Searching for New Music session #9

Last time, I found a whopping 22 songs which I added to my library. Let's see if I can find more than that. Or more likely, how less of that, lol.

---

I'm tempted to add this without even listening to it because I love The Black Keys that much. But if I have to be fair about listening to bands I already dislike, I have to be fair about bands I do like.

And of course, I love it! They're The Black Keys!



In session #3, I talked about how I don't care for remixes when another song from this album came up. That song didn't make the cut, but because it's Paul McCartney I'll give another song a chance.

Good enough, I suppose. Consider this an extremely rare example of a remix getting an add.



It's okay. Not bad, but doesn't hook me enough to get an add.



Another that's not bad, but just doesn't draw me in enough. Oh well.



I love the lyrics, lol. But the song itself, doesn't quite cut it. I want to add it, but not good enough.



It has its moments, but mostly meh.



From what I gather, this is a punk band formed by Duff McKagan during his teen years that recorded seven songs in 1982 but this is them just now being released.

Very interesting... It's a shame this group of McKagan's never got recognized before, it sounds good to me!



Yawn.



Definitely not! 🤢



It's okayish. Meaning on the verge of okay. Not sure why I'm saying that, but either way...



😕



This sucks.



Not bad, but too lacking in originality.



It was leaning towards "okay", but it got better as the song went on. It gets an add.



Meh.



It has its moments but not quite enough.



Kinda boring.



Just okay, but I hear room for improvement. I'll try another.


Much better! This gets an add.



😴



Not bad, but just okay.



Lame and predictable.



A bit on the fence with this one... But after thinking about it, I guess I'm leaning more towards an add.



Yuck! I could barely listen to 30 minutes of that generic auto-tuned singing before I had to stop it. I don't care if the rest of the song was good, I'm not getting past that cookie-cutter crap.



I could really use a pick-me-up after that last awful song, lol. But this isn't it. It's boring.



Not bad, but not enough hooks.



Generic as hell. And is it just me or have these last three songs kinda sounded a little too similar? I suppose that's typical in popular music...



This one's okay. Comes close to an add, but not close enough.



Esto esta bien, pero no agregare.



Tempting to add considering the talent involved, but it's awfully cliché. Regrettably...



Meh.



Yawn.



Another yawn.



Obnoxious



I waited patiently for the first whole minute of repetitious chords and was not rewarded with a decent song.



It's okay. Better than the mediocrity that I've been running into with this session. But not good enough, I'm afraid.



Meh. Maybe I'm just desperate for an add by this point, but I'll try another.


Her style is weird and eccentric. But I kinda like it... At least there's that, but it's not enough for an add. 🤣 Hey, at least I found a better track than the last.

Right, that's enough for one session. 8 songs were added and 28 were rejected. So much for hoping I could surpass the adds from the last session, lol. As sorry of a sessions as this was, I still enjoyed it. If you've been following along, I hope you found more songs you enjoyed than I did, lol.

Thanks for joining me.
