both leave you hanging at the end.. I agree that there are MANY similarities between Inception and Shutter Island--even to the extent that I think, love it or hate it, one's opinion of the first should be in-line with the second. However, I gotta ask: how do either "leave you hanging"? I know Incep...

Inception 9/10 I'm not sure how folks that panned Shutter Island could love this movie. The films have the same construction plot-wise, both have great acting, directing, and cinematography, both included a "twist" you can see coming from a mile away, and both leave you hanging at the end... the onl...

Ah shryke, no surprises here. You've been hinting a long while that it was a song overlapping with my list, I kind of figured without trying there were one or two specifically that it could be. As a child of the 80s who has only recently become enamored with 80s music, you gave me a fair bit of educ...

i think the word you are grasping for is AWESOME.

Well, this certainly comes as no surprise as I got a bit of a wink/nudge via PM when I commented on someone else selecting All The Small Things as the best of Blink 182 being somewhat absurd to me... so, naturally I love this song, everything you said about it is dead on Geez, though for me its a to...

Even if you don't like his movies, there is no denying that Zack Snyder knows how to make a killer trailer.

ugh yea, they played this ahead of either twilight or airbender, don't remember which, but it looked retarded.

No love for DM - Stripped?

Well first off, Happy Birthday man! Secondly, this is definitely the biggest surprise for a #1 so far. Extremely unexpected. As with most of your other songs, i really enjoyed it, though I never would have put 2 & 2 together to link it to those movies, though I did love the TWBB scene you are talkin...

So, one of the bands I saw (who were unknown to me and most other folks) apparently has their backup dancers competing on AGT this week, but by the names and descriptions you guys are giving I can't figure out who the heck they would be...

I'm glad you like so many of the same songs as I do, and I do know you prefer Iron & Wine's version of "Such Great Heights" (although I still can't figure out why )

FYI The Nathan introduced me to both this band and song, love it, so kind of thought it was the original.

Yea... Early into Chien joining our little game in an attempt to express himself used "spleen" as a descriptor for melancholy, which apparently in the English language goes back to the days when emotion was though to be tied to bodily functions. For us the term has long since phased out, but apparen...

Your buddy Nathan has a pretty solid taste too. Good to see Wilco be represented by someone (not my favourite song of theirs by a long shot, but still nice). Love that Bon Iver song, really beautiful. And there's some great stuff from the Pixies, Tom Waits, Radiohead, Elliott Smith, etc. So pass on...

As usual, I have to briefly say thanks to Shryke for not only conceiving this idea, but also getting all of us excited about it, keeping us reminded to stay up to date when we are getting behind, and also organizing every little detail of when and how things are posted. Thanks Shryke! Drumroll Pleas...

W - Johnny Cash "Folsom Prison Blues" Like Chien, this #1 is very representative of your personal style, beyond a doubt. I am not a huge fan of the song, its a bit too novelty country to me, as I've mentioned in previous postings of the song, but that seems to be your thing so I can easily understan...
