yeah even if i made a top 100 list of these years i don't think the woods would make it. but i like it fine. i don't listen to it much either, but i do call up their letterman performance of "jumpers" sometimes, it's really good.

<3 <3 <3 <3 the past 4 albums. Ne-Yo maybe the best singles artist of the time, in a nice 'wow i love hearing that on the radio now and again, its so refreshing' kinda way. Neko tugs the heart strings. Los Camp! was my #1 and post-football I may write more on it (sorry lex). And S-K are the bestest.

2005 being well repped so far.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 7 July 2010 19:55 (fourteen years ago) link
The overall sound of OK Cowboy is immaculate but it's not something I'd want to listen to all the way through. Worthy choice though.
― skip, Wednesday, 7 July 2010 19:55 (fourteen years ago) link
i think i was underwhelmed by ok cowboy at the time, but it's held up pretty well.
― hobbes, Wednesday, 7 July 2010 19:56 (fourteen years ago) link
nice! first one of my votes to show up. oh man. this album is great. epic.
― gman59, Wednesday, 7 July 2010 19:56 (fourteen years ago) link
YES vitalic!!!!!!!
i guess as an album it felt a year or two overdue at the time BUT it pretty much collected all the hits, and his music pretty much soundtracked the early to mid-00s for me; really, really pivotal for me, for a number of reasons.
when i listen to this track, i imagine skyscrapers slowly rising out of the ground:

and this is basically the most epic, banging club track ever made

i understand them all too well, it only makes them worse
i think "emily kane" and "good weekend" are out and out 10/10 classics, but i can't stand eddie argos over a whole album
― altered scones (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 7 July 2010 20:10 (fourteen years ago) link
That album is front-to-back funtime bangahs.

OH GOD I REMEMBER WHAT SONG THAT IS NOW i am literally shuddering here!!! it's that "i've seen her naked - twice!" one. oh god oh god worst song ever, i gfeel i need to scrub my brain clean after that. literally the grossest, TMI moment in any song ever.
this is because i remembered classic collection of old-skool stylus jukebox reviews of art brut

i mean, of the 3 animal collective albums that were obv gonna place (SPOILER ALERT), having one go in at 87 isn't terrible -- i thought all 3 might make the top 30 or something tbh

SJ is actually a good album tho
SJ >>> their other albums.

Los Campesinos is literally the worst thing that has EVER happened to music.. ever ever ever since it was invented and some homo neanderthalis knocked some rocks together and grunted.
― abcfsk, Wednesday, 7 July 2010 20:26 (fourteen years ago) link
what's lol about that line? it's more creepy
it's the idea of bragging about seeing a naked woman in such stupid, gauche terms that's gross

not the naked woman, obv, i am a lil kim fan after all
