I'm not sure about these, so maybe someone can confirm: In the 1,001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die's list, these three songs: Altern 8 - Infiltrate 202 Ray Charles - I've Got a Woman Paul McCartney - Waterfalls are not in the book, but AM says they are; and James - Laid it's in the book, but AM...

I've been wondering about this particular case, because the pronoun is singular instead of plural, but actually when I read it, I feel like the doubt is absurd, after all if translated to my language "The Time" or "The Tallest Man on Earth" would be singular as well. However, th...

Hey, Blanco, you and I both crossed the 500 barrier this week to become "unquestionable presences"! Seems like Bruce was good for something after all! :happy-partydance: True! And if we try to see the glass half full, if he does not come back, everything will be fine. And if he comes back...

Excellent post, Cesar, and an excellent argument for Smells Like Teen Spirit as the greatest song of all time (although I don't agree, and my surprising choice is even more recent). Your English expression has become so much more powerful since you first began writing here and I applaud you. Thank ...

Thanks!

I do not understand much about this subject, and I do not know if it has to do with the topic, but the search results are not working properly, at least for me.

Blanco, I like a lot your list, I'm very interested in your project. I got many lists but mainly of music coming from Spain (that probably will ruin your overall because of non-comparable weights). Anyway maybe you could find interesting a list that Rock de Lux published in 1998 for their #150 issu...

Haha, I had already written and I felt bad deleting it. See my response as a complement to the previous one. Ha.

Blanco

I'm serious about my Gal Costa question above. Ok Brad, I'm very sorry for taking so long to respond. I've been very busy lately. I've heard the two songs closely, and although I do not know much Portuguese, (luckily it resembles Spanish), I realized that, yeah, they are not the same song. It turns...

Hey Blanco - I have a somewhat obscure question you may be able to answer (or any other Brazilian music aficianados out there)... I've recently been enjoying the fabulous "Fa-tal: Gal a todo vapor" album by Gal Costa quite a bit. I noticed it made your top 10 list for 1971 (and sonofsamia...

Blanco

It is to Dick Rosemont and to me. Good for you. :greetings-waveyellow: Do you know the artists and labels and numbers of any of the cylinders? No, but maybe you should ask the collector Alfonso Villaseñor, I think he could tell. Or try to contact the Fonoteca of the INAH ( http://www.inah.gob.mx/fo...

Bruce wrote:It is to Dick Rosemont and to me.

Good for you.

Ok, after some quick research, I found that there are versions of the song recorded on phonograph cylinders that were sold in the first years of the last century. So what was the first recording? It depends on your definition of "recording". But defining exactly what was the first recordi...

How about the original record version? I do not know if I would call it the original record version, Bruce. I think it's very, very possible that older recorded versions have existed, but did not reached our days, or at least have not reached this U.S. company called Youtube. It's the first time a ...

Cool list, Blanco! :music-listening: Thanks, man! Nice list Blanco, but where's "La Bamba"? It's arguably the most well known song of the Spanish language by non-speakers. Well, here in Mexico it is acclaimed, but not too much. By the way, here it is more common to hear the Los Lobos's ve...

Still spelling it incorrectly even with Henrik now having it correct on the site?

Ok, this list is very special for me because it is derived from the project I've been working the last few months. It would be great if someone wants to comment or ask anything.

Bruce wrote:Another problem is that the top acts on the albums list are predominantly made up of white guitar oriented acts while the songs list is much more diversified.

Shame on you, white guitars.

I was (a little) inspired by Blanco and Rob commenting on Smells Like Teen Spirit. I've listened to the song maybe three times, without really knowing that it was "The Great SLTS". I ended up at a website that is probably familiar to many members here (songfacts.com). Either way, the foll...

Well, at least Lissie had a long run, but Blanco has made the praise-curse come true by removing her. Maybe removing every Spanish language song is good retribution ;) Oh my!

I share Jirin's opinion that great art is more likely to be polarizing than broadly popular, and therefore, if the Pazz & Jop poll is identifying principally what is most popular in a given year, rather than what is, in the critics opinions, the best, why would we give extra credence to that co...
