Nickleback. Its like they try to be real music, but they're just trying in a formulaic by the numbers sort of money-oriented way.
Plus I hate how their songs are put into advertisement bits. When "photograph" is played, I punch my radio.
I'm serious. I will not listen to that song.
I also hate it when DJ's get "sold out" and forced to say "AND NOW HERES NICKLEBACK WITH PHOTOGRPAH!!1on1oneoenoene".
FUCK PLAY SOME REAL MUSIC AAAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHH :flame:
I really missed out not getting into music at all until I was like 18/19. I totally missed out on 90s grunge :(

Anything by Lifehouse. Take your pick, any song, it's digital feces for people who are shallow as mud puddles. All guys I know who listen to Lifehouse sit down to pee.
Oh yeah, Arms Wide Open, those Creed puds. A friend called me up and said "I have good news and bad news: the good news is, Creed broke up. The bad news is, now two bands will be formed," True story. Thank God neither project produced flatulence that reached my ears. Scott Stapp - Die, mollyfugguh, die!
Oz Girl, you have to know one of my favorite bands that Americans are too musically challenged to pick up on - You Am I. Are you familiar? Ever since I heard "Berlin Chair", I was hunting CD's by Tim and the boys. A Rock and Roll band, not emo-quasi-alturdative-post-retro whatever...
Shit, this is a break from gritting my teeth and spitting poison at RTC's, WTF's, programs in general. These days I spend my time degrading myself talking to lawyers, organizing evidence, and chatting with former Peninsula Village kids. Talking to the PV kids is a great thing, though they are some hardcore fucking survivors and funny as hell. One guy, must be about 19, blew my mind with his musical faves. I'm from DC, and this kid was loving Bad Brains, Minor Threat, Rites of Spring, Government Issue. He blew my mind when he named off a non-DC band as a favorite - my homeboy Cheetah Chrome's old band, Dead Boys. Cheetah lives here in Nashville, I spent a whole day with him, listening to the funniest and most fucked-up stories about Johnny Thunders, and the Dead Boys touring with Iggy - One night during Iggy's set, Mr. Pop dropped his trousers and was showing everyone his Root of All Evil...the guitar player was wanking and Iggy crouched by the edge of the stage, bobbing his head, grinning, looking at the crowd and looking at the band. Then he sprang into the air and started singing again.
At the end of the set, the stage crew went to wind up the cables, and where Iggy had been squatting they found a big, stinking pile of Iggy shit, dead in the middle of the cables. That's Rock & Roll, Kids!

So I'm standing in the classic rock section of this old record store w/ a friend. He's a colorful character and an absolute freak for psychadelic rock. Dude's like a kid in a candy shop, reeling off music trivia, talking about the vinyl copies he used to have of everything in sight and singing some of the best songs. One of the clerks, dude about our age, comes skipping through the door grasping a package crying "The new Godspmack is here, the new Godsmack is here!" :rofl:

Not as lame as seeing Jimmy Page prostitute himself with P-Puffy-Diddy-Daddy...whatever the hell he calls himself...on that Kasmir rip-off. A lot of people reached for the retching bags then.
We used to play a game where I worked called "stick it". The idea was to wander past a co-worker humming or singing a really lame song that was a big hit. Lame or not, the melodies were intrusive. Normally the person exposed to it had the tune "stuck" in their head for the day. Some truly "sticky" songs that people hated to have on their mental music loop:
"Eye of the Tiger" - You can imagine the torment. "Sherry" by the Four Seasons. The falsetto from hell. "Don't Stop Believin", or any other Journey song, really. "Y.M.C.A." Yeah, that was a tormentor. "Renegade" by Styx. "Babe" by Styx. Any Styx song.
Irritate your friends and co-workers! Enjoy their inner torment as they suffer a non-stop loop of "Muskrat Love".

