Be a Whacky DJ (formerly SONG vs. SONG)

John Cougar Lunchbucket Dec 31 2008 08:32 AM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Mar 03 2009 10:32 AM

Here are the rules: I put up an initial battle of two songs. You choose the winner of those two, and one new challenger song. Next guy chooses the winner of those two and puts it against his new entry, and so on. Please try not to re-enter previously vanquished songs, at least for awhile, and at least try to keep from getting too obscure so everyone can play. We can start a spinoff thread for discussion and videos, etc. --let;s keep this thread moving. By next Dec. 31 we should have crowned the Greatest Song of All-Time, or at least be on our way. Got it? I'll start. Dixie Chicken (Little Feat) v. My Old School (Steely Dan) Go!

I Think I Love You? As I've said many times, I'm musically unhip, so forgive my ignorance. But are we talking about a David Cassidy song here? Or is there a cover version? Or a different song entirely but with the same title?

But I interviewed Joe Perry back when he was doing his solo shows -- which I liked a lot -- and he played Nassau Community College. As you can see, I was 18 and terrifed about interviewing a really famous person for the first time. Joe, also as you can see, was somewhat high and very bored with my interview, which consisted mostly of me trying to impress Joe by showing him how much I knew about his solo albums. And, you can't tell, but he was wearing really furry boots. Alas, he humored me for a while and signed my albums. And I was thrilled. Excellent!
