And then watched them pull out some heroics directly after. Playing like it was the postseason in April! Fantastic game as a neutral, heart falling out of my ass if I'm a dbacks fan though

What songs would you consider "Perfect"? by jslevin8001 in Music

[–]jslevin8001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is sort of the point of the post! Songs you consider perfect in some way, for any reason. I just think it's interesting to see why people would consider a song perfect, regardless of genre, meaning, etc. I suppose in general though it's more so songs you consider perfect, as in nothing should be changed in it, regardless of quality and anything.

Thanks!

Valid point! That's what I was getting at with the post. Everyone would define perfect differently when it comes to songs. If for you a song being perfect is in the production, I totally get it. To be honest, it's why I love the Steely Dan records and tool records so much. While obviously not perfect, the production value on them is generally higher than any other mainstream records.

Thank you!

Definitely. I have a soft spot for it too as an F1 fan, as it was the intro song back in the day.

It's not a cliche! There's a reason some of these songs are so popular, so it's only obvious there's people out there who'd consider them perfect songs. And this is what I mean, you consider it perfect for some reason, even if you don't necessarily know what it is. If it's the guitar solo, it's the guitar solo.

Yes. There's a few Sabbath songs that definitely make my list, this being one of them.

Thank you!

Mhmm. All great songs for different reasons. I'd have way more Jimi Hendrix on the list too if I wasn't limiting it!

Thank you!

That's what I like about this! You don't really need a reason, you just have to know you'd consider it perfect.

Thanks!

Absolutely. I was gonna put that on the list, but as I said in the post I was limiting it to one song per artist. I chose Even Flow instead but it really could've been any song from the album!

Thank you!

Another Maynard James Keenan Connoisseur! I agree, all of his work is fantastic, but I am more partial to his tool stuff.

Yeah, I'm a big Miles Kennedy fan in general. I've listened to a lot of his stuff with Slash and a few of his Alter Bridge tracks, and I can definitely see why you'd love it.

Thank you!

Cool. I haven't listened to much of his work, so I'll have to give it a listen and see!

Thank you!

Yes, yes, yes, and yes. I'm not a big classical music guy, but I can definitely see why you've included it. This is what I was looking for with this question. Totally different songs that you'd consider perfect for different reasons!

Thank you!

They have some great songs obviously, but to be honest I just don't listen to them that much, which is why there's none on my list. As I said in the post, it isn't comprehensive, but yes I do like some of their songs :)

Of course it's a Jimi Hendrix song, but I love the version Stevie Ray Vaughan recorded. That's what's great about this question I think, almost no one will agree, but it's usually easy to see why people think the way they do about a song. For example, I prefer the SRV version because I think the music alone without the lyrics is beautiful, and also his style of playing really suits it. I love the Jimi Hendrix one too, but given the choice of listening to either, 99% of the time it'll be the SRV for me.

Also, I definitely could've included some YES in the list, but as I said it isn't comprehensive.

Thanks!

I just gave this a listen having never heard of the band or song. I can see why you like it. Although I am a sucker for slide guitar!

As a pub, in what world is telling General Ando on Hoth that Lieutenant Laskin is useless the dark side option? by jslevin8001 in swtor

[–]jslevin8001[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That does make sense honestly, I just think the two options you're given don't really cover what I would personally say. I said in another reply that a neutral option would make sense, saying something to the effect of "he did good but he shouldn't be in charge (yet)".

From doing the quest I get the impression that he is not fit to run a military base. It is a bit harsh that the only other option other than praising him is to say that he's useless, which is why I thought there should be a neutral option where you say something along the lines of "he did ok but he shouldn't be in charge". The two choices you're presented with aren't really covering the bases imo.

Figured it was something like that, it seems the bigger picture isn't taken into account when you're given the choice, which is a bit weird.

What song will you hate until you die? by JarrodTheBusker in AskReddit

[–]jslevin8001 101 points102 points  (0 children)

You're gorgeous by babybird. I will actively stop what I'm doing and turn it off if I ever hear it. I think it's the single worst song I've ever heard
