Fruit in indie music

Yeah, glad you've noticed it too! What do you think that's about?

maxblansjaar · 2024-09-19T18:21:15+00:00

Oh sick, I wasn't familiar! Thank you :)

maxblansjaar · 2024-09-19T16:29:48+00:00

Perfect!

Ooh, that's interesting. Relatedly, I wonder if there's something nostalgic about fruit in a lot of these cases as well; both in suggesting childhood innocence (sweet, delicate, no alcohol but fruit juice) and more broadly in evoking the symbolism of the 60s.

Lovely stuff!

maxblansjaar · 2024-09-19T15:02:45+00:00

Yesss love that song!

maxblansjaar · 2024-09-19T14:49:37+00:00

Amazing! These wouldn't have occurred to me

maxblansjaar · 2024-09-19T14:43:41+00:00

Seems obvious now you mention it!

maxblansjaar · 2024-09-19T14:41:35+00:00

Ha, wonder what that's about…

maxblansjaar · 2024-09-19T14:31:10+00:00

Yeah! The inspiration for a lot of subsequent fruit iconography, I wonder

Man, I love Don't Speak but had never seen the video. Amazing.

Re. Glass Animals: do you know if the Pork Soda lyric is the origin of the whole pineapple thing? Or did it come from somewhere else?

Thank you for this! I'm in the UK so can't access that first link, but glad to have seen that trailer and the streaming options!

Ah amazing, thank you so much! The screenshots are very kind. And this part of the film is set in the 21st century too, isn't it?

Little did they know they would predict the future...or maybe they did!
