Music! Mayhem! Madness!



Suede - Trash. I'm sure people would argue it isn't their best tune, but it was always one of  my favorites. The video isn't worth watching maybe minimizing the vid you could capture the "feeling."



New York Dolls - Trash. Every time I listen to this song it amazes me of the musicianship of the band. People tend to just focus on what they wore( Glam or Punk), but man the playing was great. Johnny Thunders guitar riffs, how  could you go wrong? I love the backing vocals, tasteful and superb.

(These are obviously not covers of each respected song, but share a similarity song titles.)

Mellow Musical Madness!




Johnny Thunders - You Can't Put Your Arms Around A Memory. Johnny's voice wasn't a typical great voice, but he had one thing that many artists do not, and that was passion. He sings with so much passion it makes you feel what he feels and damn that is special. Duff from Guns and Roses does a valiant job, but it is nothing comparable to the original.






Roy Orbison - Blue Angel.  When I think of a beautiful voice Roy Orbison is usually at the top. Here is a song that shows off his talents. Let Ol' Roy (Not the dog food...) tug at your heart strings.
