Title: Song vs. Song Game Post by: analogdemon on January 19, 2006, 11:16:30 AM OK here's how this works. Name two Beach Boys songs, then the next person will say which one they think would beat the other in a bloody no-holds-barred duel. So for instance, I'll say "Song A vs. Song B". The next person will come along and say "Song A", then post their own two songs for the next person. No attacking people's choices!! :) Let the game begin:

Overnight Sensation also beats every song we have pitted against each other prior to this post, and every song we will continue to post. It's the greatest. He's right, y'know! If we had to write "in my opinion" after every sentence that could not be stated as an objective fact then we would have to write it or say it after every sentence, in my opinion.

It's nice to see that you made friends here etc., but in this case, there's no need to defend hypehat. It's not like I was insulting him or sth. Just noticed he often states his opinions as facts, like everyone must agree with his musical taste. Hence, my objection to his post about Overnight Sensation beating every song suggested in this thread. I don't agree with it at all.Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: bringahorseinhere? on July 29, 2013, 06:55:56 AM Girl from the NC (with JC)

Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: RangeRoverA1 on August 19, 2013, 04:08:07 AM 2Mr. Roll:
My post was totally harmless, so I don't get the use of sarcastic tone in response to that at all. Division into 3 fragments was unnecessary. Also -- don't you think it's funny that people always assume an opinion is being passed off as fact when it's an opinion that they disagree with? In case of hypehat, it didn't seem like it. If it was that I just disagree with one's opinion, I wouldn't say what I'd said because wouldn't it be boring if we had the same mindset? But anyway, hypehat already clarified his habit, and in a very polite way. Thank you, hh! Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: halblaineisgood on June 06, 2014, 06:10:14 AM .

Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: bluesno1fann on February 15, 2015, 11:14:12 PM I like both versions, but I gotta go with the 1st one, if only because I like the album it came out from (and movie). The Singer Not the Song (my all-time favourite RS song) vs. Memphis Tennessee (the Animals cover) (What's with all that downsizing of letters? I had to copy-paste them to look what they read.) I quite like both songs, but I'm going to have to side with The Singer Not The Song. Memphis Tennessee is good, but doesn't stand out from the album it comes from. In fact the majority of the songs from their debut album sounds very similar to Memphis Tennessee that you have to be familiar with it enough to differentiate between them.

Range Rover, thanks for the info about Lou and NRBQ. I didn't know that the Captain MC'd for them. I have the NRBQ 'Captain Lou' single with 'Boardin' House Pie' on the flip side.

I love that bass sound. Sounds like a Rickenbacker, my favorite type of bass. In regards to While Smashing The Car, yeah it's a great tune, ain't it? The Captain is way underrated in my opinion. Check out his album Mad Cows And Englishmen, every song is a knock-out. Got any bubblegum?

Let's Misbehave. Beatles- Paperback Writer vs Stones- Nineteenth Nervous Breakdown Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: Michael Edward Osbourne on February 27, 2015, 10:52:50 AM I would've voted for Let's Misbehave by Irving Aaronson and his Commanders. Nice slideshow video in that one. Not a bad tune either.
PAPERBACK WRITER all the way! I think it's a better song than 19th Nervous Breakdown. Also I like the guitar sound better in Paperback Writer. Keeping with popular 60s music that doesn't even need youtube links, howzabout this one...

The Moby Grape link you posted is actually 'Nantucket Sleighride Pt. 2' by Mountain. I absolutely love Mountain's heavy sound and would certainly vote 'Vera' off if you actually meant it to be Mountain vs Floyd. But Moby Grape's 'Just Like Gene Autry' sounds like a psychedelic band getting drunk while spinning an old 78 rpm. It's interesting but I feel seasick after I listen to it. So the winner is 'Vera' by Pink Floyd.

