1 songs which I am not particularly fond of but I love Weird Al's parody of them:
02 02 Coolio featuring L.V. - Gangsta's Paradise (1)

What is the () number at the end for?

 

[Channel98]

The numbers in parentheses represent each song's peak position on the Hot 100 – not to be confused with the southern Front Range of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. That is the Pike's Peak position. (Ain't I clever?)

15 15 Paula Cole - I Don’t Want to Wait
08 07 Chumbawamba - Tubthumping

This song I can't decide if I like it or not. I loved the original. When I first heard this in 1997 I thought the only lyric he changed was "English Rose" and I thought he was kind of cheap and sleasy singing this at her funeral. A couple years ago I realized he changed a lot of lyrics. So the status of the song has been upgraded to neutral.

08 07 Chumbawamba - Tubthumping - I like to listen while having a lager drink

At some point I have always wanted to:

1. Have a wiskey drink
2. Have a vodka drink
3. Have a lager drink
4. Have a cider drink

What has stopped me is #3 as I don't really like beer.

08 07 Chumbawamba - Tubthumping - I like to listen while having a lager drink

I like to listen when I'm having a whisky drink.

I like to listen to it while I'm having a screwdriver sans vodka

What has stopped me is #3 as I don't really like beer.

When I was getting divorced and had to crash at a friend's place, I adopted his post-workday routine. A Bombay Sapphire martini kicked it off, followed by a beer to accompany the making-dinner process, and then a glass or 2 of wine during dinner, and finally an after-meal scotch. It was quite hardcore for the work-week, but helped me forget my shitty predicament, so...