I have the latest You Am I, "Convicts". I like it better than "Deliverance". It's a great story how Davey got the second guitar slot in You Am I - he was a fan going to the band's website (really a well-done band page) and on the guitar TAB section (charting out the songs) he was doing some great transcriptions that impressed Tim. Davey was at a You Am I gig, Tim Rogers knew it and called Davey up to play. It went so well, he never left and became a full member. The ultimate fan dream.
What's Tim's solo deal - the Tim Rogers' Temperance Union, I think. Like any of them have a solid hold on temperance.
Jello and the rest of the DK's are not on good terms, due to the very un-Punk reason of money squabbles. A friend of mine was in a band Jello claimed had the greatest name ever - Maggot Sandwich. Rent a DVD called "American Hardcore - 1980-1986" Not much on the DK's but some classic Rollins-era Black Flag footage makes up for it.
I'll check out JJJ. I have a recording of You Am I on...the Homestead show on JJJ, I think, talking with Davey and Tim and playing tracks off Convicts.

the title is in part an in gag as there used to be an organisation called the womens christian temperance union who lobbied for prohibition at the turn of the century when Sydney was basically a den of drunken debauchery. They never came close to suceeding. Tim went into rehab and them formed this project. They have done a double album. Nobody knows if the treatment took. But I think the album is meant to be about his experiences with this. The website allows you to sample tracks
If you like you am I, you might like Jet. Are they heard of over there? or a group called The Whitlams http://www.youami.net/timrogers/high.htm (http://www.youami.net/timrogers/high.htm)
As to Jello i heard something about this. I inherited a love of the Kennedies from my cooler older brother. Technically they are a little before my time but still. Did you ever see them live?

No, I was too young at the time DK's made the rounds to enter clubs - I was more into the tail end of the Minneapolis scene, with the Replacements, Husker Du, pre - "Runaway Train" Soul Asylum, and I was living in Washington, D.C. when Dischord got going and Fugazi was woodshedding.
Jets are making a name in America, and I'm sorry Tim Rogers had to go through rehab. Quitting booze is hellish. I found quitting cigs even worse, since smoking follows a social time table: morning wake-up ritual, all work breaks, after all meals, and sometimes following procreation.

Hey Oz Girl, I have. They were hot for a while before I got put into Straight (late 1982). I ended up joining back with a band (Reptile House from Baltimore, MD) that opened for them in the summer of 1985. They were touring with the Butthole Surfers. Our drummer had mailed the demo to Jello Biafra and he liked it enough to book us for that show. The gig was at the old WUST Music Hall in DC.

I know you, Froderik. We discussed the Dischord single cut by Reptile House.
By the way, I've been communicating (abstractly) with a certain individual from MCC, and I asked how Poochie was doing. He's fine, I was told. He truly "feels" for the young men in his charge. I believe we have a mutual friend who claims being the victim of liberal junk fondling by an individual named "Poochie".

That is so cool! By the time I liked them, they had broken up. When i was 14 my cool big brother snuck me and the kid next door into a spoken word performance by Jello. i think it is the only time he made it to my home town. i fell for his counter culture punk sensiblity, went home and binned my new Kids On the Block and Milli Vanilli CDs and begged my parents for a drum kit for my next birthday. Aah memories.

I disagree with the Wham "Freedom" song, their real burr in the brain has to be th duo's insipid "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go," That song's got leg braces, it's so lame.
So what's the best horror song to reduce the average co-worker to drooling despair? To me, a real horror song is "Brandy" by Looking Glass ..."And the people say Brandy...You're a fine girl..what a good wife, you would be" That's super glue for the medulla oblongata, and that's bone-chilling scary.

Much in agreement there. I hold Green Day accountable for this era of "Punk" bands who are decidedly NOT Punk.
Take Blink182, for example. Put up a picture of that Hoppus guy and a picture of Sid Vicious and ask yerself: "Which one is the Punk bass player?" Uh-huh. Hoppus looks like Wally Cleaver.
Blink182 (and any other new Punk band with a number tagged on, which excludes the magnificent Sector 27), Good Charlotte, that whole lot of asswipes...they're as punk as Josie and the Pussycats, or the fuckin' Archies. The whiny vocal style that cretin in Dashboard Confessional started is everywhere. Ah, fuggit, I need to stop or I'll get all wound up. The good news is, my kids know the real deal. My step daughter isn't much into old Punk, but she is a monster XTC fan and she was working out to Cursive's Happy Hollow a little while ago. My step son is a music fiend, our tastes are parallel. The hope of the future and all that.
Back to the topic..here's a stinker you're lucky if you don't know..."Gimme Dat Ding", which has been in my head since last night. Help me...

