RELIGION

I kept trying to understand that quote and somehow now have ended up at:

"I SAID POO!/BEING RUBBED IN MY FACE!"

One of my co workers brought up What's Going On at lunch today. Their legacy is trending

I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
this was, like, specifically written to troll me

You'll find, upon listening again, that the line actually ends at 'hood' so that should rhymes with hood

Then the next line just goes through to the finish, all the way through to means.

That's songwriting.

so in the end you realized WHAT EXACTLY LINDA

That's a good lyric too can you hum the air of it for us

for whatever that means

I like how her inflection and phrasing are all deranged and don't fit her meaning

i don't really have a problem with either of these songs

What's Up is brilliant

"What's Up?" is getting to the dining hall and discovering that all they are serving for meals for the foreseeable future is syphilis.

― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP)

whoa, i never knew we went to the same college

whenever i think of "what's up" i think of the rudy schwartz project cover, which i think nails its essential nature.

What's Up is a brilliant torture device, much more effective than waterboarding

great songs both

--Bob Marley

And I scream at the top of my lungs what's goin on

And he said "Radio Raheem is dead!"

Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
And I scream at the top of my lungs, "What's going on?"

I'm not that into screamers.

literally every frame is a gem. take about 32 screenshots and cycle 'em in & out as desktop pictures

wtf is up with her head voice in this......

going to add to the 3 years long pile of people itt occasionally going "holy crud what i am is an 80s song?"

wtf is up with her head voice in this......

"what's up" is that she's very flat every time she does the falsetto. a few other times too.

is that bill bellamy back there?

oh no watching that has FUCKED my youtube recommendations

wtf is up with her head voice

The problem is that she forgot her Hat Goggles.

"holy crud what i am is an 80s song?"

That video made me sad. She obviously has a cold and it's messing with her ear.

I feel like I can at least appreciate "What I Am" on the basis that it might be one of the most 90s sounding songs of the 1980s. Like it feels almost 5 years ahead of its time.

this was a good post - "What I Am," with worse production & different clothes, would have sat real nice next to Crazytown & Sugar Ray's "Someday" and a bunch of other mid-tempo mildly stoned jams, and then they could all be thrown into the same trash can

Come my lady
Come come my lady
Are you what you are or what?

man, what's up with that?

Everybody playing what I am my jr yr of college was a fake deadhead ecstatic that touch of grey was on radio hit and finally a deadhead friendly young band and let's hack man.

my freshman year roommate knew the what i am guitar solo NOTE FOR NOTE. what a pantydropper eh boys

So glad I hit that sweet spot between Edie Brickell and Jewell for my college years. LICK MY LIPS I'M ON FIRE

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
And I scream at the top of my lungs, "What's going on?"

argh

good lord, that spring break performance is dire. band and audience both seem bored and tired, and perry cannot adjust whatsoever to a different vibe/scale of audience. not sure a laid-back, beachy good-time version of "what's up" is possible but it would have been worth it to try.

I was just going to ask about that really fucked up acoustic guitar, can't search the thread on my phone but shocked of that hadn't been brought up yet.

Also the mocking of the envelope filter guitar solo the other day got me listening to a bunch of 70s versions of "Fire on the Mountain" which has been good.

Thanks, y'all, for helping me focus my hate.

Touch of grey was a the shitty mulch imo, seemed like he inev conclusion

This stupid bar has played both in the last hour

Hate to be a bummer, but it's possible you had an unexpected and deadly accident and are now in the bad place.

It’s true

I love how it was uncool in the 90s to name your song after the chorus and What's Up is my favorite example and on an unrelated note my least favorite song of all time

yeah I like what I am more

Alfred you definitely bring up a good point that Edie pioneered that college radio reared hippies market niche that Matthews et al took to the bank

i hope he was really drunk when those songs played
