Polls

Well, our latest polls are closed. Time flies when you're having fun . And by having fun I mean participating in GnR related polls. Looks like we were undecided about which Axl is preferred with a three way tie between skinny gutter Axl, Paradise Axl (take him anyway we can get him), and no Axl at all. I have to say I voted paradise Axl. While I prefer the skinny Axl (lean and mean), I couldn't bring myself to vote against the new plumper Axl. I guess I liked that he looked like he was eating solid foods and not just using drugs and drinking, it was also nice that didn't look he had a tape worm skimming off fifty percent of the calories he did eat. I couldn't vote against a guy who fought his way out of a white trash past and into a fake Caribbean future, mon. I have to say in the specific picture I posted I was getting mixed signals. As pointed out by KVB he's wearing a Maple Leafs jersey at the same he's going Rastafarian on us. I guess sometimes it's just better not to ask.

Also wanted to point out some of the new SP additions. Firstly I wanted to show that I do actually know a few songs with a female singer, "Oh yes it's lady's night and the feelings right" so I put some of those tracks up. Also put up "Our Bovine Public" by The Cribs which is one of my recent favorite tracks. I like the song itself, but it's even better if the rumors about the meaning of the song are true. The rumors are that the song is directed at a band called The Pigeon Detectives who started getting famous (UK famous) by using Cribs covers on stage. Key lyric (As I hear it, but have seen posted on the web differently, but mine makes more sense. I listened closely with headphones and I think he says) "cos we spent too much time doing groundwork to be ground into the dirt by those who'd never exist without being generic". If I got that right, that's a pretty good zing. Even if that's not the exact lyric the song is still a pretty good slap to the face of The Pigeon Detectives. Also I've always like "Black Metallic" it's one of those songs I'd wanted to add for a while and would always forget to put on.

Anyways, comments about the SPs are always welcome whether you like/dislike the songs or have requests, etc... I am also on the lookout for the next poll question, so if you see a potential poll feel free to pass that along as well.