Blah Blah Blah - Yeah, man, there's an album Iggy would probably like to have excised from his otherwise hellagood catalog. I think Bowie produced that turd, too, so shame on both of 'em. The only decent song on that rekkid was "Shades", and it's only good by default.

good charolette i agree, blink i think they are FUNNY as fuck and hardly new. they were around a good 10 years, they broke up, each band member is incredibly talented, they were each in at least 1 if not 2 other banks simultaneously and they were funny as fuck, oh i said that.
I would not consider them posers, just like they really never claimed to be punk. Its the public that fucks that shit up. they were just 3 crazy guys dickin around people chose to label their music punk. I saw them live and it was a great show, and funny! LOL
if they were posin they would be attempting to sing about anarchy and shit not midgets. lol
i think we tend to label shit more then the bands do. But the rest like good charolette, and all these other lame emo bands whose music ISNT funny and all sounds the same. id' agree. i just see blink in a different way, far from punk, just a bunch of punk ass boys having fun. and they did it well for along time. and i love the stuff they are doing now apart from blink too. angels and airwaves for example. far far from punk
sorry i saw frods quote and had missed the blink part so had to comment

i might add, we really are lacking in the punk music department "commercially" though. so yeah what do you expect. we could use some good edgy punk music these days on the radio, or would that do more harm then good! most of its just not "pop" Enough for the radio i guess. which is one reason i don't bother to listen. id prefer it that way though i think, no need for everyone to know about good music. lol only the cool folks. and frod. :rofl: :rofl:

good char and the other lamos consider themselves EMO which is good cuz thats not punk either.LOL but they do try to carry themselves like this new punk movement cuz they have a mohawk or color their hair green or get a tattoo. Now id agree that is annoying cuz they are whiney bitchs. LOL i just have a soft spot for the NON punk band blink 182 can you tell? Ive had this argument before and just no need to lump them in with the rest when they've made it a point in interviews and everywhere else to not label themselves a punk rock band. at least they keep it real and couldnt be more obvious about their non punkness wiht the subject matter in their songs lol.

and since when is punk about a look ? you will always have people who like to dress that way but dont live that way. more power to them as long as they aren't frontin
here's my thought..It's obvious/ Record companies want to sell to KIDS, kids like whiny bitchy emo music, yet the whole PUNK thing attached to it makes them sell many more records without having to deal with REAL punk bands. One reason real punk music doesn't get commercial here, which im fine with, is most punk bands aren't willing to sell their soul to get a deal.

are you kidding? no they dont LOL
Come on... the spiked hair, etc..? Pfft.
uh and? LOL so what, thats fashion THAT took over along time ago there is no stopping that./ i have no problem with some one spiking their hair and not being an anarchist or truly punk meaning the 2 dont have to go hand in hand. To me punk is mostly a state of mind just like someone can surely be punk and have on a suit. I these kids, blink (they are in their mid 30s now) were dressin like that in high School before they were a band, big deal.
I just respect the fact that they publicly state they aren't trying to be a punk band they are just having fun. FFS they sing about midgets and tits and run around naked in their Videos.
90% of spiked haired people in our country are not punk if not more, But i dont think that one thing should lump them in with a group of true posers. They are not POSING as something else they are straight up about it and i respect that.
I tend to not assume someone is punk or trying to act punk based on a Fashion statement. I see a mohawk about every 10th person when i walk down the street and this is so NOT a punk City . Or do you think white kids who wear hip hop gear REALLY think they are black and are fooling us all? LOL ;)
Fashion has become so mixed up and CONVOLUTED LOL that you really cant use that as an argument these days. Although I will say its kinda sad. I liked it back in the day when i would SEE someone and know without a doubt that was A punk mother fucker! LOL i mean real punk. NOW a days, you Cant do that.

well i think the media has chosen to portray them that way and thats why they were very vocal about it. the other bands dont Give a fuck they are getting paid. although the guys from blink have dipped into several genres of music outside of their band. anyway its all good i actually read an interview long ago by them and just have mad respect for their crazy asses since.

i had , HAD, a friend recently, really good lookin guy, very earthy, a taoist etc. got a bit of an ego recently (good taoist eh? LOL) and he went and got a very nice LOOKING mohawk it made me sick. what a waste of a good mohawk and now he thinks he's like some kind of bad ass. as if the mohawk has some how transformed him.
anyway to me thats a total turn off. definitely dont LIKE the fact that MIDDLE class white america has to steal every fashion statement cuz they are too lame to dress themselves, just saying it happens and its hard to know who the fuck you are looking at anymore these days! definitely cant judge a book by its cover anymore. used to be able to get away with that.

