Fantastic Plastic Machine - King of Pleasure

― no tech! (ex machina), Wednesday, 6 July 2005 22:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh so predictable, but the opening notes of "Eighties" by Killing Joke immediately makes me sneer deliciously and feel positively omnipotent. Like spinach for Popeye.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Wednesday, 6 July 2005 22:43 (twenty-one years ago)

oh no.

Well, if it's possible for one to feel cool while cleaning out the garage, then Marianne Faithfull's "The Blue Millionaire" has to be the one. I don't ordinarily play a song twice, but today just had to press repeat for the keynoards on this one. For a short while there, things were quite good.

Fuck, almost anything on the first two Comsat Angels albums.

War - Low rider

Wish I could say something more obscure, but I'd be lying.

The real test for a song that "makes you feel cool" is whether you can play it loud with the windows rolled down. In traffic. Bet you feel real cool now.

― Hurting (Hurting), Thursday, 7 July 2005 02:57 (twenty-one years ago)

The entire first Cars record. Especially "You're All I've Got Tonight."

"Misunderstood" - Pete Townshend and Ronnie Lane.

― k/l (Ken L), Thursday, 7 July 2005 14:51 (twenty-one years ago)

The Payback is one of my biggest personal anthems, preceded only by "The Boss", also by our beloved, the Reverend Cleophus James!

"Papa Don't Take No Mess". Because I don't. Take no mess.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 7 July 2005 17:08 (twenty-one years ago)

No one should take a mess. NO ONE, DAMNIT!

― Michael Costello (MichaelCostello1), Thursday, 7 July 2005 17:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Papa didn't cuss/
He didn't raise a whole lotta fuss/
But when we did wrong-ah/
Papa beat the hell outta us - UNH!

Damnit, I LOVE that song.

― Big Loud Mountain Ape (Big Loud Mountain Ape), Thursday, 7 July 2005 17:13 (twenty-one years ago)

First thing I thought of was Soho - "Hot Music" which is kinda jazzy. I think I feel cool because I've known it so long and whenever people first hear it they think it's cool and ask what it is.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 7 July 2005 17:15 (twenty-one years ago)

this is such a gay question.

Aren't you guys brothers or something?

The real test for a song that "makes you feel cool" is whether you can play it loud with the windows rolled down. In traffic. Bet you feel real cool now.

I once saw this one guy who was playing "Careless Whisper" loudly in late-night traffic. He did not appear to be crying/breaking up with someone/gay. Is he cool?

― Roz (Roz), Thursday, 7 July 2005 18:27 (twenty-one years ago)

billie jean - MJ.

― danny boy, Thursday, 7 July 2005 19:15 (twenty-one years ago)

Paid In Full, Dwyck, and Candy Girl strangely enough.

― Candicissima (candicissima), Thursday, 7 July 2005 19:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Don't know how "cool" it makes me feel, but I swear to God, I always play pool a little better if 5:15 by The Who comes on the jukebox. Only that song for some reason.

― darin (darin), Thursday, 7 July 2005 19:40 (twenty-one years ago)

i was just walking down capitol ave. rocking "jesus built my hotrod" and i admit i felt pretty tough.

― Baaderonixx le Belge (Fabfunk), Friday, 8 July 2005 13:31 (twenty-one years ago)

cool? what is that anyway?

I always feel good when Gilberto Gil's "Aquele Abraçao"'s opening guitar chords start up, that's a great song.

― edd s hurt (ddduncan), Friday, 8 July 2005 13:37 (twenty-one years ago)

shame on you for not saying "Ice Ice Baby", PappaWheelie.

And here I was floggin myself all last night over the fact that I left off 'Cool Night' by Paul Davis (which also belongs in the bad grammar in songs thread).

Gilberto Gil's "Aquele Abraçao" makes believe in magic. Gil is fucking God to me.

― PappaWheelie (PappaWheelie), Friday, 8 July 2005 14:29 (twenty-one years ago)

I can't, for example, play most hip-hop loud with the windows rolled down without feeling self-conscious, but when I throw on Can's "Vitamin C" I'm like "Yeah, I'm funky, in my white guy sort of way."

― Hurting (Hurting), Friday, 8 July 2005 14:33 (twenty-one years ago)
