Random Music Talk LVI: Featuring Hologram Shouter and NSW

[mobvok]

I think its rather miraculous, but I have been exposed to precisely the most tolerable amount of Moves Like Jagger and enjoy it. It's a razor thin precipice, to be sure, but it's worked well so far.

I think Moves Like Jagger is awful but I loved, and still like, This Love. It's just a nice pop song.

I like that song, too. There's a song of theirs from their second album called "Back at Your Door" that I particularly like as well-they do have some catchy songs, definitely.

Just, could do without "Moves Like Jagger" for a bit, myself. But hey, mobvok, if you like it, wonderful .

Friend of mine, whose taste influences others, went to Bon Iver in the States last night and posted about how amazing it was. That was great, but then she uploaded a video of the entirety of Skinny Love! I'm being a pompous, elitist arse here but put it in your pocket and enjoy the goddamn show itself! It's like there isn't three million versions of it on youtube should someone else want to look it up. Ughhh #rantover

Related, this has 21.4 million views on youtube.

It's nice (though very inferior) and she has a good voice but I'm gonna kill the next person who talks about how amazing it is, thinking it's her song.

I had a bad day today, that's why I'm in a crappy mood. I was meant to have the weekend's scores and next weekend's preview all done and filed by like 9am but I completely forgot about it over the weekend, and left late for work cos I was tired, and only remembered when the news editor rang me asking where the hell I was and where is the sports stuff. I got it done, but it was late.

Do you guys have any stories of similar stuff-ups at work or something for no other reason than you completely forgot about it? I could use a tale or two.

Same here. I can still tolerate Moves Like Jagger. This Love on the other hand...

 

[lazarus]

Christ, can we move talk about Maroon 5 to a separate thread for shitty music?

What happened to this place?

 

[cobl04]

Bad day in Europe?

 

[lazarus]

No, this city is so hip and cool it's even more striking stumbling across something as lame as Maroon 5 talk.

Kinsey

sure hope he comes back one day.

I miss him more than Shouter and NSW combined.

 

[cobl04]

Who are you talking about?

I really did love Songs About Jane back in the day.

I do miss shouter. His posts, even the ones that went completely over my head, always enticed me. I hope he's okay. I remember one of his last posts was about his breakup with a long-term girlfriend...

If Shouter did something stupid like kill himself, rest assured it wasn't under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or Forgiveness Rock Record.

Oh man, Dalton's response to shouter's original post about FRR, and then shouter's confusion, is one of the funniest things I've read on this forum.

 

[lazarus]

He reminds me of a young Orson Welles.

Too bad he couldn't work on a Paul Mason account.

 

[lazarus]

I just did a search for posts with "forgiveness" from IYS. Nothing.

Who are you talking about?

Paul Kinsey. He was a regular character on the extraordinary American television series Mad Men for its first three seasons, and then he was written off the show after the end of Season 3.

He was a fucking hilarious character, and one of my very favorites on the show. God damn shame.

Haha YES, the Kid A review made an appearance.

 

[LemonMelon]

I've been spoiled horribly by this page, btw. I'm on episode 8 of season 3. Dammit, this is so sad.

 

[lazarus]

I just found it on my own. Makes me wish even more I had started listening to BSS sooner.

So amazing. And then Dalton's follow-up dismantling Shouter's typical indie reactions: priceless.

Dalton needs to stop poking in for a sec and make a full return.

 

[cobl04]

Easily my favourite BSS album, fwiw.

Oops. Yeah, it's tough not being caught up with this show. I haven't seen anything from this season save the premiere, and I feel like any time I go on Twitter or FB it's like a minefield of Mad Men spoilers. Even Hollywood Elsewhere had a major one today that I walked right into.

 

[joyfulgirl]

Harry should have been written out of the show instead of Paul Kinsey.

 

[lazarus]

It's easier to hate Harry, prob why they kept him.

 

[bono_212]

I'm way behind on this thread and its conversation, so I'll come back later to catch up, but in response to.....iYup? from the last thread:

http://www.u2interference.com/forums/f221/horse-feathers-thistled-spring-207155.html

I liked their last album pretty well, didn't realize they had a new one. Excited!

 

[lazarus]

Jeez, this thread is getting less action than Lance in his first couple years of college.

 

[PhilsFan]

It was 85 degrees a week ago. Today, it's been snowing all day.

It's 1985. The members of the Clash, New Order and The Cure fight in a steel cage death match. Who comes out alive?
