Saw a photo of her yesterday and her lips often really freak me out. Every time I see her doing a shakey version of VG it seems like she's trying her best not to open her mouth too much because she's just got an injection or something.

sneddon's music production team is called "the nexus"? wonder what *that's* ripping off.

She seems like a nice lady:

She comes across as far more endearing in the videos than vampy. Interesting.

Agree that she "seems nice" though. I like her more now that I've heard her accent.

i heard video games on the radio the other day for the first time
What kind of station was it? i.e., is she actually getting commercial airplay?
― Bon Ivoj (jaymc), Thursday, 12 January 2012 20:13 (twelve years ago) link
it's apparently on the pop charts in a whole bunch of countries, although in America it's only been on a singles sales chart so far.
finally heard this stupid song when MTV2 started playing the video -- lol @ gr8080's fav facial reconstruction surgery casualty having a cameo

MTV-U plays this thing constantly... I fall asleep to that channel sometimes, and my cable box "times out" after 6-7 hours or so and freezes on an image (I'm guessing that happens often with channels that aren't viewed as often within a given node)...
So the moral of the story is, a few weeks ago I woke up to a frozen image of this chick on my TV and it weirded me out

she's like fake naughty zooey deschanel.
see, I am interested in this because I wish zooey's public persona was all an elaborate act and would find her more intriguing if I felt that was the case
like she goes home and just orders pizza from dominos and listens to old Tool albums or something when she's out of the public eye
I'm putty emphasis on:fake "naughty zooey deschanel"
If you meant it as "fake naughty" zooey deschanelthen I am not with you

it was KFOG in the bay area, which is 'classic rock', oddly enough.

kcrw (l.a.'s npr station; pretty influential in yuppie circles) has been playing "video games." not constantly, but it is getting airplay.
― my copy has boobs (get bent), Thursday, 12 January 2012 20:48 (twelve years ago) link
"classic rock" isn't a good descriptor for KFOG. They do "adult album alternative, an eclectic variety of blues, reggae, folk, pop, and rock music from the mid-1960s to the present" ... meaning that it an easy listening station imo

i'm not really sure how i meant it, but your analysis is interestingthey both have "endearing" qualities and have been described as such (and reviled for it, too), and honestly i don't even really know what that means when people say it
― La Lechera, Thursday, 12 January 2012 21:07 (twelve years ago) link
I kind of like the couple Lana Del Rey songs I've heard in a way
I will openly admit to have never heard a full Zooey song, or if I have heard one, I have not realized it was her.

the writeup is a little annoying in its "you'd think this girl would be super nervous but she was totally shill!" tone
― ⚓ (gr8080), Thursday, 12 January 2012 22:27 (twelve years ago) link
In her songs she comes across as a star-crossed lover mixed with a kind of breathy young thing; she's selling a lot of sex and lot of young love angst. In the videos above, she comes across as funny and a bit goofy and self-aware enough to be a little bit self-deprecating. I really mean endearing 'cause everything I'd seen her in before was in her shy nymph persona with a slightly squeaky voice and was not so endearing.

Zooey can't eat Dominoes, brings back too many painful memories.
Gibbard says that he realized he needed to change after a particular bender with a friend in Big Sur, CA. "It was so stereotypically my own little Kerouac Big Sur weekend," Gibbard says. "And I remember being on the flight home, going, 'You know what? I really have to do something about this. This has really gotten out of control. But I have a friend's birthday tonight, and I need to go out and have a beer with him.' Cut to three in the morning, five beers and five shots in, eating a pizza. I woke up the next morning and I was like, 'That's it. I'm done. I have lost the ability to control this.'"

yeah radio is battering it over here, she's basically massive already; Top 10 hit, prime time Saturday night TV, Q cover, BRIT nomination. there was even a big piece in the Daily Mail this week.
i'm guessing 'Billboard' is a big magazine in the States? http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/393552_307191255989998_117713628271096_793739_1063308823_n.jpg
