SINCE when has atonal wittering been a musical form?

[Paulie Tandoori]

It's one of the best pop singles ever made. Simple as. No wonder you're starting threads asking about learning to like music.....

 

[g force]

oh i know, i wasn't dissing it at all, I'm a big Squeeze fan. I was just trying to put Quoad's absurd comments on some kind of spectrum..


Cohen >>>> Squeeze >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Oasis

something like that

To even place Squeeze in the same thread as Oasis is absurd

 

[Dubversion]

To even place Squeeze in the same thread as Oasis is absurd

of course it's not. That's the whole idea of a spectrum.

 

[Crispy]

[Crispy]

maybe they sexed it up with a Squeeze soundtrack, and you've just buried it REALLY REALLY deep

 

[Chairman Meow]

Sexing it up to Squeeze!

[Chairman Meow]

Bang Bang.

Louis MacNeice

Wasn't that BA Robertson?

I seem to think I always say this to my bloke and he always tells me I'm wrong.

 

[Dubversion]

I knew it was one of those curly-haired fuckers.

For some reason I've now got that Steve Miller Abracadbra in my head

 

[Dubversion]

For some reason I've now got that Steve Miller Abracadbra in my head

not only horrible, but contains the word 'panties' which makes me shudder

 

[milesy]

the word "panties" makes me think of dirty old men in old anoraks licking their lips and rubbing their hands.

liek MysteryGuest

 

[milesy]

anyway, i like the song that this thread is about. not enough to choose to listen to it, but i wouldn't get upset if it came on the radio.

 

[cesare]

not only horrible, but contains the word 'panties' which makes me shudder

'black panties with an angel's face'

It's a proper earworm

Squeeze >> BA Robertson >> Steve Miller Band. Oh dear oh dear

 

[Spion]

at Mrs Q and Crispy for never having heard that tune. Were you two guys locked in the same cellar for the last 30 years?

 

[Pieface]

Is that the same Steve Miller who did The Joker?

 

[Dubversion]

Is that the same Steve Miller who did The Joker?

yeh... almost as bad

 

[cesare]

Is that the same Steve Miller who did The Joker?

I never progressed beyond the panties song

 

[Dubversion]

at Mrs Q and Crispy for never having heard that tune. Were you two guys locked in the same cellar for the last 30 years?

i think partly it's because neither of them have been anywhere for as long as 30 years, though i could be wrong about Quoad

 

[Pieface]

That's a weird pair of songs to come out of the same man.

What the hell is a midnight choker anyway? I'm sure the chorus confused me.