I don't really care that much what they say, it's more about how they (or anyone) present(s) themselves.
im just sayin the MASSES are IGNORANT ASSES!
so to you punk is mroe about presentation? see to me thats maybe 20% cuz anyone can post as a punk but can they back it up in every other way? or maybe im not followin ya?

I certainly don't want to get into an argument about music. We've all got common ground, it sounds like.
I like the guitar player in Blink's Signature Strat. One pickup, one knob. That's a punk guitar.

oh I dont mind a good debate about music with the right people. especially seeing who's discussing it both of you at least can put forth a good argument. all thought i think the actual Topic about poser punk bands we all pretty much feel the same way about.

no i understand. just was trying to shed some light...
Heres a question since you aren't familiar with their music, which is a bit silly happy and stupid (There music not you LOL). in what way would their music imply or not imply they were posing? Since they aren't trying to be punk. meaning im trying to see what their music would need to sound like for you to think they WERE posing rather then not. Just Curious. Figured since you hadnt heard them yet itd would be interesting to know what your view would be say if they actually sounded hard core punk vs. sounding not punk at all.
anyway im just replyin to what your sayin no worries i know you aren't as familiar with them. im not a fan of posers myself. I think the thing i like most about them is they are just funny as fuck. I dont think in 10 years they made a single political or social statement in their music. Which is one reason they broke up, one of the Band members wanted a bit more depth in the music he was playing.
Title: Linkin Park
Post by: ZenAgent on May 21, 2007, 01:02:26 AM
I saw Linkin Park on a late night show this weekend...twice, they played. They make the most vapid shit ever to rape my ears. Forget what I said about Blink 182 (except about Mark Hoppus looking like Wally Cleaver), Linkin Park make music that continuous, long-term exposure to will cause your genitals to blacken and spontaneously detach. I've heard a rumour Linkin crew is a "Christian Rock" band. It matters not, I couldn't pick out any lyrics, and they sucked based on their musical merits alone.
Stryper was a Christian Metal band, and a guy once showed me dressing room pics of those "Jeezus lovin' boys" doing hits from an impressively-sized bong. There is nothing wrong with consulting the Most Holy Pacifying Smoke - actually, a blessing and righteousness is bestowed upon the True Viper. The Stryper boys, however, cried like pussies when those party pictures found their way into the Stigmata-bearing palms of the "Jesus Jams" crowd. The late Rev. Jerry Falwell didn't find those images humorous at all. The late Rev. Falwell...excuse me, I really get kicks hearing that, over and over...the deceased Rev. Falwell. I can't stop giggling....
To Hell With The Devil! Unless he has the true, mighty, and uplifting muggles, of course. Stoned as a bat I might well be, but hearing "Christian Rock" will give me "the fear", or one fuck-awful anxiety attack. Gimme T2, or Keith Relf's Armageddon if I wanna get lifted. The Butthole Surfers are the ticket if I want to confront the vile urges of my Id.
Next week: Hawaiian Baby Wood Rose seeds and other little-known hallucinogens guaranteed to take you to the next musical level, as long as you're not listening to Linkin Park.

God, those guys SUCK!!!!! I endured a set by them during 2001 while I awited the reunion lineup of Black Sabbath. Thank God for heroin, loose women, and crowd violence to take my attention off of the vapid noise emanating from the PA while those turds befouled the air.

