well, that's lame. Especially if you were expecting the Floyd-meisters.

turn your tv to another channel and watch green day or something less challenging.

!@#$%! 12.19.2007 03:04 AM

i like some of his songs

then he did some weird shit w/ the kronos quartet, that was mildly funny (the juliet letters or something)

what's he doing on your tv-- humping it?

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 12.19.2007 03:05 AM

He's watching the detectives.

I've been meaning to make a list of members I wish to block, those who never have anything interesting or intelligent to say. This little thread has given me a good starting point.

Torn Curtain, Terminal, and a few others... you guys can stay. The rest, adios!

Tokolosh 12.19.2007 08:37 AM

You should be one to talk.
Stop wasting MY time with your arrogant bla bla bla threats.












Carry on.

I'm more than happy to be on that list. In case you haven't noticed, nobody gives a flying fuck.

It'd probably be less terrible than any of Elvis Costello's output.

floatingslowly 12.19.2007 09:48 AM

I was accused of looking like Elvis Costello this week, however, for some unknown reason, I'm not on TV. :(

You've gotta be kidding, up to Imperial bedroom (which makes as many as 7 records) he ruled.

No. I'm not kidding. You can listen to that mediocre bullshit if you'd like but I'd prefer to not have anything to do with him ever.

atari 2600 12.19.2007 10:59 AM

I wouldn't call him "mediocre."

There's been many friends over the years that like him more than I do, but most of the material with The Attractions is particularly very good.

I don't like his wife's (Diana Krall) jazz, but it's not like she's the worst or anything.

what the fuck is elvis costello doing on my television set?
Yeah, I thought his thing was the radio hehhee.


I was tuning in the shine on the light night dial
Doing anything my radio advised
With every one of those late night stations
Playing songs bringing tears to my eyes
I was seriously thinking about hiding the receiver
When the switch broke 'cause it's old
They're saying things that I can hardly believe
They really think we're getting out of control

(CHORUS) Radio is a sound salvation
Radio is cleaning up the nation
They say you better listen to the voice of reason
But they don't give you any choice 'cause they think that it's treason
So you had better do as you are told
You better listen to the radio

I wanna bite the hand that feeds me
I wanna bite that hand so badly
I want to make them wish they'd never seen me

Some of my friends sit around every evening
And they worry about the times ahead
But everybody else is overwhelmed by indifference
And the promise of an early bed
You either shut up or get cut up, they don't wanna hear about it
It's only inches on the reel-to-reel
And the radio is in the hands of such a lot of fools
Tryin' to anaesthetise the way that you feel

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Wonderful radio
Marvelous radio
Wonderful radio
Radio, radio
(FADE)
