I love rock. I also loved the original Now Playing #music thread. But then I wake up and find Britney Spears first thing in the morning. I quit.


This space on the other hand will be a curated list of all the invited members' musical tastes. Go ahead and explore. Make mistakes (I'll personally clean them up). You are here because you have good taste (occasionally).

The thread name is a derivative of the movie The Boat That Rocked. It is glorious. Period.



Rules

You are invited. We like you. You can post anything as long as

1. You don't post it for the sake of posting it.

2. You don't share it because you used to think that this song was awesome.

3. You share it because you love it.

4. You share it because it confounds you.

5. You share it because it drives you mad

6. You share it because you just found the damn thing and you just need the world to listen to it.


I know that posting descriptions about the songs and such are messy. Don't do it. Just make sure that you post videos from Youtube, unless of course you can't find it anywhere else.


Though I would like it if you could tag the emotions/genre in the post. Makes its easier to categorize it in a few weeks.


1. If you post Britney Spears, you are out.

2. If you say you don't like The Beatles, you are out.

3. If you have an opinion that includes you saying that Rock is not God, God save you.


Have fun and keep rocking!

If you ever felt the need to know why God made rock


I really think you're groovy

Let's go out to a movie

What do you say, now, Elenore, can we?


Tonight, let's take a tour of B.B. King.

They slashed it in 70's Dream On ---- Aerosmith

Sing with me, sing for the year....Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear.....Sing with me, just for today .....




Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,

Smiles awake you when you rise;

Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,

And I will sing a lullaby,

Rock them, rock them, lullaby.


Care is heavy, therefore sleep you,

You are care, and care must keep you;

Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,

And I will sing a lullaby,

Rock them, rock them, lullaby.

Written and recorded by Bob Dylan this is Jimi Hendrix's cover for the same song.


Freddie Mercury (born Farrokh Bulsara; Gujarati; Pharōkh Balsārā‌)


It was inspired by Lennon's memories of playing in the garden of a Salvation Army house named "Strawberry Field" near his childhood home.

I am hooked to this song because ~ Nothing is real~

Loved the bass and obviously Mr. Clapton 😃
