5 - CCR (any song that includes the word "chooglin" in the lyrics is as brunchy as they come )
4 - Led Zeppelin (that bass drum)
3 - Mountain (I'd almost forgotten this thigh slapper)
2 - Unit Four Plus Two (just as well the song is better than their name)
1 - Beastie Boys (not usually what I go for but I loved this)

Billy - Loverboy (still just as vomit inducing as it was years ago)

Flawless:

Flawless is an adjective that means "without any imperfections," like your flawless vocal performance — not one mistake. In flawless you can see the word flaw, which means "a fault." So something that is flawless is free of faults, perfect.

Submit a song with a flawless performance. Vocals, guitar, triangle, whatever Eg:

John Hedigan's performance in this clip is flawless.

Please provide an explanation and good luck

"Lazy billy" ??? Give it a spell. More like: "lazy nom"

It's not even that good. Teen rebellion. Yeah, great. Get over it.

I reckon people just cling onto a memory of being good and don't even listen to it with their ears open.
Are you drunk? If you think it's about teen rebellion then you've never listened to it with your ears open.

My only consolation is that I didn't win the Billy. This is what I get for nomming with integrity :(

My botes:

5: Charlotte Gainsbourg - "Master's Hands" | enjoyed the rhythmic beat accompanied by her lovely voice CakeEater
4: The Appleseed Cast - "Mile Marker" | loved the slow build to the epic outro Ulahoopski
3: Loverboy - "Working For The Weekend" | energetic 80s rock-pop, love it Noobz0r
2: Os Tincoas - "Deixa a gira girar" | beautiful harmonies JoshWoodenSpoon
1: The Brian Jonestown Massacre - "Nevertheless" | not my favourite voice but I loved the guitar and percussion William Wonka

BM: Rage Against The Machine - "Killing In The Name" | now that's a streetwalker if I ever saw one! Agent93

This is a completely different argument.
Yep. Good observation.

You are completely underselling the cultural impact of the song.
Cultural impact?!?

1000 sweaty bros in a Big Day Out moshpit screaming "F**K YOU I WON'T DO WHATCHA TELL ME!!"

:rolleyes::thumbsu:


Let it go, man.
