Shit Moments In Great Songs

loads of dance tracks. i always want to edit bits out then put it back together.

i hate those silly squeaky voices, or the alien type, for starters.
 
Will someone hurry the fuck up and start the 'Great Moments In Shit Songs' spin off thread please.
 
the cow bell in mark ronbsons ooh wee tune.

I would love that song if it wasn't for that.

Its toss.

Theres also a bob marley tune that reuined by a tiny little cymbol/cow bell type thing but i cant rmemeber which one.

nah way man, that's ace. it's like a shangri-las song :cool:

and he's not farris rotter anymore, he's farris badwan :D

The sound of it is piss, it sounds outta place and crappy. "It's like a shangri las song", haha you read that in the NME review, plagiarism boy.

I think they lose credit for changing their spots so quickly, from cartoon vampires and dropping the ridiculous names (that Spyder Webb is a knobhead). I mean to have all that halloween shit in the first place was just bollocks. I bet they regret it know, hence the overhaul. Style over substance.

However, the overall sound of the album is impressive. Shame the producer didn't manipulate Badwan's voice more, it sounds dreadful. Except in one of the songs near the end when it goes all low. It lacks the tunes of the Mary Chain or MBV to come anywhere close on the legacy stakes.

And who produced it?? I remember ages ago reading that Chris Cunningham was doing it?? Or was it Geoff Barrow??
 
geoff barrow. and i don't read the NME. you don't need to read it in some review to recognise the influence. i can use my own fabulous brain to do that, monkey boy :cool:
 
Why did Chris Cunningham drop out then?? Probably because he'd never done an album before.

And why did Geoff Barrow make the 3rd Coral album sound like he did nothing to it. That was a missed opportunity, he shoulda made that band sound even more out there. Instead it sounded, just shit and boring. Agree??
 
Damon Albarn's tuneless squawk of the word 'low' in the chorus to 'this is a low' :(

e2a: fair play to him though, it's a tough note and I can't get it either, it's right where my voice wants to break into falsetto...

That utterly shit bit of dialogue at the end of Hotwax by Beck.

Also the middle 8 for Rihanna's Umbrella. Just wank.
 
The bit where Brian Ferry sings 'love is the druuuugggg'. Totally ruins an otherwise good tune.
 
The robotic voice that goes 'Bonkers' in that Dizzee Rascal/Calvin Harris track is also very lame.

Not that the rest of the song is that great anyway.
 
The build towards the of end 'Under The Bridge' which is all falsetto and annoying. Final few bars of outro save it a bit.
 
Beck's 'Electric Music and the Summer People', which is ace and probably the best thing he's done, has a minute of pointless annoying noise at the end.
 
Oh, and 'Jed's Other Poem' by Grandaddy, which has the most gorgeous melody and moving lyrics, but has with a mawkish, childish, half-sung intro that I always try and skip.
 
Sonic Youth, Mildred Pierce. The first two thirds are absolutely lovely, uplifting gorgeousness, and then suddenly it collapses into the most hideous screaming and distortion. Now, I know that's what Sonic Youth are all about, but it doesn't work at all with that one.

that's the point u dumb ass,

you obviously didn't geddit, it's a great song, all the better for the explosion.
 
The robotic voice that goes 'Bonkers' in that Dizzee Rascal/Calvin Harris track is also very lame.

Not that the rest of the song is that great anyway.

aah i like that bit of the song, makes it more bouncy

on the other hand i dont like that stupid breakdown bit where hes like "yeeeah man, back up back up on the flooor now"

summit stupid random jabber like that anyway
