DAY #5 of the 30 Day Music Meme - A song you have to play loud

[shadowkat]

I don't know. I don't tend to like "loud" but I admittedly do play and listen to a lot of "loud" music. This meme is hard. Particularly if you listen to music the way I do - which is mostly as background noise, to calm my nerves and in the past to sleep to. Actually it's why I have to be careful with Classical music, and the soundtrack to the Crow, which both put me to sleep.

You already knew I was a bit eccentric, this should not come as a surprise to you.

Sisinlaw: You are a bit eccentric.
Me: Says the woman who got married in a swimming pool by the Church of Craft.

Anyhow, there are various choices here...

I'm picking the Ramones...

Watch on YouTube

Although it was admittedly tempting to pick Beethoven's Ninth in D Minor, or Tina Turner's Proud Mary. But I'm in a Ramones frame of mine lately.

The best of Queens, New York.

My selection: "Cult of Personality"

In 1988, this song was a shot across the bough of the white-dominated rock and roll establishment. Founded by Brooklyn's adopted son Vernon Reid (on guitar), Living Color's songs were always well-crafted and thought provoking. But to get the full impact, you need to play them very, very loud.

I've heard the song - which is a good choice, but don't remember or recall the band at all. Do like the song though.
