What are your favorite songs that begin with the letter A and were released on or after January 1, 2000? See rules in OP [Final Poll Added]

Alejandro - Lady Gaga (2009)
Almost Like The Blues - Leonard Cohen (2014)
Already Naked - Blondie (2017)
Altered Boy - Jimmy Buffett (2002)
As Good As I Once Was - Toby Keith (2005)

Old age Leonard Cohen was better than young and middle aged Cohen, and Almost Like The Blues is IMHO top 10 Cohen. This is my top song of the five on my list.

Maybe the main one was ‘mustard.’

Look at the post immediately above yours. :wink:

I thought songs could be nominated more than once?

Nope, once is enough.

Have another go if you’d like.

mmm

ETA: Actually, choose 3 more. The Blondie and the Lady Gaga have also already been submitted.

mmm

After All - Roxette (2011)
Almost Like The Blues - Leonard Cohen (2014)
Altered Boy - Jimmy Buffett (2002)
Anyone - Roxette (2009)
Aquarius - Aqua (2000)

Lightning Bolt - Air Conditioning - 2019
Try to think of them as Slayer deciding to play free jazz.

Lightning Bolt - Assassins - 2003
Man, in their early days, maybe think of them as a free jazz duo that wanted to sound like Devo, but ended up sounding like Devo covering Slayer. Seriously, my only problem with these guys is they’re always this intense. I’ve gotta be in the right mood to consume two albums straight.

The Black Angels - Always Maybe - 2013

Sonic Boom - All Things Being Equal - 2014
If it would be possible to wear out a YouTube video, I would have worn this one out. I might be nearing 1% of its views. I honestly don’t know where I can get it elsewhere. It’s like a wonderful robe fresh out of the dryer that I can wrap myself in. In fact, gotta listen to it twice in a row tonight.

St Vincent - Los Ageless - 2017
So many good guitar and synth riffs.

Shit. That’s five. I’ll stop there.

Hey all, the final poll for the numerals and symbols category is now up (and will close in 48 hours).

LInk

mmm

Assassin - Cory Wong (2021)
A B - Rachel Flowers (2020)

We have room for 11 more entries.

Either way I will close this tomorrow (Sunday) morning and post the first polls

mmm

Does this mean we can do more than the 5? If so, add animal by Aurora back in.

Sure, why not. Everyone can have two more.

I’ll add Animal and still cap it at 100.

Room for 10 more.

mmm

Oooo!

King Gizzard and the Wizard Lizard - Automation - 2020

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Anthem for No State, Pt III - 2017
(pt I and II build up to it nicely, but this is my favorite part)

All About Us - t.A.T.u. (2005)
Apocalyptic – Halestorm (2015)

Oh this is good, I would have included it if I’d remembered it.

Hehehe, did you go see them when they came through recently? I was able to get a standing ticket. :slight_smile:

Ooh, then also
Anyway You Wanna Love Meg Myers, 2020

We saw them in 2022! Fantastic show. I will be seeing them again. (also seeing Swans this year, if ya like them)

Hehehe, yeah, the Halloween show was what I meant by “recently”, we were at the same show. :+1:

And dang, I didn’t know Swans were touring! Thanks for the heads up!

Watch out both of you, I’ve heard that Swans concerts inevitably lead to hearing loss… :laughing:
