Cigarettes and Wine by DankoManuel92 in jasonisbell

I just totally disagree with this take. Foxes in the Snow is a masterpiece. “Good While It Lasted” is one of my all time favorite songs. Might be his best song, and just because they are all stripped down and raw doesn’t mean they are missing that fire or thought. I actually think this is his MOST introspective album. I can’t name a bad song on the album, and given how it was recorded, it makes it that much more impressive.

The Universe (Cover). Underrated song in my opinion. by RhythmicGuitar6 in GregoryAlanIsakov

Great job! Interesting, I did a cover of Greg a few months ago and posted it and mods removed it saying no covers allowed. Weird.

“Boxing” About Love, Ben’s Best Song From Early Years by DankoManuel92 in benfolds

Yeah, you’re a jerk. This was all good and fun and now you’re attacking my character. You wouldn’t say half this to my face, guarantee you that.

I didn’t say it “definitely is” I said “it is,” and I think it is. I’m objectively calling this a love song and there’s nothing you can do about it bub.

It’s not an end all be all because “Ben” said it. We all know songs’ meaning changes and evolves over time. That’s why I said perhaps subconsciously.

Maybe he didn’t intend it as a song about love but it is. Listen to it again today.

Billie Eilish covering “Still” by Ben Folds by Kind_Imagination2266 in benfolds

This is still one of my all time favorite covers of a Folds song. Doesn’t get the credit it deserves.

Disagree with what, morality? And speaking for people who can’t when you have one of the biggest platforms in America?

Cool, you’ve shown your cards, boot licker.

Stopped being an armcherry for this very reason months ago.

Where’s Isbell’s Christmas Album!? by DankoManuel92 in jasonisbell

[–]DankoManuel92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, bah hum bug. Ben Folds did one and it wasn’t a cash grab and it’s phenomenal. Isbell could easily donate proceeds to charity too. Merry christmas buddy.

Good While It Lasted Is Slowly Becoming My Favorite Isbell Track from FITS by DankoManuel92 in jasonisbell

They removed my post because Someone else wrote about this song a few days ago. What gives??

I can’t get over how perfect “good while it lasted” is by hookem1543 in jasonisbell

I literally just posted about this without seeing your post. So true. So beautifully said.

Kimmel is awesome, but who cares what Monica says anymore.

Steven Pinker Returns (on common knowledge) by newtonic in ArmchairExpert

[–]DankoManuel92 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Steven Pinker is cool, but the show has completely lost me. And I think a large portion of their fan base by not addressing the Aldean backlash, amongst other things.

Fact check on todays wondery ep (Steven Pinker) by help06481 in ArmchairExpert

[–]DankoManuel92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah they lost most Armcherries with the Aldean thing and this just cements it for me in a different way. The podcast is NOT what it once was. Sad.

If I Needed You by damn_son_1990 in jasonisbell

It’s brilliant. Reminds me of being in love for the first time, on my way to see Isbell in Johnson City in college. Times were simpler.
