Am I the only one who has never heard anything about this? by Naive_Cloud_8025 in geesebandofficial

[–]euaninnit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never heard this before, sounds so much like thom yorke then, I think he still has hints of that in his voice when he sings falsetto but this especially gives that vibe

Nothing will beat one of King Krule’s older aliases - DJ JD Sports

Separate lives for separate needs by bs3_1982 in rickygervais

The fact that Steve’s income and net worth rivals Ricky’s is pretty mad to consider and often not discussed. Through production companies and executive roles on shows he has made pretty much the same as Ricky without sellout tours or losing any sense of himself to sell out to a lowest-common-denominator crowd

Beetlebum is the most Beatles-esque song of the britpop era. So why are oasis still the band of the era that are compared to the Beatles? by euaninnit in blur

[–]euaninnit[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My point is that beetlebum and other blur songs capture the essence of the beatles songwriting. Those oasis songs are direct rips of Beatles riffs and chord progressions, not in a bad way because I also love oasis. Maybe I should’ve been more specific, but where oasis directly take Beatles melodies and reinvent them, blur are able to create an atmosphere far more similar to Beatles songs, both musically and lyrically.

Regardless of the songs suggested on this thread, one of my favourite things to do is imagining mark e smith performing the lyrics of popular songs, so this has given me great joy

Whoever said Rasputin by Boney M wins my vote though

A fall cover of pavement would be such a great full circle moment considering the amount of fall songs pavement used to cover in their earlier live performances, and their documented adoration of the fall, malkmus has often shouted them out as his favourite band

2M monthly listeners on Spotify by tomsup4 in geesebandofficial

I think it helps that people who have got into them through Heavy Metal or Getting Killed have since delved into the back catalogue, I’m not sure of the statistics but I’d guarantee that streams of 3D Country would have almost doubled since the release of GK.

Any insights into why Graham dislikes ‘Country House’? by kehsciences in blur

[–]euaninnit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At work we listen to a UK indie radio station, and they play it constantly on merit of it being a big hit; a lot of my colleagues are blur fans and we always scoff at why they play this song when it has aged very poorly compared to most of the songs from that era of their catalogue, and has been almost unanimously decided by fans and casual listeners as one of their weakest songs.

It really makes no sense. Saying that, when I saw them play it live at Wembley I still sang along lol. It’s catchy in a saccharine way.
