William's Song a Day Blog - est. September 2007

From: This Time Long Ago ; Year: 2001 (1967); Genre: Pop/Rock Learned of this song's existence the other day, which with me being a pretty big Guess Who fan is a fairly interesting, but since it was a single never made it to a proper album and they were still known a "The Guess Who?" at the time it's not surprising. Anyway, this one is a little lighter and poppier than wot most would think of coming from the band, but it's still a neat piece of history from the band. Hear Flying on the Ground is Wrong on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Midnight Oil - Warakurna My song pick two years ago today: The Outfield - Your Love My song pick three years ago today: Jefferson Starship - Jane My song pick four years ago today: Deep Purple - My Woman From Tokyo My song pick five years ago today: The Allman Brothers Band - Ramblin' Man My song pick six years ago today: Van der Graaf Generator - Pioneers Over c.

From: Goodbye Yellow Brick Road ; Year: 1973; Genre: Rock/Glam Rock Drew a blank again today and decided to pick the last song playing in my mind. I've actually always loved Bennie and the Jets ever since I can remember. There's just something about this song that grabs the attention, probably the strangeness of its composition and arrangement; definitely a classic track. Hear Bennie and the Jets on YouTube.

From: Déjà Vu ; Year: 1970; Genre: Folk Rock/Country Rock Heard a lot of CSN&Y's music yesterday; I thought this rather soulful and beautiful song off of their first album with Neil Young on board would fit perfect for today.

From: Phantasmagoria ; Year: 1972; Genre: Progressive Rock When sitting down to make my pick I couldn't help but think of Curved Air for some weird reason. To my knowledge I have yet to pick one off of their splendid third album: Phantasmagoria , so, that seems like a good place to pick from. This is a very interesting track both musically and lyrically and lives up to its title. Hear Phantasmagoria on YouTube.

From: John Fogerty ; Year: 1975; Genre: Rock 'n Roll After watching a concert yesterday I've had John Fogerty's music on the brain, so I'm picking one of his songs. Still, his '75 self-titled album remains one of my favourites, and this was one of the more popular tracks on the record. Hear Rockin' All Over the World on YouTube.

From: The Adventures of Panama Red ; Year: 1973; Genre: Country/Rock I had this rather cute tune on my mind about a dashing desperado... well, yeah, we'll stick with that description of the song. Anyway, yes, we all know wot Panama Red is about, and I love the music and the way it's put together. Hear Panama Red on YouTube.

From: One Hot Minute ; Year: 1995; Genre: Alternative Rock I needed to pick something from RHCP today; this rather mellow and very interesting track just stood out to me for some reason. Hear My Friends on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Hot Butter - Telstar My song pick two years ago today: Nazareth - Hair of the Dog My song pick three years ago today: The Allman Brothers Band - Pony Boy My song pick four years ago today: The Alan Parsons Project - Games People Play My song pick five years ago today: Chicago - 25 or 6 to 4 My song pick six years ago today: Rush - A Farewell to Kings My song pick seven years ago today: Steeleye Span - Robbery With Violins My song pick eight year ago today: Jethro Tull - Dark Ages My song pick nine years ago today: The Blind Boys of Alabama - Amazing Grace   My song pick ten years ago today: Emerson, Lake & Palmer - From The Beginning

From: Trouble in the Land ; Year: 2000; Genre: Celtic Rock/Indie Rock This one is such a fun song in only the way Larry Kirwan and the guys in Black 47 could do. I'm usually laughing through most of the song or at least have a big smile on my face whilst listening to it. Hear I Got Laid On James Joyce's Grave on YouTube.

From: La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Volume One ; Year: 1992; Genre: Alternative Metal Here's one of my personal favourites off of White Zombie's La Sexorcisto album. Some of the better songs in existence, at least in the last 60-70 years, are about a car; this is an epic one. Hear Black Sunshine on YouTube.

From: Earth Omen ; Year: 1972; Genre: Hard Rock Thought I'd revisit Frijid Pink again; I haven't picked one of their songs in quite some time.

From: Larks' Tongues in Aspic ; Year: 1973; Genre: Progressive Rock Figured I should pick some more King Crimson; just felt perfect for today.

My song pick one year ago today: Soundgarden - By Crooked Steps My song pick two years ago today: Brave Belt - Never Comin' Home My song pick three years ago today: Marillion - The Uninvited Guest My song pick four years ago today: Rammstein - Nebel My song pick five years ago today: Rush - The Necromancer My song pick six years ago today: Les Elgart - Bandstand Boogie My song pick seven years ago today: Oomph! featuring Nina Hagen - Feiber My song pick eight years ago today: The Guess Who - Minstrel Boy My song pick nine years ago today: Metallica - Nothing Else Matters My song pick ten years ago today: Steely

From: Slaves and Masters ; Year: 1990; Genre: Hard Rock Had Deep Purple on my mind today; thought I'd pick a song from a more obscure album. This is the lead single from the album, which definitely has that '80s hard rock feel to it. Hear King of Dreams on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Counting Crows - Round Here My song pick two years ago today: Devo - Through Being Cool My song pick three years ago today: Depeche Mode - Personal Jesus My song pick four years ago today: Larry Graham and Graham Central Station - G.C.S.

From: Mirrors ; Year: 1979; Genre: Hard Rock Their title track to their 1979 studio album, Mirrors , got stuck in my head for some reason; it's kind of one I like, so I'm picking it.

From: Labour of Love II ; Year: 1989; Genre: Reggae I've always loved the bottom-heavy mix with this song; especially that kick drum and the low toms, they really bring the bounce and make it so fun to dance to. Hear Here I Am (Come and Take Me) on YouTube.

