Re: Top 100 Songs of the Millennium (2000-2019) - #10-2
Round 2 thoughts Last of the full round comments, and it was a decent one! Chien, Benjamin Biolay - Was much better than a lot of your French language songs, mostly because there was a little more drama and intensity to the music. Vocals were nice alongside this so enjoyed it quite a bit. Geezer, A...

Round 3 thoughts Chien, Miossec - Wasn't particularly interested in the vocals, though the music picked up by the end to keep me interested. Geezer, The Gaslight Anthem - Much prefer the Blue Jeans song, this was very Springsteen-sequel and a little plodding if I'm honest. JohnErle, Sparks - Vaguel...

Round 4 thoughts Chien, The National - Fantastic opener to an album which I recall feeling was much more subdued than Alligator on release, but it works and this song sets the album off well. Considered this for my own list. Geezer, Off With Their Heads - The video is fun enough, but listened to it...

Round 5 thoughts Another very enjoyable round with two crossovers no less. Chien, Amy Winehouse - While I would never purchase a record of hers, her talent was without doubt and never had an issue with listening to her music. This is probably my favourite of hers too, has a cool retro vibe to it, w...

Round 6 thoughts Chien, Woodkid - It was nice enough, for some reason I can imagine Florence and the Machine doing something like this, but it never really grabbed me like I hoped. Geezer, Green Day - I always feel like this era of Green Day is forgotten, it kind of fell in between their earlier po...

Round 7 thoughts Another really enjoyable round. Chien, Daft Punk - Probably my favourite song from Daft Punk, has a great rhythm to it, I remember thinking these guys were the future of dance music when this came out, and while that isn't totally the case, they have influenced a lot of the music w...

Round 8 thoughts For the most part really enjoyed this round. Chien, Sufjan Stevens - Really lovely song that complemented the film beautifully. I could listen to Sufjan all day, he has such a way with lyrics and his vocals are so comforting. Geezer, Lucero - Lucero have been one of the highlights ...

Round 9 thoughts Chien, Benjamin Biolay - Even discounting the French language and lyrics, it just sounds like a stereotypical French song, which I think I have ascertained by now, is not for me. Geezer, Jimmy Eat World - It seems the only Jimmy Eat World songs you like are the softer ones, and whi...

Round 10 thoughts Chien, The White Stripes - When it was first released, I liked the song but felt it lacked the rawness of their earlier work. I still enjoy it quite a lot, it has a great video and the riff is undeniably catchy. And btw, although it's being picky, but Jack never played bass on the...

Round 11 thoughts Chien, Anthony and the Johnsons - I think it was yourself who posted a song from Anthony in the past, but this served as a reminder that I must listen to this album, it was sublime. Vocally, musically, a real joy from start to finish, and definitely had a hint of Lou Reed too, whi...

Round 12 thoughts Not a great round for me, unfortunately. Glad someone picked Cloud Nothings to keep things awesome... Chien, Benjamin Biolay - I apologise in advance, but while I appreciate the effort you have made in translating the lyrics, unfortunately it sounds like Europop, and dare I say I ...

Round 13 thoughts Chien, Gary Jules and Michael Andrews - I don't know, I kind of like the Tears For Fears song because it's a little cheesy and has that new wave sound to it which adds a little eerieness to it. This just felt like they took the song and said, 'we're gonna take this song and tell e...

Round 14 thoughts Chien, David Byrne - I must admit, beyond his collaboration with St. Vincent, I haven't really listened to much of David Byrne's relatively recent offerings. Really enjoyed this one. Don't know if anyone caught him in the John Mulaney sketch tv movie last year, but he was right up...

Round 15 thoughts Chien, Alex Beaupain - Sometimes simplicity does work, I have certainly got my own dose of that on my list. Unfortunately, despite the addition of the lyrics, the emotion in the vocals just wasn't there to really draw me in. Geezer, Against Me! - Man, I was certain that was Spring...
