    Full Moon Fever - Tom Petty

    Holy shit, bruh

    I always liked really deep lyrics one really has to study to understand.


    "Don't you don't you want to thrill me
    Don't you be afraid to tell me
    Tell me if you think it's ugly
    But now don't you want to touch it anyway

    I've been looking for a reject
    And you ain't had nothing like me yet
    So don't you think it's time for motion
    I can take what you've been pushin'

    Hey I know what to do
    I'm gonna fuck fuck fuck fuck you
    Fuck you Ya I know what to do
    I'm gonna fuck fuck fuck fuck you"

    It actually *was* deep, in a Babylon Bee sort of way.

    Full Moon Fever - Tom Petty
    For the record I'd have probably voted Pixies over Soundgarden if included, but I've been trying to choose among Yella's offerings when possible.
    That will change for 88 if there's no "Operation: Mindcrime" or maybe "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" listed.

    Full Moon Fever was great; very worthy
    Cheers--

    I kinda ducked over Petty in 1994 with no Wildflowers. Felt I owed him one vote in this exercise.

    His first three records are all pretty solid. He had a dry spell in the 80s before Full Moon Fever.

    Freedom - Neil Young
    The ballads on Freedom are a little weak. Throw them out and you have:

    Rockin in the free world (acoustic)
    Crime in the city
    Don't Cry
    Eldorado
    On Broadway
    No more
    Too far gone
    Rockin in the free world (electric)

    Perhaps Neil's best work.

    I know...its kind of like saying "if you threw out his bad plays he had a really good game..."

    Dr. Feelgood - Motley Crue
    I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I would not call Neil Young "rock" music, same goes for Bonnie Raitt and The Cure. Not enough good electric guitar turned up to 11 in any of that. Nirvana album was before anyone had ever heard of them so I kinda think that's cheating - I actually didn't know they had an earlier album than Nevermind but I've never been a fan of them.

    This was also a year in which Milli Vanilli, Paula Abdul, and New Kids on the Block topped the charts, though, so...yeah.

    The list of “rock” sub genres is endless. Folk rock and metal are both types of “rock”.

    Nirvana and Pearl Jam thought Young rocked because he did with Cray Horse

    And he did acoustic stuff

    And country

    I know there are many sub genres. I'm saying that folk rock is listened to by fat lesbians on Vashon Island and is shitty music. Should not even be in the same zip code of groups like Motley Crue (and it's not like Crue is some world-beating all-time group).

    Yeah yeah yeah. Doesn't really move me because I'm not a fan of Nirvana or Pearl Jam, but I know what you're saying. I'm sure Neil Young inspired a lot of bands out there but his sound is like grandpa music to me and I'm pushing 40 years old. I grew up with my Dad as lead singer and guitar in a couple different kick-ass rock bands in the 80's, went to his rehearsals and even got snuck in a couple shows at clubs so my taste buds were influenced by stuff that has no relation to Raitt or Young. This is why Van Halen beats the hell out of all the hippy folk stuff.

    No, I'm saying that IMO Neil Young sucks and so does Bonnie Raitt. Pretty cool that I can say that and you can tell me that you think some bands I like suck. Interesting concept.

    Zeppelin were folk rockers much of the time. Sabbath did folk songs - eg Laguna sunrise. Metallica dabbled in folk based music. I’m not following your argument.

    I love Dylan and Neil Young. I love AC DC and Metallica. There’s no mutual exclusivity here.

    I mean, it's an instrumental and I would always skip that song on an album. I like Zepellin and would also skip their folk songs.

    And that’s fine. It’s a matter of taste. All I’m saying is that folk is a integral part of the rich stew which comprises “rock” music.

    I understand not liking Neil Young and any argument I make about it is in jest. Thats not what you said though. You said he isn't rock which is just false. Opinions based on falsehoods are stupid.
