Day 39: Old Man vs Young Men

Niel Young: Old Man

David Bowie: Young Americans

Tough call. Young Americans...

Some of these choices are similar to my preference between Coke and Pepsi. I like Pepsi a bit more. I find Pepsi a bit more sweet and Coke a bit more dry. But the reality comes down to this: If I feel like dry I drink Coke; if I feel like something sweet I drink Dr Pepper.

How does this pertain to music? It's difficult to choose between two songs when in all likelihood there are other factors which change whether you might choose one over another.

Day 40:

Black Sabath; War Pigs

AC/DC: You Shook Me All Night Long

War Pigs is a fine song... damn fine song, but has anybody here not tried to test the upper limits of their high notes by singing along to She Shook Me All Night Long?

My throat happily hurts anytime that song comes on and I'm alone.

She Shook Me All Night Long

Day 40:

Black Sabath; War Pigs

AC/DC: You Shook Me All Night Long

I'm going with Black Sabbath with this classic.
Easy pick over AC DC's meddly of Muddy Water's song and Bon Scotts stolen lyrics.
Led Zeppelin had the better cover!

 

[cheerupcharlie]

I will go AC/DC... even if @nefansince75 can't get the title correct.

 

[nefansince75]

I will go AC/DC... even if @nefansince75 can't get the title correct.

Does make me look foolish to praise a song and not know the correct name...

To be fair, a lot of the lyrics refer to her as "she"...

 

[molsaniceman]

AC/DC

 

[YankeeRebel]

Well I am choosing War Pigs in a losing effort. Songs about a chick breaking you off are a dime a dozen and always lack originality IMO.

War Pigs

So then your cast vote is for War Low Rider?

Day 41: In honor of BK being on the road.

War: Low Rider

Canned Heat: Goin Up The Country

[YankeeRebel]

Well, that's frickin helpful! Do you want me to include some disco?

 

[Southieinnc]

Showing your age!

Post of the year there!
Only problem about this thread - we are learning things about each other We didn't want to know!

I'm taking Going Up the Country. Because I'm old enough to like Canned Heat.
How old do you think @Yankee Traveler was when this song came out?
I'm betting he was n't born yet! 1968

Not sure but if he doesn't like either I guess he doesn't have to. Not sure how you can't like either but it's all subjective I guess
