The Times Tweedy interview


Recommended Posts

Stwike him centuwion! Vewy Woughly!

 

Sorry, I didn't listen to that sort of music when I was 11, and I still do not now. I know they were/are popular the world over - but to me it is just over produced pop music. Keith Richards had some good things say about this sort of thing in the RS anniversary issue.

I meant stwike Tweedy. Abba are/were shit, now and then. No ironic, post modern "they were pure pop" or anything like that. They sucked balls and forever it shall be.

Its not ironic to love Dancing Queen. Its excellent. About a billion times better than Casino Queen.

I wonder if Robbie Fulks taught him dancing queen? Possibly at a Letters to Santa show?

 

First time I heard Robbie play 'Dancing Queen' was the NYE 1999 show at the end of his "15 minute history of country music" thing, right @ Midnight.

Glorious at the time.

 

Here's Robbie doing it on NPR :

Just noticed it says "Sky Blue Sky is released by Nonesuch on Monday." I sure hope it's released to me on Monday. The anticipation is killing me....but that's half of the fun, right?

 

P.S. I'm down with ABBA. Dancing Queen is a fine, fine song (just ask my preschooler!) but Casino Queen is pretty great....and I'm not afraid to get caught singing loudly along with Casino Queen at a stoplight.

if wilco becomes one of the most popular bands in the U.S. anytime soon, im out.

It totally sucks when an album I love, like YHF, instantly morphs into bad music the second other people start enjoying it.
