I feel so close to unraveling ... something. Secret of the universe, space-time continuum, hot funk, cook punk ...

So, um, what the hell is happening here?

In summer 2011, Marx collaborated with comedy internet duo, Rhett and Link, producing a celebrity endorsement for a colon cleansing spa in Sacramento, CA. The ad spot and its "making of" was featured on an episode of Rhett and Link's series on IFC.[19]

wtf

man never try to one-up marx

oh man it was bothering me all day but I figured out that Goodnight Saigon sounds a whole lot like the slow part of The Pogues' Fairytale of New York.

good work today guys (smdh/lol/wtf)

to me joel & elton have pianos & and nice-old-lady fans in common. aaand that's it.

taupin's lyrics are halfway nonsensical but john sings them like they mean something. joel writes one act plays & sings them like he's acting the one man show.

maybe it's the delivery that gives them something a bit more in common idk

i wish i had seen Joel in SF last weekend :(

The Stranger is a perfect album - could never find another BJ album I enjoyed from start to finish, Piano Man is dreadful imo.

Feel like Elton made a career out of bold, nonsensical statements and BJ is more abt depicting/creaeting milieus

Even I wouldn't say The Stranger is a perfect album. It does all right until it hits "Get It Right The First Time"/"Everybody Has A Dream".

Agreed about Joel and John playing pianos, and that's about it. I made everyone's hats flip the last time I said it, but I'll say it again: Joel's closer to Donald Fagan than he is to Reginald.

He’s super hit or miss. I think if you like one of his songs it’s just like how, if you met 30 stray dogs, probably one of them would just be nice and come up and lick you, but that’s just due to sheer numbers.

it just seemed like marmalade seeping through the radio, just filling the entire car up until we all just drowned.

It was like wrestling someone with no bones. It would just come and lay on you and there was just like really no way to throw it off you. He was just on top of you.

xp well, I'd rate The Stranger as pretty perfect in the sense that it's perfectly coherent and enjoyable from start to finish.

Agree to disagree. Just can't get past when he does his "Ray" voice, and listen, I'm no hater.

Check out Thomas Dolby's "Airwaves"

xp hmm never thought of this before but I'll put it on in the office immediately and see if it will annoy me this time

Ha, no. Keep it inside your heart. Don't let me prove you wrong.

Well I guess I really just wanted an excuse to listen to the entire album once again, colleagues seem to be digging it too xD

Come to think of it, my view on The Stranger probably very influenced by an excerpt from Phil Ramone's Making Records book where he iirc described it as something of a gem and the record where Bj really found himself/his style. Also, remember being quite amazed that same guy was behind the production of Blood on the Tracks.

Always dug the back cover with Phil and the boys.

the *sound* of that album is incredible

esp. Movin Out...great production

I like how almost all his early (pre-late-'80s) hits sound. Excellent dry sound.

I can't believe I've heard all but two of those songs.

dry like your mother's...favorite white wine

Oh yeah, "Bottle of Red" and all that..

also a terrible baseball futurist

Rose he knows he's such a credit to the game

even tried to police the heavyweight champ's 'lingus

Ali don't you go downtown

(xp) well, rose does know that, even today! even if the game disagrees!

as for billy's (nearly) perfect album, it's glass houses.

"Sleeping With the Television On" coulda been an Elvis Costello song, I guess.

I could imagine "We Didn't Start the Fire" if Elvis Costello was as bad as some people think he is.

balls on fire in this thread

i've said it before and i'll say it again, nylon curtain is a wonderful set of songs

we didn't start balls' fire.

i don't really buy that joel hates his own songs either, i think he has a gruff workman's pride in them. and that footage of him losing his shit onstage is pretty inspiring - it was during his russian shows, and he was freaking out and trying to stop the cops there beat up his fans in the crowd.

it was because they kept turning the house lights on whenever the audience started bopping

there's something incredibly silly about a man in a baggy shoulder-padded sports coat throwing a tantrum

Last year, Joel even told Howard Stern about his dream of forming a supergroup with Henley and Sting.

The Insufferable Wilburys
