Is that the one from the late 80s?

It's their second last album; first without Waters

As hated as Momentary Lapse may be, I still rate Sorrow as Pink Floyd's second-best song, just behind Summer '68.

It's not bad; has it's moments for sure



Oh and in case you guys didn't notice; the next round of the Artist League is up

Share?

You guys can have all the plain chocolate ones, since I don't like those.

Man, pudding pops are LEGENDARY. They stopped making them for something like ten years, then the kids who fell in love with them in the 80s grew up and demanded that the company start making them again, and they did

 

[Axver]

Yeah. The Wall has its moments. But overall it's very inconsistant. Ah well. It was in someone's cd case at work and I had my computer handy and I hadn't heard it. Perhaps I'll look for some WYWH and Animals soon.... Oh, and when you bake blueberry muffins, do you put the crispy sugar on top?

The Wall is just bloated if you ask me, and the musical qualities are sacrificed at the altar of its concept. I think Animals much more successfully integrates concept with well-composed, entertaining music.

As for blueberry muffins, I've only made them twice. The first time I tried to be too clever and botched them, so the second batch was very basic, just to get it right. Next time around, I'm tempted to add some white chocolate. A cafe near where I lived in Brisbane did these amazing blueberry and white chocolate muffins and I'd love to replicate them.

Is that the one from the late 80s?

Yep. Most of it's pretty dodgy, but a few of the songs work out well, and Sorrow is what got me into Pink Floyd.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

Probably not. I could post pictures of my poop, though!

please do!

 

[Axver]

And, and I've moved on from one Greatest Hits album to another. I finished Pink Floyd and so I'm onto Queen.

Queen's first two Best Ofs really are pretty good as far as compilations go, I think.

Though I'll always maintain that Queen II is their best album. It's the proggiest, so who's shocked.

Oh and in case you guys didn't notice; the next round of the Artist League is up

Coolness, I'll go vote now.

 

[Irishteen]

Queen's Best of; the first one...is probably one of the best best ofs ever period

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I imagine there are no prizes for guessing Chass's pick.

True.

Do you think Best of albums are the enemy of art?

Yeah, that's the first Greatest Hits, though my copy (well, my mother's, ripped onto my computer) doesn't have the last three tracks. Definitely a quality compilation.

They break the cycle.

Screwrape, from Superthread #149, Broomrape Lane, Havasu City, Arizona?

I'd hug you, but you might put out a restraining order against me.

Hey Ashley

long day?

Weird. Maybe the last 3 songs were an American thing? The two live tracks are good, but the other one is pretty shitty (the drummer sang it).

 

[bono_212]

Hey Ashley

long day?

ya think?

I'm going to sleep, I'm just gonna have to pay the ticket I get for my illegally parked car

 

[Axver]

Hey Ashley, hope you aren't too exhausted!

Looking on RYM, it appears the three extra tracks appear on a 2004 re-issue of the compilation. My copy was purchased in 1998.

Ahhh, that makes sense then. I bought mine probably 4 years ago.

I'm looking forward to enchiladas for dinner tonight.

I'm looking forward to enchiladas for dinner tonight.

Since I like plain food, enchiladas have never really appealed to me.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

I'm looking forward to enchiladas for dinner tonight.

i don't believe i've ever had an enchilada.

jesus, these fuckers outside are REALLY testing my patience. i'm tempted to get all passive-aggressive and call the cops. instead of like, you know, poking my head outside and yelling "SHUUUUUUUUUUT UUUUUUUUUUP!!!!!!!!"

Just light a stick of dynamite and throw it at them and yell, "Eat it, cunts!"

Given how well I bastardise Mexican food, I wonder if what I make can even be considered enchiladas.

What are they doing? And go on, call the cops, you know you want to.

am i a loser for never finding the whole "omg i'm acting like a moron, running around screaming while holding a plastic cup full of beer" thing fun?
