Just a little too stupid. 2/10

Next nominee is the J.B.'s. Best known for backing James Brown on some of his '70s hits, they had a few jams of their own.

Not a big Gabriel fan, really. 6/10

Next nominee, disco diva Chaka Khan. Former lead singer of Rufus. In fact there's some confusion whether this induction will also celebrate her Rufus years or just her solo stuff. Hopefully just solo. She should get a second induction with Rufus if it came to that.

In a perfect world, this would be the ultimate feminist anthem, and not that awful, "I Will Survive."

Somewhat repetitive, but hey, it's pop/r&b type stuff, so 7/10 because a good beat to it

here's a band I learned about approximately 10 minutes ago. and I have an album of theirs on my itunes :v:

This is giving me a very Arctic Monkeys/The Kooks vibe....which is an extremely good thing. The whole vibe of this song is really interesting. The beat is on point as well. It's just a tad bit generic though.

I'm going to give this a 7/10 but I am going to research them more.

For my selection, I am going to go with Kid Cudi and Up Up and Away. Big fan of not only this song but this whole album. Besides Pet Sounds, Man on the Moon is probably my second favorite album ever. It's really good rap but it also has a great message through it as well. Can't really complain about that.

relatively generic pop music. would be OK with it, but it keeps getting stuck in my head, and I dont want it to do that, so 5.5/10 :v:

You have no idea how hard I had to force myself to listen to all of that. -11/10

Though the inductees have been announced, I'll finish this up, if it takes all year.

Here is a band that was nominated and didn't make it. A critics' darling band. Los Lobos

Ouch. 3/10

Our next nominee is one of the 5 inductees for these year.... sort of. Playing you the Steve Miller Band, but they're only inducting Steve Miller. Anyway, one of my all-time favorite songs. Really helps you when you're having a bad day.

THREAD REVIVAL TIME!

I usually like steve miller, but I've never liked how the singing sounds in this one. too much in the way of flourishes on his singing... it becomes like bad vibrato in a jazz piece after a while. If you ignore that, pretty standard Steve miller, so 5/10

Have a 12 minute long song :v:

7.8/10, too many minutes. :P

Anyway, here's The Smiler's theme for your listening pleasure. Or eerie discomfort as he unnerves you with his creepiness, your forced laughter as he pumps you full of gas, then your broken tears as he carves grins onto your robots. Or something scary along those lines. :v:
