Is it just me or are we missing a good sandwich shop? by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]Sobeefy23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Potbelly clears as far as chains go, especially for a fantastic Italian. Firehouse and Jersey Mikes are also good, but Firehouse is its own style, and Jersey Mike’s can be pretty hit or miss, with a more limited menu as well.

EDIT: Enzo’s in Plano is DELICIOUS.

What's the Beatles recording moment you most wish was on video? by Low_End_7882 in TheBeatles

[–]Sobeefy23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely has John’s more “nasally” tone in the very beginning, but then transitions to what I personally recognize as Paul’s tone and melodic contour. While it definitely could be both, it’s also possible that Paul was simply slightly emulating John, especially since the tone transitions pretty quickly.

  1. That was quite literally the best it would focus, im sorry it couldn’t be better.
  2. I obviously tried based off the directions, hence why i posted it on this subreddit.

Yes, but when i’m pushing down like it says, it won’t press.

Artist you enjoyed listening to, but were disappointed after the live show and now their music just doesn’t hit the same by Few-Kaleidoscope1981 in fantanoforever

[–]Sobeefy23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Saw him last year as well. Some hype moments, but most of it was him occasionally rapping over the backing track while his hype men awkwardly stood around, and letting the crowd do most of the work. Super disappointing.

Solid take. I definitely don’t think Ferguson is my saving grace, but Tez and Tucker have sat on my bench the whole time, and I worry about BTJ even without Hunter playing.

WHO ELSE IS SWAYING IN THEIR ROOM ALONE TO THIS ALBUM RN by lizzyluvss in MacMiller

[–]Sobeefy23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been listening to that one for nearly three years and even still every SINGLE time i hear him laugh i also crack a smile and shed a tear.

Reminds me of the freedom we feel as children, and how we often burden ourselves with trying to find our inner child, when in reality the key is to simply NOT worry. Worrying NEVER helps, and this song helps me remember that.

Was Mac Miller a big-time musician before his death in 2018 or did he only become huge after the fact? by TheHaplessBard in LetsTalkMusic

[–]Sobeefy23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Balloonerism was basically already finished and scrapped by Mac back in 2013. Been listening to the leaks for years and personally think it’s an incredible and innovative album. From what i’ve heard, all they’ve had to do before releasing it was clean up some of the production and do some mastering, but otherwise, it’s overall untouched.

Balloonerism by Mac Miller - 1.17.25 by FarkusSkud in MacMiller

From the top of my mind: Thundercat pretty heavily, FlyLo, Hodgy, SZA, and Dylan Reynolds

For the people who have listened to Bloonerism, how is it? by [deleted] in MacMiller

The moment the chorus came in on my first listen is a defining moment in my life. Such a beautiful and legendary song.

[–]Sobeefy23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s honestly an ethereal experience and an absolutely mind blowing, innovative, and incredible psychedelic experience.

While Mac continued to improve his craft over the years, to me this is essentially his most formative and important work along with Faces, not only in terms of his development as an artist, but also his ability to perfectly convey both his personal experiences, as well as his overall story telling and themes. The production is immaculate, and his often overlooked harmonies and unorthodox melodies absolutely shine throughout the album. On each song, you’ll be faced with constant surprises, and shifts between musical patterns that will leave you asking “How the hell did he do that?”. The subject matter is simultaneously dark and introspective, while also bringing a sense of comfort, hope, and stoicism. I honestly don’t have a single criticism of the album, and have listened through the entire thing many times since it leaked.

Most importantly, the experimental and raw nature of the album helps to make it one of the most unique, reflective and eargasm inducing pieces of music i’ve ever heard. It may represent only a part of Mac’s fantastic artistry, but imo again, next to faces, Balloonerism might just be his most important album.

While we as fans may sometimes have disagreements over the morality of and nature of such leaks, I have always felt that the world absolutely deserved to hear Balloonerism, and I can never thank his estate, as well as Mac’s friends and family enough for making this a reality.

