3004101, my picks Posted by johnbook, Sat Apr-14-18 01:05 PM
Joel McHale Mudhoney's "Touch Me I'm Sick" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nGsT_qFMBs REASON: As I've said in previous appearances from McHale, many of us in the Pacific Northwest remember McHale when he was in ALMOST LIVE, Seattle's version of SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE. The show introduced us to Bill Nye long before he became the science guy, thus I offer a song by the Seattle grunge band that should've made it further than Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains and everyone else. You can either do the first verse: "I've been bad I've been worse I'm a creep, yeah and I'm a jerk touch me I'm sick"
Or the chorus: "Come on baby, now, come with me If you don't come If you don't come If you don't come You'll die alone"
It represents the sarcasm of Seattle very well, or "old Seattle", just as things represent "old Portland". https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DTT7szdVwAAosgD.jpg
Michael Che The Young Fresh Fellows' "Young Fresh Fellows Update (Theme)" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sOrTGl0OHE REASON: The Young Fresh Fellows were the Seattle band in the 1980's many were hoping would become the next big thing for the city but back then, no one paid attention to Seattle. Nonetheless, they made tons of records and this was one of them.
Thus, this show would be represented by the 206. I know Che has no connection with Seattle but I want to make the connection since McHale is from up the I-90.
