Some of you might know me as the infamous music thread creator! But I must admit I've refrained from creating any for quite a long time and I can stand it no longer!

Ok I will start off for now, the first person to comment just has to rate their opinion on the song out of 10 (6/10), then post your own song.

Well I'll give it a 0/10, as 'This video contains content from EMI, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds'

Well, 'Weather with You' gets an 8/10 from me. I think it's my favourite Crowded House song.

The video above I guess I could give a 6/10. Not really my thing; it's a bit overblown.

This song grew on me after I listened to it a second time:

Unfortunately, the cheering obscures part of the beginning guitar riff. This is a clearer (but non-embeddable) version.

7/10. I don't mind Talking Heads at all, though I would rank And She Was higher.

Yeuch!

Okay-ish backing, repetitive melody and ugly singing. 5/10. Punic's one is good though; maybe a tad too nationalist for my tastes... 7/10.

Sonic Youth aren't not in everyones taste

, but I like the fact that they can make a new tune in their songs, a lot like Radiohead do.

I'm sure show tunes are to some people's tastes, but not really to mine. 5/10

Not my taste, but the tune is soothing, but not a great fan of the lyrics. For me it made it bad. 5.5/10?

Btw, anyone care if I do Eurovision? I ask because I know a few who absolutely hate it lol.

7/10, although I wouldn't put it in my iTunes collection I like it, not sure what it is though, World Music?

(It's a bit instrumental for 2 mins I think but it's a brilliant tune from a brilliant band)

5/10, this is in no way because it's in a different language by the way. I just don't I like it that much, although it is bearable.

5/10 was just for me or the audio was, even in maximum,incredibly low?
