Mark from Albany Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Song of the Year: Last year's winner: “Holiday,” Green Day. 1. “World Wide Suicide,” Pearl Jam. I still can't make out what Eddie's saying. But I think I hear him say “President.” I know he doesn't like the president. So I like the song. 2. “I'm so sick,” Flyleaf 3. “Out Here All Night,” Damone 4. “Strict Machine,” Goldfrapp 5. “Land of Confusion," Disturbed Album of the Year: Last year's winner: “American Idiot,” Green Day. 1. “Aerial,” Kate Bush. Why did she make us wait 10 years between albums? 2. “We Don't Need to Whisper,” Angels and Airwaves 3. “We Shall Overcome,” Bruce Springsteen 4. “Taking the Long Way,” Dixie Chicks 5. "Wintersong," Sara Machlachlan Worst Song of the Year: Last year's loser: “Smile!” Brian Wilson, entire album. 1. “Hate Me,” Blue October. Hit the “Scan” button. NOW! 2. Paris Hilton. Do I even have to explain this one? 3. “You're Beautiful,” James Blunt/ “Only Cab on the Road,” Train – Different men, same song 4. “SOS,” Rihanna/ “Promiscuous,” Nelly Furtado/ “Hips Don't Lie.” Shakira. Different boobs, same song. 5. "Fergylicious," Fergy. I thought she was supposed to be the talented one. Those are my picks. And yours are.......?

Pete Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Smile? That is the most anticipated album of all time. Are you familiar with the storyline of that album? There was competition between the Beatles and the Beach Boys. Rubber Soul brought out Pet Sounds, Smile was being recorded and Sargeant Peppers was released, was brilliant and helped cause Brian Wilson a complete mental breakdown. He ended up burning down the studio and all recordings of Smile and recorded the album last year from memory. Pet Sounds=one of the greatest records of all time!

Mark from Albany Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 Brian Wilson? Yeah, I'm more than old enough to remember the first go-round. And I rushed to the store the first day it was available. Couple of songs into it, I'm thinking: "Geez, this is losing listenability fast." I put it aside for a few weeks, thinking maybe I anticipated too much. Came back a couple times more, still bad. Maybe it would have been different if I'd seen it performed live. I'm counting the remake by Disturbed as eligible because they did such a good job of interpreting the song in their own style. No Doubt did the same with "It's my life" a couple of years ago. Oh, and sorry if I missed the release date on Goldfrapp. It's been all over the airwaves and used in just about every TV commercial these days cuz it's such a good groove. I thought it was more recent. If you want I can nominate a substitute. C'mon, lemme have it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark from Albany Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 Okay, I got it... We'll swap out "Land of Confusion" and "Strict Machine" for "You're Gonna Fall Behind Me," by the Donnas and either of the two Gnarls Barkley songs. 'zat work?

You're reasoning for pearl jam is very poor, and i can't make out half of vedder's mumblings. Blue October's Hate me is a very underrated song IMO. FWIW I love Flyleaf, but i doubt that they are going to be up for top song awards, just because not many of critics respect screamer bands.

/dev/null Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Maybe from late 80's, early 90's when Genesis first did it Disturbed's cover of Land of Confusion is a great song and probably would have gotten my vote for song of 2006, except it's waaaaaaaay overplayed its almost as overplayed as Danny California (Chili Peppers) which I heard once on 4 local radio stations at the same time. Radio Station A plays Danny California (which I was sick of hearing) Radio Station B is on commercial Radio Station C is playing Danny California Radio Station D is playing another song. After that song they play Danny California Back to Radio Station Bs commercials, which finish and then they play Danny California Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olivier in france Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Ain't No other Man - Christina Aguilera that's a pretty cool song But let's wait till the NFL playoffs are done... if the Saints are playing in the SB "The Saints are coming" by Greenday and U2 will have all the awards! Of course the Boss's album is the album of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
