#170 [#187]:

Name: Wired For Madness, Pt. 1.2 (Out Of Body)
Origin: Jordan Rudess
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYO9gnjBSIQ" data-time="


Nominator: Mycro (12/15)

(5.5, 5, 6.6)

[The opening reminded me of the Mr. Saturn village, or more specifically some RPG that wants to be Earthbound and tries too hard to be goofy. Thankfully that phase was short-lived, but I felt it was more a demonstration of everything the artist could do than a real song. Heres me being goofy! Now heres some epic guitar! Now heres a creepy outro for a spooky song!. The variety could be the main draw for other people, but it kept my mind from wandering or identifying with any specific phase.]

I have nothing further to add to that write-up.

[Final Thoughts: Good, but perhaps it works better in context with the rest of the Wired for Madness songs?]

Nominator: Snake (9/15)

(2, 3.5, 6.6)

[Loud and confusing, I dont think I understood this one at all. It also ended too abruptly.]

I don't think I've seen lyrics as badly butchered as the only attempt I found of anyone transcribing this song:

That is so completely wrong that I can scarcely believe they weren't trying to be wrong. How can you possibly take "My boss is up on my ass" and think you heard it as "By time this goes off my hatch"?

I think part of my problem is that I tried to read along with a lyric site the first time I heard this and it's so glaringly wrong that I couldn't make any sense of anything. Listening to the song itself, it seems to be a fairly standard "my job & boss suck" song, but at least I can follow it.

Short song, but it's nice to find one that actually does end once they run out of new material.