From: Sur La Mer ; Year: 1988; Genre: Rock/Synthpop For some reason I had this song on my mind yesterday; I absolutely thought I had chosen it already, but to my surprise I had not. I know I've mentioned it before, but The Moody Blues were my "gateway drug" so to speak into progressive rock. This and other ones of the era were the songs that got my into the band in the first place; once I dug through their back catalogue I ended up buying a lot of their records. And from there I looked into similar groups and immediately fell in love with the genre. Anyway, I Know You're Out There Somewhere has an upbeat yet urgent feeling about it, especially in the lyrics. The keyboards are the main draw for me along with the rhythm section. Hear I Know You're Out There Somewhere on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Fletcher Henderson and Louis Armstrong - Money Blues My song pick two years ago today: Weather Report - Palladíum My song pick three years

From: The Body, the Blood, the Machine ; Year: 2006; Genre: Indie Rock Heard this song come on my phone in the car yesterday while waiting. I've only picked three of their songs thus far, so I'm picking the track that played. They've always been a group I liked and still do, but sadly, I discovered that the band has officially broke up just a few days ago. At least I have a lot of their music to listen to still. Hear Test Pattern on YouTube.

From: Phase Two ; Year: 1972; Genre: Funk/Comedy Thought I'd do another Funky Friday pick today; had a couple in mind, but the late-great Jimmy Castor and his band have been on my mind off and on for the last month or so. Anyway, Luther the Anthropoid (Ape Man) was another in the style of his epic hit Troglodyte (Cave Man) ; both are quite similar musically and thematically, but just about as much fun to listen to. Hear Luther the Anthropoid (Ape Man) on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Pallas - Falling Down My song pick two years ago today: Gordon Lightfoot - Carefree Highway My song pick three years ago today: Molly Hatchet - Whiskey Man My song pick four years ago today: Alphaville - Forever Young My song pick five years ago today: Metallica - For Whom the Bell Tolls My song pick six years ago today: Sly and the Family Stone - Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin) My song pick seven years ago today: Iron Maiden - Flight of Icarus My

From: Clutching at Straws ; Year: 1987; Genre: Progressive Rock I absolutely love the atmosphere throughout this song musically, which compliments the lyrics and Fish's singing of them. So much emotion across the board in this vividly detailed track; one of their best in my opinion. Hear That Time of the Night (The Short Straw) on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The J. Geils Band - Love Stinks My song pick two years ago today: Savatage - Of Rage and War My song pick three years ago today: Frank Black - Headache My song pick four years ago today: Jethro Tull - Two Fingers My song pick five years ago today: Paul Simon - Hobo's Blues My song pick six years ago today: Megadeth - Sweating Bullets My song pick seven years ago today: Kristoph Klover - Fire in the Sky My song pick eight years ago today: David Bowie - The Supermen My song pick nine years ago today: The Rolling Stones - 2000 Light Years From Home   My song pick ten years ago toda

From: Blood Mountain ; Year: 2006; Genre: Sludge Metal/Progressive Metal Here's a good one to get your blood moving; the opening track off of Mastodon's Blood Mountain album, which still is my favourite of theirs. Gotta love those heavy riffs, starts and stops, and time signature changes; shows the mastery of their art. Hear The Wolf is Loose on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Steely Dan - Don't Take Me Alive My song pick two years ago today: Jethro Tull - Black Mamba My song pick three years ago today: Michael Martin Murphey - Medicine Man My song pick four years ago today: The Jimmy Castor Bunch - It's Just Begun My song pick five years ago today: Marillion - Script for a Jester's Tear My song pick six years ago today: Carmen - Purple Flowers My song pick seven years ago today: Rammstein - Keine Lust My song pick eight years ago today: Big Brother and the Holding Company (Janis Joplin) - Piece Of My Heart My song pick nine

From: Music for the Masses ; Year: 1987; Genre: New Wave/Synthpop Strangelove is one that anybody who was around in the 1980s should immediately recognize; it was a decently big hit single. It's always fun to go back and revisit some great song from years past; it's hard to believe that it's over 30 years since its release, but it has aged exceptionally well. Hear Strangelove on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Billy Joel - Uptown Girl My song pick two years ago today: Aerosmith - What it Takes My song pick three years ago today: Queen - Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy My song pick four years ago today: Rush - The Trees My song pick five years ago today: Jethro Tull - Orion My song pick six years ago today: Genesis - The Return of the Giant Hogweed My song pick seven years ago today: Rush - The Seeker My song pick eight years ago today: Queen - The Show Must Go On My song pick nine years ago today: Sammy Hagar - I Can't Drive 55

From: The X-Files: The Album ; Year: 1998; Genre: Alternative Rock I had The Cure on my mind when starting to make today's pick, so you know wot that means. Anyway, this is a nice, mellow number with some dark, brooding atmosphere around it; still among my favourites from the band. Hear More Than This on YouTube.

From: Do You Believe in Magic ; Year: 1965; Genre: Rock/Pop Had a couple of their songs in my head today, so, as the song title suggests, I made up my mind and picked one.

From: On Every Street ; Year: 1991; Genre: Rock Unwinding to some Dire Straits after getting back home last night; I decided to listen to the band's "swan song" album and came up with this one.

From: My Aim is True ; Year: 1977; Genre: Soft Rock/New Wave/Pop I've noticed that in past years for some reason in the month of April I have a tendency to pick songs from bands I had not chosen a song from prior. Well, I figured that I would do so again, with this light ballad from Elvis Costello. For being a song that contains a lot of pop/rock "zeitgeists" of the late '70s era it has some excellent music and ideas thrown in; especially that bass. Hear Alison on YouTube.

From: Minute by Minute ; Year: 1978; Genre: Soft Rock Had one of those "of course" moments when thinking about an appropriate song to choose today, since I normally pick an apt song for April 1st (April Fools' Day).
