Random Music talk LXXXIV: More weeks at #1 than Elvis & The Beatles

[LemonMelon]

Stock up on oranges, they make for fangs the kids like.

Shit possibly going down in the New Album thread.

Gabe is essentially verifying a post from earlier that sounded like someone having fun.

'Shit possibly going down'?

I don't see or hear any broken keyboards flying about.

 

[the tourist]

Hey guys! I'm now officially a home owner!

Those song titles have got to be horseshit. Someone in that room had to know better than to call something "Morleigh's Song."

Guess you need to change your username. The Ownist? The Homeist?

Let's hope so. The album title sucks, as does "Earth 2030".

 

[Jive Turkey]

The first single off Manhattan could possibly be Skyline? ....Jesus Christ

I think it might have to do with the new songs they played on the last tour, but I fear this might be the album I officially pack it in. Hope I'm wrong

 

[cobl04]

No fucking way they're real.

 

[gump]

If their new album is called manhattan, I will move to Brooklyn.

 

[cobl04]

I always think of the Cat Power song when I see the word Manhattan. So pretty.

Don't look at the moon tonight... cos you'll never be never be never be Manhattan

Ease up a little, mate.

wait, this has nothing to do with any of the new 'news'. I think I made a similar post around the time of the tour. I'm basing it off how my fandom has diminished over the years and the new crapola they played live. I'm just reiterating an old point

 

[Jive Turkey]

I hope Everybody Knows Who I Like is about Jesus

Acoustic New York remixed by Jacknife Lee

They might save that for subscribers though

 

[Vlad n U 2]

No, it will be about Dubya.

 

[Jive Turkey]

No, it will be about Dubya.

But they'll dedicate it to Nelson Mandella when they play it live

 

[LemonMelon]

While wearing Aung San Suu Kyi's face.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Just threw on NLOTH in the first time in forever. What a good ass album

 

[LemonMelon]

Even including the three really shitty tracks in the middle it's still a really good album. A lot of overreaction from people who try to claim it's a brilliant return to form and the people who think it's a disaster.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Oh wait, just reached the album's ballsack, taint, and asshole. Fastforward

 

[u2popmofo]

Are you listening to it on a Walkman?

 

[Jive Turkey]

If I press play and fastforward at the same time, I don't even have to search for the next song

Well said. And an excellent example of an overreaction.

 

[LemonMelon]

No, I truly believe those songs are shitty. I've heard them dozens of times and they remain so. The shock is long gone. I continue to feel this way about them.

Magnificent is a great example of how over the top people got. Many were claiming it was a classic before even finishing it. The backlash was just as bad. Really, it's just a nice song.

If you liked No Line that much, I doubt this album will be the one that sends you away.

Nice, but why didn't you call me back when I paged you?

 

[HeartlandGirl]

Did you put "911" at the end of the page?

Oh, right.
