It was bound to happen sooner or later, but I reached a five-star song on shuffle that I’m demoting after having listened to it again.  Not to say “Solid” isn’t a good song,  but I definitely gave it a bonus star just because I wanted to remember it as the theme song to the television series Undeclared.  If you haven’t seen the show, Undeclared is a Judd Apatow produced comedy set during the freshman year of college.  There are only a handful of episodes so it’s definitely worth cruising through on a binge weekend.  Plus it features Seth Rogen before he was super popular, and Charlie Hunnam before he was a Son of Anarchy.

 

The full song is fine, but there’s no way it’s five-star material.  I’m tempted to knocked it back down to three, but I’ll probably split the difference and give it a four at least for a probationary period.

One thought on “November Five-Star Shuffle: “Solid”

  1. Never got into Dandy Warhols and (sadly) only ever saw a couple of episodes of Undeclared. Still working my way through Freaks & Geeks, but it will be next.
