Barry Ryan - Eloise: 8
When I saw that the Randomizer made this song appear I wondered for a short moment whether it came from my list. This was a song I had a short obsession with some 11 to 12 years ago. An obsession almost completely based around the final minute or so when Barry Ryan goes ape-shit and screams his longs out. Before that it is fun, sweeping baroque rocker, but also very schmaltzy and even when I loved this song the most I thought it was a mistake to slow down in the middle. After that short period of infatuation I actually didn't pay much attention to it anymore and more or less forgot about it. So it was not from my list and neither should it be on there, but it was fun to reconnect. It is very cheesy much of the time, but in a good way. Only the slow part is still a bummer: a fast four minute storm of a song with Ryan going bananas at the end might have been a mainstay on my list.

It was #1 in The Netherlands actually. It is also a mainstay in the Top 2000, a very big, yearly national radio event were audiences vote for their all-time favorite songs. It used the rank in the top 100 in the early years, were I think I heard it first.

While preparing for my review of Black Sabbath's Master of Reality I'm a little disappointed that it doesn't sound more like this. The interplay between band members is far more palpable and raw. Without losing any thunder. Great song.

766. Barry Ryan - Eloise: 7.25
Dig The Damned's version:
767. Black Sabbath – Wicked World - 9.5 (now #374 on my AT list) - This was the first song on side 2 of the North American version of Sabbath's debut. Sorry to bring up my garage band again, but in an early incarnation this was one of our favorites to play. We spent hours practicing it - I was/am a big Geezer Butler fan and this was one I could keep up with. Love how unhinged the guitar solo sounds. "A politician's job they say is very high; for he has to choose who's gotta go and die..." Stick it to him, Ozzy!

The type of song for which I suspect the lyrics are important. Luckily, the music is very energetic on its own.

Loved this - gonna chart it at #8290
from wikipedia:
Their music, hard to classify, has been described as "what you might expect if you managed to merge Pere Ubu and Pixies with a touch of Kraftwerk".
!!!
Any album suggestions, Henrik?

This song is from their third album, but the second album, ”Omslag: Martin Kann” is my favourite overall. I’d say the first three albums are all Swedish indie classics.
Everyone you meet fights a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always.

Joe Cocker has a great voice, but he frequently uses it to sing rather dull songs, of which this is an example for me.

Marble Sounds - The Silent Song: 7
Playing this right after the album Closer by Joy Division has ended is almost like the sound of Decades, the final track, goes on, but the sunlight finally breaks in. Interesting experience, complete not intended by anyone involved, but it kind of made me aware of the tranquil appeal of The Silent Song.

It's good, but so close to the original by Gainsbourg and Bardot that I feel like there isn't any point to listening to it.
