I think I agree, but on the other hand it probably wins my Song Title Walrus.
Queen would have probably been a safer bet for the first question.
Don’t hate me, woman, but 5 points for sexy rexxy with ‘A Forest’ by The Cure.
80s new wave pop had so much to offer, and The Cure were not among the best from that era. Why Cure when you can Tears for Fears, Depeche Mode, U2 or so many others? This 8 minute live performance of encyclopedic mediocrity and repetition is bookended by Smith insulting the next act to perform: Robert Palmer. It’s in noway cool, and just more arrogance without basis from an angsty nerd. It does groove a bit, but holy Jesus is it the same simple childish chord progression in perpetuity
I got my mojo back!
gutted
you’re dead to me riv!
You should have waited with that one until miliboo is the host:
omg way to rub it in Louis!
putting a number of these in proper order was hard, but with 6 points… next up! my boyee Lacazette with Fuckin’ with my Head(Mountain Dew Rock) by Beck.
I dug the track ‘Loser,’ and the immediately apparent authenticity with an artist like Beck, but was never inspired to really know more. This track is from the same album, and basically is not good.
It takes 2 standard blues-type riffs and butchers what is already a dead horse ( see any blues riff that’s been parroted innumerable times without innovating upon it.) In the middle of the song, there is some break that incorporates this annoying buzz of like TV white noise. No thanks.
Also, there’s a brief melodic passage that’s used twice or thrice throughout the song, and if it’s not plagiarized, it’s clearly derivative of something else – and like an out-of-place offering in the song to include a required element.
lol that was harsh.
Top5 The Cure tracks go:
(not necessarily in power order)
1. Close To Me (horns edit)
2. A Few Hours After This
3. The 13th
4. Push
5. Just Like Heaven
Any list that does not include Burn is invalid.
You’re trying to out-deep-cut me up in here.
idk if it’s top 5 but I really like Jumping someone elses train
Actually I don’t know if a track only appearing on a soundtrack qualifies as a deep cut but imo it does.
That’s why a top5 is where the rubber meets the road.
I had to leave off Prayers For Rain.
Let me also add Last Dance into evidence.
If I get a chance to run a Walrus it’s gunna be brutal.
Was rooting for fellow lurker seites, but now Rexx gets my full support.
I’m gonna do an all-The Cure walrus.
1. Song from Distengration that made you finally jump off a bridge.
2. Darkest song that sounded the funniest when you were high.
etc
Dislike.
no u
