a not take if you will

valleys of your mind (mh), Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:49 (eleven years ago)

ronson song is the only one that's driven me to the complaints metathread so far, so fair play to jho's cold takedown, think it might be a song where the onus is on the defence ;)

telling like hot takes (imago), Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:50 (eleven years ago)

song is truly the defintion of faking the funk folks

lag∞n, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:52 (eleven years ago)

why do you hate Michelle Pfeiffer

I find Uptown Funk quite enjoyable, but I also praise it for saving me from further overplay of Locked Out of Heaven (which I never need to hear again ever).

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:52 (eleven years ago)

locked out of heaven >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> uptown funk

These guys are still going, huh?

emil.y, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:55 (eleven years ago)

i think this is residue from 2013.

otm

MikoMcha, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:55 (eleven years ago)

Does that mean all of Haim's singles placed in these polls now?

Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:55 (eleven years ago)

a new song or are their fans just voting for anything that's vaguely eligible?

lex pretend, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:56 (eleven years ago)

didn't place last year, released as a single in feb 14 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

gr8080, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:56 (eleven years ago)

It was the best song from the 2013 album that became its own single in 2014. That sounds like a qualifier, so let me clarify. It was the best song from the album.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:56 (eleven years ago)

― quinoa: how's it spelt? (dog latin)

One of my highest scoring songs this year but I didn't want to P&J it.

indie bands its always kind of weird to see their songs in singles polls cause they still seem just like a song off an album

lag∞n, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 14:57 (eleven years ago)

this is not a singles poll!!

Haim are not an indie band!!

emil.y, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:00 (eleven years ago)

sure they are

lag∞n, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:00 (eleven years ago)

they represent the ethos of contemporary indie like maybe better than anyone

lag∞n, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:01 (eleven years ago)

xxpost he was talking about Mark Ronson & Bruno Mars

quinoa: how's it spelt? (dog latin), Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:01 (eleven years ago)

save us, gr8dy!

telling like hot takes (imago), Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:02 (eleven years ago)

They play pop/rock music and are not on an independent label, how are they an indie band?

emil.y, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:02 (eleven years ago)

It had to happen, things just took a turn for the worse.

strychnine, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:02 (eleven years ago)

haim are a soft-rock band btw yeah

telling like hot takes (imago), Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:02 (eleven years ago)

theyre a super conservative nostalgia act, indie 2015

lag∞n, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:03 (eleven years ago)

they have independent spirits.

american tail/american pie (how's life), Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:03 (eleven years ago)

another band made of girls iirc

prolego, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:04 (eleven years ago)

6 tracks from Days Are Gone have placed over three years. That has to be a record on both counts, right? o___O

The Reverend, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:04 (eleven years ago)

like what wld be real 2015 soft rock music, prob some country artist

lag∞n, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:05 (eleven years ago)

for sure, country took over soft rock's niche a long time ago

mh, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:05 (eleven years ago)

Passenger?

MarkoP, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:06 (eleven years ago)

yeah this feels like a lame pick for 2014 even though i enjoy the song

ciderpress, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:06 (eleven years ago)

emil.y is right to cavil tho as 'indie' gets a terrible rap around here & yet it often produces brilliant music that rarely threatens the year-end 77 - when it does, it's often pretty generic pop-rock disguised as indie

^^^this is my single and only meta complaint itt, i'm not going to generalise ilx's listenership like every other year. but i will stand for indie

if soft rock is now indie and country is now soft rock and pop is now country, is indie now pop?

telling like hot takes (imago), Tuesday, 20 January 2015 15:06 (eleven years ago)

voting for the fifth single off a very well-represented 2013 album that had no greater impact on the world than its predecessors seems pretty boring to me, i assume all its voters heard and loved it as much as they were going to back in 2013
