Song versus song

[erocmann]

That's a tough one, but I'd have to say the slower version. It sounded strange to me the first time I heard it, but now it seems that it was written to be slower and the original version seems like a punk cover.

I noticed that Twiddly Dee has been used a number of times in this game, so here's one more:

Best song for a square dance: Twiddly Dee or Brand New Shine?

I would have to go with Twiddly Dee of course!! Its such an upbeat song, everytime I hear it I want to get up and do a hoe-down!

Favorite song with a number in the name of it...
P-9
We 3
99%
364

[zany]

well back in the day i would have said we3 but now i think i'm a little sick of it or listened to it too much back then, and 99% i've always liked and is growing back on me more and more lately. so i say 99%

next Q: favorite song with the word UP in it:
Crazy Mixed Up World
Down On Up To Me
Hopes Up
Keep it Up
Stand Up and Be Strong
Straight Up

(p.s. is straight up on an album? found it in songs a-z but didn't see which album it's from - i don't think i know it - just curious! thanks)

[blueharvest]

can't say I'm a huge fan of any of these songs but I'll go with Keep it Up since it's abit more up tempo.
As for Straight Up, a live version was included on the bonus EP that came with Candy From a Stranger. It was recorded at an acoustic show in Toronto. There may also have been a demo of it from the GDU period but don't quote me on that.
Next one:
Best Medicine/Drug related title song:

Painkiller
Summer of Drugs
Bitter Pill
Cocaine Blues

Tough choice, but I love Soul Asylum's version of Summer of Drugs. They just rock on it. Everytime I see it it's just so awesome.

Favorite "new" song

Brand new shine
new world
new feelings
new york blackout

[sayeeda]

Haven't heard Brand New Shine or New Feelings (at least I don't think) so from the other two, I'll chose New York Blackout.

I'm a louse at asking these type of questions, so here goes.

Best "color" song:

Black and Blue or Black Gold?

I probably could have listed more (like Ramblin' Rose, Blood into Wine, New York Blackout, Cocaine Blues) but they would have been a stretch.

black star . . .. GAME OVER

well actually

Best soundtrack song (and i know I'll miss some here, so feel free to add others)

the break
misery
can't even tell
schools out
we 3
miss this
i will still be laughing
losin' it

[sayeeda]

Doh! How'd I miss Black Star?!? Thanks for pointing that out.

[blueharvest]

Nice one Phil!
gotta be Can't Even Tell. It's one of the best songs to come out of the Columbia years I think. The Break may be just about the worst.
anyway, here's the next one!

Best song whose title could easily be misunderstood as being of a sexual nature but is not necessarily so:

Cocktails
Goin' Down
Put the Bone In
The Snake
Take it to the Root

J

[blueharvest]

Oh! and was Misery a soundtrack song because of its coincidental inclusion in the Tommy Lee/Pamela video?
