Interesting factoid about me: I'm super cool.

Second factoid: I love music.

Random fact about me: I am not cool at all.

But I like weird music...
And Japanese music...
Especially weird, Japanese music.

Here you go. I will start off small, with a Japanese group who sings in English...

I don't think I count as cool (huge shock, I know

), but I love music. My tastes run all over the place, so sorry if my suggestions wind up a little out there.

For my suggestion this week I offer you I'm a Mess by The Rasmus.

Most people don't read books at all anymore. So by that fact alone you are both definitely cool!

Now, granted, maybe, you're not as super-duper incredibly cool and modest as me, but we can't all be.

I don't know if I am cool or not, but here is my nomination:

I'm pretty rad, in fact I have a copy of the movie. I still can't believe it wasn't mentioned in Ready Player One. Anyhow, here's my suggestion based off our current antagonistic climate. A powerful song about two very different types of people coming to see each other in a similar light.

Country, @"Escapeartist"? Nice

I like more older country (can't believe I'd say that about music from ten years ago, but...), but I find some now and then that interests me. I'll have to give this one a listen. I'm sure I've heard it before...

We all know that @Scott is the coolest most modest one here, so no one needs to stroke your ego.

I believe I can nominate again...

I nominate Nick Drake, Way To Blue

I love this song, and I love listening to Nick Drake. I'm weird :geek:

Let's say nominations can be once a day per person instead of once a week at least for now. There's no need to limit them if there are not too many.

If it starts to pick up again, I'll try to give preference to those who haven't nominated before.

I edited the OP to change 'week' to 'day'.

I really don't have a good way to set up this song.
Just...yeah...

No words.

rssllue · Post by **rssllue** » 05 Jan 2016, 21:43

Awesome song!

Gravy · Post by **Gravy** » 06 Jan 2016, 17:45

Yeah, it's probably one of those songs others would get annoyed at rather quickly...but it's my pick today because...why not? It could be the best day of my life, or yours...
