This is the thread where we ask people to dig up things on ILX we can't find

Oh yeah, thanks!

thread where posters write music lists without starting a whole new thread about that specific list.

SONGS WHERE/SONGS THAT/SONGS WITH/SONGS IN WHICH

Thanks!

Is there a half-decent thread about abolishing the monarchy?

Trying to think of an ILM thread about albums whose art/title gave you a totally misleading impression about what genre, era, etc. they would be from. i can't think of a specific such discussion, but seems like the kind of thing that would already have six threads (three from 2001-2004 and the others created at roughly five-year intervals).

there’s (at least) three from 2003:

Misleading Album Covers
Misleading Album Art
Pumping Iron: Deliberately Misleading Album Covers

Thanks!

Is there a thread listing singers who sound very similar?

i just did a search for "eddie vedder voice", assuming it would come up, but surprisingly it hasn't!

but no...i'm not sure i recall a general thread for that either...though, i'm far from encyclopedic on ILM

I'm pretty sure there is no such thread and it's a good topic so I would support anyone who felt like starting one.

male and female singers who sound unnervingly alike ?

good call, I had missed that

i want the name of the one person responsible for the white dude in the old man hat voice

I have concluded over the years that Tom Verlaine, Gordon Gano, Frank Black, Jandek, and Rufus Wainright all have the same, or very similar, voices

i don't think it's too much to ask for a list of singers who go "yarrrrhhh" like eddie vedder

mods please append "yarling" to thread title for easier access

RFD: The Cultural History of the Modern Rock/Post-Grunge Vocal Affectation

YAARRH!

feel like i'm going nuts, i can't find the poll results of the 2000s tracks poll that we did last year, i think? help!

or maybe it was 2019 that we did it.

This one?

Are We Having Fun Yet? ILM's Top 100 Tracks Of The 00's

What was the thread where I most recently got people really mad by being antinatalist

Was it on I love parenting?

Taking sides: Children vs. (non-human) animals

Not that one, it was “to form babby or not to form babby”

Not ilx specific but there was a video doing the rounds maybe 2-3 years ago of an italian American dj talking into the camera with old school freestyle playing in the background & smoking a cigar & talking up him and his buddy, little help?

Nice one Thankyou!

I have tried but I can't find a thread for the series THE AFFAIR starring Maura Tierney and Dominic West. I just finished it after forgetting about it for two years and now I need to discuss but I can't find where! halp

was there a thread for THE HOUR that it got tagged onto? ... or one of The Wire threads?

i have no idea! any links appreciated, i am very curious what other people thought about this show and that RARELY happens so i am indulging my curiosity

I didn't see this series, but I did a search in the archives for "Tierney" and only found one or two posts that seemed to be about this show, no entire thread (unless it didn't mention her name).

yeah that is what i found too -- lots of love for Maura T but no thread for this series! where she features prominently!!

I did the same, seems like there were some posts on the '10 favourite TV shows' thread.

Poll:

Gene
Kieran
Maura

... nothing against Maura but she is very much the also ran here. I forgot:

Lawrence

Where is that thread about spooky versions of pop songs in movie trailers?

moody minimal covers/versions of popular songs created solely to soundtrack movie trailers: an archive

Thanks!

what's the recent ILM thread about songs where the narrator feels, like, "old before their time" considering the songwriter's actual comparative youth?

You Can't Be 20: Old-Person Songs by Young People

thank you!

What is that thread where we note hilarity in the juxtaposition of a) the content of a post and b) the username/screenname of the poster?

username / post

Thanks!

Is there a thread where we can add the names of old celebrities you haven't heard about for decades and then you see them on Twitter, click their profile and find out they are now antivaxers / TERFs / Covid conspiracy theoriests / Trumpers / full-blown-QAnons?

this thread is kind of that but only for musicians really
Covidiots in music

i see youre the 2nd posted in there so disregard lol

couple more musician threads that might fit the bill, found when i searched for moe tucker 8(

Musicians whose political sympathies are to the right

Albums you own or used to own from artists that turned out to be awful people.

do we have a definitive ILM thread for songs that briefly quote or interpolate other songs?
