Is "Stuck" by Stacie Orrico:

a) The first sign of the next 'bopper generation, far too innocent and LizzieMcGuireesque to be able to relate to Neptunes beats, Avril or Xtina?

or...

b) Five years behind its time and the last huzzah of semi-wholesome pop music, bought mainly out of nostalgia reasons?

Also how does that Rolling Stones t-shirt fit into all of this.

Having heard the Stacie Orrico album I'm afraid it's b)... she's actually an xtian artist who admits she doesn't listen to much xtian music coz it shuns hip hop and R&B, which are the kind of thing she relates to. The album sounds like a time capsule from '00/'01, when teen-pop was flirting with R&B and hip hop, blissfully unaware that it would soon swallow it whole. Stunning piece of pop art it ain't, but I've been listening to it a lot coz I'm feeling a bit nostalgic for that era.

i like Sing-Sing a lot, but they're quite removed from Lush.. a lot more pop-electronic leaning..

Life comes full circle quite a few times. Thats when you realize that you are really not going anywhere.

Kelly's Clarkson's "Low" is still my fave single of the year.

that pfork review of 'where's the love' is horrible, but i still don't want to revive one of the 849 pfork hate threads.

today's country teasers review is even worse, it ends with:

I realize this was a particularly ostentatious review, written by some haughty upstart who thinks he knows about music, but I honestly think I could make a better album than this, even though I currently suffer from poor eyesight, bronchitis, and a sizeable gash that precludes the use of my right hand.

fourteen years pass...

a cool thing about the allegory of the cave is that a cave is very womblike, a gate between darkness and light.

"Playing Hot Revolver by Lil Wayne at night is pretty much the most you thing ever" most depressing thing i've ever been told by a fucking app

It told me that playing "High" by Miley Cyrus in the evening is the most me thing ever, and I found the total inaccuracy of that reassuring: evidence that the machines are still a few years away from actually knowing us.
