Maybe my expectations for them are so low these days, but I didn't mind this. Frusciante back in the band helps.

Yeah, it definitely helps. They are past their prime of course, but still some decent tracks on both albums. Looking forward to seeing them in Melbourne next Feb!

5 Eagles Last Resort - not sure what the lyrics mean but sounds brill 10/10
4 Tusk - Love this, very hard to split the top two 10/10
3 Love Shack 8.5/10
2 Afroman - was thinking it sounded like Cheech and Chong then they mention them in the lyrics! That's nice dear.jpg 8.2/10
1 Carolinian Drama - like the music, not sure about the lyrics 8.1/10

HMs Raiders March, Dune Rats, The Moss and Illuminate My Heart [epic!]

BM Saints - Punk no likey <6/10

 

[Plugger35]

Cosmic Thing was a monster album for the B52s.

Love Shack was just the first single.

They backed it up with this banger for a second single.




Every song on that album could have been a single.

If you don't have it then do yourself a favour and buy it.

1989 was a big year for bands from Athens Georgia.

Another little band from there threw down this album.

I think it's about taking advantage of something already amazing that we already have and we destroy it for something we think will make our lives better. I've basically been discussing this in another thread about overrated things, largely being NYC and how shitty all American cities are. They think they're living an amazing life, but in the end they're so ****ing miserable because they think happiness is manufactured.

Amsterdam vs NYC I know which on I'd take.

I love the slow and steady build up of this song. It's very typical of Eagles songs and albums. Well balanced and well rounded. The lyrics are deep and require critical thinking to relate to the song. Really needs to be appreciated.

In the second part of our two-part episode about the B-52’s and R.E.M.—the bands that put Athens, Georgia on the map, and helped define new-wave rock in the early ’80s—we trace how they transformed themselves from hipsters to hitmakers. One band waited years to graduate from an indie label to the majors. The other almost quit after an AIDS-related tragedy, before their pop breakthrough. By the end of the ’80s, their hits—from “Orange Crush” to “Stand,” “Channel Z” to “Love Shack”—brought them squarely into the mainstream, just as “alternative rock” was coming to define a new sound for the ’90s

[Plugger35]

The sad thing about REM and the B52s is that when they combined they produced one of the worst songs of all time.

 

[GreyCrow]

Some really good noms already in

Will check out the rest in the morning

 

[Plugger35]

I blame REM more for that Happy Shiny People abomination, they just roped Kate Pierson in.

She was in hot demand back then.

Her duet with Iggy Pop is still one of my favourite duets of all time.

 

[Plugger35]

Who is staying up for the World Cup Final?

I'm going for France, they have better bands than Argentina.

Tahiti 80 are better than Daft Punk.

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

BOTES:

5: The B-52's - "Love Shack" Chipmunk
4: Fleetwood Mac - "Tusk" GreyCrow
3: N'To - "Trauma (Worakls Remix)" MP_
2: Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young - "Ohio" Fossie 32
1: The Moss - "Insomnia" SM

BM: Afroman - "Colt 45" for s**t lyrics Rodney Dangerfield
but The Eagles nearly got it because it almost put me to sleep -_-

lol what were the lyrics?
I just did a random blind pick I don’t even know the song

 

[Fossie 32]

I think it's about taking advantage of something already amazing that we already have and we destroy it for something we think will make our lives better. I've basically been discussing this in another thread about overrated things, largely being NYC and how shitty all American cities are. They think they're living an amazing life, but in the end they're so ******* miserable because they think happiness is manufactured.

Amsterdam vs NYC I know which on I'd take.

I love the slow and steady build up of this song. It's very typical of Eagles songs and albums. Well balanced and well rounded. The lyrics are deep and require critical thinking to relate to the song. Really needs to be appreciated.

Yes
I've been reading up about it on Eagles - The Last Resort Lyrics | SongMeanings
Thoughts on the meaning vary a bit but mostly along the same lines as your thoughts.
Great lyrics and performance.

 

[GreyCrow]

BugFooty strikes

Youtube links are down for the moment - good for plugger spam bad for nomming songs from a link

[TubbsFarquhar]

[por_please_ya]

lol what were the lyrics?
I just did a random blind pick I don’t even know the song

LOL he explicitly talked about his sexual experiences with women and then a story about some guy getting caught fking another guy's wife ....

 

[por_please_ya]

Wow BigFooty is really wanting me to follow everybody! Biggest FOLLOW sign I've ever seen.

 

[GreyCrow]

Going by the plugger spam I think its all fixed

[Purple7x08_24]
