bruno mars got arrested for cocaine possession

forks whats no. 1 in yr heart?

i don't really gaf if anyone sets aside the 4 minutes a month it would take to keep up with such things, i just think it's funny when three posts on an ilm thread are the magic motivator that suddenly makes it a pressing concern

currently Fiona Apple's Hot Knife is no 1 in my heart (thanks maura)
given the tremendous number of hours die hards on ilx spend here, it doesn't seem odd to me that this is where I get the nudge to try something new... that's ilx's purpose!

teach us how to live, some dude

and since this thread has magic powers and everybody (including those of you like me who thought there was no reason to ever listen to a fiona apple song again) should try it, here:

(btw, i prefer to believe the lyrics are "if i'm butter than he's a hot knife / he makes my heart into cinnamon toast")

as if i'm a big enough clown to become aware of something through this website - nice try but i'll be turning my radio on now thank you very much

hot knife is one of 2 songs i actually like on that album

it's one of the 2 songs i can remember on that album

lol otm

"Criminal" is a jam but idg Fiona Apple

Bruno turds. peace

what the hell is this fiona appla bullshit

Lay off the coke,man

if you don't want your fav record hated on maybe don't bring it up out of the blue in an unrelated thread fyi

lol at u taking me serious and missing the thread ref

i didn't really understand the coke post but i assume your intention wasn't to turn the thread into a fiona apple hatefest either way

i'm playing the long game

so is Barack Obama.

i really like "when i was your man"

got a "someone like you 2K13" vibe off it

i should check out this album

"if i knew" is amazingly great

lol.

he was probably one of the few tolerable parts of the show last night even tho he sang "gorilla"

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/nfl-reportedly-picks-bruno-mars-perform-super-bowl-183507191--nfl.html

lol. does he have enough recognizable songs to fill up a set?

on second thought i guess if justin timberlake can perform at the vmas for like an hour straight anything is possible

I saw Bruno Mars live a few weeks ago and he was great. I can't hate.

yeah he's a good fit, he could do soul/mj covers and it would be fine

you only need a handful of recognizable tracks really

The Stones only did 3 songs, and most of the others do 4.

yeah, he has five #1s, he could a medley of shortened versions of all them and easily fill the 15 minute slot.

Plus bust out another cameo a la Sting, or one of the songs someone else had a hit with.

I hope his halftime show features actual gorillas

oh god i am really scared that "The Lazy Song" video is going to be recreated in the Super Bowl halftime show now

I may loathe his voice more than any living creature's, more than I loathe Alicia Keys' these days. Ubiquity's a bitch.

i'm more pro-Bruno than anti-Bruno now, Unorthodox Jukebox won me over big time

hope stays away from that song altogether xxp

hope *he

Super Bowl halftime show, huh?

Anecdotal evidence has it that people were largely impressed. He's no one I listen to on purpose, but when I saw him last year, it was basically exactly like the halftime show, but for 90 minutes or whatever. He and his band are really good on stage. Why were the Chili Peppers there at all?

so people too old or jaded to care who bruno mars is would find someone with name recognition

He's got the James Brown moves down.

And the Police style song

my mom had never heard of him and is now a fan

he drummed!

He was good on the drums. I still like nothing about his music but I came away very very impressed by him as a performer.

He had an unfathomable degree of perfection to his performance while still managing to seem loose.

i loved the drum solo opening

also his drummer is his brother iirc
