That's it. You may be surprised to know there is only one correct answer.
 
You prick. I fart in your general direction.

(For the benefit of anybody else trudging through this: obviously it's not Lemon as we did that earlier, and Daddy's Gonna Pay was snippeted a few times earlier in 1993 and once in 2005.)

Back to your favourite era, Liam.

Why is it gonna take that long???

Because I went out with friends...but when I got back my internet wasn't working so I just watched Friday Night Lights instead. I can't believe it took me this long to watch that show.
 
We were talking about this the other day....I read the book and was underwhelmed, after all the hype over it.....so I've shied away from the show. I am sure that I'll catch up on it all one day via DVD, though.

Didn't read the book. The show is fantastic. The first episode had me cheering like it was a real game. It made me wish I'd grown up with more high school football, or that my college had a team.

here's how i can describe the songs:

united colours: the opening track where it's all synths going WHEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOO
slug: bono saying random shit like "don't want to lose my shirt" and other things ending in -irt
your blue room: bono having sex with the mic
always forever now: the title is sung in the song so, seriously, come on. plus those are like the only words i think, so yeah.
a different kind of blue: heavily synthesised lyrics that are total nonsense. "those cars all new so small" uhhhh okay
beach sequence: you're not gonna believe this guys but...there's more synths on this song! recognisable as having one line in the song: "time shoots on by" i hope bono didn't get writer's block for it
down.gif

miss sarajevo: otherwise known as the song everyone knows, or the song with the fat italian dude.
ito okashi: the song with the japanese jibberish
one minute warning: the song with the weeeeird synths and the lyrics that go a lonesome soooooooooul in an old black coooooooat - proof U2 are emo
corpse (this title is way too long): the song the edge sings. also known as the song where the only word you can understand is chains.
elvis ate america: the song with chuck d, aka the song no one likes.
plot 180: the song that goes boom boom boom chicka chicka *ding*
theme from the swan: the one with the violins
theme from let's go native: the one with the bass and drums and with bono going "ha ha" i guess he's laughing at the fact that you listened to the whole album?

:lmao:

TRUTH
 
My HS did not have a team (unreal, but, we did have a Chess team and our debate team was sublime) and my College was DIII.

I rarely read sports books, but figured I'd give that one a shot. Reminded me of why I stick to books that do not involve sports. :)

When the show has run its course, whenever that is, I'm sure I'll get the DVDs.
 
Why is Corpse getting so many votes? It's a beautiful, scary jazz nightclub song.
 
It's so close again, maybe we'll have another double elimination tonight :hmm: Too bad tho, Corpse shouldn't be leaving yet, but still I'm ok with getting this album done faster.

My college is DIII AND doesn't have a football team. Also, our debate team is pretty mediocre (I'm on it).

I don't think I've ever read a football book, but I love baseball books. W.P. Kinsella, who wrote Shoeless Joe, has some other great novels and short stories (Box Socials, The Iowa Baseball Confederacy), and Mark Harris's Bang the Drum Slowly series is phenomonal.

Ever read anything by Halberstam?
 
:no: I was gonna vote for United Colours, but I like Corpse so I voted for Swan... :lol:

Why all the Corpse hate? :sad:
(actually, don't answer that...)
