Oh, I have it, and as I remarked earlier, I feel as if I should like it more than I do. It's pleasant but I never really feel like playing it.

Whoa, how is that possible? Rectify immediately. Great song, much better than No Doubt's.

I'm willing to check out Spirit of Eden, nonetheless. My new-wave collection is rather lacking.

Spirit of Eden is most definitely NOT new wave. And because I'm getting into Talk Talk in a weird order. The Party's Over > Spirit of Eden > Laughing Stock > It's My Life > The Colour Of Spring
Hey BEG! 
Oh god, I almost did exactly the same thing in a set against Borg, except I was 5-4 and didn't quite get to serving for the set (was one point off).

I'm listening to "I Believe In You" right now, rather digging it, actually.

Yeah, I can kind of tell that now. Makes it a lot more accessible today, really.
I tend to veer towards some more recent post-rock in that sort of circumstance ... Long Distance Calling or Sleepmakeswaves or some Laura tracks.
Or just Faith and Disintegration.

Jesus fucking poltergeist! How came I never heard Life's What You Make It until now? It sounds like it should be in an early 90's Sonic game.

Ian, don't you wish the game would give you some sort of recognition for at least rallying well? I just lost a couple of games without picking up a lone point, but played lengthy rallies for the privilege every time.
Ah well, I ultimately went down 6-1 7-5 6-4, one of my more respectable losses to Borg. Maybe I should play tipsy more often?

The song Talk Talk is fuckin awesome. Pony tails ftw.
i really, really, really hate it. it just might be my least favourite genre, as it's the only genre i can recall where i don't like a single song from it.You won't piss me off.

Wot is post-rock?
yeeees.The song Talk Talk is fuckin awesome. Pony tails ftw.
speaking of them, it's funny, until recently i didn't know there was a second version of the video for it's my life. the one bonnie posted labelled the u.s. version, that is. i actually just saw it on tv earlier, but in years past (same channel, too) they always showed the other clip.

Fancypants name for (usually) instrumental music using rock instruments but eschewing traditional rock song structures.
That said, Talk Talk's later albums are considered pioneering post-rock albums and they sound nothing like the genres standard bearers, e.g. Explosions In The Sky, Mogwai, Godspeed You! Black Emperor.
(Possibly my favourite genre of music because there's normally no awful vocalist singing terrible lyrics to fuck up otherwise good sounding songs.)

yeeees.
I'm listening to Talk Talk (the song lolz) now. :') I'm kinda enjoying this too much.
Never seen the US version either, the music channel I watched more or less constantly from 2000-2007 always showed to other one.

yeeees.
When Talk Talk the band and song came out in what, 82, all the interviews went on about them being like Duran, just cos they supported them and had a double barrelled name. I thought this was nonsense of course, and was proved right when Kajagoogoo came along, who really were Duran copyists.
With worse hair.
And Limahl.
