Me neither. I love Madlib (and love love love YNQ) but Quas never did much for me.

Rob Instigator · 08.21.2009, 09:54 AM

Bombs Over Baghdad is better than Hey ya

noisereductions · 08.21.2009, 09:54 AM

Agreed. But it was also pre-2000.

Rob Instigator · 08.21.2009, 09:56 AM

I agree to give leaves a chance if you agree to give quas a chance. It really helps if you forget that his voice is just madlibs sped up, think of lord quas as a badass, weed smokin cartoon character.

I think the beats are good. But the persona is a bit too silly for me. The instrumental version of UNSEEN was way better than the LP.

But like I said, YNQ is by far my favorite Lib output.

"crazy" by gnarls barkley is the ELEVENTH BEST SONG OF THE DECADE.

Nothing. But I wouldn't include that song if I made a list of 500 songs from the decade. And I would include "Umbrella." haha.

pinkstation · 08.21.2009, 10:14 AM

i would include the LCD soundsystem songs though.

just definetly not that high.

noisereductions · 08.21.2009, 10:15 AM

again, I find the ranking arbitrary. So whatever. But yeah LCD's "Losing My Edge" was a brilliant single. That's for sure.

pinkstation · 08.21.2009, 10:18 AM

definetly is arbitrary.

i always think to myself "WHO THE HELL KNOWS THE BEST SONG?"

a. it' an opinion
b. there are so many millions of songs that those who ranked those songs didn' hear. so who the hell knows what kind of intersting sounds there are out there?

frades · 08.21.2009, 10:21 AM

top songs of the decade for me:

1 : hips don't lie : shakira
2 : roc : nadiya
3 : despre tine : o-zone
4 : new hampshire : sonic youth
5 : piece of me : britney spears
6 : les voisines - renan luce
7 : take me to the clouds above : LMC vs U2

noisereductions · 08.21.2009, 10:25 AM

"Hips Don't Lie" was good. Truth.

PAULYBEE2656 · 08.21.2009, 10:39 AM

umbrella is a great pop song unlike womanizer..possibly the worst song ever committed to plastic....

panda bear in top songs of all time..yeah he is good but i dont hear that shit pumping out of car windows on a daily basis...unlike battles atlas or even dare i say it.... my bloody valentines soon...

yeah age has A LOT to do with musical tastes..its what you grew up with... marychain, mbv and pixies and stuff mean a lot to me as i wass 14-17 years old when i discovered that shit, that was going on with me...now when you are 15-16 what do you have? outcast, jay fucking zee, all of this backhanded twaddly shite and bag of shite...razorlight and muse and fuckin awful copyist bands that everyone digs them to be damn fucking original and way better than anything else that ever existed before....... i know musical shit is progressing and the next generation is gonna listen to shit that pisses off the previous and im experiencing that at the moment myself!!! i mean id like to think im a forward looking 3o something, i mean im into lightning bolt and whatever.......doesnt matter but some of the unforsaken crock of shit that 14-16 year olds listen to these days is relative to the shit like whitesnake and motley crue and fucking space and so forth that my contemporaries listened to in "the day" and if one more mullet headed, snotty little bleached semi emo gelled fringed tosser with a skateboard says to me that "sonic youth..ha ha sonic oldman more like" i will ram that predated skateboard halfway down his xbox and slam dunk the boxer shorts so far up his ipod crevice that the wedgie will be more atomic than the cafe which bared that name..... fuck off and try and respect the dillinger escape plan with your razor sharp fringe and very expensive teeshirt that is ripped and says punk! avril lavigne is not punk...its shite

rise up and dethrow the beasts of youth..i call on all you over 30s to brandish your aged and worn weapons with pride and whack their sorry little young skulls with a fury that has never been seen before....onwatrd and upward we shall reclaim the night and then havoc will reigh until 10:30..and i ahve to watch the news abut that doesnt matter because little emo chrs will be tucked up in bed with mommy while we are doing class a drugs and being nostalgic!!!! now where did i leave my melvins record...oh yeah in the bin cuz they are shite!

the end
