^ Nice. I share his birthday, along with Ray Charles, which means I'm secretly a black, blind, heroin addict genius musician.

This band, they suck (hit Esc at the sign in thingy)...

Teardrop - Hayley Williams

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GS79ASWxRjk

Recommended to me by a friend, but I don't see the need for it. It's a cover of Massive Attack (1998) featuring Elizabeth Frazier on vocals (from Cocteau Twins, or Two Cock Twins as one friend of mine is fond of saying.) AKA The Theme from House MD.

So many unnecessary covers. Did we need Counting Crows covering of Joni Mitchell's Big Yellow Taxi?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvtJPs8 … rt_radio=1

Maybe the best thing Counting Crows did. Did we also need Amy Grant's?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiJWwWP1g7w

Less so. Did we need this one by Allday and The Veronicas?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxoeEKGhRtw

Probably not, but nice bass sounds. This one?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fndjL3lSkrg

I kind of like that one by Imy2.

Harry Styles?

I think I'll draw the line right there.

Joni...

Mezzanine by Massive Attack is literally the only album in this world that my wife and I 100% agree on.

They were on it in their time, and timeless as a result. The whole downtempo thing from the mid nineties was epic. Tosca, Groove Armada, Air, Zero 7, Tosca's spinoffs Kruder & Dorffmeister and Peace Orchestra, Yoshinora Sunuhara (forever in your gratitude for that one, @sloth-slob san) some of Jam & Spoon, The Solid Doctor, Simon Tellier, Thievery Corporation, many more (Tricky, Everything But The Girl, Susan Vega with that one remix of Tom's Diner by DNA), and of course,

Mad Professor with the Massive Attack reggae dub remix No Protection...

So also Gorillaz and their dub spinoff, Laika Come Home by Spacemonkeyz...

Tom's Diner (DNA remix)

Did I mention Portishead? Only You, the ultimate breakdown with a masterpiece video by Chris Cunningham, 1998.

Massive Attack - Safe From Harm

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKtTmZnVhhI

Borrowing the bass groove and more from Billy Cobham, Stratus, 1973. Fusion, baby!

Enigma, I forgot that a-hole.

Döbbie03 · Today 06:23:43

I have listened to Mezzanine since the beginning of time, when I discovered that Angel was sung by a man, my mind was literally blown.

This was last year.

The Two Cock Twins - Treasure (1984)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF8fnsy … RjcswUekSu

See if your wife likes that album. "Dream pop".

The drums are John Bonham slowed way down and through many effects.

Döbbie03 · Today 06:31:49

I'll add it to my playlist for the car. See what she says.

hhh · Today 06:32:45

It's decent driving music, better at night.
