Chuckles, I love that version of Thunder Clatter. If that is "In Studio" for them, I sure wish I was in the band. That looks like a blast.

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I'll definitely check Rhye out.

Also, apparently I cheated. Time to Run came out in 2012, so that negates my favorite video. I'll think of a new one.

Favorite Video:
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IF5TfnmV0k[/youtube]
Shinedown - I'll Follow You

That gets high marks for me because my image of Brent Smith was always him in 2003. But in the last couple years he got clean, started working out and eating right and now the dude looks awesome. Nice video, love the song.

Favorite Song/Album:
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRfpZm7Sja8[/youtube]
Lorde - 400 Lux/Pure Heroine

Two runner ups came out in late 2012:
Three Days Grace - Transit of Venus
ZZ Ward - Til the Casket Drops

And another got a reissue this summer:
Ellie Goulding - Halcyon Days

Happy to see some other Lorde fans. It's a great album.

Actually this is my new favorite video of 2013. Bruce Springsteen and Glen Hansard singing Drive All Night at a concert in Ireland. They both just absolutely crush the song and the interaction between them is great. Try to watch this without smiling.

Nebs, would you like the honor of making our 2014 thread tomorrow? And do you think we should stick with our plan of advising 1 video per post?

ackypoo · Post #835 » by **ackypoo** » Mon Dec 30, 2013 5:48 pm

block videos and make people just post links.

i dont even make it into this thread because my computer at home just **** on itself.

MikeIsGood · Post #836 » by **MikeIsGood** » Mon Dec 30, 2013 6:02 pm

I think completely getting rid of videos would be extreme, but 1 video per post should really help. I'd also advise people "hide" or delete videos when they quote someone.

I think that honor should be all yours considering how much you're conducting this train. I'm doing my best to help spur growth on the Rockets board and as result, my time here is less frequent.

I do, however, think 1 video per post is ideal and I will continue to post under those guidelines. I disagree about simply putting links up since I enjoy the current format.

It's cool how this thread has evolved over the years and I suspect 2014 will be the best yet.

Yeah! I like that one but was hoping for a little more.

Per your avatar - have not listened to Tres Cabrones yet but I've liked pretty much everything from Senile Animal on.
