Isn't this how those "what's on yr IPod" threads work? We say "man who assaulted a police officer with his penis..." And then you think "hmmm... Penis, hmmmmmm..... Organ?" And plug that shit into iTunes and it spits out Yo La Tengo "Sudden Organ" and you post it to ILM thread and big lolzzzz ensue?

So where's your penis list then.

Ned Raggett, Saturday, 20 March 2010 05:24 (fifteen years ago)

all i get back is penis envy by crass. kinda surprised at that, given the 1000+ prince songs i have on my hard drive. "dick" pretty much brings up jim dickinson, but it does bring up that palace track and something called "holelottadick" from the residents' baby sex album, among others. "pussy," however, brings up a whole bunch of tracks. apparently, i like bands with "pussy" in their name. and there's the prince... people who claim he's a homosexual have obviously never heard the man.

zingzing, Saturday, 20 March 2010 16:35 (fifteen years ago)

So where's your penis list then.

Merzbow, "One Man Penis"
Nurse with Wound, "The Penis Fruit Loop"
Nurse with Wound, "Penis Fruit Loop (Bald and Beardless Version)"

I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Saturday, 20 March 2010 16:37 (fifteen years ago)

"Detachable Penis," King Missile
"Keep on Walkin'," CeCe Peniston
