the way SM sings "and in the parking lot is the sedan he bought he never, he never complains when it's hot" in 'grounded' is so brilliant- the emphasis he puts on "is the sedan he bought he never" is really unusual & sounds like he's saying "anybody" or something else... i love songs where the sound of the words is more important or have more impact than the words themselves. or they create a new sound, sounds like made up words. i don't know, it's hard to describe, similar thing happens in the chorus of 'another nail in my heart' by squeeze, most nirvana songs...

Gold soundzzz wld be my second pick
― infinity (∞), Friday, 22 December 2017 19:29 (six years ago) link
grounded has a slight element of socio-political commentary and i think of pavement as pretty apolitical, gold sounds is more pavement-y to me

Grounded. It's a small masterpiece.
― nostormo, Friday, 22 December 2017 21:05 (six years ago) link
Never really saw why Grounded is so well liked.
My default is Give It A Day
― FREEZE! FYI! (dog latin), Friday, 22 December 2017 21:29 (six years ago) link
I like Grounded a lot, but not my fave.
If I were allowed a POT, it would be Box Elder and Trigger Cut.
But as I'm not, Box Elder I think.

"Circa 1762" that was on the Slanted & Enchanted reissue, I guess it was never recorded other than a Peel Session?

but i always complain when it's hot

this could be pavement heresy but i really like 'speak, see remember'
― global tetrahedron, Friday, 22 December 2017 23:12 (six years ago) link
i think the only heresy is picking a spiral song

Didnt mtv in the 90s play hit the plane down for one of their show’s outros? Never watched mtv tho so i have no way to confirm

I usually think people who pick obscure and/or early songs in these circumstances are try-hard bellends but, fuck it: 'Frontwards' ;-)

Friends lifted Rattled by the Rush in those early seasons. I imagine if the band had done something about that they’d have made a fortune in royalties

Lifted? Bit of a reach, really?
― kraudive, Saturday, 23 December 2017 17:56 (six years ago) link
I know it sounds similar but
It’s a pretty blatant rip. Not “hey they kinda sound similar” but “hey this music wouldn’t exist if they hadn’t copied it from the source”
― Evan R, Saturday, 23 December 2017 18:02 (six years ago) link
I just always assumed it was a coincidence
― kraudive, Saturday, 23 December 2017 18:21 (six years ago) link
there is no way this is a coincidence, and "lifted" is definitely not a reach:

Just heard their "killing moon" cover for the first time yesterday. God I love Pavement.

the reference to "playing contract bridge" in Grounded seems like the most Pavement thing
― Joan Digimon (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 25 December 2017 23:14 (six years ago) link
i love the drumming on grounded
it seems very simple -- i don't really know anything about drumming -- but appropriate in a ringo way
― mookieproof, Thursday, 28 December 2017 03:45 (six years ago) link
“Shoot the Singer,” but these are all good choices. I miss Pavement.
