"Download of the Day"

Asher tried to do this a while ago and it clearly rocked ass, i thought it was a good idea so i'm going to try and revive it.
I want a group of people who can recommend one track a day which hopefully people will listen to and pass judgement on. The idea is just to introduce people to new music.
I'm planning on starting Monday with one track for each day of the week and i'll revolve the days around the people involved.

I love him! I was going to recommend 14th street but I chose something a little darker instead in the form of my Brand New song.

Eminem - 8 Mile
I never really liked Eminem, although he does have some quality songs and he is brilliant at what he does. This isn't going to convert me I'm afraid but if you like Eminem it's sure to please.
I don't like the way songs he's produced always sound strangely similar.

Agreed, i was hoping against it

Eminem - 8 Mile
I dont know really, it never grabbed me and lacked the humour or sense of fun that his singles tend to have, still infinitely more listenable to 90% of other rap records.

I tend to download albums rather then singular songs to be honest.

Although I did actually get a few albums based on the reccomendations in this thread, so at least some good came out of it I guess.

Todays song is not one of my favourite Eminem songs, mainly because without seeing the film the lyrics won't mean jack. His flows still there though and his rhyming skills are clear so it's not a bad song at all.

I highly recommend 'Jay Z feat Eminem - Renegade' if you like that song.

Eminem - 8 Mile
Quite like the song. To be honest, never been a huge fan of his, but I must admit he's great at what he does.

More people need to download as well as recommending, there was only about 3 people downloading and commenting before.

I think i'll go with either

Rufus Wainwright - I dont Know What It Is

or

Stevie Wonder - Superstition

>Rise Against - Dancing For Rain - (emitime)

Nooooooooooooooo
