Random Music Talk XXIX: You snooze, you lose

[lazarus]

Sum sense of humor you guys have there.

I hope GAF is okay....late 3rd period, Blackhawks down 1-0....tense.

I'll go back to the Lake show when it's over, Laz, don't you worry.

COBL, Bad live is subfuckinglime*.






*Except it was more sublime in 1987.

I'm tipping most things about U2 concerts were... but I was still a wee sperm at that point in time.

Running to Stand Still / Dirty Old Town from one of the Point Depot concerts is unbelievably moving.

Way to interrupt the math jokes.

You're going to be helping us with The Final Solution, that's for sure.

Oh my God. I can't find it anywhere on the internet in the three minutes I've spent looking for it, but the video for "Charlotte Sometimes" is one of the most laughably hilarious things I've ever seen.

I'm not sure which part of that video is more awesome, RS staring into the camera or the rest of the band NOT looking into the camera.

I think I find the old guy with emphysema struggling to breathe but still smoking in the Killing an Arab video even more entertaining.

Jake?

Is it Fallon's new thing to sing with his guests? He and Meat Loaf are singing the Bagel Bites theme song right now. It's kind of awesome.

Anyways, I was looking for the hockey game.

Hockey game is on Versus, heading to OT in a few minutes.

Yeah, I found that out . No cable strikes again. Any clue on a stream? Or maybe I should just keep not watching. Don't want to be a jinx.

Which reminds me, I still haven't watched episode two of Game of Thrones. I've been in music mode again recently, so haven't quite felt like watching TV.

There are always streams to be found, be they legal or otherwise. But, maybe you should just listen on RADIO and not jinx them.

Watch the next fucking episode. It's like you want to be killed.

 

[bono_212]

Didn't think about radio. Good idea. As for streams, I never know where to look for them.

Is that a threat? You actually think you can do something?

You're very computer literate, just start searching if you want.

Radio is fun, though, especially when the next goal ends the entire series.

And, you never understand, do you? I already did something.

Music is awesome! Today, at work, I listened to The National all day.

 

[bono_212]

I'm just listening to the radio. I'm so used to not being allowed to stream WGN for Cubs games, I didn't think about being able to do it for NHL.

And you never understand that I'm always two steps ahead of you and have done something to stop your something.

Music IS awesome. And clearly I'm steering towards being VERY into The Cure again. I haven't given them much time recently.

The girl being terrified by her own body cracked me up.

I find all of their videos pretty awful, honestly. Save the Lovecats video. That one's so absurd it's good.

 

[No spoken words]

I am a very casual Cure fan. Like their hits and Disintegration....should probably dig deeper into their stuff one day.

 

[bono_212]

I don't know enough about what you like, musically to have any clue what to recommend to you, but The Head on the Door is always good. I've also been a big Pornography fan lately.

Everyone else in here seems able to recommend shit to me.

Perhaps you need to be eradicated. I'm just speculating out loud.

Laz edits everything. If only someone could edit his fucking DNA.

 

[bono_212]

You are a mystery to me for whatever reason. No, that's not true. When it comes to the 90s, I have a pretty good idea what you'd like, but, I am never overly confident recommending music to most anyone.

Your out-loud speculation has been noted.

And, I am indeed a jinx.

 

[No spoken words]

Way to fuck EVERYTHING up.

I'll give Head on the Door a listen, thanks.

 

[bono_212]

No problem.

It's probably their poppiest album. "Close to Me" "In Between Days" and "Six Different Ways" are on there, so it's hard not to be. "A Night Like This" is one of their best songs as well. A great, great album.

f(x) walked into a bar but the barman said "sorry, we don't do functions".

I have "A Night Like This" in my collection already, cos I LOVE THAT SONG.

 

[bono_212]

It's a good. fucking. song.

 

[lazarus]

Head on the Door is great, but I'd suggest Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me, which is about a thorough a sampling of their sound as your going to get.

Ashley is like the only Cure fan I know who is cool on the album, but she crazy.

Was it a single? I was surprised to see it on the now-outdated-but-still-entertaining VHS collection. It's my favorite song on THOTD.

Disintegration is always the place to start.
