OT - Suggestions.

Need to splurge on iTunes for some great rock. Downloaded "Our Song" and "Broken Man" from JSS and heavily impressed. I want some good songs from that sort of genre. Criteria: great vocals, melodic rock feel, extremely catchy. Let's keep ballads to a minimum, if possible.

Suggestions, ladies and gentlemen?

You kick so much ass it's not even funny. I really, really like the sound of Jaded Heart.

Hey! I'm glad you like them....Like I said itunes sucks for this stuff. They don't have Cockroach. You could always get it from Danger Danger's official site, ebay, or download a couple of tracks from a P2p site....and if you liked it - you could get the CD....

I'll try to think of more.....They don't have much Harem Scarem either.... :evil:

:lol:

Eyes.....had to throw some 80s JSS in there. :wink:

If you like Lonely Shade of Blue, you might like this one too, one of my faves......different side of JSS' vocals. Lots of different ranges. :) Great stuff! 4 U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJ0ZRwbe ... re=related

Another old fave EMB ~ Letting it Out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFoRFvmp0n0

One thing I just love, JSS and EM have such massive back catalogues with the bands they've been in and their solo projects, that I'm always finding something new I haven't heard. Soo many great old gems, so little time. :lol:

Don't even get me started MG. :lol: K, I'll shut up now...... :lol: :P
