Is there any way one of the coders can add a feature so that Whiney and Deej can't ever post on the same thread again?

in fairness to deej he had nothing to do with this current iteration of Whiney cluelessness

lol, i'm sorry i'm being such a troll on this thread this morning, i'll stop
the latest turn of this thread is like a morning cup of coffee
i feel like i can start my day now
― gimme schefter (J0rdan S.), Friday, 10 December 2010 17:51 (thirteen years ago) link
anyway
as much as i love the deadboy remix of "fireworks" the "official girl" remix is pretty dreadful as matt attests

it's funny that it seems like everyone agreed in the kanye thread this was a record w/ no singles, and yet here we are & every list is putting "power" or "runaway" (this one is esp rmde to me) in their top 10s
i'll big up fact for "shut it down" tho, that's a jam (altho as is typical w/ a small percentage of r&b nowadays, the leaked version was better than the one that ended up on the album)
― gimme schefter (J0rdan S.), Friday, 10 December 2010 17:55 (thirteen years ago) link
has that hot chip album made a lot of lists, im too lazy to look. Sort of craptacular that.

it's their best album!
― gimme schefter (J0rdan S.), Friday, 10 December 2010 17:56 (thirteen years ago) link
i think runaway makes more sense as a single to vote for! its weird in line w/ the rest of the album, and def feels less generic, for all its flaws, than 'pwer'
― lotta diamonds ... but prolly more display names (deej), Friday, 10 December 2010 17:57 (thirteen years ago) link
if youre the kind of person who likes the album then 'runaway' is def the kind of song you would be feeling, is what im saying

^^^ this rings true

remind me of my place of white privilege
i don't really like the nat'l much. but why, exactly, do you say their music "reinforces its audiences' notions about white privilege"?

i think mainly i dislike it cuz it ain't really my bag.
― Let me explore your musky garden. (chrisv2010), Friday, 10 December 2010 18:01 (thirteen years ago) link
oh, sorry, didn't see your "i'm being a troll" post above.
xp to myself, i guess.
i feel like everyone just anointed "runaway" after the vmas but it's really one of the least exciting songs on the CD
w/ "power" i at least grasp the bigness of it, even if i don't think the song is really all that
― gimme schefter (J0rdan S.), Friday, 10 December 2010 18:02 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, "Power" feels so much more like a single to me that "Runaway".

I can see why people would be going apeshit for Beach House but really this is not my bag at all.
Basically I would play this if I wanted to psych myself up into a stabbing fury, only I would then run out and stab Beach House.
― BO (DJP), Friday, 10 December 2010 18:14 (thirteen years ago) link
not going near Sufjan because lol Sufjan, my opinion on him is very clear and unlikely to change unless someone replaces him with, like, Fluke
― BO (DJP), Friday, 10 December 2010 18:15 (thirteen years ago) link
why do the kings of leon make these lists.
these lists need more Drums.
― Let me explore your musky garden. (chrisv2010), Friday, 10 December 2010 18:19 (thirteen years ago) link
wow I hate The Black Keys a lot, too
I thought I sort of liked them...? Or am I thinking of The Black Kids?
oh no, I just played the wrong song, "Tighten Up" is the one I sort of like
― BO (DJP), Friday, 10 December 2010 18:20 (thirteen years ago) link
i agree, but why did you capitalize drums? (xpost)
― some dude, Friday, 10 December 2010 18:21 (thirteen years ago) link
those Black bands all look alike to you, huh
okay I feel compelled to adore Yeasayer just for this video:

― BO (DJP), Friday, 10 December 2010 18:23 (thirteen years ago) link
as a long time black keys fan, this album is meh for me. i guess i only like thickfreakness and the big come up.
and i agree with Dan on the Deerhunter....don't get it.

I definitely would have had Voice Of The Seven Thunders in my end of year lists had I heard it at the time. Starting the depressing business of finding out what else I've missed today.
― Carl Jung Jeezy (Doran), Saturday, 11 December 2010 12:33 (thirteen years ago) link
Doran, Voice of the Seven Thunders is my number 1 for the year. Amazing record, and having months and months with it only makes it better.
― EZ Snappin, Saturday, 11 December 2010 12:44 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, someone played it to me at ATP and sheared the top of my head off.

Hmmm, checking out "The Burning Mountain" and immediately liking the middle eastern flavored electric guitar.
