lxy, Wednesday, 26 March 2008 06:33 (sixteen years ago) link

just watched j. geils band on youtube and i'm pretty sure i've never heard "centerfold" before. sounds like....huey lewis & the news + tom petty?

that paul simon song isn't bad. my mom was playing stuff off of graceland the last time i was down there and it sounded pretty good! i'd never heard it before.

max max max max, Friday, 30 May 2008 15:21 (sixteen years ago) link

not as much as we hate ken's market

lxy, Friday, 30 May 2008 17:17 (sixteen years ago) link

that song has strong associations w. childhood for me its hard to hate it

max max max max, Friday, 30 May 2008 17:41 (sixteen years ago) link

i still rock that album from time to time

max max max max, Friday, 30 May 2008 17:42 (sixteen years ago) link

what abt the terje dub?

max max max max, Friday, 30 May 2008 17:42 (sixteen years ago) link

haven't heard it but i like the other terje dubs i've heard so probably it is good.

that song gets into my head for weeks and weeks on end when i hear it; that's the main reason i don't want to hear it in my market.

max max max max, Saturday, 31 May 2008 22:20 (sixteen years ago) link

^^ terje dub, its good. maybe it will teach u to appreciate!

max max max max, Saturday, 31 May 2008 22:20 (sixteen years ago) link

thanks, max! that was really nice of you.

i think i've just heard that song way way way too many times. i do like terje's tweaks though.

(what's funny: the word "max" is all over the download page, causing me to wonder: when i upload something, does the page say "lxy" everywhere?)

lxy, Saturday, 31 May 2008 22:40 (sixteen years ago) link

next thing ur going to be telling me you hate sweet home alabama!!!!

max max max max, Saturday, 31 May 2008 22:42 (sixteen years ago) link

jk i hate sweet home alabama

max max max max, Saturday, 31 May 2008 22:42 (sixteen years ago) link

tru confession: i secretly love sweet home alabama, having been born in alabama. that should not be confused with my wanting to hear the song, mind you.

lxy, Saturday, 31 May 2008 22:43 (sixteen years ago) link

see, i just went to ken's market and i don't even know what song was playing because of the paul simon running through my head. that's why.

lxy, Saturday, 31 May 2008 23:05 (sixteen years ago) link

other than overexposure, i can't see hating diamonds on the soles of her shoes, really.

Lingbert, Sunday, 1 June 2008 04:23 (sixteen years ago) link

^^^ otm as always

max max max max, Sunday, 1 June 2008 08:31 (sixteen years ago) link

you two deserve each other

jergins, Sunday, 1 June 2008 19:34 (sixteen years ago) link

haha terje dub is GREAT esp first two minutes perfect kinda watery spacy bongo/africa thing i can never get enough of. also i have no bad associations with this song at all, maybe have only heard it a few times? yeah, Centerfold is WAY WAY worse a song

jergins, Sunday, 1 June 2008 20:36 (sixteen years ago) link

you guys really hate that paul simon song??

you of all people should be glad about that

jergins, Monday, 2 June 2008 22:07 (sixteen years ago) link

i don't understand what you mean...........................................

Lingbert, Tuesday, 3 June 2008 07:12 (sixteen years ago) link

did you sing it at karaoke?

lxy, Tuesday, 3 June 2008 15:16 (sixteen years ago) link

no. i sang:
tina turner - private dancer (sung with someone else)
whitney houston - the greatest love of all
[i don't know who sings it] - the lady in red (sung with someone else)

U. and i thought we were going up there to sing bill withers - "lovely day" but apparently M. thought it would be funny to add my name with "the lady in red" to the list, so we ended up singing that.

bill withers - "lovely day" was still in the queue, but there were at least two more people in front of us, and i couldn't make myself others sit through any more horrible people singing horribly, so we left

Lingbert, Tuesday, 3 June 2008 16:40 (sixteen years ago) link

lady in red is my karaoke standby

i have never seen you post as lovely as you have tonight

jergins, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 16:10 (sixteen years ago) link

i figured out my problem with "diamonds on the soles of her shoes" and this is it:

when i hear that song, or even just think of it, i get fucking "you can call me al" stuck in my head! THE WRONG SONG in my head, for ages ages like months i mean. see, how annoying is that?

except i also realized (recently) that the lyrics playing endlessly in my head have morphed into:

am0n walks down the street
he says why am i short of attention
etc.

so now i like it better.

lxy, Monday, 9 June 2008 17:07 (sixteen years ago) link

also ken's worst has a new contender:

disco edit of janis ian's "seventeen" or whatever the fuck that horrible horrible song is.

the people who work there must be completely dead inside.

lxy, Monday, 9 June 2008 17:10 (sixteen years ago) link

i've been trying to be nicer to the people that work there, mostly kate
