Gus's Top 100 Bootlickin' Nonce Anthems

We triggered Danny!

Yes, you Lads have spent 15 years meticulously charting the political fault lines and aesthetic micro-gestures and subcultural sub-divisions of your own youth culture. I don't understand why you're confused why Americans half your age might occasionally try to do the same with theirs

they love that 'dumb n bass' thread

 

[linebaugh]

even if they are unable to identify what makes it any different from jungle

The "Bohemian Rhapsody" of the 200s:

@linebaugh look at those cowboy hats and 6 shooters. Proper Westerners.

 

[sus]

So many melodic and tonal shifts, so many different catchy bits glued together what more could you ask for

"Don't you put me on the back burner, you know you gotta help me out"

 

[linebaugh]

that song was the deep cut for kids in highschool that were 'in to music.' 'oh you like mr brightside, well check this one out...'

 

[sus]

This music video is inspired by Jodorowsky's El Topo btw. High culture.

@linebaugh You've got soul, but are you a soldier?

 

[linebaugh]

proud to say I never had a killers phase. I was to busy looking for the best rendition of 'Run like an antelope out of control' from the mid 90's

 

[sus]

I like the part when the girls are on-screen with their cleavage and then they lick their boomerangs and throw them at the boys

 

[version]

maybe, but that seems more of a joke. People here really love mr brightside. maybe wonderwall is different for the UK

I thought that's what you meant by "a bit of postmodern awareness,". That people love it, but it's also a meme.

It's not about having a PHASE I didn't have a PHASE this stuff was inescapable, I've heard this song dozens of times, I know half the words, despite never downloading it / putting on my iPod etc

that is what I mean. I just dont think Americans love wonderwall. Maybe the brits do but its more punchline than genuine love here

@linebaugh where should I start with Phish?

 

[sus]

in the States, the 14 year old who just learned acoustic guitar and plays "Wonderwall" at parties is a trope of frequent ridicule

I wasn't talking about Americans in particular, I was talking about a similar dynamic around that song.

youve had sex before, yes? at least once? its too late

 

[version]

The only Killers song I can see myself choosing to listen to is 'The Man'.

perhaps, just havent personally experienced it. I can see Corpsey and his cohort of 35 year old marketing associates going crazy for it at a company retreat in cyprus though
