'don't look back' is charmingly ponderous but it's true that I can only stand it about 1/3 of the time

The moment when that slap bass enters the song = best of the year.

on "Do You"? yes, totally
― some dude, Sunday, 9 December 2012 13:47 (eleven years ago) link
Ok yeah the bass is awesome
― send Lawyers (Drugs A. Money), Sunday, 9 December 2012 15:19 (eleven years ago) link
the contrast between the glistening blissed out vibe of the song and the drugs'n'bass is what makes it all work
― some dude, Sunday, 9 December 2012 16:31 (eleven years ago) link
yall love it cos it sounds like steely dan, come clean already

i really should finally listen to steely dan

!!
― 乒乓, Sunday, 9 December 2012 17:27 (eleven years ago) link
if something sounded like steely dan i'd readily admit that that's why i like it!
― some dude, Sunday, 9 December 2012 17:28 (eleven years ago) link
god now i really would give anything to hear The Dukes Of September run through "Do You" now though
― some dude, Sunday, 9 December 2012 17:30 (eleven years ago) link
is that a demurral then
i don't and i won't but if i were to delete one thing off this lp it'd be 'candles in the wind', p much hate that shit in any version
― r|t|c, Sunday, 9 December 2012 17:31 (eleven years ago) link
the keyboards and drums on the 'live' version sound so gross and depressing
― some dude, Sunday, 9 December 2012 17:32 (eleven years ago) link
removing that would also unencumber 'pussy is mine' from deep cut to light outro closer
ah fuckit ima do it
― r|t|c, Sunday, 9 December 2012 17:35 (eleven years ago) link
haha yes
― k3vin k., Sunday, 9 December 2012 18:38 (eleven years ago) link
i would guess will hate the dan but can't be sure.
― k3vin k., Sunday, 9 December 2012 18:39 (eleven years ago) link
i dunno, lex likes tom waits and leonard cohen, could be a good fit
― some dude, Sunday, 9 December 2012 18:42 (eleven years ago) link

― 乒乓, Sunday, 9 December 2012 18:52 (eleven years ago) link

It can't have too many guitars or "rock" so scratch the first two.

one of the few times i get mad at the sonic limitations of my car stereo
― some dude, Sunday, 9 December 2012 19:15 (eleven years ago) link
this album sounds a lot better on speakers than on headphones imo, and like to a weird extent
― flopson, Sunday, 9 December 2012 20:06 (eleven years ago) link
yeah it's true
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 9 December 2012 20:08 (eleven years ago) link
I dont know how I forgot about the slap bass; I do love that. Was way rong and take it all back.

yes this sounds incredible on good speakers so many things i missed listening through my headphones until i put this on on my computer, and these speakers aren't even THAT good

imo it's all about the interaction between the slap bass and those heavy drums. it's the rhythms of late-90s r&b but with a completely different sonic palette.
as far as "Pussy Is Mine", this is all that really needs to be said about its greatness:

reminds me of a hilarious Wendy & Lisa interview
Did you first think Prince was gay? Lisa: He was little and kinda prissy and everything. But he's so not gay.Wendy: He's a girl, for sure, but he's not gay. He looked at me like a gay woman would look at another woman.Lisa: Totally. He's like a fancy lesbian.
― some dude, Monday, 10 December 2012 01:13 (eleven years ago) link
haha, I was going to say "like Prince!"
I'm totally willing to settle for the "Miguel is a fancy lesbian" explanation of God, the Universe, and Everything.

his guitarist
― max, Monday, 10 December 2012 15:21 (eleven years ago) link
the WORST guitar face
in every performance/video, always, the worst
yeah he really is mr. guitar face that guy
― J0rdan S., Monday, 10 December 2012 15:22 (eleven years ago) link
just listened to this record finally last night, its really good!
― ciderpress, Monday, 10 December 2012 15:24 (eleven years ago) link
Miguel is definitely a fancier lesbian than Ellen
love how "Adorn" live performances have progressively gotten more swagged out over the last few months
― some dude, Monday, 10 December 2012 15:25 (eleven years ago) link
Nice to know that hits matter.
― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 10 December 2012 15:31 (eleven years ago) link
also annoying that miguel always looks fly and his musicians are like -- the guitarist looks like hes in a christian rock band. and the fucking dj is wearing an amerlia earhart hat?
― max, Monday, 10 December 2012 15:34 (eleven years ago) link
enforce a dress code, miguel
sup ellen!

yahhhh, those guitar faces have been a thorn in my side all year
― rap乒 4-tay (The Reverend), Monday, 10 December 2012 17:03 (eleven years ago) link
how can you guys even pay attention to that stuff
― some dude, Monday, 10 December 2012 17:05 (eleven years ago) link
now i'm scared to see shipley's drummer face
― J0rdan S., Monday, 10 December 2012 17:06 (eleven years ago) link
ha i just mean the camera's on miguel 90% of the time and he's amazing, i wouldn't have even noticed the band members if y'all weren't talking about them
