see now, does that mean i'm doubly rong, or that the ronging of my comment was rong? i don't want to pick you up rong

still think it's pretty tough to argue Friends is still better as a rerun than anything Arrested Development, or 30 Rock, or Curb Your Enthusiasm has done.

or how i met your mother or the office

true, but RONG is not the same thing as just "wrong". it's not like we're talking about King of Queens here.

it's RONG if you've ever seen Arrested Development.

it's RONG if you've ever seen Friends as well

you guys are too real for me

democracy lies in ruins and Haiti is burning and y'all are arguing about Friends.

best rerun is arrested development anyway

Arrested Development, or 30 Rock, or Curb Your Enthusiasm

tbf, i just didn't categorise AD or 30 Rock as sitcoms. I really don't know why. I don't like CYE, without prejudice to how 'good' it is.

Basically I'm saying Friends is better that 2 1/2 men, HIMYM, that really shitty one about science nerds and anything that's been offered as a successor to 'Friends'- I don't think the three shows mentioned are that.

So clearly the greatest debut album of all time, in my mind.

Look if we want to talk about crooning and golden voices than let's have a real benchmark like Roy Orbison. That guy could sing a hell of a lot better than Sinatra. I mean Sinatra became a legend primarily because of his branding (rat pack) and his good looks (ol' blue eyes)... I just can't get how someone would consider him to have one of the greatest voices.

god I hate the word "branding"

esp when applied to human beings

you think sinatra had a better voice than roy orbison?

I'll take Roy Orbison any day of the week, but I'm not a big fan of the Ring a Ding Ding guy.

it's weird to hear ppl dissing sinatra repping for orbison, it's like if can fans were trashing miles davis or something

This analogy is so unbelievably RONG.

orbison and sinatra are both a-ok by me

jb's analogy sounds about right 2 me

Also Sinatra is pretty widely considered not to have a traditionally "great" singing voice, regardless of what one thinks of his stylings. Orbison otoh is considered one of the great pop voices.

the young sinatra's voice is so sweet, v different from the rat pack years (altho he could still be sensitive)
orbison was otherwordly and great, i'd still take sinatra but it wouldn't occur to me to compare

Also Sinatra is pretty widely considered not to have a traditionally "great" singing voice, regardless of what one thinks of his stylings. Orbison otoh is considered one of the great pop voices.

loooooool "traditionally great singing voice" and "great pop voices" are totally different standards. sinatra is totally one of the great pop voices.

take billie holliday, pussy, and jazz out of frank sinatra add mario lanza, country, and loserdom and you have roy orbison. orbison was nearly as much a geek for greaseball faux opera melodramatic pop as elvis and sinatra was king of that shit.

Well I worded it badly. Orbison is known for his voice in terms of more traditional measures of singing ability - range, clarity, pitch, etc. Sinatra was a much more limited vocalist with a lot of style. They're totally different kinds of singers and their music is totally different and I don't really find it weird that someone would like one and not the other.

how the fuck was orbison's range impressive????

lol you have obviously heard like two roy orbison songs in your life stfu
