a worthwhile tangent from the joanna newsom thread.

can we please have an example of an "oh-oh-oh-ohhhh" or "yeahhhh" in a song that could have been replaced by a cutting lyrical sentiment, and what that cutting lyrical sentiment should have been?

the statement was quickly thought-through and figurative, referring to masculine vocal postures that can't fully articulate their own testosterone levels, but HAVE AT IT, ILX

actually yeah that's a way better thread idea :)

Ian Astbury FTW (although his eagerness to do just this is part of his charm).

And do you feel scared?
Oh I do
But I won't stop and falter

Things can only get better

If I was more clever I'd tackle Paul McCartney's "My Love," but surely someone is up to the task.
