What is the coolest song of all time?

[Nickyboy]

Of course, this will change like the wind. But, right now, what is the coolest song you know? I have two today. Post 'em if you got 'em!

I Can't stand It- the Velvet Underground

REM- Superman

Great topic!

I could have thought about it for six weeks straight and still never come up with your two picks, fine as they are, Nick.

And it will be one or two different ones tomorrow! That's what so fun about this topic.

Cool? Like ?
Or "cool" like "Wow, cool song, man!"

You SHOULD be working through your 32 discs of Woodstock! Or are you gonna do it the exact time of the show on 50th anniversary

BTW Sirius XM Deep Tracks is playing Woodstock stuff (including things off the Rhino set) along with interviews all week

38 discs, but who's counting?

Music has fallen by the wayside for the moment. I'm swamped this week at work as we are in the midst of a major revamp of our office systems. I may post about it in The Lounge. Meanwhile, the box just stares at me from the safety of my credenza.

I heard this song on the radio today, and thought to myself: "Is this not the coolest song of all time?"

...and, for a moment, it was.

DM was the loudest concert I've ever been to. And they are cool.

For Mrs. Ojai, who was my secretary long ago and has come out of retirement to save my tail.

The Ink Spots were smooth. I sometimes confuse them with the Mills Brothers.

Here's another entry for smooth and cool:

OK, James Brown definitely goes to eleven on the coolmeter.

I have never in my life been cool enough to appreciate this song.
