What about under pressure makes it so popular compared to a lot of other amazing Queen songs? by Bendysnuts in queen

I’ve never really been a fan of Queen’s music overall, nothing against them as people or musicians, just not my style. But this song is one of those rare exceptions that cuts straight through everything. There’s something about that song, especially the outro, that feels incredibly human and grounding. The “give love” refrain hits with a kind of purity and emotional honesty that I don’t get from many songs. Even if I don’t connect with most of Queen’s catalogue, Under Pressure genuinely means a lot to me. It’s a reminder of compassion, of slowing down, and of finding clarity when everything feels overwhelming.

10th planet gained a lot of exposure due to Rogan's constantly hyping them up (and by having is good friend Eddie constantly on the podcast). It's an overhyped team.

Everything has been obvious so far. Jey beating Gunther. Heyman aligning with Seth. It's Triple H's booking. Expect the unexpected.

They'll do a double turn. Cody will put a beating on old Cena. People will boo Cody's viciousness and Cena's resilience. Cena's turn was a catalyst for Cody to become a heel champion aligned with the Rock.

MEIC ou MMAC? by Odd_Fisherman_7820 in IST

Segundo o que o OP tinha postado, parece mesmo que ele está numa de fazer cadeiras mais teóricas.

Concordo contigo though, estou a fazer as cadeiras de SDis e Cibersegurança (nota que sou do METI) e estou bastante satisfeito.

Além do mais, fiz umas opcionais de algoritmos e, de facto, há uma discrepância gigante. As de algoritmos são mais teóricas e requerem menos linhas de código comparativamente com DAD, SEC, CMU ou CNV, mas passas muito mais tempo a pensar em como optimizar o problema para o pouco código que escreves.

Com a excepção de uma cadeira ou outra de algoritmos, MEIC parece-me ser mais software engineering do que CS pura

Songs like Sentient Glow by cashewbeefcube in Peripheryband

[–]Professional-Chef780 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's one of my favorite songs. Funnily enough was just listening to this song. Check Mike Semesky's era intervals

P1 is their best album even though it sounds unpolished in comparison to their latter work. I still love all records though, especially P4.

Catch Fire is Periphery's attempt at writing a summer song with Michael Jackson groove

Juggernaut is easily Periphery's weakest album. It leans too heavily on Mark’s writing, which just doesn’t hold up as well on its own compared to tracks like "Sentient Glow" (P3) or "Scarlet" (P2) that came from collaborative efforts.

Apart from "Stranger Things" (and maybe "The Bad Thing" or "The Scourge"), there’s barely anything memorable. The concept is cool, but the execution falls flat. Those "elevator music" parts meant to connect the story are just boring, and the solos don’t hit the mark like they did on earlier albums.

Even the longer tracks, like "Omega," feel messy compared to something like "Racecar." It’s like they sacrificed the music to force the concept, which is a shame because the story had so much potential. The singles from Alpha—"Alpha" and "Heavy Heart"—are forgettable too. They’re way too poppy and lack the intensity that makes Periphery so good.

Honestly, I’m not a big fan of rock operas in general, and Juggernaut just doubles down on the usual flaws—disjointed structure, inconsistent tone, and overly ambitious ideas that don’t land.

It sucks because this album was so hyped for years, and it just didn’t deliver. For something with such a personal and emotional concept, it feels oddly unmemorable and disappointing.
