This works way more than it should. Like Metallica done in a 1950s style? How the hell?

I actually haven’t minded some U2 covers. But they’re generally a pretty boring band.
Not sure why so many people hate on U2. I’ve always found their sound unique, and I have a bunch of their stuff in my music library.
They’re just boring to me. In every aspect. Although I know a lot of the hate for them is Bono.
Probably because they forced themselves on to everyone's iPhone uninvited.

re: U2
Last album overall I enjoyed from them that they put out was Rattle and Hum, and the last studio album I enjoyed was Joshua Tree.
Couldn’t find anything I liked from their 90’s albums, and their 2000’s+ albums felt too commercial for me.

I'm of a similar mind. I like some of their first three albums and started to lose interest by "The Unforgettable Fire" when they started to get some level of popularity. I haven't really liked much of anything I've heard from them since. *shrug* Not my cuppa, but if others enjoy it, have at it.
This would be my dream project haha. But one easy starting point would be 1001 songs/albums books. I think playlists of those are available on spotify. What I wouldn't use is Billboards Year End Hot 100 lists - lots of garbage in there that doesn't stand the test of time.
She and I have discussed that publisher and how their editorial folks always defers to older things regardless of the content. They'll put something on their list and then take it off a few years later to put something new on rather than have the balls to drop some of the cheese from the '68-'72 era.
The ask was also for personal ones - stuff I like or thought was influential to music I enjoy. Even the Trouser Press who I often enjoy for their takes doesn't always agree with my taste and I know a bunch of music reviews of things that I still enjoy to this day conjure up images of kicking the writer right in the plums whenever I read them that approach best of lists with caution.

"Eric Cartman?"
Always been a big Deep Purple fan (Ian Gillian with the incredible pipes), but Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow - back in the MTV days - “Street of Dreams” was a big favorite.
Also, check out the lyrics to” Knocking at Your Back Door”, from Deep Purple.
Scandalous.

Well that’s definitely one way to make sure nobody ever wants to work with you again
