Heart of the Congos - The Congos

Day 01 - My favorite song

johanlefourbe's rating:

7.8

Natty Dread - Bob Marley & The Wailers

Day 02 - The first song I heard

Note: I was born at home and right after I "came" out, my father put this LP on. He hoped I won't let my mother cry when I would grow up... That didn't work so well but Reggae has thus been part of my life from the very 1st moment (literally).

Katamari Fortissimo Damashii - Various Artists

Day 03 - A weird (funny) song

Note: Actually, it is not really the song which is weird but the combination of the music with the videoclip.

8.3

Suzanne Vega - Suzanne Vega

Day 04 - A song that makes me sad

323

7.3

Antichrist Superstar - Marilyn Manson

Day 05 - A song that reminds me of someone

Note: Actually, I'm not a big fan of Marilyn Manson but back in France, I had a gothic (girl)friend who was a huge fan of him.

6.7

Performance and Cocktails - Stereophonics

Day 06 - A song that reminds me of somewhere

Note: I spent a year in England and one of my roommates, a Spanish guy, had this CD. This songs always reminds me of the place where we lived.

Progress - Take That

Day 07 - A song that reminds me of a certain event

Note: Actually, I'm not a big fan of Robbie Williams and Take That but I went with my wife to see them in concert in Amsterdam and we had a great time. The second video is some footage from the actual concert.

The Essential Bob Dylan - Bob Dylan

Strange Days - The Doors

Day 09 - A song that I know all the words to

Inna Heights - Buju Banton

Day 10 - My daughter's favorite song

Note: I tried to make my daughter Zoé (5 years old) listen to some good old Reggae from time to time and this song really sticked.

Daniel in the Lion's Den - Alpha & Omega

Totally Krossed Out - Kriss Kross

Day 16 - A song that I used to love but now hate

Note: When I was a kid, I thought this song was awesome. Of course, it now looks rather ridiculous. Actually, the tune is still catchy, don't you think?

johanlefourbe's rating:

Stream - Twarres

Day 21 - A song that I listen to when I'm sad

7.8

...And Justice for All - Metallica

Day 26 - My favorite song from Guitar Hero

Note: This song itself is pretty cool but it is just totally awesome to play on Guitar Hero. I finished it a couple of times in "Hard" but I usually mess it up at the end. The first time, I took me 3 months of daily training to nail it (!).

7.4

Liberation Transmission - Lostprophets

Day 27 - A song my step-son (Nick) can sing pitch perfect on Guitar Hero World Tour

Proverbial Reggae - Gladiators

Day 28 - A song that changed my music taste in some way

Note: Back then, I was interested in Reggae but, beside Bob Marley, I didn't know much about this music genre. Then, I saw those guys in concert, heard this song live and I was hooked for the rest of my life.

Fear of the Dark - Iron Maiden

Day 29 - A song from my childhood

Note: I'm maybe now a Reggae boy but as a kid I definitely had some different musical taste. When I was 12 years old and started to get interested into music, the first genre that caught my interest was actually heavy metal - hard rock. I listened to different bands and one of my favorites was Iron Maiden.

johanlefourbe's rating:

Reggae Max - Garnett Silk

Day 30 - My favorite song from the last 6 months

Note: I always loved Silk's voice but I never found his songs really impressive until I recently found this tune which just blew my mind.
