Good Gil Scott-Heron -The Bottle

Gil Scott-Heron is a genius! He probably should have taken the message in this song as not just for the bottle, but for the crack pipe as well!

Your Music Is.... Trivia: Gil Scott-Heron's Dad, Giles "Gil" Heron (nicknamed "The Black Arrow") was a Jamaican football player who, in the 1950s, was the first ever black player to play for Glasgow's Celtic Football Club.

Along with Brian Jackson he created this masterpiece! That's some funky flute playing! All tunes need a funky Bass player and a flute over the top! Its essential!

Let's hope Gil can stop snorting the Coke and get back to writing some great tunes...

I suspect we'll see Gil here again at some point as he does have a huge back catalog!

Okay So Solid Crew - 21 seconds

A band that had shitloads of Members....
The Twins, Oxide & Neutrino, Synth & Exodus, Oxide, Neutrino, Synth, Exodus, Megaman, Michael Harvey, MC Romeo, Lisa Maffia, Asher D, Statix, Dan Da Man, Kaish, Face, Swiss, Scat D, Trigger, AC Burell, JD, Mr. Arika, Kowdean, D-Murda, Money, TW7, Mac, Gillard, PDS, Timeless, Tiger S, Thug Angel, Mr. C, Mr. Shabz, Double R, G-Man
and breathe!!!!!!!!!!

Too many cooks do spoil the broth i think! I think half of them are in jail now too! Playin' Gangster doesn't work in the UK as the police will just arrest you!

So to the song..... 21 seconds to go........ i think they gave every member 21 seconds to record a wee bit.... the chorus is a bit shit too.......... but overall i'd say 21 seconds is okay.

Shite Sharleen Spiteri - All The Times I Cried

Youtube Video

This gets an automatic SHITE for not allowing me to embed it! So i'll embed the incredibly bland Texas - Say What You Want so you understand what sort of music Sharleen (sounds like a feckin' pikey!) sings!

This song has one of those talk shite over the music videos.... which actually helps as the tune itself is so BLAND and BORING I'll talk about the video instead!
It has people auditioning for some sort of role in France or something and Sharleen is talking on the phone saying she can't do it anymore.......... presumably its a relationship or something but who gives a fuck?

So some Jarvis Cocker lookalike is speaking french *YAWN* as we go through different auditions until Sharleen gets on and BANG! she loses the coat she was wearing and the background turns all flashy! She seems to have modeled herself on the fucking styling of Kelly Osbourne!
And that's it.... the video ends....... and your left feeling you want your 3 minutes 28 seconds back!

Also of note sharleenspiterimusic has tagged the video "halo say what you want" which are the biggest hits of the Bland Texas to try and get more views!

Okay OK Go - Here It Goes Again

39,084,219 hits! Everybody knows the video by now but is the song any good? It's okay but certainly nothing special... standard run of the mill rock by numbers tune.
The guitar riff is slightly familiar but i can't place it right now.
The singing is okay but the vocalist doesn't stand out to me and the song its self isn't great!
There is NO guitar solo to speak of in this Rock tune and that is just not acceptable in this day and age!
The tune just doesn't go anywhere and ends just like that.
NOT GOOD ENOUGH! They should leave the gym and write some better songs!
Famous only because of their video i think!

Good! Nitin Sawhney - Days of Fire (feat Natty)

Starts of a bit slow but picks up and hits you... i enjoyed the simple guitar riff and the way the "singer" starts to rhyme and the tune picks up with a nice wee beat in the background! This is a good tune and i like it. It deserves recognition!
