No, it wasn't the sound, it was the cold, dry air entering my ears.

Not a fan of air conditioner in general. I've never had it in my home before, so I'm just used to the heat or to surviving with fans.

I'm okay with it in crowded rooms during really hot days. But people exaggerate it.

Gentle Giant - So Sincere

Oh man this is delightfully weird. (Hard Epi read if that even needs to be said.) It's musically goofy and lyrically perplexing. Definitely somewhere between an acid trip, a disjointed dream, and a riddle. I'm really not sure what this is supposed to be, and that's kind of exactly what this cat was going for.

9.4

To be entirely fair the first bit is not really representative of the song as a whole. Try a bit in the middle. But it still won't be your cup of tea.

Eh? I'm just doing through category 3 tonight if that answers your question.

It took me less than 1 minute to put this song into my list, and I'm still waiting to see if there are vocals or not.

A Latimer fan, eh? Didn't know that.

Camel's "For Today" may well be my favorite song period, and it's all him.

Procol Harum - A Salty Dog

This has Epi written all over it lol. I only know Procol Harum from that one Bach-y song they did that everyone knows, and this has a similar style with the lovely strings and the drums. It's nice, and yet somehow still sounds dated to my generationally-challenged ears. Maybe it's just the singer's voice, but I think the cinematic nature of it has a part as well. Thematically/lyrically this is obviously a winner, and musically it's very well put together.

9.0

nutella wrote: ↑Wed Sep 18, 2019 2:06 am Now, I don't think the following is strictly required but I got the idea from Shad and it sounds ideal: while listening through, the host should somehow set aside and randomize the links for each category such that they don't know which is whose until the reveal, so that there's no bias or preconceptions based on who submitted what.
