the diabolical BIZ MARKIE singles poll

"Get On the Garbus"

had never heard of roomrunner before until just now, i guess that's a heads up that i should avoid them?

nostalgia wants me to vote "Make the Music With Your Mouth, Biz"

I am not a true rap head, so I'm just gonna spam the hell out of this thread

make the music with your frog, bs

Roomrunner is a great band fwiw

oh ok cool i'll check them out

does tUne Yards cover Just a Friend or something?

could vote for any of the first dozen, really

can't believe Alone Again was not a single

yeah everyone's definitely laughing AT hipster usic getting a perfect storm of butthurt out of Roomrunner exploring his sub-Onion right to enjoy every piece of pop culture no matter how garbussy

I consider myself a pretty decent reader of prose and I literally have no idea what this could possibly mean

glad it wasn't just me lol

i was afraid his logorrhea was heading away from dennis miller and into mark leyner territory lately, but then he sprinted right past that into jagger country

how i babelfish it down to an extent
- whiney sees himself as a hipster version of ilx poster usic
- he considers some dude's posting itt as getting more and more butthurt
- refers to some dude as "Roomrunner", an obscure baltimore band reference
- "sub-Onion right to enjoy every piece of pop culture" - apparently some dude is guilty of something the Onion is notorious for i.e. enjoying all pop culture
- "garbussy" - 'garbagey' combined with something that probably refers to something else, some kind of "trending topic" perhaps

whiney, how'd i do?

guys, it's hard to write coherently when your eyes are running red with the narcissism of small differences. We've all been there.

'vapors'

garbus is the last name of the tune-yards lady, other than that i think you nailed it

i'm def "running red" with the calm and measured way that i post in all lowercase except for the ALL CAPS parts that make some dude cry real human being (no college) tears about his blood sugar. croup, you can feel free to join him in the butthurt brony brigade. the next time i CHANG CHANG CHANG CHANG CHANG CHANG CHANG

oh noes adhom.fm how dare he

lol @ no college

my...blood sugar? am0n you got any guesses on that one, i'm lost

I think he just called you fat

that would be strange considering he's met me, but at this point i make no assumptions of logic

gonna go have breakfast and maybe try to listen to some biz later, seeya.

vapors over nobody beats the biz

i was just explaining why i was leaving the thread in a matter of fact way so that it didn't seem like i was doing a dramatic ::storms out:: thing! i can't have breakfast?

hes making fun of your diabetes? i dunno

hard to pick between vapors and this

sorry i mistook you for anything other than calm and measured, whiney

thanks for trying m0n, any thoughts on 'human being (no college) tears'?

college students aren't human

remember when wayne was taking classes at the university of houston?

was hoping the 'blood sugar' thing would resolve itself in a red hot chi peps reference later in the post tbh

or does it mean that college ppl cry all the time?

(citation needed)

or that 'human being' is a fancy pants college turn of phrase? i'm grasping at straws here

Whiney! I'm with you in Rockland
where you're madder than I am
I'm with you in Rockland
where you must feel very strange
I'm with you in Rockland
where you "run red" with the calm and measured way that you post in all lowercase except for the ALL CAPS parts that make some dude cry real human being (no college) tears about his blood sugar

guys, college is gay

still lolling @ am0n's perfectly placed "vapors" vote

kind of agree w/ sisi about "Spring Again" being a jam

the chorus of "spring again" is a little too much for me

I believe it was a reference to this

jesus that's a deep rabbit hole to go down, mystery solved i guess

forgot how much i love "let me turn you on," what a great song

Built To Spill's "Twin Falls" has a weirdly similar vocal

whiney g ferlinghettin real in the BIZ MARKIE poll thread

Bennie & the Jets was a single, your poll is invalid, voted for Nobody Beats the Biz anyway.

I see you working croup

Bennie & the Jets was a single

it was a flexidisc inside a magazine

...which is to say, a single.

a single is something that's eligible for the singles chart imo. I don't think a flexi is, as you're not buying the record, you're buying the magazine & you get the flexi with it. a flexi is its own thing. there's disparate us/uk rules that muddy the waters (your single is ineligible for the charts in the UK if it has more than one song per side) but I think "released as a standalone 7" is a fair enough rule for "single"

My jukebox full of the backs of cereal boxes begs to differ with you. But, as I said, I voted "Nobody Beats" anyway, despite the draconian music-business-insider pedantry of this poll. It is also a better song than Bennie, but by just a hair.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

No love for Pickin Boogers? I love that song.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.