Post by: ZenAgent on May 22, 2007, 07:36:46 PM
Jerry Falwell still dead, and I feel fine.
This is way off-topic, but I posted it on Free For All and since we've been savoring the sweet sound of "the late, deceased, so fuckin' very well and truly dead Jerry Falwell", I thought it should go here, too, and I reveal the secret shame of the Zen family: My Uncle E., the "Charismatic Evangelical Baptist Minister", or preacher, whatever the fuck they call 'em.
Falwell: My first time was in an outhouse outside Lynchburg, Virginia.
Interviewer: Wasn’t it a little cramped?
Falwell: Not after I kicked the goat out.
Interviewer: I see. You must tell me all about it.
Falwell: I never really expected to make it with Mom, but then after she showed all the other guys in town such a good time, I figured, "What the hell!"
Interviewer: But your Mom? Isn’t that a little odd?
Falwell: I don’t think so. Looks don’t mean that much to me in a woman.
Interviewer: Go on.
Falwell: Well, we were drunk off our God-fearing asses on Campari, ginger ale and soda—that’s called a Fire and Brimstone—at the time. And Mom looked better than a Baptist whore with a $100 donation.
Interviewer: Campari in the crapper with Mom. How interesting. Well, how was it?
Falwell: The Campari was great but Mom passed out before I could come.
Interviewer: Did you ever try it again?
Falwell: Sure. Lots of times. But not in the outhouse. Between Mom and the shit, the flies were too much to bear.
Interviewer: We meant the Campari.
Falwell: Oh, yeah, I always get sloshed before I go to the pulpit. You don’t think I could lay down all that bullshit sober do you?
Campari, like all liquor, was made to mix you up. It's a light, 48-proof, refreshing spirit, just mild enough to make you drink too much before you know you're schnockered. For your first time, mix it with orange juice. Or maybe some white wine. Then you won't remember anything the next morning. Campari. The mixable that smarts.
There is a dark secret in the House of Zen...my uncle went to some Evangelical school for preachers, and on the future Bible-thumpers graduation day, Jerry Falwell descended from the heavens (in a helicopter) and gave a five minute speech, then laid hands on the new recruits and ordained them all. Twenty minutes was all it took for fifty fools to get Big Jer's blessing and a diploma.
Falwell is (was) a hero to my uncle. My uncle also enjoys telling tasteless racist jokes, refuses to shake hands with Jews, and was forced to flee in shame from a very large church he controlled when the congregation discovered Uncle E. was fucking one of his flock. A deacon's wife, too, which made it all the worse. Yeah, the congregation was mad, but Uncle E.'s wife was even more pissed...
Oh, well. My father and I are considered the "black sheep" of the family, since we'd both rather have a boiling oil enema than enter some Charismatic Evangelist shithole. Considering how Uncle E. behaved with that one sheep in his flock, I stay the fuck away from him.
My wife thinks it's odd that I'm well-versed in the Bible, I could give most Theology students a run for their money. I started studying it when I was twelve for the sole purpose of being able to kick my uncle's ass in a debate on the "Word of Gawd". Never happened, although I did refer to the Bible as a "pus-bag filled with lies and contradictions" right to his pompous, self-righteous face. I think he shat himself. I only partially agree with that analysis of the Bible, that comment was made in a show of teenage bravado.
You can be assured ol' Uncle E. is convinced I'm in league with the Great Horned One. Maybe I should send an email to Uncle E. expressing my sympathies on the loss of Falwell, and add a picture of the blubbery founder of the Moral Majority getting a pitchfork up his flabby ass. I mean, Falwell's got a lot to answer for, but getting the Christian right to throw their support and votes to Dubya Bush is a sin so fucked-up that Falwell's pathetic soul will be eternally tormented in a fashion so vile, Satan himself pukes at the sight.
In conclusion, good riddance to bad rubbish. The one thing that could make this news sweeter would be the discovery of Pat Robertson's naked body surrounded by issues of Hustler, with the cause of death listed as "auto-erotic asphyxiation".

Anything that was really punk would not be heard on the radio or seen on TV. The Sex Pistols were a product of the collapse of England's economy and it's resultant misery for young people. Sid Viscious couldn't play or sing, but he wore a swastika and shot heroin. In the end the Pistols turned out to be one in a series of products sold by Malcolm Mclaren, after latex underwear but before Adam Ant. In the U.S., the worst felcher I recall from the late eighties was Buster Poindexter, ex New York Doll. Johnny Ramone was a Rebuttlickan who liked G.W. My buddy sent me a disc a while ago with all kinds of stuff on it, and there was a live recording of someone introducing a song and praising Minor Threat. Punk was iconoclastic, and now these guys sound like Steve Allen tugging one out in honor of the Chairman. My favorite has to be London Calling being used to sell Jaguar. Or Bob Dylan selling the Bank of Montreal. I can't wait to see how Sandinista can be used to sell something.

