Moe Dee. Towards the end, whoever was singing through the credits sounded so much like Michael Jackson that I half expected his name in the credits. Very trippy video!Decided to start a new topic here, because sometimes it's not just about the best albums, but the best songs. And i decided to kick it off with this song:
Tbh, i wasn't sure starting this thread was a good idea as having it all in one place (the best album thread) has some advantages. There are songs i like that doesn't have an album tho or where i don't like the rest of the album all that much, or just so-so.Gotta confess that's the first time I've ever seen a Roman chariot powered by Harleys instead of horses.

In the Best Album thread, you shared a video of Steve Martin's banjo wizardry during a Letterman appearance with Earl Scruggs, a man who will forever be one of America's most beloved bluegrass artists. It's also noteworthy that Steve Martin was inducted into the American Banjo Museum Hall of Fame last year. Here's another tune by Steve with his bluegrass group the Steep Canyon Rangers performing on Letterman. Those who dig gospel, bluegrass and a cappella harmonies might find this hymn most heavenly:
The National used to make me sob, especially after a bottle of bourbon! High Violet is a work of art.5 hours ago, Hammerblow said:
The National as a band are a work of art so so very underrated it's criminal.
I agree. The US/Canada have produced The National, Arcade Fire, The White Stripes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, British alternative has dried up, unfortunately.The National as a band are a work of art so so very underrated it's criminal.
