Song of the day...........The New Cars with "Good Times Roll"

One of the best revised lineup bands that I've ever heard is The New Cars. Most bands that are resurrected with a new lineup never live up to the original. Especially when you replace a lead singer. That usually never works. I honestly can't even comprehend a Stone Temple Pilots, for instance, with vocals from the guy from Linkin Park. I can't see how that can work. I guess Van Halen may be the ultimate successful band that has changed lead singers and still maintained their success. Not far behind them though should be these guys. Todd Rundgren steps in and makes these songs sound like they are supposed to sound. The guy obviously knows his stuff. Check out this version of "Good Times Roll."

Song of the day.........Supergrass with "In It For the Money"

This is another one of those bands that I've only heard a few tracks from, but can tell that they are the real deal. Supergrass has a great sound, and this song is one of my favorites that I've heard from them. Just great. A very short song, clocking in at just over 2 minutes, but it packs a punch in those 2 minutes. Check it out.....

Song of the day.........Twisted Sister with "We're Not Gonna Take It"

Why Twisted Sister........I say why not Twisted Sister? That's pretty much all I've got for this song of the day honestly.

Song of the day......... Eve 6 with "Inside Out"

I remember hearing this song all the time in High School. It was a bit overplayed........ These guys had some good tracks though. I remember seeing them at the Fillmore in Denver a few years ago, and they played a great show........

Song of the day........Brad with "Yes, You Are"

I can't say enough about this band "Brad." Just a great band. Today's track is off of their album "Welcome To Discovery Park," which is my favorite album by Brad. "Yes, You Are" is one of the albums closing tracks, and with good reason. It just starts out as this mellow piano ballad, and gradually builds with a guitar solo driven, all out rocking outro. Just another great track from these guys.

Song of the day............Blink 182 with "Feeling This"

I wouldn't go see them live again, but I have respect for what they did musically. There are a few really good Blink 182 songs. This is one of them. I really like how this song sounds. This live version doesn't highlight necessarily some of the vocal harmonies that are going on in this song, but if you listen to the album version the last 20-30 seconds is really well done vocally.

Their live show is a mix of stand-up with their music, and the stand-up quite frankly begins to really grate on you after a while. A fan of their tunes though.

Song of the day........Trans Siberian Orchestra with "Moonlight and Madness"

Today's song of the day is from TSO. One of my families favorite artists. This track is "Moonlight and Madness" and is off of their "Night Castle" album. Such a great group of people in this band. We've had the pleasure of meeting these guys, and they are all just great people first, and amazing musicians second.
