[The Dream]

Man out of all the great songs listed you come with those????.........those aren't even some of Em's best songs.....Mocking Bird = trash.

[Voodoo Child]

"Black Steel In The Hour of Chaos"; PE is one of my fav's... 'I've got tapes, I've got CD's, I've got my Public Enemy. My lil white ass is tickled pink when I listen to the music that makes me think.'

[Voodoo Child]

"Is This Love" --- A lot of stations really overplay it, so that's kind of altered my perception of it, but I remember loving the hell out of it when I first heard it. Classic Marley...

Baha Men - Who Let The Dogs Out
VERSUS
Tag Team - Whoomp There It Is

 

[Voodoo Child]

"Who Let The Dogs Out" - Actually didn't mind it the first two or three times I heard it; not that I enjoyed it, but it wasn't on my nerves from the start like "Whoomp There It Is".

The two best neo-soul artists out there today...

"Super Duper Love" by Joss Stone

vs.

"U Don't Know My Name" by Alicia Keys

 

[Trip]

"U Don't Know My Name". Love the phone call in the middle of the song.

My two picks:

"Hemorrhage (In My Hands)" - Fuel

VS.

"Broken" - Seether/Amy Lee

 

[Mamba]

Ahh that's a tough one for me, I love both songs, but I'll go with Broken. My favorite Fuel song is Bad Day.
