Song Contest Part XXIV, Host: Chipmunk, Theme: Great Song, Poor Lyrics, Noms Due: Monday 11pm AEDT

[JHF1870]

Muse and Arcade Fire also belong in that group IMO.

Arcade Fire LAtest album ok but nowhere near The Suburbs. M83 haven't ever matched Hurry up We're Dreaming

 

[Lunchlady Doris]

I think people may have billied Elton John calling the nommer a liar same as Pink Fliyd.

When did song comp not become about voting the best songs

Lots of people have admitting to voting based on meta stuff, other than purely the songs.

Was pretty sure you were one of them?

Not for some time now. But I for sure used to.

Usually ill avoid billy bait but I do try to vote the songs I like the best. Ive on many occasions shown my working out handwritten on paper. I dont ignore songs because theyre well known, just on how I feel at the time.

I genuinely billied Sheeran because I didnt like it. Also cobsidered Tyler the Creator because I prefer his hard rap.

I think Ive become much more open minded.

WTAF is your problem JHF1870 ?

Stating straight lies like saying I think Fossie is a liar and didn't go to a Pink Floyd cover band concert is low even for you. How dare you question my character.

I don't like Pink Floyd and thought a cover band song of theirs was bang average in a good PL. Simple. They finished last and YOU didn't even vote for them either. You're often bitching to start a fight by posting shade like this for reasons only you'd know. How about leave me and others tf alone instead?

For someone who whinges about people taking the song contest too seriously you should look in a mirror. For starters you can **** off with your diatribe of shade and libelous claims.

Oh and the constant sooking you've been on the last month about getting a nom rejected has been pathetic and looks like you've been bullying MWPP retroactively from my pov. Grow the **** up and have some respect for others.

Capisce?

Yu seem like mai sort of poster!

What sort of small minded individual would take a pure celebration of music like this and turn it into a spurious shitfight?

And sooking over something as insignificant as a nom being rejected!- absolutely disgusting conduct!

I for one intend to treat anyone kind enough to host with the respect and difference they are due.

Now that we have your attention, will you be entering our lovely celebration of all things music contest?

Oh trust me, he knows how it works, but he plays by his own rules.

Is he Wonka in disguise?

 

[Hydatina Physis]

Is he Wonka in disguise?

Disguise amounts to a fake moustache that keeps falling off.

 

[Dont_be_a_Plonka]

Have you entered this round?

Possibly.

 

[Ocha905]

Possibly.

Nom Lupe or Hania again and you can take all my votes.

 

[MP_]

Hahaha you could say that...
A certain rodent may also be joining us

 

[Loonerty]

To change the topic (or change it back), Hydatina Physis, I reckon I can add Tame Impala to the list of bands who have fallen victim to dreckism. Their last album was average and their new singles are anything but promising for their upcoming one. Although it seems that they're barely a band anymore and it's just Kevin Parker taking control with side projects like GUM and Pond providing an outlet for some of the other members.

The Slow Rush is actually a great album.

And pretty sure it's been just Kevin for the last two at least.

 

[Loonerty]

People hate the direction Arctic Monkeys went in but they're actually objectively false because Alex Turner can do no wrong.

 

[Lunchlady Doris]

That does raise another topic. Are there any bands that got better when a single member took the reins? I can't think of any. People might say The Faceless as their sound broadened when M.Keene took over but he also ran the band into the groud with junkie shenanigans.

Would've said the Shins, but Wincing the Night Away was recorded with the full band, and while I love Port of Morrow, Heartworms wasn't great, so maybe not.

 

[Loonerty]

Almost didn't nom before the deadline because I was reading the last couple of pages

Oh wow I haven't thought of the Shins in yonks. Wincing is the one with the black and white cover yeah? I discovered them at my local library.

What about the rest of the guys?

I'd probably agree. Picture might become a bit clearer after they've released a few more albums.

Yeah, I might’ve jumped the gun a bit with them given it's only been one album which was still well-received even if I wasn't a huge fan personally.

 

[Loonerty]

They can also do no wrong but the criticism is mostly aimed at Turner.
