Dante Posted November 29, 2008 Posted November 29, 2008 Lisa Miskovsky - Still Alive You would think she would be running and jumping on the buildings.
Agata Posted November 29, 2008 Posted November 29, 2008 Over the past few weeks, all I've been listening to is Melt-Banana. They're a Japanese punk band, with a bit of noise and experimental electronica mixed in, truly awesome. Undoubtably one of my favourite bands right now, Japanoise FTW!
Ashley Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 I feel Kanye West's "Welcome to Heartbreak" my become my anthem in a few years; My friend showed me pictures of his kids, And all I could show him were pictures of my cribs. He said his daughter got a brand-new report card, And all I got was a brand-new sportscar. Kinda is now...although I lack cribs and sportscars. Anyway this just in; Kanye and Justice's new albums are awesome. I like the way Justice's uses samples from Klaxons (or maybe they've used them from somewhere and I am musically ignorant but whatever). Up next; Ben Folds' new album.
Paj! Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 I love Kanye's new album (obviously). I NEED this new Justice one I hear of! In other news; I love how songs you normally ignored become "better" when played at a club/dance. Like "Live Your Life" by T.I and Rihanna. I need it now.
dan-likes-trees Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 The demo version of Tegan and Sara's Nineteen. It's lovely. I love how the lyrics make more sense than the album release. "When you're 19, call me." Haha, after listening to that (brilliant btw) I did a google for the con demos. 2nd result: Tegan and Sara – Listen free at Last.fm Where can I buy/download the Con Demos? I love them all. View Profile | Leave chairdriver a shout Great minds think alike. If you still need help finding them the pm me They are rather good On a T&S related note, I have The Con and So Jealous. Are the other ones worth getting?

I have If It Was You, and can cofirm it's AMAZING! YOU HAVE TO GET IT! Haven't got the first 2, they themselves aren't too fonmd of them. I have the famous tracks off them, which don't hold a candle to their other albums. Seriously. If It Was You. It's less cutesy, much more..organic. It's awesome.
Fierce_LiNk Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 I've got I'm Outta Time (by Oasis) in my head, and it just won't come out. Such a beautiful song. It's hard to compare it to any of their previous ones.
somme Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Another alternate version here from PJ Harvey. This is probably one of the best alternates I've heard, in fact I prefer it to the original. Grow Grow Grow

Like, has too many stories to tell.
Dan_Dare Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Anyone not in possession of Justice's latest output, stop what you're doing and get your hands on it immediately. It's fucking amazing.
somme Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 A letter I wrote and sent to The Kills myspace: Hey, I am contacting you requesting clarification on one of your lyrics. I've heard the line in question, from "tape song" is actually; "you got to go straight ahead" however, we, my associates in friendship, have come to the conclusion there ARE only two possible options as to the what the lyric actually is. "you've got a ghost in your head" or "you've got a ghost in your HAIR" I would like confirmation as I recently received a hair cut and by no means wished to harm any non-corporeal barnet dwellers that may have taken up residence in the foliage of my scalp. Please note that whatever response you enlighten us with will in fact be irrelevant as we feel "ghost in your HAIR" is the only sensible answer. On another matter I unfortunately missed the opportunity to breathe in the sweat of your many adoring minions whilst you endeavoured to bring us closer to the peak of musical ecstacy at the Astoria last week as I am an unemployed musician and couldn't afford the entrance fee. I tried to use sex as a weapon and shoot down the security guards with a powererful stream of hot love liquid but alas I'm out of practise in that field and it was a mere dribble, luke-warm at best. So I hope you will be playing again soon, and of course keep me in my mind should you ever need a supporting artist. Thanks in advance, Peter x P.S. My mate works at Zavvi in Piccadilly Circus and sold two of your albums. They only had three to begin with. I suggest you take a trip there and give her a present. x
Oxigen_Waste Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Anyone not in possession of Justice's latest output, stop what you're doing and get your hands on it immediately. It's fucking amazing. A Cross The Universe?
Paj! Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 A letter I wrote and sent to The Kills myspace: Love it. Pointless, yet a joke.
Ashley Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 A Cross The Universe? I'd presume so as yesterday I was speaking to wee Daniel and mentioned it and he said he needed to check it out.
somme Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Love it. Pointless, yet a joke. haha and also true. we did actually think she was singing abouts ghosts in peoples hair. lol
chairdriver Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 haha and also true. we did actually think she was singing abouts ghosts in peoples hair.lol It's undeniably "You've got to go straight ahead" though. Actually ridiculously clear what the lyric is, to such an extent that I never questioned it. And how do you explain the bit where she's like "You got to- You got to- YOU GO TO! YOU GOTTA GO STRAIGHT AHEAD!"
Paj! Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 It's undeniably "You've got to go straight ahead" though. Actually ridiculously clear what the lyric is, to such an extent that I never questioned it. "The keeeeeys...LUhVe!" My favourite, even more than "I want to kill this white dress". ---- Is it wrong that I love "Live your Life" by T.I and Rihanna? Cause I do.

chairdriver Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 "The keeeeeys...LUhVe!" My favourite, even more than "I want to kill this white dress". I love mishearing jokes. Tori Amos is the best for misheard lyrics. Like the straitjacket bit in Beauty Queen. And I always think she's going to say "an aphro-disiac" when she says "an afro, a pharaoh"

And I always think she's going to say "an aphro-disiac" when she says "an afro, a pharaoh" I love the actual lyrics to Beauty Queen, considering what I thought they were originally. "Heeeeeeeeeey. Heeeeeeeeeey. She-e-e-e-e's a Beauty Queen Heeeeeeeeeeeey my sweet. Baby in the straightjacket Down now to the laundry serum. "
chairdriver Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Overprotected by Britney Spears would be amazing if it weren't shit. If that makes sense. Like, it has the potential to be a really good song.
Dan_Dare Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 A Cross The Universe? oui. it's incredible. they've never sounded better.
Paj! Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Production can be everything. ---- I lol'd so much at this somg/video. So well put together! Cooking By The Book (Lil' Bigger Mix) I actually love so much.
Slaggis Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Overprotected by Britney Spears would be amazing if it weren't shit. If that makes sense. Like, it has the potential to be a really good song. I used to love that. Then I gave In The Zone a good listen, and realised how...pointless it was. With the subject of the song, they could of made it rather immesne, but it's like they just didn't want to bother. No wonder it got nowhere in the American charts. However cheesy/cliche it may be, I actually love "You Drive Me (Crazy)" beyond belief. I know I shouldn't, but I can't help it.
Gizmo Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Finch were amazing last night. Was too tired at first to get upfront and in the crowd but as I got more into the music I moved in and by the encore I was getting punched in the face in a pit. Ears were still ringing this morning. Sore throat. All the signs of a good gig. Good times.
