The Jayhawks (including Louris, Olson, and related)
uncool2pillow replied to Analogman's topic in Someone Else's Song
The Current is previewing a new track. It's fantastic! http://minnesota.publicradio.org/collections/special/columns/music_blog/archive/2011/06/debut_the_jayha.shtml -
This is sad

Loved the v-roys, I have Scott's 1st 2 solo albums and then sort of lost track. This bit was totally awesome.

Offensive jokes are, IMO, fine if they're funny. The have to be funnier than they are offensive. I'm glad a gay found that joke funny. I did not. Having said that, if I were a moderator, I wouldn't have deleted it.

Most Beautiful Songs that Break Your Heart
uncool2pillow replied to sgtpepper64's topic in Someone Else's Song
Beautiful, beautiful song. I wish the v-roys had stayed together. Just Add Ice is a gem. I used to get emails from Miller, but he never seems to leave the south these days, so I gave it up. -

70 tomorrow!!! Or today where Froggie is.

Harmon led a life away from the spotlight for the past 35+ years. He's beloved in Minnesota, but not nationwide. "Macho Man" did all he could to maximize his national exposure beyond his prime. Killebrew was 74, Savage still in his 50s. I am much sadder about Killebrew's death because I've been a Twins fan since childhood (around the time he retired), but I understand why most people are more shocked and/or saddened by Savage's death.

I love that picture except its setting. RIP Harmon. Fuck the Yankees.

Talent Show is one of my favorite 'mats song. Achin' to be was ahead of it's time. I'll Be You is Good. Most of the rest is pretty lame, so I'd never buy it on vinyl, even if I was a vinyl collector.

How about one about COOL covers?

Harmon Killebrew enters hospice care This fills me with great sadness. When Kirby died, I bawled. Didn't bawl for this, but did get teary and do every time I think about it.

I like it when Bruce doesn't take himself so seriously. That was brilliant and funny as hell. -
Covers that make you want to commit a capital crime

I always liked that Beck/Stewart version. I think it's the first I remember hearing. -

The oddest, most incongruous covers that you can think of
uncool2pillow replied to PopTodd's topic in Someone Else's Song
As a middle school teacher, let me tell you, there are plenty of Nirvana fans out there who have no idea what context the music belongs in. Pretty much anything made before 2000 is "classic rock" to them, which makes sense considering they were born around 1997. But still, to them The Beatles = Kiss = Van Halen = Nirvana. Kids going to a Miley Cyrus concert may hear that and think, "Hey, I heard that on my dad's radio station once, cool!" But the kids who stay into it will because they heard it on their dad's radio station, brother's iPod, or friend's house, not because Miley sang it. Sh -

It might fit the dictionary definition for odd and incongruous, but so does an outfit with plaid and stripes. This was beyond odd and incongruous. -

One wonders if she fully appreciates the irony. She, like Debbie Gibson, has her own perfume. -

Do your siblings have the same musical taste as you?
uncool2pillow replied to remphish1's topic in Someone Else's Song
I follow my older brother like a lapdog when it comes to music. EXCEPT, I take credit for turning him on to Wilco. In the late 90s, we were both frustrated with most of the rock scene. He really got into jazz, and I followed. Then he got really deep into classical, esp. opera. I learned a lot from him, but opera requires a big investment of time and focus to really get into. It was around that time I got him into Wilco. I'd bought him Being There when it first came out. He liked it, but didn't love it. Then came YHF and it blew him away. We went to residency night #2 together. Anyh