Johnny Ramone was the business head of the Ramones. They did record Bonzo goes to Bitburg, so they had some understanding of the Vegetable in Chief. Johnny Ramone was just another right wing show biz cat like Bruce Willis or Ronald Reagan or Toby Keith. The MTV generation provided the marching meat for Deset Storm. Advertising your admiration for the GOP was hardly going to piss off everyone.

I doubt anyone really gave a fuck about Johnny's politics, particularly during the first decade of the Ramones' career, outside of a few punk rock 'punker-than-thou' scenesters. I guess if you live long enough, you see a lot of ironies in life, "Lust For Life" being used to sell cruises to square middle class couples, and all that. Most of the kids I see wearing Ramones t-shirts from Hot Topic couldn't name you three Ramones songs. I don't know, the whole idea of looking to entertainers for political guidance seems kinda stupid to me, voting for actors seems even more stupid, I mean, wtf? I think voting for pornograpy publishers who believe in free speech is the way to go, but I know I'm in such a small minority that I usually don't even vote. It didn't work the last few times I tried it, so why bother, right?

Looking to anyone for political guidance is pretty lame. My point I guess is that show biz is show biz. It's circus for the masses. Believing in the word of entertainers leads to widespread dipshitism like the folks who claim that the hippies stopped the Viet Nam War. Last time I checked the U.S. fought until '73, and backed the ARVN until '75, long after the hippies had begun to figure out how to find a place in the economic power structure, except for the ones who fried their brains on acid or joined cults. "By the time we got to Woodstock I'd taken half a million mics!" blah blah blah!

I figured it out Froderik! It was "Say, Say, Say"
I'll admit it, I actually LOVED this song. I was a wee one when it hit the charts and I used to watch the video at my BFF Dawn's house. They had cable and "MTV" before we did. My God how long ago was THAT?! 1982? 83? 84? 85?
I was SIKED when my dad ordered our cable. A nice lady came to our home and wrote down all the channels we wanted so they could be programed into our box. I got the "Disney Channel" "MTV" and "HBO" . My dad LOVED "HBO" because of the boxing fights and new movies!
You were the shit back in the day if your parents could afford cable or broke down and got cable to shut you up. So began the decade(s) of using a TV to babysit your wee ones.
:em: This is what kids (parents too..) began looking like after they watched their brand new cable shows and channel surfed non stop.
I think EVERYONE lived infront of the TV when their cable was finally installed. No more channels 2-13. One never imagined that something like cable would come around. We were so content with our original 13 channels that we never complained for that something better that did NOT even exsist. YET. Now however if your box goes out or your acct. gets cancelled for X, Y, Z reasons you go through withdrawls until it comes back on.
The TV's made now a days do not even "support" a regular, bunny eared antenna. You need one with an adapter for your cable ready tv set. Even when it is installed you only get a few good channels that play the news and sitcoms in syndicate like "Seinfeld" and "The Steve Harvey" show. You also get the old movies at 8:00 pm.
Then it is yukky infomercials or a religious, bible thumpin made for televison church service program that offers you a special green prayer cloth that will make your dreams come true as long as you pray with it, send it back to be blessed and include a "tithe" of 60.00$ + dollars with it. It is called "Sowing your seeds" actually. Your hard earned 60.00$+ dollars needs to be sent in right away to "show" God and others that you're serious about the things you need help with and/or pray about.
You put the raggedy green cloth under your pillow, pray with it in your hands and sleep with it. That along with the cash will get God to answer your payers!
PHEW! That was took a lot out of me!
Here's the song lyrics in case any of you want to sing along. If you remember this song that means you liked it too! LOL.....
Peace, love and happiness!
I need to go save some poor bunny rabbits from starving and dehydration. Their owner(s) are crackheads! Not literally but close enough. Assholes.
Say, say, say what you want but don't play games with my affection Take, take, take what you need but don't leave me with no direction All alone I sit home by the phone waiting for you baby Through the years how can you stand to hear my pleading for you dear? You know I'm crying, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Now go, go, go where you want but don't leave me here forever. You, you, you stay away so long girl I see you never What can I do girl, to get through to you? Cause I love you baby. Standing here baptised in all my tears, baby through the years, You know I'm crying, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
You never ever worry and you never shed a tear. You're saying that my love ain't real just look at my face, these tears ain't drying.
You, you, you can nvever say that I'm not the one who really loves you. I pray, pray, pray ev'ry day that you'll see things, girl, like I do. What can I do girl, to get through to you?

