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

From: FEVER DREAM ; Year: 2019; Genre: Indie Rock I decided to give this album a listen recently and was surprised that thus far this is the only song I have heard that I like, which is kind of sad in my opinion. Most of the music on the disc is very modern pop oriented, but at least this song still has some of the sound from their previous albums that I really liked. Hear Alligator on YouTube.

From: Rocket Cottage ; Year: 1976; Genre: Folk Rock This is the band's take on the traditional song Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye with of course their own modifications and style. Basically the song consists of singing over the top of a drum beat, which actually ends up working pretty good. Hear Fighting for Strangers on YouTube.

From: Sir Army Suit ; Year: 1978; Genre: Rock/Pop This is a very "Beatlesque" sounding track all the way around, but at the same time a lot of their own sound is present as well. This song is also known for the animated music video, which from wot I understand was to be part of an animated special that was to feature more animated music videos that would've been titled " Happy New Year Planet Earth " that never has been released. Watch the music video on YouTube.

From: Stormwatch ; Year: 1979; Genre: Hard Rock/Progressive Rock I had this album on my brain this morning.

From: Bad Company ; Year: 1974; Genre: Hard Rock I had this song come on this morning and it's been running through my mind ever since, so I thought I'd choose it for today's pick.

From: Cease to Begin ; Year: 2007; Genre: Indie Rock Such a good, mellow song to end the album with.

From: Blind Faith ; Year: 1969; Genre: Blues Rock Had this album playing in my head most of last night; figured it was a sign I was to pick another one from it.

S. Bach - BWV 870 - Prelude and Fugue...

From: Killing Machine ; Year: 1978; Genre: Metal I "spun the wheel" so to speak and decided on picking yet another one from Judas Priest. This track is among my favourites from the band, near the top of my list I would have to say. Hear Evening Star on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: John Denver - Sunshine On My Shoulders My song pick 2 years ago today: Blue Öyster Cult - Madness to the Method My song pick 3 years ago today: Jerry Reed - Rooster Jones My song pick 4 years ago today: The Steve Miller Band - Journey From Eden My song pick 5 years ago today: Kansas - Dust in the Wind My song pick 6 years ago today: King Crimson - Red My song pick 7 years ago today: Sky - March to the Scaffold My song pick 8 years ago today: Rhapsody of Fire - Holy Thunderforce My song pick 9 years ago today: Guided by Voices - Everybody Thinks I’m a Raincloud (When I'm Not Looking) My song pick 10 years ago today: Gorō Yamaguchi - Tsuru No Sugomori (Cr...

From: Electric Universe ; Year: 1983; Genre: R&B/New Wave Having to make somewhat of an abbreviated pick of sorts, but not skimping on the song by any stretch.

From: Goodbye Yellow Brick Road ; Year: 1973; Genre: Rock From what I understand this song was written in response to poor treatment of the band in a Jamaican recording studio, which they found the situation unworkable and instead recorded the album at the famed Château d'Hérouville. Hear Jamaica Jerk-Off on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Jimmy Castor - Amazon My song pick 2 years ago today: April Wine - Enough is Enough My song pick 3 years ago today: Faith No More - Falling to Pieces My song pick 4 years ago today: The Presidents of the United States of America - Peaches My song pick 5 years ago today: The Rolling Stones - Midnight Rambler My song pick 6 years ago today: The Five Stairsteps - O-o-o Child My song pick 7 years ago today: The Delgados - Mr. Blue Sky My song pick 8 years ago today: Muse - Citizen Erased My song pick 9 years ago today: The Darkness - Is It Just Me My song pick 10 years ago today: Blind Willie Johnson - Dark Was...

From: The Yumyum Tree ; Year: 2009; Genre: Space Rock/Progressive Rock For the last few days off and on I've had Ozric Tentacles on my mind; today seemed like a perfect day to choose another one of their songs.

From: Seasons End ; Year: 1989; Genre: Progressive Rock Well, today is the last day of Winter and tomorrow will be the first day of Spring, (at least here in the Northern Hemisphere of the planet).

From: Ériù's Wheel ; Year: 2019; Genre: Celtic Folk Metal Happy St. Patrick's Day everybody! I noticed that I have not chosen a song from Waylander on St. Patrick's Day yet, so I am.

From: Danger Money ; Year: 1979; Genre: Progressive Rock There's a lot of amazing keyboard work in this song by Eddie Jobson; he really shows his abilities on this one. John Wetton's vocals and the story in the lyrics are another big draw for me; great music all the way around. Hear Rendezvous 6:02 on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Parliament - Aqua Boogie (A Psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadoloop) My song pick 2 years ago today: The Enid - And Then There Were None My song pick 3 years ago today: Ted Nugent - Stranglehold My song pick 4 years ago today: Muse - Revolt My song pick 5 years ago today: Vixen - Edge of a Broken Heart My song pick 6 years ago today: Rush - Mystic Rhythms My song pick 7 years ago today: The Moody Blues - Dr. Livingstone, I Presume My song pick 8 years ago today: Django Reinhardt & Stéphane Grappelli (Quintette du Hot Club de France) - Chasing Shadows My song pick 9 years ago today: The Dave Brubeck Quartet - Take Fi...

From: From Genesis to Revelation ; Year: 1969; Genre: Psychedelic Rock/Progressive Rock I heard some of their early music yesterday and it got me in the mood to hear more of their music from this embryonic period of the band's development. It's a very interesting song, The Serpent , rife with Biblical and psychedelic imagery. Hear The Serpent on YouTube.

From: The Real Thing ; Year: 1989; Genre: Rap Metal/Alternative Metal/Funk Metal It's hard to believe that it's been over 30 years since this song was released... it doesn't seem like it. It still has the same almost new feeling every time I play it. If I remember correctly Epic was one of the songs, (if not the song), that launched the whole rap metal genre that was so popular in the 1990s. Still, it's strange how diverse Faith No More is musically; they seem to be able to change genres at will almost and never stick with one either for very long. They are for sure a very talented band. Hear Epic on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Stevie Wonder - Too Shy To Say My song pick 2 years ago today: The Postal Service - Brand New Colony My song pick 3 years ago today: Wolfmother - Joker & the Thief My song pick 4 years ago today: Peter Gabriel - Digging in the Dirt My song pick 5 years ago today: Slaughter - Up All Night My song pick 6 years...

From: The Turn of a Friendly Card ; Year: 1980; Genre: Progressive Rock You can certainly hear a notable Pink Floyd influence in this song; quite a pretty track and nice to just sit back and listen to with headphones on.

From: Perdida ; Year: 2020; Genre: Alternative Rock It's my second pick from the new decade! I heard this song the other day and thought I'd make it a pick soon.

From: Black Sails at Midnight ; Year: 2009; Genre: Folk Metal/Pirate Metal/Power Metal This is an awesome instrumental piece from the pirate metal group Alestorm.

From: Cab Calloway ; Year: 1956 (1939); Genre: Swing Jazz It's been a while since I've chosen a song from Cab Calloway, who is one of my favourite big band leaders, boy, was he a showman and had an amazing voice.
