“Cherub Rock” blasts open #SiameseDream (1993) like a tantrum in fuzz form — walls of guitars, sarcasm thick enough to choke on, and Billy #Corgan throwing shade at the whole indie world. He set out to trash the alt-rock purists and accidentally gave them their anthem. Those reverb-drenched riffs still sound like rebellion bottled in distortion. Pure irony: a song meant to flip off the scene ended up defining it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-KE9lvU810 #sanpetardo #cherubrock #thesmashingpumpkins #musicstr #asongaday

“Two Princes” by Spin Doctors — now that’s a 90s time machine. Dropping in ’91, it’s basically a Brooklyn love triangle: one rich dude, one broke dude, same girl, same chaos. The track oozes funky guitars, denim vibes, and that carefree New York swagger you can’t fake. It’s not just a song — it’s the sound of mixtapes, street corners, and the last golden age before Wi-Fi stole our attention spans. Press play, and boom — you’re back in ’93, baby. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsdy_rct6uo #sanpetardo #twoprinces #spindoctors #musicstr #asongaday

“Vivo” (Live) by Andrea Laszlo De Simone is an existential anthem disguised as a dreamy pop song. It’s like a cosmic sigh turned into music — a celebration of simply being alive, even when life makes no sense. With orchestral swells, vintage vibes, and a voice that sounds halfway between despair and euphoria, Andrea reminds us that breathing is already a form of poetry. “Vivo” dances between melancholy and irony, whispering that maybe enlightenment is just realizing you exist — and that’s both ridiculous and beautiful. It’s not a love song; it’s a love letter to existence itself, slightly drunk on meaninglessness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdsqWCG2wxU #asongaday #sanpetardo #vivo #andrealaszlodesimone

“Wild Horses,” written in 1969 by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, reflects longing and emotional distance. 🎶 Keith 🎸 began it while missing his newborn son, and Mick ✏️ shaped the lyrics about love and restraint. Recorded at Muscle Shoals Studio in Alabama, it was released in 1971 on Sticky Fingers. Its tender melody and the line “wild horses couldn’t drag me away” turned it into one of the Rolling Stones’ most heartfelt ballads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQTHB4jM-KQ #asongaday #sanpetardo #therollingstones #wildhorses

When Public Enemy dropped "He Got Game", they didn’t just borrow from Buffalo Springfield — they straight-up summoned the ghost of the ‘60s to lecture the ‘90s. “For What It’s Worth” turned protest into profit, and Chuck D made sure we all knew the price of the game was our souls. It's like turbo capitalism and consciousness had a baby, and that baby dropped bars. Funny how truth still needs a remix, huh? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FmPskTljo0 #onesongaday #sanpetardo #publicenemy

Mood Of The Day👇 In 1935, Duke Ellington sat at a piano in Durham, North Carolina, trying to ease the tension after a quarrel at a party. Two women stood beside him, one on each side, as his fingers began to dance across the keys. The melody that flowed out — tender, nostalgic, unplanned — became In a Sentimental Mood. Decades later, in 1962, John Coltrane joined Ellington to breathe new life into it — a quiet conversation between piano and sax, where emotion spoke louder than words. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCQfTNOC5aE #onesongaday #sanpetardo #dukeellington #johncoltrane

“Wild Thing” exploded onto the scene in 1966, driven by a raw guitar riff and bold vocals that defined a new kind of rock energy. The Troggs’ version reached number 1 in the US and transformed a simple three-chord approach into an anthem of liberated attitude. Its spirit still crackles: playful, unapologetic, and wildly free, it remains a touchstone for anyone who’s ever felt the thrill of breaking loose. #onesongaday #thetroggs #sanpetardo #asongaday #wildthing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSWInYFVksg

Written in early 1964 by Ray Davies at his parents’ home in north London, the song was inspired by a girl he spotted dancing in a club. Ray originally envisaged it as a blues-inflected number, but his younger brother Dave Davies transformed it in the studio by crafting its now-famous dirty guitar riff. He slit the cone of his Elpico amplifier with a razor blade and ran it through another amp to get the aggressive, distorted tone. Released on August 4, 1964, it became The Kinks’ breakthrough hit, reaching high in both UK and US charts, and is often cited as a foundational record for hard rock, punk and heavy metal. #asongaday #sanpetardo #thekinks #UK #punk #rock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTTsY-oz6Go

“Vincent Price” by Deep Purple is a gothic wink to the master of horror himself. The track drips with eerie organs, thunderous riffs, and playful chills — like a haunted house built on hard rock. It’s not just a song, it’s a cinematic tribute: Price’s elegant fear reborn through Marshall amps and heavy grooves. Where horror met class, Deep Purple found inspiration — turning fright into art and darkness into pure rock theatre. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEWYRRaxFhU #asongaday #sanpetardo #deeppurple #halloween25
