An aside, "Walking with a Ghost" was the first thing T and S did at the accoustic see.
And how would you, Freely or anyone else who has heard it, compare The Music's new album to their Self-entitled one. Or just that song if it's all that's all out.
I've got many character flaws, humility isn't one.
the only things I'll disagree with on the "bottom" list are the Le Tigre songs. I think they're pretty cool. Considering all the other stuff Feely seems to like I can't figure out the dislike for Le Tigre. BTW, How about the new PJ Harvey album? Haven't seen any love for it here.
Le Tigre is down there because they're god-awful, especially "New Kicks". Wow, way to protest starting a war that already happened a year ago. Wow, chanting about peace. This is really worth my time and worthy of being played on the radio. And PJ Harvey, I'm always like, "Hey! PJ Harvey! I want to like you! But you're very mediocre. Stop it." So...there.
Wow.... I fully and WHOLE-HEARTEDLY agree with you with your placement of Projet Orange's new single in the bottom forty. Talk about a cop-out of a single. I mean, I've heard of selling out but.. Jesus H. Christ, this is too much.
Feely, thank you so much for putting Camper Van Beethoven in your top 40. Without reading that, I might not have known about their new album. As a die-hard Camper fan, I've been waiting for something like this for about 15 years. This is great, great news; I've already shared it with about a dozen high school and college friends who were all sad Camper fans, too.
You've made a lot of people very very happy, and I happily extend their thanks along with my own.
Now if you could just get Roger Waters back into Pink Floyd and maybe another Pink Martini album out, you'd be like unto a God. I don't expect anything, but if you can make that happen, I promise a fruit basket is on the way.
