It has monkeys, midgets, doggie style, and the redhead that would be my second wife if I were to ever live through the first one.<\/p>\n<p>#2)  Brimful of Asha, Coronership<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lM7H0ooV_o8\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nSomehow I missed this song when it came out.  I think I was in Bosnia.  But whoever wants to argue that you don&#8217;t need a bosom for a pillow really needs to check their selves.<\/p>\n<p>#3) Sail, AWOL Nation<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tgIqecROs5M\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nI don&#8217;t know man, something about this song makes me want to just run through a brick wall.  The Vikings trailer with it made me want to take to the seas and invade Angleland.<\/p>\n<p>#4) Run Around, Blues Traveller<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ousaiByU1ko?list=PLUVt_imQ5R04566W83b_lLZoy7Rq91OdX\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nYou could argue which song of Blues Traveller to use here, but you have to include them.  John Popper had a heart attack in a hot tub during a threesome.  That means you make every list forever.<\/p>\n<p>#5) What&#8217;s up, 4 Non Blondes<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6NXnxTNIWkc\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nI find this singer chick intriguing.  I honestly can&#8217;t tell if I think she&#8217;s hot, or just a dirty hippie.  But the song is straight $$$.<\/p>\n<p>#6) Stubborn Love, Lumineers<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/U6gKOKO484w\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nThis may be sneaky my favorite non-Irish song of all time.  Probably my favorite band on regular radio right now too.<\/p>\n<p>#7) Johnny I Hardly Knew Ya, Dropkick Murphys<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Khmsmv_dBsM\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nYou didn&#8217;t for a second think this would be Irish free did you?  I cut it down to only 2 Irish songs, but this is another one that gets me fired up.<\/p>\n<p>#8) The Impression That I Get, Mighty Mighty Boston&#8217;s<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NIGMUAMevH0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nThe pride of Beantown, it always amazed me these guys didn&#8217;t become bigger than they are.  This song is straight fire.<\/p>\n<p>#9) Steady as She Goes, The Raconteurs<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zkD-xIUYPq8\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nThis song isn&#8217;t much on lyrics, but the sound is just kick ass.<\/p>\n<p>10) Within a Mile of Home, Flogging Molly<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kWQUGh_VE_E\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nEvery workout playlist should end with this one.  If you don&#8217;t listen to it, you are probably a communist.<\/p>\n<p>So anyway, those are the top 10 underrated songs of all time.<\/p>\n<p>And if you disagree, you are probably a member of ISIS.<\/p>\n<p>In truth, just wanted to check in, since some folks had emailed to make sure I was good.  I am, all is great in my life.  Jonn owns and runs the best military blog on the internet, so I try not to screw it up with my jackassery too often, but did want to check in with y&#8217;all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I keep hearing that a gaggle of boobs is saying they scared me away from TAH, &hellip; <a title=\"Proof of life\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=65880\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Proof of life<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":148,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-65880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/148"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=65880"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65880\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=65880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=65880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=65880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
