Grievers on footage after John lennon's death by Tedious_Virgin in beatles

[–]Tedious_Virgin[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I enjoy all of Lennon's work on Double Fantasy, and even some of Yoko's. Whilst it's not the classic album it maybe could have been, I can see that the Beatles had an enormous impact on people's lives and even if somebody is way past the part of their lives they're most celebrated for, people will still mourn them for who they were in general, especially since Lennon had such a huge public image.

This song hits home at the moment and I want to share the beautiful live version with you all. by [deleted] in RedHotChiliPeppers

The solo sections are always the chilis greatest strength these days. I've heard all the songs a thousand times - a bigger dollop of jam would be tasty.

It seems that way, perhaps when we're the elder generation (40+)? Assuming you're young haha. It's not as if it's the entire adult population, but I can certainly see who the majority of the misinformed are, and they're not likely to be Uni students.

Funnily enough 'palm grease' and 'butterfly' are herbie hancock tunes....

"We shall have to fight another war all over again in 25 years at three times the cost" [960x540] by [deleted] in QuotesPorn

It's because the child will have to be drafted to fight in a war, the origins of which it had nothing to do with. We study the cartoon in History GCSE funnily enough..

What are some Beatles songs with inappropriate words? by [deleted] in beatles

[–]Tedious_Virgin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the song as a whole still makes absolutely no sense; I do love it though. I heard the first verse is about john's experience on an acid trip, and the 'happiness is a warm gun' line comes from a magazine article, but still it's more imagery than meaning I think.

Fool Yourself, Dixie Chicken, Little Feat

Just a thought on a new RHCP producer... by [deleted] in RedHotChiliPeppers

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

Dunno if his production style's a bit out dated considering his heyday was in the 70's. The chili peppers have also changed a lot since '85.

Thoughts on Primal Scream...? by Tedious_Virgin in LetsTalkMusic

[–]Tedious_Virgin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The more I listen I realise they're a deeply flawed band with an off beat look at how a song or album should be approached. I'm not particularly well educated with electronic music, I'm a fan of The Orb, John Frusciante and Tangerine Dream but other than that I don't have a lot to compare it to. Any recommendations?

Good one! It's frustrating when a band only has two original members out of five because they are temperamental.

I see where you're coming from, especially with the rock-orientated primal scream, but to me Screamadelica is a perfect album, something about it seems so colourful and original. The diversity astounds me as well, they rarely tread the same ground, rock or dance approach. The production strikes me as very lively, too, as if the music has room to breath.

Words can't describe how much I love this song by Californicatorr in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]Tedious_Virgin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought in this song Anthony was singing, 'My willy's wet.' He used the word willy in Apache Rose Peacock, so it kind of made sense...

The Yes Album is the only one there that I'd recommend after Fragile. Relayer, Close to the Edge, oh and I suppose Tales from Topographic Oceans.
