sufur 12 Stan Rogers - "Barrett's Privateers" singalong with your favorite beer



This song is ****ing awesome. I'd never heard it before but I can definitely see myself in a bar with a great drink just singing my ass off. Well done, sufur. This is, imo, the 2nd best song someone submitted that I'd never heard.

Re: Loosekanen's Trololollapalooza REVEAL

A note on this category. I've made a career the last eight+ years singing the US National Anthem and I am biased toward certain versions and certain ways it's done.

Re: Loosekanen's Trololollapalooza REVEAL

eyebooger 12 2010 Olympics "Oh Canada" Impromptu @ Curling Final


But the only entry that sent in a non US anthem ships it. This was so raw. So unprepared. It's certainly not the best musically, just the most genuine. It really got to me.

Lots of non US anthem selections would have shipped it. Any of the Edmonton pregame "Oh Canadas" would have shipped it for sure.

Anthem starts at 2:27:30 since the embed doesn't work.

Re: Loosekanen's Trololollapalooza REVEAL

I felt I was pretty liberal with the scoring on this one. Parody is a broad term. That said, the bottom one I didn't understand and I didn't feel like second to last was a parody. It felt like a serious cover.