We used to play a game where I worked called "stick it". The idea was to wander past a co-worker humming or singing a really lame song that was a big hit. Lame or not, the melodies were intrusive. Normally the person exposed to it had the tune "stuck" in their head for the day. Some truly "sticky" songs that people hated to have on their mental music loop.
There was once a guy that I worked with that would get into a mental musical loop and was very easily persuaded on whatever song would be stuck.
Early one day I passed him and he was whistling some song he had heard on his ride home, a little later I decided to check to see if I could mess with him and implanted "Howard Jones" Things can only get better. Shortly afterwards I passed him and sure enough he was whistling that tune, so at this point I got evil.... I implanted the song from "Gilligan's Island."
That afternoon at the time clock he approached me and asked me never to do that to him again. ::roflmao:: ::roflmao:: ::roflmao:: ::roflmao:: ::roflmao:: ::roflmao::

I think that was "Ebony & Ivory."
I don't think I recall the video, but I know those two recorded that song together... ::puke::
I'm kinda late getting to this discussion, but let us not forget another McCartney/Jackson duet - "The Doggone Girl Is Mine"
Goddamn that doggone song.

Worse than that - Lionel Richie and Alabama doing "Deep River Woman". Reach for the bag of retching, Lionel tried to crossover into Country music. Result - complete failure and the source of ill-spirited jokes for ages. I've heard Lionel Richie's looking for a comeback project, and he's thinking about hooking up with a Klezzmer group for a hybrid-MOR Soul/Yiddish jam, "Schleppin' on the Ceiling".

After careful consideration, I nominate ALL the songs contained on the "Songs 4 Worship" CD that they incessantly advertised on BBC America last night during the Dr. Who marathon I was otherwise enjoying. At least it gave me an excuse for a smoke break.

Quote from: ""The Psychedelic Furs""
"The Ghost In You"
I know it's an old one, but this abominable piece of crap has been getting played more than once a week on a local station here in the Balto metro area, I guess because some subnormal life forms tend to like played-out mediocre SHIT from the 80's a little too much, or the DJs just think that they do. Blimey, this bloody fuckin' song stinks to high heaven, and it pains me not a little to say so as The Furs were once a really good band when they made their first brave leaps across the pond to play places like The Marble Bar (http://http://www.citypaper.com/news/story.asp?id=3556) (Baltimore's CBGBs), situated in the basement of the beloved and seedy ol' Congress Hotel. I got to see this band before "Pretty in Pink" was even a song, let alone a soft-porn Teen Romance flick.... I saw them put on a great show at that lovely dive back in 1981, on the heels of their first (and only good) release, with Stiv Bators and The Dead Boys opening no less! But alas, after their first (and eponymous), prophetic, almost stream-of-conscious album, this band didn't take too long to swirl itself straight down the shitter to Bad 80's-ville.
Ah, but that first release by the Psychedelic Furs was (still is) as good a first album as just about any.. from its brilliant and driving opening cut "India" to the playfully sardonic "We Love You," to its timelessly relevant "Soap Commercial" right into the passionate invective of "Imitation of Christ," to the pre-hip-hop thunderous beat of "Wedding Song" right on up to its steady closer, "Flowers"; and what a great fucking set to see live...
Anyone here ever dig this album? Just curious.
But man[/b], "The Ghost In You" is about as haunting as a drunken limey spectre snorting coke somewhere south of shitty... ::noway::

I know they were in the middle of the 'music revolution' for years, and made major differences, paving the way for stars of the '80's and on...: Donna Summer Anne Murray Cherforgive me girl-you wereamazing Just stop already.
Tina Turner and Diana Ross had the good taste not to push it. Aretha's right on the line, as always!

"The Night Chicago Died" by Paper Lace
"Where da Hood At?" by that guy who sounds a lot like Treach from Naughty by Nature
"Do They Know It's Christmastime At All?" by those Oxfam (Oxford University Famine Relief Fund) popstars. No, they don't. Moat of Africa is polytheist, Great Mother Religion, or Muslim, so they don't really care, either.
"Yummie Yummie Yummie I've Got Love In My Tummy." I kid you not. This was top-40 in the 1970s.

Anyone remember where this thread left off?
Google's cache showed a 'page 7' linked to from the (cached) page 6, but there was no page 7 anymore...