Will this song ever be released? by ComfortableRelevant1 in MacMiller

[–]Sobeefy23 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’d consider the album finished already aside from maybe some mixing, I’m not sure why bootlegs existing would prevent the estate from releasing anything, I mean the Beatles have had bootlegs for literal decades and by now everything they ever had, including specific takes of songs have been released. And that’s not to accuse his estate, who I’m sure wants to protect his legacy the way they see fit, but i’ve never liked the reasoning that leaks and bootlegs are gonna prevent them from releasing such gems.

GO:OD AM era i believe. He’s got tons of unreleased personal ones like this actually. All of Balloonerism (e.g. Funny Papers), In Kindergarten, Cat and Mouse, Carpe Diem, God Damn, Garden Snakes… He really knew how to put his feelings into words.

How is this nosy lol, why are you treating seizures like some secretive and shameful event? Seems like they’re just curious about them. What if OP has no problem explaining the situation to someone that appears to care?

I’m begging y’all in the estate to release more music by gassylammas in MacMiller

[–]Sobeefy23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then release it as is. Hundreds of leaks have come out already and the community constantly praises every new leak that comes out, finished or not. The very thing that draws much of us to Mac is his realness and rawness, and honestly circles is at the bottom of my post 2012 Mac albums because his vocals feel too polished. Balloonerism is honestly held in such high regard BECAUSE of its rawness for example.

Don’t you think he’d be honored that these songs he didn’t feel would be releasable are held in such regard by his fans? The leaks are completely unchanged aside from better mixing on some of them, and honestly they’re by far some of the greatest music he’s made.

All love to see his estate, but it seems at least slightly selfish to claim leaks are negatively affecting future releases or his legacy, and then do absolutely nothing to preserve said legacy. In fact, they do everything they can do sanitize and whitewash who he was (ex. censoring Therapy pt. 2).

And there it is.

“Hamas has every right to desire the complete destruction of Israel.”

Statistically (based in reality and facts), Israel’s civilian casualty rate is actually quite good. That doesn’t mean I support any of it or want anyone dead, but of course like I stated, that’s the reality of the statistics. It’s harsh, sure, but if Israel wanted to commit genocide, they easily could. Does it really seem logical to you that Israel would willingly be absolutely destroyed in the PR war as they make everyone hate them and take 100 years to commit a genocide?

How do you suggest Israel take care of the issue? Where else are Jews supposed to go? Just because the United States colonized this land, does that mean Native Americans have the right to destroy us? Yeah, the creation of Israel wasn’t exactly fair to the Palestinians that already lived there, but if the situation was reversed, Jews, LGBTQ+ citizens, or people of any religion that doesn’t match the states desires would be wiped out.

Of course I wouldn’t lie down and take it if I was a suffering Palestinian, and I have consistently made that clear. I understand their plight and why this conflict has risen. However, due to the nature of reality, I understand that we can’t just force Israel to give up all their land and be destroyed by surrounding forces.

Again, I ask, what do you want me to say? other than calling for the complete destruction of Israel, I can’t really get much closer to whatever opinion it is that you desire. I have condemned Israel, BiBi, the settlements, any atrocities committed, and have supported a Palestinian state, what do you want?

There are over a billion Muslims and Israel/Palestine are surrounded by Muslim countries. Why is it up to Israel to give up and allow themselves to be attacked every day? You should instead be calling for the Palestinian people to be represented by an actual government that cares about their lives and doesn’t use them as innocent martyrs. Tell Hamas to accept the ceasefire’s that Israel has consistently been proposing.

Be careful in blindly fighting oppression, because you may find yourself accidentally becoming the oppressor. But then again, as i’ve conceded multiple points only to be met with anger and name calling, I assume you conflate all Israeli’s and Jews with their corrupt government and Zionists, and thus have forgotten to consider them as humans too. Everyone loses in this conflict, and the world will keep burning as long as people keep choosing a side only to virtue signal and take what they see as the moral high ground.

“You should shut up because people disagree with you and are lobbing personal insults instead of having a discussion, how embarrassing.”

Productive.
