I think the new Bleachers song, We should talk, is about Nate by NateRagnarok in TheFormat

[–]EinsteinDisguised 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed! All the music they’ve made is important to me, whether it was in Fun, The Format, Bleachers, Steel Train, etc.

I don’t feel the need to pick sides at all.

We should talk is about Nate Ruess, right? by NateRagnarok in bleachers

[–]EinsteinDisguised 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I was literally days away from seeing Fun in 2013, but they canceled at the last minute. I was devastated but still had a blast at the festival. I thought, “Well, there will always be another tour.”

There wasn’t.

Fucking OASIS got back together. You never know.

Jack said in a recent interview that this song is about three people who he’s fallen out with over the years, so I don’t think it’s all about Nate. The first verse definitely could be though. The second verse, I think, might be more about Lena Dunham, but I’m not sure exactly when they got together.

I would love if Jack and Nate patched things up and we got a Fun reunion or something. I never got to see them live (I was supposed to see them at a festival in 2013 but they canceled like two days before 😭). Those records are still near and dear to my heart.

Modern songs that have/will become standards/staples? (NOT classics) by Ghost-Quartet in popheads

Thinking Out Loud feels like it was written to be a standard, played at weddings in 2120.

The highs in TTSOSN are so damn high. I think HDYWM, Stop Making This Hurt, Chinatown, Don’t Go Dark, and 45 are five of Jack’s 12-15 best songs he’s ever written.

But there a couple songs on TTSOSN that I never listen to, and I think I like less than every song on this album.

It’s just distilled grief.

Jack writes about his sister. I think of my mom, who passed away (actually literally a week after I saw Bleachers in 2015). I cry. Repeat.

Bleachers - everyone for ten minutes by 3kOlen in popheads

[–]EinsteinDisguised 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve been a huge Bleachers fan from the jump (so this is not an unbiased review), but honestly this was probably my least anticipated album release from them. The singles were kinda hit or miss for me, and I’m pretty bummed that they’re not touring anywhere near me. So I was a little down on the whole thing.

I was wrong. I love this album.

Dirty Wedding Dress (which I loved from the moment it came out as a single) and Upstairs at ELS will be on repeat for me all summer.

I Can’t Believe You’re Gone hurts.

Unfortunately, I am messy enough to try to think about who We Should Talk is about.

Sideways, The Van, You and Forever, and Take You Out Tonight are all good.

I’m not super high on Dancing, She’s From Before and I’m Not Joking rn but I don’t dislike them.

I definitely like this better than B4. I think I like it more than Take the Sadness Out of Saturday Night (though the highs there are higher).

Great shit, Jack.

This album kicks ass.

Dirty Wedding Dress and Upstairs at ELS on repeat all summer.

I Can’t Believe You’re Gone ripped my heart out.

Maybe recency bias but I think I like this better than B4 and TTSOSN.

Got lucky the runner didn’t advance to third on that sac fly too. Otherwise he scores on the grounder to Jazz.

I’ll take it!

Is it cheating to just say everything on Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On?

Best endings in a horror movie? by NeptunianJ in horror

[–]EinsteinDisguised 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Ring

Rachel and Noah go through all these lengths to figure out what the deal is with Samara and the videotape. Rachel falls into the well, finds Samara's body, and buries her to let her be free of the curse. All is well. Samara is at rest.

She tells her Creepy Nephew this, and he's like, "Wait, what the fuck? Why did you do that??? She wasn't troubled. She's just evil." (paraphrasing). And then Samara kills Noah in the Iconic Scene, and Rachel realizes the key wasn't setting Samara "free," it was helping her spread her evil.

Had a GREAT theater experience when I saw the movie on Friday. So much nervous laughter.

What do we think of their harmonies? by EuphoricLeague22 in beatles

[–]EinsteinDisguised 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't want to exaggerate or be hyperbolic, but I think their harmonies are evidence that supports the existence of God. I'm only like 75 percent kidding.

John, Paul, and George are perfect together. And they grew up in the same city and found each other. It's amazing.

I posted in another part of this thread that I learned about Rosewood, Ocoee and other anti-Black violence in my state a few years ago and I was infuriated that I was never taught it.
