Iron Heart Forum Music League

[Steve]

yeah, sorry about that @Alex

[goosehd]

In a period of the 80’s that’s about all you heard on the radio. The Church, Cure, Smiths, Devo, New Order…

[Matt]

I fail to see the problem.

[Nik]

@Matt said in Iron Heart Forum Music League:

I fail

[Nik]

This looks fun I'm not on Spotify but enjoy folks

[mclaincausey]

Yeah @Nik that was an issue for me on the first league I did but I ultimately relented and got a free account. I have to do my “research” elsewhere and then find the songs in Spotify and grab the links there but you can participate without paying anything but privacy.

[goosehd]

@Nik I went with the free account also...

[Matt]

I love Spotify. We have the family account and it’s paid for ten times over every month. Admittedly I turn a blind eye to their questionable business practices but what are you gonna do?

[SKT]

^ this is where we ended up. Family account too practical to quit.

[Matt]

Yeah. The girls listen to podcasts non stop and they don’t need a data plan on their phones to use it. Still holding out on that.

[mclaincausey]

Similarly, I have a family bundle for Apple so use Apple Music... Which I have found I actually love. We have a couple of Atmos-capable speakers, so the Spatial Audio is cool on those, and the high fi is appreciated wherever we are listening. They also have a cool lyric feature that they have exclusively for a few years.

I'm sure Spotify is great as well but I am surprised by how much I enjoy Apple, even if it slightly complicates participating in this game.

When each round completes, I will update here and include a link to the playlist so that non-participants can enjoy the fun. I expect some really great playlists out of this crew.

[jerkules]

Thanks for organising @mclaincausey id never seen one of these. I can tell it’s gonna be fun as there’s already lots of overlap in terms of musical tastes between forum members, and it’s a great way to discover new music from similarly minded people

Jesus H - that Sturgil track sounds exactly like what id imagine George Jones would sound like covering Nirvana....

[Matt]

How do we vote?

I forgot about 1000 Homo DJs! I just bought Ministry tickets yesterday. I saw them in 92. I hope they have walker access for my old ass.

[endo]

Some submissions are too obvious - when Debbie sings „Den(n)is, I love you“. Hey, who could that be … ?

[Matt]

Hehe.

[Mizmazzle]

@matt Ministry is the shit!! They playing down there in NM? Jorgensen probably gonna need a walker more than you!!

Playlist for week 1: covers. I look forward to listening and then passing judgement

[Mizmazzle]

@mclaincausey so we get 12 votes for each round? We can use as many on one song as we want?

[Matt]

Guys I seriously don’t know how to vote. WTF
