George Elrick - I Like Bananas
Reminds me of the soundtrack to so many of the movies I remember seeing when I was a wee boy.

Editors - Sugar
Has an almost U2 vibe to it.

James Brown - Mother Popcorn
The godfather of soul puts his signature vocals and groove moves on full display.

David Lee Roth - Hot Dog and a Shake
On brand DLR rocker

The Tubes - Sushi Girl
Straight ahead rock tune, but not one of their best

Mary Coughlan - Ice Cream Man
Slow groover with an almost folkie vibe

The Mission - The Grapes of Wrath
A thoughtful ballad with a bit of a Springsteen/Meatloaf feel to it

Tony Joe White - Polk Salad Annie
Sixties style lite Rock N Roll tune

Fay Lovsky - Food Is The Enemy
Slow nightclub style tune with smokey female vocals

Yusuf / Cat Stevens - Was Dog A Doughnut
Seriously off brand tune that sounds more like something from Jan Hammer's Rock-it phase than a Cat Stevens tune.

Sting - Soul Cake
Folky tune with a little back woods groove to it.


Wow, so hard to choose. I know I'm not supposed to pick my own song submission but it is the one I like the best. However, in keeping with the spirit of the thread my vote goes to...

Editors - Sugar

^ You know you can eat more? We may choose three dishes (votes)! Tongue
(unless you decide we just have one vote, of course... which is not in our habits...)

In the interest of healthy eating this is a Single Course Meal.
One vote only. Plus, there aren't that many videos to choose from.

I make an exception from the "no vote for what I already know" rule here. I know the "Was Dog a Doughnut" thing from long, long ago. I had totally forgotten about it, and also didn't remember at all that it's by Yusuf/C.S. But it's so wonderful, thanks for reminding me of it!

Honorary mentions: Sting (also knew that one, Sting is great), Editors, Food is the Enemy (how true!)

-Editors- Sugar.......never heard of this band...very interesting ..hypnotic...reminds me of Simple Minds meet Echo and the Bunnymen
-Sting-Soul Cake....not one of my favorite things by him but I have always liked his style of singing and he is unique
-James Brown-Mother Popcorn....grew up in the 60's hearing his songs on the radio ...never heard that one      though...but it's full of fun

Yesterday I was in a more rocking mood and I could have voted for Editors, David Lee Roth or The Tubes - all three nice tracks. But two songs just grabbed me a bit more today: Mary Coughlan's Ice Cream Man (instantly familiar; or maybe I did hear it before?) and Tony Joe White's Polk Salad Annie. I'll go with the latter, first of all because I prefer salads over ice cream, and secondly this one has that inexplicable magic that makes a song work.

I've never heard Tony Joe White's Polk Salad Annie before this poll. I do know the song, sung by Elvis and Joe Dassin. LOL

I had not heard Polk Salad Annie, any version, as best I can recall. It gets my vote.

After reviewing all, the one that wins for me is Cristi's entry.  Here is my snap review of it:

Editors “Sugar”  Here we get some heaviness, I always like those kind of whangy guitars and what a great voice!  Dark, yet sultry.  Has a sense of despair in it.  Sort of an almost Middle Easter vibe to the synths and guitars during the bridge.  Well produced. I like this one a lot, Cristi.

Glad you liked it, I found out about this band when they opened for The Cure a few years ago. Pleasantly surprised, been listening to them every now and then.

Unfortunately I missed this poll but I will for sure listen to the songs, because I'm always hungry! LOL

I'll allow myself on this occasion to inform those among you who haven't read my post in the team thread, that there is a new poll, this time it is about all kind of acoustic music, incl. less-known prog bands. You are most welcome to join us! Smile
