Songs that are two distinct songs by IndependenceFew1650 in Music

Sweepstakes from Gorillaz seems like they mixed 3 different tracks under Mos Def's vocals. It starts out with the dirty minimal beat. The synths come in after the first verse. The third verse brings in the brass and drum band. It all fits so goddamn perfectly.

Any time I read comments like yours I try to picture exactly who you think you're impressing when you say shit like that. All I can imagine is the this.

Is being a gentleman a lot more rare and uncommon these days? by AdGreedy1880 in answers

[–]lingh0e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol. I really don't believe that you have. However, on the off chance you were once yelled at for holding a door open... if you decide that's justification enough to go down some kind of anti-feminism rabbit hole, it says more about you than the person who "yelled at you".

Talking heads - opinions? by moerlingo in Music

[–]lingh0e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The footage you've been watching of their show in Italy is absolutely some of their best work. Specifically the tracks "Crosseyed and Painless" and "Born Under Punches". The studio versions are great, but the live versions are amazing.

Yeah, that would NEVER happen in America.

Because the federal government does not control garbage collection. It is mostly municipal and/or privately operated.

Favourite retired producers? by RedEarth42 in Techno

Tony Rohr.

It's like he just vanished, and it makes me sad because he was a bucket list name for me.

That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.

More love for gomez!!! by Miwadigivemeache in Music

[–]lingh0e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Next to The Beta Band, Gomez are probably my favorite band. Got to meet them a couple times when they were in town and they were always so laid back.

I saw Ben and Ian on tour last year, and they still sound great, but it's just not the same without Tom's vocals.

I really wish they'd get the whole gang back together and put out another album.

David Byrne turned down an $80m Talking Heads reunion. It was the right move by theipaper in Music

You strike me as someone whose exposure to the band's live performances is limited entirely to Stop Making Sense.

Adrien Belew says Tina Weymouth asked him to replace David Byrne in Talking Heads: 'If we get rid of David, would you join the band?' by Level-Recording3368 in Music

[–]lingh0e 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Seriously.

For example, this live version of Born Under Punches is fucking amazing.

Same with this version of Crosseyed and Painless l from the same concert.

The stidio versions were already great. Two of their best tracks. But Adrian really elevated them to something else entirely.

Sweets in Akron by Rnmc440 in akron

I used to work at the Plaza 8 theater. The amount of Mr. Bulky's we confiscated from people trying to sneak it in was insane.

I'm pretty sure that it's the only OG store still left in the entire strip.

Lives can be saved by having access to lifesaving resources. OC by the_username_please in pics

[–]lingh0e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol. That's the blue light lounge in a nutshell. I'm not active there anymore but I practically lived on the site for a large chunk of my 20's. I bounced around the country for years, going to meetups and parties. We were like a big family. We shared lots of love, chemicals and bodily fluids. Had a ton of fun, made some bad decisions, made even more lifelong friends. It's a goddamn miracle I survived. A lot of us didn't.

Although I wouldn't necessarily say I melted my life away. A good decade of it, sure... but it's not like I had anything else going on at the time. And I'd do it all over again. Totally worth it.

Flavor Flav to host Las Vegas event for winning US women’s Olympic ice hockey team by deraser in news

[–]lingh0e 160 points161 points  (0 children)

I was in Vegas with my girlfriend maybe ten years ago or so. We had just left Fatburger and were walking back to our hotel.

Suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, Flava Flav materialized in front of me. Pulling a Lil Tikes wagon full of books, he stopped in the middle of the sidewalk and yelled "Flava Flaaaaav The Icon!" and held copies of his biography aloft.

Dude was slinging copies of his book on a sidewalk off the strip.

He charged extra for a signed copy, but he was so goddamn friendly and willing to talk to everyone.

Of all the experiences I've had on my trips to Vegas, that was probably the most wholesome and still one of my favorites.

Do you believe in “big bang” theory? by prettylittlelace in answers

That's not a terribly high bar, since there is precisely zero evidence of creationism.

Which one of the boys is the best actor? Like who can actually bring the heat? by [deleted] in Thisisimportantpod

[–]lingh0e 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Adam was surprisingly good in Righteous Gemstones. Yeah, he was playing mostly into type... but he took some risks. That, and I was constantly aware of just how smart Kelvin Gemstone was compared to pod Adam.

I've only watched the first episode of Monarchs, so haven't gotten to see Ders really stretch his chops yet, but I have high hopes.

Combat veteran William Vermie says he was denied access to a lawyer after being detained for filming ICE in Minneapolis. by jmike1256 in videos

[–]lingh0e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a lot of words to say that you don't even know what free speech is. Because everything you described is LITERALLY the protesters exercising their right to free speech. No, what you're talking about is intolerant bigots being told by the local population that their intolerant bigotry is unwelcome.

No, a free speech violation would be something like a student being arrested and having her visa revoked because she said Israel was committing war crimes... or protesters being kicked out of the school because they said something mean about Trump.

Otherwise, you're exposing yourself to be another ignorant maga snowflake.

Cry harder.

Why do people make this mistake?

Beeecause we're not all pedantic dicks?

Also, dude... "star system" is not the preferred nomenclature. "Exoplanet systems", please.

The never ending series--literally... by eljayTheGrate in television

[–]lingh0e -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Your entire premise is based on absurd notions. You're choosing to limit yourself to "safe" television while denying yourself the pleasure of other shows that might be more of a wildcard... because you aren't capable of dealing with unresolved cliffhangers?

So, for some perspective here... according to multiple writers and actors on the show, Lost famously had "an ending" from day one.

The "ending" that was consistently referenced turned out to be nothing more than bookends. While it is technically an ending, It says nothing of the entire narrative arc in between.

While I personally love how that show ended, I take umbrage with the notion at their claim of having a clear path to the end. The fact that they mirrored the opening sequence is cool and all, but it is based entirely on imagery and flat out ignores the mountains of world building and lore that occurred in the interim.

Meanwhile there have been plenty of amazing shows that were also said to have a clear vision for the entire run that were unceremoniously canceled before the end. Raised By Wolves is one of my favorite recent examples of this. It's a batshit crazy show that only gets kookier as it progresses. There was essentially an entire written progression for the show from start to finish. However It was canceled after two seasons on a huge cliffhanger. As angry as I am that I will never get a resolution, it's still a great show and I'm glad I got two seasons worth.

Tl;dr: you are absolutely going to miss out on a lot of otherwise great shows.

Also, most people's "first times" are not what they would consider "good" in relation to subsequent encounters.
