It's interesting that two of the trendsetters have been cover songs.

Classic -
Epic - BaBa O'reilly ( also known as teenage wasteland)- The Who 2.9 Arena - Trendsetter - Smells Like Teen Spirit- Nirvana- 1.2 Love Song - One-Hit Wonder - Party - Crossover - Cover - Anti-Establishment - This song just rocks. Period. You can be anywhere this song is playing and not see someone playing air guitar. One of the most recognizable guitar riffs ever. |

There are two artists that I am just shocked that they haven't been picked yet.

When I first heard this song I was just shocked. I had never heard something so completely in-your-face and raw (yes, I was raised on white classic rock). It opened my eyes to the mistrust and anger felt by many memebers of the black community toward the police (clueless was I). My memory is fuzzy, but it seems like I heard this around the time of the LA Riots. In any event, I was in my college years for both. My pick is the anti-establishment anthem Fuck Tha Police by N.W.A.
Classic - Stairway to Heaven, Led Zeppelin 1-1 Epic - Arena - Trendsetter - Love Song - One-Hit Wonder - Party - Crossover - Cover - Anti-Establishment - Fuck Tha Police, N.W.A. 2-10

By the time -------- came out the alternative rock and gangsta rap were in full swing and the environment was more receptive than it had been when Fuck Tha Police came out.

If a cover can't be a trendsetter, what about something like Rapper's Delight that uses extensive sampling? I don't see how something has to be unique or even original to start a trend.

Fuck Tha Police got NO airplay on the radio or MTV. It was completely underground. It had the word Fuck in the title and if you google it is still listed as F--- Tha Police in many instances. The other song was covered by Kurt Loder every day for like three months.

Trends don't check with artists to find out if they wrote the song themselves.

There is no freaking way I am going to pass up the chance to have both Freebird and Stairway on my team. The pairing is so freaking sublime that I might have to go build a bong in shop real quick just so I can get high off of this recycled office paper.
So yes, I am picking Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd as my epic song. Because it is so effing epic. I have a better arena song for the down the line. Plus the extended jam is so great. Note: They also have a killer Behind the Music. Classic - Stairway to Heaven, Led Zeppelin (1-1) Epic - Freebird, Lynyrd Skynyrd (3-1) Arena - Trendsetter - Love Song - One-Hit Wonder - Party - Crossover - Cover - Anti-Establishment - Fuck Tha Police, N.W.A. (2-10)

Fair point.. the more I think about it, the less the covers as trendsetters bothers me... it seems unnatural, but I can't argue agaisnt any of those being trendsetters.

Classic -Foxy Lady- Jimi Hendrix- 3.2
Epic - BaBa O'reilly ( also known as teenage wasteland)- The Who 2.9 Arena - Trendsetter - Smells Like Teen Spirit- Nirvana- 1.2 Love Song - One-Hit Wonder - Party - Crossover - Cover - Anti-Establishment - Most of Classic song's selected so far can be put in a similar catergory, I wanted to find something that rocks a little more but has withstood th test of time. I waffled back and forth between a few different picks but I didn't think I would get another shot at Jimi. |

Shit - I was really hoping Hendrix lasted till my pick. I would have gone with All Along the Watchtower as the cover, IMO, or Hey Joe.

We'll continue the draft over evenings/weekends, although of course we'll expect longer delays between picks.
Please PM me a few picks if you're not going to be checking in outside of work hours.
