1/10 for that great cover AND for Star Trekkin? Seriously?

I'm out of this thread, it makes me sad :(

BreOl72: But I can offer something in regard to Kirk, too:

Oh god that's terrible. Why would you do that on purpose? 1/10 and a plague on your house.

I'm disappointed. So much Kirk, and nobody has thought to give us the creme de la creme of Star Trek actor songs? Nobody wanted to link to Leonard Nimoy singing the Ballad of Bilbo Baggins? Even if you have heard the song, if you have not seen the video as well then you know nothing of majesty; nothing of horror. Truly, this is the stuff Lovecraft wrote about. This, the domain of the Crawling Chaos, Nyarlathotep. Ia! Ia!

OK, seriously, I won't link anything horrible again...probably.
I actually thought that might be Shatner singing "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds". Equally as awful, trust me! :P

On a side note, has anyone posted either of Cory Feldman's "Today Show" performances? I would imagine that doing so would result in an immediate lifetime ban from the forum.

Since the previous reply neither rated nor posted a new song, guess I'll try to nudge this once more :p
Er, the 60s were weird. For that reason, let's pass it, 5/10 :))
How 'bout Nightwish's Sagan?

Nightwish was very good with the voice of Tarja Turunen. The song is nice though, 6 out of 10.

Here is mine, it's a bit sad (hence my mood) so feel free to downrate it ;)

That took a while to get going. Not terrible, but not really my jam, either. 6/10.

Hope your mood hasn't anything to do with the theater disaster. Here's a much more cheerful song. This is the Norman Cook (Fatboy Slim) remix of Cornershop's "Brimful of Asha"

Good mix of a good song, 8/10. Norman Cooks Uncle owns a pub in my local town and I saw him DJ there a couple of times in the past, which is cool.

My favourite female singer is Kate Bush so here is one of her songs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAj8suae3WY
Beautiful woman with a beautiful voice.

Pretty good voice, and I could see how her particular style could result in some good songs, but I didn't like that one. 4/10 (and 1/10 for that music video).

Continuing in the vein of female singers with somewhat distinctive vocal styles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpzLizeKB2k
Wow, I give up on this thread.

What is it with you and Breja? "A person didn't like my supermostfavoritest song I posted, and/or likes a song I hate: abandon all hope!"... Or, you shrug, you go on with your day, maybe post something else later. All tastes in art and entertainment are subjective. No need to take your toys and go home. : )

HunchBluntley: All tastes in art and entertainment are subjective. No need to take your toys and go home. : )
Especially given how easy it is to like something that isn't objectively good. I mean, my personal tastes tend toward Baroque/Neoclassical and though I've got The Piano Guys, Bach, Aaron Copland, Penguin Cafe Orchestra, and Tchaikovsky in my CD changer right now, if someone links Ke$ha's Your Love is My Drug, or Flo Rida's Low (Or for that matter, Lil Jon's Get Low...or DJ Snake's bigger hit videos like Get Low or Turn Down For What...) I'm giving that shit a 9/10 and you can fight me if you don't like it XD

But as to your track you linked...I haven't liked atonality much since I had to study it for a year because I took music theory as two electives, so I'm not loving that tracks music, but she's got a nice voice. Like the breathy style. If she had a better musician writing her music I'd probably buy an album but that track's probably a 5/10 for me.

I was toying with going with Annie Lennox for another female musician with a distinctive tone but I have to imagine everyone knows her, so I'll go with a slightly less well-known option, who also did (I think) her best work when someone else was writing her music. Here's Imogen Heap from her Frou Frou days, singing Let Go.

Heh, it's almost an anagram for Get Low. I did not do that on purpose.

Starts poorly, was expecting a boring one, but then it gets better. Let's say 6/10.

Wanted to post something else, but seem to be a bit stuck on this one again now. Probably for the 3rd time since I first heard it.
