I just got into these guys this week! I mean, I had heard Random Rules before and think it's a total classic, but this week a bought a bunch of their records and am totally immersed in them. Right now "Send in the Clouds" is sticking with me the best.

altho I also like "Dallas" a lot and nobody has mentioned it yet so maybe I'll change my pick

bernard snowy, Monday, 4 April 2011 02:26 (fifteen years ago)

on the last day of your life, don't forget to die.

nicky lo-fi, Monday, 4 April 2011 11:45 (fifteen years ago)

how to rent a room or black and brown blues. i can't chose.

cw, Tuesday, 5 April 2011 21:01 (fifteen years ago)

dallas is so great.

"How'd you turn a billion steers
into buildings made of mirrors,
and why am I drawn to you tonight?"

it's either that or "slow education"

daily growing, Tuesday, 5 April 2011 22:09 (fifteen years ago)

"We saw B.B. King on General Hospital."

Love "Dallas," but there was a long period when I generally thought of "People" as my favorite song ever, so I gotta go with that.

the drums march along at the clip of an ivory drip like sparks from a muffler dragged down the strip. uh huh

How can I love you

dblake (symsymsym), Sunday, 8 May 2011 09:44 (fifteen years ago)

I want to hang out at a bar where they play "Tennesee"! Where was that?!

Walter Galt, Sunday, 8 May 2011 10:23 (fifteen years ago)

"... clip of an I.V. drip ..." no?

CompuPost, Sunday, 8 May 2011 13:09 (fifteen years ago)

my more-or-less-faithful crack at "dallas": http://bloodcoverletters.tumblr.com/post/5162286201/09-silver-jews-dallas-destroyer

such a great fuckin' song

"Hungry clouds swag on the deep." — William Blake (bernard snowy), Sunday, 8 May 2011 15:43 (fifteen years ago)

yes, IV drip. hold the world to its word! sorta drunk when i posted that

reggie (qualmsley), Sunday, 8 May 2011 16:37 (fifteen years ago)

"people" is obviously great but SM's vocals are so prominent that I almost think of it as a lost pavement song. same for "blue arrangements", actually, now that I think of it.

I was listening to American Water yesterday, and it struck me then how Pavement-y the whole of that LP is.

nah

"Hungry clouds swag on the deep." — William Blake (bernard snowy), Sunday, 8 May 2011 17:00 (fifteen years ago)

sounds to me like two good friends who respect each other lots jamming together, which i really don't hear in pavement

reggie (qualmsley), Sunday, 8 May 2011 17:50 (fifteen years ago)

five months pass...

'17 doctors couldn't decide / Whether I should be allowed in the GIME!'
Thats why American Water is the best Pavement record.
