Top Ten Sunday: BILLY IDOL (11/17-11/23)

1 Party In The CIA
2 White & Nerdy
3 The Saga Begins
4 Word Crimes
5 Ebay
6 TMZ
7 Ode to a Superhero
8 I Think I'm a Clone Now
9 A Complicated Song
10 Yoda

Not a song but this is one of the funnier things I've seen Weird Al do

1. One More Minute
2. Slime Creatures from Outer Space
3. Dare to Be Stupid
4. Buy Me a Condo
5. Smells Like Nirvana
6. I Lost on Jeopardy
7. Polkas On 45
8. Nature Trail to Hell
9. Amish Paradise
10. White & Nerdy

As you can surmise from this list, I gorged myself on the "In 3-D" and "Dare to Be Stupid" albums as a kid and then mostly fell off after that. I did, however, take my 12-year-old (at the time) cousin to see Weird Al live about 15 years ago, and he put on a fantastic show.

I’d like to nominate Dolly Parton.

Nope, you can post a nomination here as long as you don't currently have one in the queue!

nominating primus

Hell ya let’s gooooo

Want to change my nomination from Rage Against the Machine to Korn.

Hell yeah, REM.

This one is going to be tough, though. Gonna need to put some serious thought into it.

EDITED TO ADD: Yep, preliminary short list is 22 songs long. Damnit.

I interpret this to mean I must not be missing anything with WSP, so I’ll continue not really listening to them. (I do like Tallboy, though.)

1. It Happened Today
2. What's the Frequency Kenneth?
3. Man on the Moon
4. The Outsiders
5. Losing My Religion
6. Shiny Happy People
7. Radio Free Europe
8. Leave
9. It's the End of the World As We Know It
10. Final Straw

I'm having trouble putting a list together, but I will say there's a serious lack of World Leader Pretend on these lists.

I never got into REM enough to make a top ten, so I’ll just do a top 1, because this song deserves some votes:

1. Talk About The Passion

1. Perfect Circle
2. Driver 8
3. Sitting Still
4. Nightswimming
5. Harborcoat
6. Cuyahoga
7. Shaking Through
8. The Wrong Child
9. Country Feedback
10. Bad Day (either version)
