Now that Led Zeppelin has been crowned champion, it eagerly awaits the opportunity to defend its title. Enter Stevie Wonder and Paul Simon. Stevie goes for the series win this weekend. Listen here and vote by commenting before 8pm Tuesday (EST).

Stunned by my score on thunderstruck… i guess it’s just overplayed and harder to listen to when not at a game or out drinking.
Disorder (Joy Division) 5
The Story of My Life (Velvet Underground) 6
Adrock, I respect that sentiment. Some songs have more power with mood enhancers, and environment.

8 : 8.3
With Paul looking he’s in trouble, I’m a little bummed we didn’t get to hear Obvious Child. The lyrics on Graceland continue to be perfect. Unfortunately, this is one of Stevie’s finest.

Liked Squeeze Box more than I thought I would. Unfortunately, I can’t dissociate Thunderstruck from business school ice hockey practices in the Whale. Which were awesome.
