5th: The Mailbag:
Questions, Comments, Requests, Predictions & Asides

OK…You took the bait…I’ll schedule 42fish’s Neil Diamond poll next week.

Ditto. I think this is our first poll with 3 requests. I’ll schedule it next week

I second the Curve poll and am quite happy to happy to see someone requested a Cranes poll! Not only will I second the Cranes…were it required, I’d personally 3rd and 4th them.

Congratulations are in order. Salud, Prost & The best of everything! On a rather trivial side note, (though not the most ‘up front’ way of getting songs you really want played at your wedding, it worked for me): push unacceptable songs first. (In this case, tell her you’d like the b-side (Bo Diddley’s “Do The Frog”) played. When she says ‘Absolutely not!’ propose the song you really want: ‘We’re Gonna Get Married’

I gotta have ‘Faith’ in the fact there were a whole host of songs you could’ve listed in your post that just didn’t make the final cut.

Previous Requests: 2 out of 8 of 42Fish’s requests were seconded this past week. There are still 6 to go: Dion (And The Belmonts), Dr. Dre, The Drifters/Ben E King, The Coasters, Ruth Brown or Laverne Baker. If you’d really like to have a poll on any of the artists he’s requested, please second it in this thread.

7th: This Week’s Other Polls
Access them one of 3 ways: (1)Click on of the links on my signature. (2)Access them through the Café Society page. (3)Bog down the server and do a search on the Headliner The Buzzcocks, the Butthole Surfers Supplemental or the Cop Shoot Cop Additional 6@6 poll. Please Note: Each & every week, the featured poll includes the tallies from the previous week’s polls as well as a doper vote tally. The weekly headliner poll includes a list of the each artist we’ve polled and the top 6 vote-getting tracks. The supplemental poll includes hyper-links to all the closed 6@6 polls and the additional poll (when run) usually contains the SDMB chestnuts.

Lastly: 6@6 Poll Questions & Posting Guidelines
All you have to do is list your six favorite tracks from the artist in its’ corresponding thread. If you’d like to add your own liner notes or opinions, please go right ahead – I, for one, love reading them. If you specify a live version, it will be noted, but tallied with the studio version. Cover versions (performed by the artist we’re polling) are acceptable, as are duets and off-shoot projects. Segues: Certain tracks were written to be segued (connected to) an adjoining song from an album. They obviously count as one track. There are countless examples: Everything from the Abbey Road Medley to many Zappa tracks. Please try to be as accurate as possible when naming your favorite tracks.

Without further ado: The Damned Featured 6@6 Poll…

Here are my faves 6 by The Damned

  1. Problem Child (Nick Mason Produced)
  2. Smash It Up (What A Difference 2 years make in terms of sound, direction and song length)
  3. Love Song
  4. Neat Neat Neat (How fast can you sing it?)
  5. Jet Boy, Jet Girl (So much better than the NY Dolls original song, it’s barely the same song)
  6. New Rose (Produced by Nick Lowe)

P.S. There will not be a separate Captain Sensible poll, so if you’d like to include any of his work, put em in here this week.

What if you only like one song by a band? Can you vote for just that one song?

  1. New Rose
  2. Elouise
  3. Smash it up
  4. Love Song
  5. Machine Gun Etiquette
  6. Neat Neat Neat

Aside from the absolute classic New Rose, how can you ever fault a band that has a live album called Molten Lager? Even if it is fairly rubbish.

  1. Love Song
  2. New Rose
  3. Jet Boy Jet Girl
  4. Sanity Clause
  5. Smash it up
  6. Neat Neat Neat
  1. In Dulce Decorum (give 3 votes, 1 for each of my personalities)
  2. Psychomania
  3. Torture Me
  4. Grimly Fiendish (Bad Trip Mix)
  5. Is It A Dream?
  6. Dozen Girls (any version)

I don’t know if you take suggestions or not, but how about a Bad Religion poll? And Billy Bragg as well! Ani Difranco?

Thanks.

  1. New rose
  2. Plan 9 channel 7
  3. Wait for the blackout
  4. Smash it up
  5. Ignite
  6. Melody lee
  1. New Rose
  2. Smash It Up
  3. Neat Neat Neat
  4. Jet Boy Jet Girl
  5. Help!
  6. Love Song
  1. Neat Neat Neat
  2. Jet Boy/Jet Girl
  3. New Rose
  4. Stretcher Case
  5. I Feel Alright
  6. Wot (Captain Sensible)

I think that “Jet Boy/Jet Girl” was originally by a band called Elton Motello, with the backing music coming from Plastic Bertrand’s “Ca Plane Pour Moi.” I googled “New York Dolls Jet Boy lyrics” and it seems to be a different song. Of course, there’s a good chance I’m wrong.
