I'll cop to never having heard that Belle & Sebastian song
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Wednesday, 15 September 2010 05:13 (thirteen years ago) link
for a period in the late 90s following a severe head injury the sound of my refrigerator humming at night sounded exactly like the mazzy star song listed here
i first heard "smells like teen spirit" vacationing in belgium in 2002. it was playing over a german-language commercial for the hyundai accent.
i have never heard the björk, depche mode or outkast singles &, quite frankly, hope i never will.
during my senior year of high school in 2001 my roommate alexander lost his virginity to beck's loser. consequently he would play it on repeat while studying for ap chem finals. he was also a big aphex twin fan but claimed that, with the important exception of the 1st 30 minutes of "selected ambient works vol. II", nothing aphex twin ever recorded could be played during sex.
i 1st heard nothing but a g thang during a fifth grade presentation on the effects of air pollution. it played over a montage of fish killed by acid rain.
as far as i cant tell the belle & sebastian and aaliyah singles are situationist pranks executed by the editors of pitchfork. no such songs have ever existed, nor should they.
the radiohead song was used in the short lived cbs situation comedy "the naked lens" starring rhea pherlman and téa leoni. i 1st heard it in a commercial for a high-end swiss watch brand.
the pulp song was played regularly in british taxi cabs when i was living in london while my stepfather oversaw a bank merger there. this was ~1997/8. i cannot pinpoint the moment i heard it any more exactly.
i bought and still own "in an aeroplane over the sea" on compact disc. however i have never listened to it & the disc remains in its original shrinkwrap. i 1st heard holland 1945 @ an indie dance night at stanford.
as for the rest i probably first heard them during a brief and rather foolish infatuation with shortwave radio when i was 12.

tbh w/ d-mode i was always more a personal jesus fan as far as that big jams go
i imagine that everyone from the 80s looks like ned raggett

sorry for that guys.
anyway, in seriousness i had to double check that i'd heard the aaliyah song. everything else i could recall because it was either a) right up my alley, or b) a staple from my youth.

bcuz its a beloved outkast single
― you cant see me markers (deej), Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:13 (thirteen years ago) link
smh
according to wikipedia it wasn't a single?
(that's one i def don't remember from the time, and didn't hear until i finally copped aquemini about 5 years ago, and it's good but not really a stand-out even on its album imo)

how is a 7 minute funk track with barely any rapping representative of Kast's career (btw, I 1000000% agree with you on Juicy and Check The Rime)

are we going to pick a different song from the pfork list each week to debate whether its really truly great/relevant/canonical/familiar? why is this coming up NOW?
― da croupier, Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:48 (thirteen years ago) link
wouldn't harassing scott pl to release the files get to the bottom of the mystery faster than finding another thing that makes you go hmmmm?
― da croupier, Wednesday, 15 September 2010 12:50 (thirteen years ago) link
is 'things that make you go hmmm' really truly great/relevant/canonical/familiar?
