In an effort to broaden my horizons and not suck so much, I am going to seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly post what no man has posted before. Give me your musical recommendations of any nature, and I will reply in one of three ways: Pick Up, Pass, or Past (it's already saved on my Spotify). And I'll try to give some quick thoughts on the piece too in the offing. One per person until I've listened to yours, then feel free to drop another track.

Warren Zevon and Hunter S. Thompson - You're a Whole Different Person When You're Scared Pass. It's not bad at all. I'm just super-picky when it comes to Spotify. I don't think I want to listen to this voice with a very repetitive pattern to the lyrical delivery. The lyrics themselves are very good though. --- "It is too easy being monsters.

Mitski - Nobody Pass. The nobody pick-up part started getting excellent. I was losing interest in the sort of formless lounge singing at the beginning, but the piece found sort coherence at the end.

Rush - The Anarchist Pinned. I like Rush, I liked this track... but did I like it enough to put into my Spotify? It's a little too mushy for me to stick it in, I think. It's less a Spotify track and more a song I would listen to while surfing. I didn't fall in love with it yet. I have to think on it. Pray on it.

Sara Bareilles- Eden Pick Up. I like Sara Bareilles a lot, and it's got synth and arpeggios on guitar. You've nailed three great aspects of music. Although the vocal harmonics aren't always great.

I saved this to a playlist of games where I need to listen to the OSTs later so that this can be added to my VGM-only playlist that I use.

Johnny Cash - The Mercy Seat I was torn on what to do here. Because the lyrics are fucking great. But the song itself is just not something I see myself necessarily playing out of my song bank on Spotify without consistently skipping because I won't be in the mood to listen to it. This the sort of song I feel like I might occasionally seek out but not save. Interesting chord progression; you don't here it much anymore. Pass. --- "It is too easy being monsters.

Extreme Music - Bring Me Back To Life Okay so this was tough. There are some interesting instrumental choices here. The lyrics suck. It feels like someone helped a Sonic fan reach the maturity of an eighth grader. That's not always a bad thing, but this overall sounds like something off of the Transformers soundtrack and I just can't bring myself to do it. Pass. --- "It is too easy being monsters.

The girl sounds like the vocal track from MAGIX sound studio back in like 2013. I don't know what to think.

Hah! I like the song but that's also accurate. Did you know this opened with "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith? Were you aware that this piece started that way? Unfortunately, it turned into the end of "Layla" after that, and now I'm stuck trying to decided whether to pick this one up or not. But I'm leaning towards... yes. I like the costuming of this piece a lot. The piccolo was a nice touch. Pick up. --- "It is too easy being monsters. Let us try to be human." ~Victor Frankenstein, Penny Dreadful ...

The Dear Hunter - A Night on the Town Part of me hates when I see tracks over five minutes. This piece was so close to getting a checkmark every 30 seconds or so. It's still close to it. It never really reached me and hit me in the emotional core of my being. Every time it felt like it was about to hit a chord I was expecting, it seemed to pull back to safety just a little bit.

I ended up, by just a hair, picking this up. Don't make me regret it.