I will go for "Up for the Down Stroke".
2 of the best covers: Elvis Presley "Blue Suede Shoes" vs. Taco "Cheek to Cheek" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZx3sTFuorA) (personal favorite :3d, vintage sound + synths=interesting combo) Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: Michael Edward Osbourne on April 01, 2015, 12:40:33 PM Going with Elvis. The Taco tune was somewhat interesting though.
That's Really Super, Supergirl by XTC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itGiER9KHHY vs. Plaistow Patricia by Ian Dury & The Blockheads https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI4fiTGZSpo Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: RangeRoverA1 on April 03, 2015, 12:35:13 AM I don't like the cussing in "Plaistow", but it's good - cool kazoo.
Time for the Voice. Kids. Russian. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmVbk_f7le0 (Angela :3d) vs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqxEL0BPZjI (Ivetta covering "Girl from Ipanema") Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: Michael Edward Osbourne on April 05, 2015, 03:32:16 PM Going with Ivetta covering "Girl from Ipanema". It was much smoother than the other one.
Surfer Guy OR Surfer Girl Little Sidewalk Surfer Girl by The Hondells https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKOtf-lhtcI VS Surfer Joe by The Surfaris https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJLAyrTN5Fc Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: RangeRoverA1 on April 05, 2015, 10:32:41 PM The song Angela is singing is supposed to be non-smooth, coz she covered one of the local rock bands. It was a hit sometime.
It's "Surfer Joe" for me, but that's amazing falsetto on the other tune. George Harrison - Got My Mind vs. Toni Basil - Hey Mickey> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3E-Zrg9CB_Q Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: alf wiedersehen on April 05, 2015, 10:58:54 PM I'm going with "Hey Mickey" solely for the dance moves.
"Do the Reggay" by Toots & the Maytals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJwfh2TbmJg vs. "Teenage Riot" by Sonic Youth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvDuATZCY8I Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: Michael Edward Osbourne on April 06, 2015, 07:37:00 AM Going with TEENAGE RIOT. I love how Kim Gordon talks in some songs.
SST RECORDS Mirage by The Meat Puppets https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIif5Ipn17g VS Makes No Sense by Husker Du https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bd3MtdzKZ38 Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: RangeRoverA1 on April 08, 2015, 11:49:34 PM I thought her talking was unnecessary myself. Anyway, I'm going for Husker Du, I liked the voodoo-like vox.
"Shall we twist?" Muslim Magomaev "Best City on Earth" (about 60s' Moscow)> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V45GrarQU0A vs. Joey Dee & the Starliters "Peppermint Twist"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-zXqSwnvi8 I would pick the former, one of the few Russian songs I love. The guy was great! He actually sang "Chattanooga" and lived in the U.S. for awhile. Kinda famous figure there.

My choice is obvious, the Russian song. I'm very proud that we've got such good singers that could easily compete with any western music folk. And I'm being totally objective here, coz I don't have strong patriotic spirit or whatev. cont. au bord's fashion "Songs don't need youtube links" Fool's Garden "Lemon Tree" vs. Pet Shop Boys "Go West" (I used to like this when I was little, just cool military beat and back-ups) I paired these because I always thought the leads in both bands sound eerily similar.

It's labeled "Official Music Video" but I think it's an appearance on German TV just before Victor Willis quit as lead singer. David "Scar" Hodo is missing his hard hat (and his shades) in it, so you know something strange has taken place before shooting. It may well have involved Randy "Cowboy" Jones who looks like he's been raising his customary heck someplace, even more than usual. Pretty funny stuff.

I'm giving the edge of River Deep, Mountain High to The Animals. I'm a bigger fan of The Animals than Tina Turner. Speaking of The Animals, here's some late 60s Animals: San Franciscan Nights https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWb5YQPlAJc vs. Sky Pilot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69zvFnVa03g Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: RangeRoverA1 on June 07, 2018, 04:28:49 AM "San Franciscan Nights".

I prefer the Partridge Family theme song. It's more interesting musically, and it harkens back to the inspiration for the show, the Cowsills. Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: RangeRoverA1 on June 07, 2018, 05:18:26 AM Jolly good. To continue game, list 2 songs, then next poster picks which they like.
Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: NOLA BB Fan on June 07, 2018, 07:50:33 PM Hard to pick songs.
Decided to pick 2 favorites from my wild days in the mid 80s. They are great in your face songs. If you are unable to find these online I'll try to get to a computer to post links, but assume that they should be easy to find as they were hits. The songs: In the Middle of the Road - The Pretenders Would I Lie to You? - The Eurythmics Chrissie Hynde and Annie Lennox were both in top form.

In the Middle of the Road - The Pretenders https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_nrAyo0tLI Would I Lie to You? - The Eurythmics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_q9zF8OsR_8 Excellent songs both. ;=) Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: RangeRoverA1 on June 08, 2018, 02:59:43 PM Either song isn't my bag but pick Eurythmics - much better voice (anything is than Chrissie Hynde's).
"Look Through Any Window" by Hollies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odzYoYk9lWI vs. "(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay" by Otis Redding https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISxskvJ9FwI Title: Re: Song vs. Song Game Post by: NOLA BB Fan on June 08, 2018, 08:49:09 PM Hollies song is good but Otis Redding's song is iconic and one of my favorites. I remember feeling sad hearing the song back then since Redding was killed in a plane crash shortly after recording it.
