6/10 - Iā€™ve never been much of a Motorhead fan, but I do enjoy hearing new, interesting versions of old songs and I appreciate their effort. šŸ™‚

Speaking of which, here is a cover of Nightwishā€™s ā€œWishmasterā€ as done by the a capella metal band Van Canto. Yes, I said ā€œa capella metalā€. šŸ™‚

Van Canto - Wishmaster

Iā€™m no metal expert but seeing as Iā€™m currently writing a fantasy fic, I definitely needed a song like this. Thank you sir! XD

Anyways, I actually wanted to post another version of this song but my friend says this one is the best: Riders in the Sky - Outlaws

I prefer the Spiderbait version though. Then again, thatā€™s probably cuz it seems to be the only version I wanna hear when I wanna imagine myself doing this:

ā€œLetā€™s ride! turns into his variation of a certain hellfire bounty hunter >B)ā€

P.S.

I almost forgot. Iā€™m kinda running out of English songs here guys (at least ones that are suitable to this forum ><). So, uh, can I have the final all clear if we can include foreign songs in this game too? ><;;
 
Nice mix of cheerful tune and sad lyrics - very polished sixties sound. Also, this narrator is quite a sympathetic character, which is a plus in this kind of song; unlike the petrol-heads of ā€œTell Laura I Love Her,ā€ ā€œDead Manā€™s Curveā€ and ā€œLeader of the Pack,ā€ the other three songs that sprang to mind when I listened to this.

The song itself: 6/10. (I would have given it a seven, but found the rhyming a bit too predictable: car/far, kiss/miss, light/night and so on.)

Hereā€™s my song to share:

Beautifulā€¦ just beautifulā€¦ ;w; (Oh and while Iā€™m not American, I say God bless all those brave men and women out there who pledged themselves to protect their country. šŸ‘)

Alas since, since I still have no indication if I can put up foreign songs, I think Iā€™ll just stick to putting up some movie songs. :o

Say - John Mayer (from the movie, The Bucket List)

10/10

Iā€™m not a big John Mayer song but I LOVE this song!

Now for one of my all time favorites!

Meh, Iā€™m not really a fan of Bob, soā€¦ 6.5/10

My choice: No Leaf Clover - Symphony and Metallica
 
Very nice blues choice, 9.0 and thanks, I now have another blues performer to listen to šŸ˜ƒ

System of a down - Lost in Hollywood

(please note there is some swearing though nothing to offensive) šŸ™‚

The song itself gets a 7/10 for good beat but incomprehensible lyrics.

However, Iā€™m afraid it shall suffer a -5 penalty for the fact that you just randomly pulled it out of the internet. šŸ˜› (Oh and a -2 for your grammar.)

Iā€™ll rate this because Lost Wanderer didnā€™t post anything new.

7.5/10

I like that this song has a lot of raw energy in it, you can really see how Nirvana really ushered in, for better or for worse, the modern rock sound. Granted, I donā€™t find it as good as Led Zep, or even U2 for that matter (ok, maybe tied with U2).

For some strange reason, Iā€™ve got this ancient Hank Williams tune stuck in my head: Hank Williams - Iā€™m So Lonesome I Could Cry (1949)

For a slightly more modern performance, hereā€™s Elvisā€™s cover: Elvis Presley - Iā€™m So Lonesome I Could Cry (1973)

Yeah I know. My bad. I really just ran out of English songs here. Iā€™m still waiting for the proper go-ahead if I can post songs in another language. >_<ll

Anyways, Iā€™ll rate the Elvis song as aboutā€¦ oh my Lord 9.5/10. So good yet so sad! TwT

Whatā€™s sadder still though is this next song is one of those foreign songs Iā€™ve been talking about. Since I really havenā€™t getting any response to my inquiries, I might as well test the waters. >_<;; (Donā€™t be too hard on me or the song please. ;w; )

Hishoku no Sora by Mami Kawada

This song is better known though as the first opening of Shakugan no Shana.

I know Iā€™m going to sound like a total geek and absolute fan boy but I really love songs that make me imagine the intros for my own stories should they ever become awesome enough to have a cool anime adaptation. w Ooooh honest to Godā€¦ itā€™s my lifetime dream.

As far as this song goesā€¦ ahhā€¦ I can already see it! >w< A brief glimpse of my characters in the first few seconds before the title fading in. After which some scenes of my characters in cool, daily-life poses quickly followed by some dramatic ones that give foresight to important plot points. Finally, all the way to the end, you get a nice, big, flashy sequence of explosive fights, a look at their special powers, rivals, and antagonists, before a final scene of them staring at the sunset.

Okay, Iā€™m gonna end here now before my geekiness flows all over this place. (Sorry, I just couldnā€™t help myself right now. >w<;; )
