Things are getting too soft here, so time for anduramones1234 to bring you some hardcore thrash! Also, does anybody here who speaks Portuguese if Spotify put the words nada and mais in the song title in the wrong order or are my other sources wrong?

483. Ratos de Porão - Sentir ódio e nada mais
Year: 1987
Album: Cada dia mais sujo e agressivo
Biggest Fan: andyramones1234 (#92)

Ratos de Porão - Sentir ódio e nada mais: 7
I'm not sure if it will stick in the mind, but it does have the machine gun guitar riff, furious drumming and Lemmy-in-Portugese vocals you'd hope for in something like this, so all is well.

Today a song from my list and one of which I’m actually surprised to learn I’m the only voter. It’s one of the most sampled songs in hip-hop, so where are all my hip-hop heads at? Critics also appreciate it, giving it a ranking of 2126 on AM.

Incredible Bongo Band - Apache: 9

Apache of course became famous thanks to the band The Shadows, even if they didn't write it. That version I have even higher on my list than this one, despite being more straightforward. I can't help it, I am unable to resist anything that sounds like a sweltering western track by Morricone (and The Shadows' song actually predates Morricone's first western contribution!). The version by Incredible Bongo Band is another beast though. It sometimes hints at the western genre, especially when a Spanish guitar (?) takes over for a minute, but otherwise this is closer to some African dance, albeit with some soaring organs here and there. The extended bongo freestyle is what makes the song famous and a sample favorite and it is great. I think it works so well because it is an actual break. It's just very satisfying once the epic music eventually break out of it again. This song is just plain fun!

Here’s another ranked song, this time at #2659. It’s also the third metal song in four days. The difference is that Otisredding went with one of the most controversial songs out there; one which has actually been removed from the original album line-up since its release. On Spotify you can only find a live version, so you need to go to YouTube for the original recording. Can you handle it?

486. Body Count – Cop Killer
Year: 1992
Album: Body Count
Biggest Fan: Otisredding (#342)

Cop Killer is a 10, I don't care what anybody says. Whether you advocate for exactly its message or not, I DO support serious police reform (seriously, we need to fix a lot of stuff here in the USA) and the song is classic rap-metal.

Seriously though, metal is such a rare genre on this forum and in this game, so how can we get four songs from that genre in five days. Today whuntva adds to the onslaught.

Body Count – Cop Killer: 8
I'm of two minds about this politically, but I definitely get where they come from and the power of the song is undeniable.

Alter Bridge – Isolation: 6
I do kind of like these types of big guitar songs, but this one, while fine, doesn't stand out to me in particular.

A metallic sound sound, bound to be unpleasant to some ears, although in the end the singer just wants to hang out with Joe.

As some might have noticed, my whole schtick when I get a song from Live in Phoenix’ list is to check if the artist has ever played live in Phoenix. I have some spectacular news today, though: the band of the day actually will play live in Phoenix this year, at Chase Field! So if you like the song get your tickets!

It's from the credits sequence if I'm correct, so a bit of a wrap-up of the whole feel of the movie.

John Williams – Harry’s Wondrous World: 7
As a wrap-up this is close to a medley of the film's score, which has the advantage of having many parts, but the disadvantage of not having them in full bloom. I have Hedwig's Theme on my own list and that makes up the first few second of this. Nice to have, but give me the individual tracks.
