[typhoon]

[Red Ships of Scalla-Festa]

haha.

"adult contemporary's answer to c reed!"

 

[Angela Harlem]

I almost went to a show they did in the late 90's, cant remember when it was exactly. But it was pretty much when they were everywhere lol. I guess these Sydney shows have sold out now and I might have considered it as I could have got a babysitter...ah well. I think though, as they have been fairly quiet lately compared to back then, it wouldn't be the same anyway. I have a short attention span lol.

 

[Red Ships of Scalla-Festa]

i knew id finally find out something about angela that i didnt like...

[Angela Harlem]

what, that i realised i didn't like them anymore?

 

[Red Ships of Scalla-Festa]

oh, i thought you still did.

 

[Angela Harlem]

tell me what in your opinion, are the 2 best radiohead songs. i may be able to finally give you something to not like about me
i will d/l and listen and finally decide if they are good or not, but i need what you think are the 2 best. only 2 as i cant be arsed getting anymore than that

 

[Kieran McConville]

I don't know about Red Ships of Scaly Fester but for my money the best two Radiohead songs without fail are:

Karma Police
Let Down

 

[Angela Harlem]

Ahh thanks K. I forgot about the joyful old Karma Police. The 'other' single that everyone forgets about.
I shall seek this Let Down.

 

[Flaming Friar Sr]

i'll give you my fave two of the new album:

we suck young blood
scatterbrain

great thread!!!

 

[Red Ships of Scalla-Festa]

alright

my two favorites are

airbag
fake plastic trees

but i also highly recommend there there and paranoid android.

now tell me what you think dear angela

 

[Kieran McConville]

Did I ever mention how much Phil Collins used to rock?

 

[Red Ships of Scalla-Festa]

a few times, yes.

and may i say, for the record, that i think phil collins should only be allowed to live if hes chained to a stick in your attic with the rest of the dobermans.

of their older songs (songs not on the latest album), I would definitely try:
Idioteque omfg I love that song...
Paranoid Android
Fake Plastic Trees
As for the new songs....I'm not a good person to ask because I'm drooling over the whole damn thing.

Re: Re: aussies!, anyone planning to see matchbox twenty?

im telling on you.....

NO NO please dont tell

i didnt relise people didnt like them soo much,
all i have to ask is WHY!!?
i've seen them twice before...first in 98 and again in 2000
they've been the 2 best shows i've been to
NOTE: I havent seen u2 before

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

I bet bear will have a better way of phrasing this, but their music is, in a word, boring.

 

[bono_man2002]

BORING!

well i guess everyones entitled to there own opinion

 

[TylerDurden]

Boring!!!!
I wouldn't say that.
I'd say excrutiatingly boring.

 

[ishkash]

When is that Coldplay thing coming to Melbourne? I want to see a retarded monkey on the Piano (reference: Triple M)

 

[Red Ships of Scalla-Festa]

Boring!!!!
I wouldn't say that.
I'd say excrutiatingly boring.

i would say that.

but then id say that sort of description is left for better but still boring bands such as coldplay.

matchbox twenty is adult contemporaries answer to nickelback.

matchbox twenty is corporate puss rock created for ears who have never heard real music before.

matchbox twenty < *****

at least listening to ***** makes me laugh.

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

there, I told you dear deathy would phrase it well!

 

[Red Ships of Scalla-Festa]

thank you.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

this is no help, but i was planning on seeing them when they came to tupelo, mississippi. i mainly wanted to see sugar ray, who i've liked for years and years now, even before they were popular. cuz there's a leg of their tour where both matchbox twenty and sugar ray are performing together.

matchbox twenty are all right. their first album was good, their second was okay, i've not even bought their latest just because i've yet to really hear a song that makes me want to buy it.

 

[bono_man2002]

well, download "could i be you"
its my fav song from the album at the moment
