tipsy mothra OTM in the voting thread re "the pummeling snare drum lead-in to the chorus" on Ruby Tuesday. impossible not to pull out the air sticks for that one.

love both of these songs so much (though i prefer evil twin "play with fire" to "ruby tuesday")
sort of disappointing that they dropped their fey and experimental side so completely after, well, you know

frankly I'm glad it was just a side, I don't think I would like them half as much their career was 50 years poncing around in velvet and playing recorders

side = phase
karaoke peeps, have you tried either of these? both seem very fun in very different ways.

I'm dying to try out Beast of Burden
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 22:17 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i know ppl who hate both so so much and they're both 'overplayed' i guess (seriously ppl, it's 2012, get spotify, put mp3s on yr ipod, change the station, no excuse to whine about hearing anything too much - everything is very avoidable now), but i'm still fine w/ both. when i was a very young kid (ie when this song was still somewhat contemporary) i thought 'beast of burden' was possibly some kind of sex slang i didn't understand, like that m&m stuff they talk about in 9 to 5.

xxxp lol, yeah i guess not, but little something strange now and again in between all the romantical swaggeringness might have been nice

xxpost balls, yeah I always thought it was a weird sex euphemism too, I was kind of embarrassed that I liked the song for a long time because I thought it meant I was a pervert
turns out I am and that liking the song has nothing to do with that, lol

Today's second clerical error: Ruby Tuesday's point total is correct but I failed to note it received a #1 vote.
― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 22:26 (twelve years ago) link
Wes Anderson is among my most loathed directors, and I had no idea he used Ruby Tuesday (my #5). The guy should be banned from using the stones

i was one of the 'let it bleed' number 1s. i don't love it as much as rogermexico's post suggests, it was more that it had to be number 1, simply by what it does. just listen to the first 25 seconds: the slide guitar sketch to start, the acoustic guitar which seems to change rhythm ever so slightly, charlie's drums starting bang bang, then the piano coming in on the second beat.
they swung as well as they rocked.

love the lazy swing of "let it bleed", the way the drums come in, all that. even like the song, but it's far from a favorite. enjoy singing & drinking along with brokedick country stones, but i think they do other things so much better.

I love Beast of Burden, and I was trying to NOT leave things off if I really can't listen to them anymore, but this one fell through the cracks and I left it off. I don't think I've ever been as unhappy with what I submitted, but this is just impossible to do in 20 songs (and I stopped at Exile!)
― Iago Galdston, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 22:39 (twelve years ago) link
Beast of Burden is off the cuff and v relaxed but it feels kind of bland to me tbh
― Year of the RMDE (loves laboured breathing), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 22:41 (twelve years ago) link
think i said this on the results thread but it's entirely possible to put together two separate 20-track ballots that are wholly defensible with zero challops and do not share a track in common.
without prejudicing results i can also state I received many ballots that would have made just as much sense in either order.

"Put me out of misery" can't be bland, but it is p chill.

i put beast of burden up pretty high. that song sounds great when you're just on the verge of being way drunk.

yeah beast is a slow-dancing by yrself in an empty bar kinda song

the slow dancing by yrself in an empty bar in a BAD way song would be Bad Company's Feel Like Makin' Love

there's at least 4 or 5 songs on my ballot that there was no way i wasn't voting for (only one has shown up - don't need a virgin priest), but i easily could've picked a completely different roster for the rest and still been fine w/ my ballot.

not to get too TMZ itt but it kinda boggles my mind that Jagger had 4 wives in something like 30 years 1970-1999). And SEVEN children.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 23:34 (twelve years ago) link
GIS for Bianca Jagger is O_O
imo "loving cup" is the song that "sexual healing" wants to be and i know what i am saying and i will stand by that.
