(I used to work with a dude whose initials are JN who recently started a Facebook group talking about how Scott Brown had betrayed Republicans by voting to allow debate on the Democrats' jobs bill go forward so large chunks of this thread are very disorienting to me until I remember we're talking about everyone's favorite squawking fae)

I thought I'd mentioned this before on this thread

Anyway now when I read all of this dude's Facebook updates, I hear Joanna Newsom singing them. Most of them are horoscope updates.

and no, I do not hug him

do you rub his unicorn horn

what, no

well once but I was drunk

we've all been there: eight beers in, rubbing your pal's unicorn horn, dreaming of a better life

I'm no big Newsom fan, disliked her before this album, think it could be cut down significantly.

But this thread brings the stupid like nothing I've seen on ILM before. Impressive.

hi, joanna.

glad you could make it

soundslike a big newsom fan to me

have one on me, how about no

sometimes i think we need a rolling GRAND PRONOUNCEMENTS thread for ppl who parachute in at the end with shit like this.

think you should start a thread called "rolling GRAND PRONOUNCEMENTS thread for ppl who parachute in at the end with shit like this" tbf

half of it would be posts from me ;_;

hoomers

okay if Hooters play Joanna Newsom as their restaurant music that would maybe be the greatest thing ever (just slightly over world piece and ending hunger, in case thomp was wondering)

thanks dan

world piece

ok then here is a less tetchy response to this post:

nothing has been getting me more furious lately than ppl claiming "good intentions paving co." is a "pop song" when all they mean is it has drums you can bob yr head to

― call all destroyer

well, no, it's a 'pop song' in that it: is catchy, airy, light; has a memorable and hooky melody with a verse-chorus-verse structure; presents an emotional situation which will be familiar to the majority of listeners; doesn't exploit out-of-time or out-of-tune sections for effect

if someone says it's a 'pop song' in the context of this record / joanna newsom in general that's a fairly straightforward proposition - we're talking compared to 'only skin' or the one with the "sweet appraising eye of the dog" bit

it's also self-evident that they don't mean 'pop song' in the sense 'will suddenly be sharing radio space with ke$sha and lady gaga'; it's a related sense of 'pop' to the ones people use when talking about big star or whatever. or guided by voices.

also, i actually did stay in to argue about indie music on the internet rather than protesting the occupation of fallujah; that wasn't meant to imply 'you would be a better person if you did this'. i can see how that wasn't really obvious.
