RE: A THEMED IDEA????


Devo - Satisfaction






Dedication

Rolling Stones, 1965
Who'd have thought that five boiler-suited geeks with flowerpots on their heads could tackle such a monolithic '60s hit and triumph? Somehow these Darwin-opposing robo-punkers twisted Mick Jagger's disaffection for modern consumerism into their own future-retro logic, and the whole Rolling Stones rebel ruckus into an irresistibly funky techno-pop masterpiece

SG - Are you writing these reviews?  (So detailed!)

Mariah Carey - I'll Be There ~requested~


I personally liked when New Kids On The Block sang this song in concert.


But alas they didn't record it.

(I can't...) I don't dislike The Wallflowers, but come on!  Unless you're gonna do something really different with it, why bother?


P.S. - I saw The Wallflowers open for The WHO once.

Songs from an artist that start w/ the same letter as in your name.  First or Last. 


For example I can pick anyone in the letter "D" or Letter "O" for my last name.....??  Sound good??
