Mike Skinner is one of the finest fellows!
And there's going to be a new album out there on April!

Original Pirate Material and
A grand don't come for free!!!

If you have any chance to listen to his music, do!!!!

It's just great!!!

Those who know him, will understand!!!

P.S. The website www.the-streets.co.uk is under development so it's not that good!

There are a few threads about The Streets in the Band Index stickied at the top of the forum. There are lots of fans around here.

First album was fantastic

i'm hopefully going to see him live in may

 

[Everlastinglove]

@ 1stepcloser: Hopefully you're going to see him. Unfortunatelly he hasn't been in my area! *grml*

 

[If you shout...]

I'm looking forward to Intonation, this summer. Right in my neck of the woods and Skinner's headlining the first day. Should be a grande olde tyme.

Also--where the fuck were all you peeps when I opened up that thread to send some love in the direction of "When You Wasn't Famous," the outrageously fun single from the forthcoming album (The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living).

In other news, this news is like six months old...



Any love of The Streets is a good thing, I suppose. Feel the flow, kids. Feel it.

[Everlastinglove]

Germany! But I've read an interview that he's maybe coming back again in summer!!! Hope so!

@ If you shout...:

Hey, sorry!!! Haven't read it!!!! I LOOOOVE the new single! It's so great and the beat is extremly good! I stay up till night just to see the video on MTV cause the f****** idiots don't broadcast it during the day!!! Well, on March 31 there's the single release and I can't wait anymore!!!!! And I am really looking forward for the new album!!!!!

Oi, oi, oi!!!! Geezers need exitement!!!

 

[1stepcloser]

Oi, oi, oi!!!! Geezers need exitement!!!

[Canadiens1131]

I go to the DVD store
But I caughn't rent anyfin
Cus me mum has no money

Cash a check
Pay it back
Geezers ain't feeling funny

The bird stares into my eyes
Feelin' low down
And I start to cry

Oi oi oi oi oi mobile fone







Hayyy look I can make songs just like the Streets!

 

[Everlastinglove]

Yeah, well! Hmmmmm..... Why aren't you selling millions of albums????

 

[Canadiens1131]

Yeah, well! Hmmmmm..... Why aren't you selling millions of albums????

Aqua has sold millions of albums.... does that count for anything?

 

[Everlastinglove]

Jeeeeeeeeeez, aaaahhh I deleted this band out of my brain!!!!! But thanx for reminding me again!

The Streets

[Carmelu2fan]

My friend from Italy loves them...I only remember one of there songs on account he used to play it 50 times a day He felt the same way about me playing U2 all the time...How does the song go again..."dont mug yourself" something like that

 

[Everlastinglove]

Yeah, it's called don't mug yourself! And it's pretty cool!!!!! I totally can releate to that feeling! His albums are running 24/7 at the moment. And Morrisseys! (Have to start a thread about Moz!)

 

[Everlastinglove]

Nothing more to add here, either???

 

[If you shout...]

The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living has leaked. Things are pretty clogged up, right now, so if anybody's got any ideas....well, shit, son--share 'em!

slsk might help me uncover something, but the torrents to which I have access (I'm rate-limited for dling, unfortunately) are completely clogged.

Let's push things forward, so to speak, and help each other out. Or something. No matter how long I may have to wait, at least I'm xxx-cited, you know?

 

[If you shout...]

Kudos to me for jumping the gun. Let's make it real easy-like, 'kay?

Fill in the blank and fuckin' enjoy it, kids.

You're welcome. (And, yeah--thanks to nonstuff. Killercool.)

"Pranging Out" is already a song which I like. A lot, no less!

 

[Everlastinglove]

Aaah, the new album is great! I really like it although it's quite different to his first 2 album. But they were different too so we should get used to it!

Anyone who also has got it???

 

[Everlastinglove]

It can't be that I am the only one who has got the album!!!!!

Taste!!!! What about taste?

 

[If you shout...]

It's not out in the US, yet.

And I, for one, have already talked about having heard it quite a while ago, now. It's good.

Better than the sketchy Original Pirate Material but nowhere even remotely near the magic which was A Grand Don't Come for Free. Booyakasha.

well well, there's a first. Somebody who likes the 2nd album more than the first album. I've never heard anyone say that before. Not that it's a criticism or anything.

 

[Everlastinglove]

Well, I needed a long time too to listen to the 2nd album and actually like it.... but it's great, really. The whole story, like book. It's amacing. The 3rd one is in between, I think.... Maybe I just need some time.... ,)

 

[1stepcloser]

There's 3 or 4 songs on the 2nd album that sound like fillers. the first track for a start and 'get out of my house', 'not addicted', such a twat' and 'what is he thinking'. All lyrically good and keep up with the storyline but i think they really lack in tune and melody.

i haven't got the 3rd album yet

 

[Everlastinglove]

Well, I think that was his point. In reducing the music to its least and focus more on the lyrics.

Like I said the 3rd is in between the first two albums! Try it!

Ain't these the ones who sing with that London accent, ain't them?
