    Default Listen to a Song Challenge Thread

    I propose a thread to get us sharing music.

    Here's what I suggest. I'll be 'it' first. Someone can challenge me to listen to a song, which should be available on youtube or Spotify or other accessible source. For the first song I'm challenged to listen to, I'm expected to come back and post a few comments on it.

    Then, anyone else (first poster gets priority) can challenge my challenger to listen to a song. And so on.

    E.g. I'm 'it' first. So, someone called EaglesFan75 may challenge me to listen to 'Her Town Too' by James Taylor. I'll listen to it, and come back and give my thoughts.

    Then 'Desperado1981' might challenge EaglesFan75 to listen to 'Wild Life' by Wings. EaglesFan75 will listen to it, come back and post his/her thoughts. Then perhaps I come back, and challenge Desperado1981 to listen to 'Language' by Dave Dobbyn. And so on.

    This wouldn't work if the songs were too obvious, e.g. if someone was challenged to listen to 'Hotel California'.

    It may not work at all. but, if this thread doesn't take off, it'll fall down the listings and disappear forever, not much harm done.

    Anyone?

    Would it work if it was a general challenge rather than just one person? Eg you would name a song and then anyone could listen and make comments. Allow for multiple people making comments but only the first one can set a new challenge - or whatever rules you care to invent.

    It might do? Do you want to name a song?

    I'll name a song for anyone to listen to, Disco Sucks, by Chuck Wagon and The Wheels. Way off the charts, but it's a keeper, for anyone that despised Disco.
    P.S. It is on Youtube.

    Thanks DJ. I've listened to it and think it's a great country novelty song. I like the actual disco outro, the smashing, and the humorous lyrics (e.g. disco dancing stolen from country swing.) But what is happening at the end with all the liquid sounds?

    If we were playing the original rules, then now anyone can challenge DJ to listen to a song.
