Was just speaking to a colleague about her mother who is going through dementia issues. Right after we finished "Hotel California" started playing on my phone. Can't help now but hear that song as an allegory for dementia.

Got into a little argument about the story of a song. Am I right?

 

The hooker survived the accident and was the second preacher's mother, yes? That's why there's only three crosses?

Yes

Flying Lotus is outstanding, but he will never reach the heights of Los Angeles and Cosmogramma. Cosmogramma in particular is exceptional.

I think that is my least favorite, but only because I love the chaotic frenzied nature of Flying Lotus. Quiet is great, but more subdued. But I still love it! All of his albums have been bangers.

Danny Vera needs to get more attention outside of Holland.

My mother in law has been playing a lot of Shakira lately. She is fantastic.

I never really liked this song before but this fairly rough version is really nice. Those weary backing vocals during the chorus add so much to it.

Why do all charity singles have to have a rap verse?

 

[METALMAN]

they needed to give Dizzee Rascal a bit in Band Aid 20. you can't just get Dizzee Rascal to sing.

That one Gary Barlow did yesterday had Shaggy singing. I think. It was bad.

What makes it better is their vocalist's reaction on social media. SPOILER: he didn't take it so well.

[Gorka]

This is my favourite bad cover.

He sounds like a toddler screaming for the toilet when he says "number two"... And every other line ending tbh.

Didn't know where to post this so I'll just do it here. Apparently Millie Small died a couple days ago. Not sure if there are many fans on these boards. Maybe not. But I liked her. Cute songs. Easy poppy ska/r&b. Famous for her sixties hit My Boy Lollipop covered by many other bands, including the Bad Manners in the eighties who made a cool version of it.

AND now Florian from Kraftwerk has died. He was great.

If you take out the vocals then "Bulletproof" by La Roux could absolutely be a Sonic The Hedgehog soundtrack song.

So with the accusations against Bassnectar and Tom now gone from Kasabian and in court yesterday. I feel more than a bit iffy listening to either. Is it fair to judge their music on their personal behaviour? Are there other examples, where an artist behaviour have turned you of his, her or their music?
Kanye?
Pete Doherty?
