TS: LCD Soundsystem / Justin Bieber

Swag Justin Bieber out.

But what does that ~mean~, Rev?

Bieber has like half a song I enjoy, so him.

which half

LCD Soundsystem has a number of memes I have enjoyed blogging about in my lifetime. Justin Bieber too, but he's more hit-or-miss in that department imo

what the hell are we taking sides on? better music? better hair? better 3D feature? better basketball skills? (ok, so biebz can't shoot, but he's a quick little fucker)

fuck justin bieber, marry james murphy, kill billstevejim

"somebody to love" is kinda dope imo

Bieber is talent-free nonsense that should never be played by anyone, ever.

well actually I take that back; it should be played on endless loop in jjjusten's house with him locked inside because that would be fun to watch

i agree with this but i also feel the same way about LCD Soundsystem

LCD has very little middle ground IMO; when it works, it really REALLY works well ("Someone Great", "Dance Yrself Clean") but when it doesn't, you want to run for the hills to escape it ("Daft Punk Is Blah Blah", "New York Blah Blah Blah")

some dude otm w 2 amendments:

1) All My Friends is probably better than every J Bieber song (& every other LCD song is worse)
2) One Time is also a halfway decent J Bieber song...

"All My Friends" is terrible, though.

eh it's probably like the 37th best song of 2007...

I might actually like Somebody to Love more...

alright Dan you're right Someone Great is p good...

still voted Bieber.

wonder if bieber will ever cover 'bingo' by catch?

he should

i pick steve over bill & jim

I don't see jam smurfy fuckin w ofwgkta.

I don't think I have ever heard a Bieber song. And I don't plan on ever clicking *play* on a youtube either.

That's very open minded of you.

Absolutely

oh, but he got a haircut!

i was going to pull up an image of emma watson to compare them, but apparently the internet shares my thoughts.

You really should be comparing James Murphy with Bieber's hair

lol totally forgot this just wasn't a bieber infatuation thread

That's kind of the Clay Aiken look though

Maybe not Aiken

http://tv.popcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/clay-aiken-has-baby-boy.jpg

looks like Paul Reubens

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41krXak6FVL._SL500_AA300_.jpg

well maybe not Pee Wee

http://remote.lohudblogs.com/files/2007/11/pd-reubens3.jpg

maybe like Spector

kinda wonder whether bieber will grow up to look just like donny osmond

I hope he grows up to look like Phil Spector

lol

I hope he grows up to love like Phil Spector

"Baby" ft Ludacris (Grammarticalogylisationalism DFA remix radio edit)

kinda hate myself when i think that i'm prolly as excited to see bieber go thru puberty than i would for any of my kids (if they existed)

That sentence is vaguely creepy + a grammatical mess (enhancing the creepiness factor)

(just thought you should know)

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Today I saw an ad for justin-bieber-law.com on the bus. There was a clip art duck on crutches covered in bandages. "Justin M. Bieber Esquire should be YOUR ATTORNEY."

What gender was the duck?

why isnt it on youtube

wait.. "on the bus"

i cant read

i like more lcd songs than biebz ones but i feel that at this point biebz is the more positive cultural force? and also i don't doubt that he'll fall on a great pop hit at some point, they all do.

Bieber is a positive cultural force? or Bieber is more positive in comparison to LCD S?

more +ve in comparison

There is absolutely nothing positive about Justin Bieber in any sense imaginable.

From the ILE thread:

“For younger guys, it’s like they think they’re not cool if they come to my concert. That’ll change, I think; it’ll happen, maybe when I’m 18. But meanwhile all their girlfriends are coming to watch me.”

bieber by miles...

There is absolutely nothing positive about Justin Bieber in any sense imaginable.

entertainment value of his hysterical teenage girl fans >>>>>>> entertainment value of lcd's hysterical indie kid/rock crit fans

85% of this thread is just like o_O

otm

tbh I couldn't possibly care less about the fanbase of either; when I put in a CD or press play on my iPhone/iTunes, I don't get a fanbase coming out of my speakers

all kinds of otm. here and before.

yeah i've rejected the current musical output of both as something i don't particularly want coming out of my speakers, we're down to the next level in which i engage with these acts

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

And to consider Bieber got 35 votes *without* P4K endorsement. This kid's going places.

holy lurker turnout

guessing there are 57 lcd fans among ilm's non lurkers

results seem abt right, would be instructive to see the proportion of 'voting against' votes
