there's a similar dude (I don't think it's a band) called Self — I'll post his "What a Fool Believes" cover if I can find it

honestly I don't hate this — dude sounds breathy but I think that's just because his voice isn't that strong and it's a really fuckin' hard song to sing!

sorta like this, might have to start using it:
Did Michael McDonald invent the word "nostalgite" (combination of naivete and nostalgia) in this song?I like it but I think it's a bit too close the original especially in the vocals.roesmoker 2 months ago@roesmoker ha ha, I am an idiot, according to random lyrics on the internet that is actually "nostalgic tale" - I always thought it was nostalgite.

As an advertising professional, I ask you...do hipsters care about deck protection? Do Pamplamoose fans understand the damage water can do to an unprotected deck?

i think the ads are totally stupid btw, mostly because as mentioned they were airing this shit during the height of football season when normally the ads are all about how you're a homosexual with euro tendencies and mommy issues if you don't drink bud lite, or howie long calling you a pussy for not having the right kind of truck./― omar little, Tuesday, January 4, 2011 11:06 PM (Yesterday) Bookmark

like fucking poignant commercials for insurance companies, the whole thing isn't bad cuz it cheapens indie rock, it's bad cuz it ad agencies are so hip and cool and good production values now, it almost cheapens the *idea* of emotions and feeling....
Not sure much has changed since Don Draper days.

I feel like I have read somewhere a philosopher or sociologist saying the same basic thing but way pre-indie-music -- in fact I think he said that irony and cynicism were reactions to this cheapening by advertising, although now irony and cynicism are a huge part of advertising.

kind of surprising to think we're over half a decade removed from iron & wine being used in m&m commercials, also this is at least four years old:

the only thing pomplamoose can do now is some kind of double reverse fakeout sort of thing and put this thread in their electronic press kit; kind of like how Robert Fripp would put all those years of accumulated bad reviews in the liner notes of Crimson anthologies.
