I've first seen the video years and years ago and I just think its Genuis, song is great although was fairly sure Rikand would have heard it a couple of times.

I'll take 6th although I wanted 5 th :pac::pac:

I'm listening to a lot of difficult music at the moment, no lyrics, not harmonic (weird stuff). I've been told it's beautiful and to stick with it cause once it clicks.

Now all these songs tonight sound a bit childish, I fear I may have ruined songs.

A quick listen to 'strong bad - the sytem is down' will have you as right as rain.

6th Place :: Daft Bodies - Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger

lol, great video. I've watched this 4 times now and I have yet to write any description for it. Think I've more or less just sat here open mouthed at how brilliant this is. If I hadn't heard the song 400 million times before this would have scored better. it's such a great song, such great appeal to my preferred music choice and the video strongly appeals to my rampant heterosexuality. Well played!

5th Place :: Us3 - cantaloop (flip fantasia)

Submitting anything with hiphop, rap, R&B always carries a certain amount of risk with me. Well risk rewarded. Anymore than this though would have been a little too much. It was just enough. Overall, the jazz, that trumpet! The pianos and general sort of club house feel to it, its just such a tune! You will not be able to stop bopping all the way through this. I wasn't.

Great original by The Knife, great cover by Jose Gonzalez, just a great fúcking song that I love.

The Knife playing it live is...interesting, and the way they introduce the Twin Peaks theme is genius.

Thats class!

Pretzill · 16-07-2019 11:32pm

Great choice Ecto!

Ectoplasm · 16-07-2019 11:33pm

4th Place :: Royksopp - What else is There ( Trentemoller Remix)

This is top 5 and is yet massively situational for me. Like, right now, I'm at home and I'm just enjoyin it, Bopping my head, grinding my hips as I walk around the place, when the tech breaks down for each vocal bit, sometimes im a little bit eh. But if I was at a rave and this came on and I was a couple of beers deep, then I would go into full on gurn mode and forking love it. A few mates of mine absolutely love Trentemoller, but I was never that into his stuff before, but this is really good and I really enjoyed myself!

3rd Place :: Fountains of Wayne - Stacey's Mom

"[myfriend]'s Dad has got it going on, [myfriend]'s dad has got it going on" - One time as a tribute to how cool my best friends dad is, I took the lyrics to staceys mom and applied them to his dad and then sang them one night in a packed pub. Everyone broke themselves up laughing at it. I have never sang it since (except to myself lol). I wrote the lyrics as a one time dealer performance and some people were like, "whats wrong with this guy" but everyone else was in a state. To this day, I dont know if it the was the lyrics, how bad my singing was or really just that I dared to do it in the first place and how was I not killed and...... I forget where I'm going with this but.... Stacey's Mom is a great great song with a great great great tremendous video..... And will always hold a special place in my heart

Actually, [myfriend] is getting married next year. Maybe I'll whip it out one more time for that lol

Necro · 16-07-2019 11:57pm

Woo, I'll take that

2nd Place :: Dan La Sac & Scroobius Pip - Thou Shalt Always Kill

I love the Scroob! Beat that my heart skipped is good but Letter from God..... To Man is my favourite offering from him which samples Planet Telex and is amazing. He really makes you think with the thought provoking lyrics and Dan produces great music for all the compositions. I wont take Lord Scroobs name in vain by offering my thoughts on the piece, I'll let you judge it for yourself. Its what he would want

that was great, had to wait until it was over before reading the commentary, unlike every other song in walrus so far, it dragged me in.
