Well, first off, I take that as a compliment. It's nice to be known as an impartial arbiter/prophet of truth, unpopular though it may be...siclkle wahatever wrote:This is an observation I find typical of you..
..but, for the tmi crowd, I was having one of those "hey, let's put on PHM and do the nasty" nights, which is a bit nostalgiac for me, but sounded fun...
So I'm doing my thang, layin' in the sleek moves et. al.
Miss thang was all into it (despite the fact that she was 11 when the record came out), and and I was pleasantly anticipating the old :"Oooh, it's the indro pop(as opposed to indie pop, which I prefer...)rekkid what changed my tastes...(aCTUALLY, THAT WAS BROKEN. i REVERSE ENGINEERED TO phm).
CONTEXUAL SIDEBAR FOR SLIGHTLY OLDER GUYS:\
Dude! What was up with the NIN? There were always these bands I didn't care fo, that became the :"I'm actually a nice girl, but this music will let you know my intentions, IE. your schlong, my punani/
vajaejae.
What were those records? I remeber enigma being all the rage in 89-90. Enigma and a couple of candles, possibly on you, more likely on them. (Girls being king of making it seem your idea, which means they get taken to their favorite music, but act like it was thrust upon them...nothing like a "nice" boy who will violate them. Best of both worlds, I suppose...
So, this is the innaugural list of crap you had to listren to on account of girls. (As any expierienced gamer knows,you give a little, and even achknowledge the good points of Morrisey, overlook her good-looking-emo-boy records, all of which are shite, aside from John Carraba, who kills me because he sounds like the pure unadulterad male ego, my voice when I deam, before it's had the shit kicked out of it.
Anyways, the poll is this (Please repost).
Who are the bands that you only listen to because of the girl in you life.
For extra point: Which ones did you come around to and realize they're pretty frickin good?!
P.S;., I m one of you, oh me suffering brothers.
HELP ME WITH THIS. mY GIRL IS EIN pIXIE fANATIC.
I do not get the pixies. They are less heavy then their peers, less melodic, and a virtual personaliy vaccum. I don't get it. They have okay somgs (here comes your man is a Lou Reed Riff, done as contrite pop)....
The only thing I can figure is that their lack of being exceptional is their hook...I can see it working for underacheiving teens...:"Hey, I don't have to be good, I can evwn be fat and bald! look at the pixies..."
...which is deceptive, because old franco negro had a pretty good way with a lyiric and vocal line...
...anyways. I have $45 american dollars for he who can open my eyes to ye pixies, and I'll supply the booze for the conversation...but I'm expexting exhausting detail...
Mind you, if you know someone who is simalarly baffled by the importance of Black Sabbath/Ozzy solo. I can provide a comprehensive overview of why the rawk rawks.
...but musically...
Yee. Gone long...I blame the purer passion, loosened with the beer, booze, pot and clonopin...It's a good cocktail for really caring, thoug...
Where did this start?
