Yeah the Doors had great songs and long shit songs, like every band.

The Beatles had long shit songs, Led Zeppelin, Kanye, Gustav Mahler...

Number ... Nine?

I'm not a White Album fan, lots of self indulgent stuff.

Lol fair enough, you've found the one Beatles song worth skipping

[-] eestileib 1 points 1 day ago

I sang Beatles songs to my kids as their lullabies and in parts with them today, I consider them the greatest band of all time, and they still had clinkers.

"For the Benefit of Mister Kite" is also kinda meh.

You fucking what mate?

K & H will assure the production will be second to none, but you are not invited

And that means you will never see Henry the Horse dance the waltz

That's ok, I can hang out in Strawberry Fields forever.

Kanye didn't have great songs.

Sadly, he did have a few great songs on albums ~3-5ish.

I haven't heard them. When i asked someone years ago I heard some fundamentally structurally okay but musically unsophisticated poetically sloppy high-school-wank pablum.

I'm going strictly by the performance in Block Party, which was pretty fucking awesome.

So a song worked well as part of a show, but is it a good song as a stand-alone music?

Yeah I didn't really understand what he was saying half the time but I was pumped.

Was going to write a list but I'm too lazy so I'll just go with the first one that comes to mind: all falls down.
