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.

It's about picking a song you love and sharing it with other people to try and open minds and share good music. Stick to what you like not what you think eeryone else will like.
I have a feeling most people will dislike my choice, but I'm leaving it as someone may happen to like it, which is the whole point of this if you ask me. Not a case of picking something you think people will like, but something different which someone may happen to enjoy.
I mean I could recommend something else which maybe some people don't know and others do, but I'd rather go for the artist which I've very rarely heard being spoken of despite quite a lot of success.

I stick to my song. Can't wait to see how it goes down.
Yush please. Dodgy - Grassman
Gone off Past & Pending now.. :^)

If anyone wants to change their choice feel free, i'm thinking mine probably wont go down very well and as this is about trying to introduce people to stuff they might like i may yet change it.
I absolutely loathe 'Gorillaz'. So drab and uninteresting from what I remember. Still, I'll see if this new one isn't a catastrophe.
EDIT: Listened to it. The laughter at the start made me shudder. In disgust. So very bland, boring, and utterly unlistenable. I banished it from the hallowed halls of my computer inside a minute.

I'm still thinking about the 21 thing really, once we've gone through the first runthrough i was going to put it in alphabetical order.
The reason i wanted to cut off today was so once todays is over i can remove it and Crossbob or whoever is first can recommend again.
I'll add some more but i've got to limit to 21 otherwise people will be waiting forever.

Funky and schizophrenic, really like the laugh to open. The windmill bit is fantastic but i'm sure that rythym has been stolen from The Kinks Sunny Afternoon and really it's that bit i find myself waiting for. Fun, catchy song, wont be turning it off if it hear it and might just keep it on my drive.
