But then there's a burst of hard rock and an omniscient, 35-millimeter camera swoops over the trees, and we're suddenly in the land of conventional horror movies—of Friday the 13th (1980) and The Evil Dead (1983) and all those other splatter flicks in which attractive young people set out to party hearty while we munch our popcorn and wait for someone to be impaled.

maybe he meant it was so real and true-to-life that it was barely tv
― n/a, Friday, 9 November 2007 17:44 (seventeen years ago) link
i think that's probably what he meant
I just don't find the results as interesting as the discussion or the opportunity to revisit records....for instance, a little something I like to call BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUB!!!

OMG! "Red eyes and tears no more for you my love I fear. Red eyes and tears no more for you my love I fear. No more fear, no more fear I'm in love." Should I start a thread where I sing all of B.M.R.C. to y'all?
They're sexier than The Jesus & Mary Chain. I feel you could strip to something like "Red Eyes and Tears." Quite gyratable, that one. Could you strip to anything off of Psychocandy?
Gawd, I absolutely adore this record!!!!

I'd argue that the cover for The Chronic is worse than the one for Doggystyle. -- miccio (miccio), Monday, November 22, 2004 11:42 AM (2 years ago) Bookmark Link

ftr i think they are both pretty classic covers, just like the chronic one much more.
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 10 November 2007 06:39 (seventeen years ago) link
If there's ever a shitty album cover/classic album thread, Doggystyle would be my nomination.
Maybe there is such a thread. I ain't digging for it.

I Want You is bleh, but what I've heard of Here, My Dear is fairly incredible musically, even when it gets too literal lyrically.

you'd be right if "The Chronic" was in a word balloon coming from Dre's mouth.

Prince is about 800x better than Bowie

― 69, Monday, 12 November 2007 03:12 (seventeen years ago) link
I'd even go 10x! If we're only counting Bowie since Prince has been recording, then we're getting closer to 800.

Has Prince ever been seen publicly playing a saxophone? If not, maybe that's something Bowie does better. By default.

potshots all round seriously though even if prince and bowie were neck & neck in the writing and production stakes, prince has done a lot more vaguely embarrassing shit vis a vis blogging about himself in sub-txt msg 11-yo girl talk and trying to change his name to a hieroglyph for "sexually confused"

How beautiful do the words have 2 be Before they conquer every heart? How will U know if I'm even in the right key If U make me stop before I start?
CHORUS: If I came back as a dolphin Would U listen 2 me then? Would U let me be your friend? Would U let me in? U can cut off all my fins But 2 your ways I will not bend I'll die before I let U tell me how 2 swim And I'll come back again as a dolphin
Why does my brother have 2 go hungry When U told him there was food 4 all? This is the man that stands next 2 the man That stands 2 catch U when U fall (Oh!)
CHORUS
If I'm under water, will U find me? (Find me {x4}) Will U shine a light and try 2 guide me? It's happened before, I've knocked on your door But U wouldn't let me in
How beautiful do the words have 2 be Before they conquer every heart? (Oh!)
If I came back as a dolphin Would U listen 2 me then? Would U let me be your friend? Would U let me in? U can cut off all my fins But 2 your ways I will not bend I'll die before I let U tell me how 2 swim Come back in the end as a dolphin (Oh) (I'll come back, baby) (Let me in, let me in) As a dolphin (Be my friend) Dolphin (Yeah, yeah)
