FTFY.

Bob wrote a bunch of great songs, but the only ones that seem great are the ones he wrote for other performers. He should have stayed a songwriter and he could have been the Stock Waterman Aitken of his day instead of a man with a voice like an un-oiled barn hinge made out of dead skunks.

Fuckinell mate, you a Crowded House fan or something?

Yep! What’s wrong with that? At least I can bear to listen to it, unlike motherfucker Nick Cave and ACDC!

Because I’m feeling moderately mischievous, flute for @OtherMichael, French prog for @anon50609448, and Christian Vander’s drumming for @japhroaig, all in one package. It’s also got Kobaïan (which is to say nonsense) lyrics for @popobawa4u, but I think that would be considered a virtue in this case. :wink:

But would you say that the most common color scheme is black-red-and-white?

Lou Reed just sucked - like, in all ways. A talentless primadonna.

Ah, I’ve thought of a genuinely unpopular opinion I have:
Joan of Arc is the better successor to Cap’n Jazz rather than the Promise Ring

A sample of the trucking country, a variant on Willie Nelson’s “City of New Orleans”, with a matching video track.

I like Steely Dan.

But that’s just your opinion. My opinion that you don’t like Steely Dan - that no one does - is still perfect valid, right?

Since you bring it up, Arrested Development is clever but not actually funny.

U.S. Government likes Steely Dan. Or at least their guitar player.

I think when someone says they like Steely Dan, I am just going to assume that they are referring to the porn star (I’m going way out on a limb here and assuming there is a porn star named “Steely Dan”).

Ugh, yeah, that one is impossible to defend. Shame on you for remembering it :smiley:

You’re close, the band was named after the fictional prize-winning dildo in Naked Lunch.
