Least Favourite Musical Moment Of The Year

mine has to be that AWFUL snow patrol song, the bit where it goes quiet and he says 'we'll put sufjan stevens on, and play your favourite song'

it's so FUCKING SHIT. 'oooh look i'm so cool i know who sufjan stevens is, i'm so cool and understanding and great, oooh listen to my shit melodyfree so-bland-they're-odourless musical farts forever.'

i can just imagine his smug face as he gets their fans to sing along to it acapella at gigs. VOMIT ACTION.

Razorlight's existance. Particularly that watery toxic non-event that was the first single off their new 'effort'.

snow patrol used to be really good

Like a student Sebadoh. It shocks me to think of them like they are now.

- I still like Snow Patrol
  
  although their new album is a bit dodgy at times.

  - the only song
    
    on the new album i adore is "Set The Fire To The Third Bar" and it's only good because of Martha Wainwright

- which is worse?
  
  the vomitous lyric or the music fan who takes the time to get annoyed about it?

  - the vomitous lyric
    
    is FAR worse.

    They're both undesireable to varying degrees. Worse still is the self-righteous type who chooses to criticize those who criticize; a most heinous hypocrisy of the kind up with I will not put.

  - I can't remember the song particularly well
    
    But I'm fairly sure that he pronounces it wrong, too.

    - Pronounces "Sufjan" wrong, that is
      
      PocketMouse @PocketMouse | 22 Aug '06, 10:37 | X
  - god
    
    is that really one of the lyrics? urgh
    
    roastthemonaspit | 22 Aug '06, 10:51 | X
    - mmhm
      
      "Put Sufjan Stevens on
      and we'll play your favorite song
      "Chicago" bursts to life
      and your sweet smile remembers you"
      
      he pronounces it pretty much correctly.
      soothyarn.

      - I hear "suf"
        
        But then I'm very picky when it comes to pronounciations.
        
        PocketMouse @Jamie_Summers | 22 Aug '06, 11:26 | X
        
        its on the edge of it
        
        but its basically right. far better than some attempts i've heard. anyway the point isn't really the pronunciation, more the absolute horror of the lyrics.
        
        Jamie_Summers @PocketMouse | 22 Aug '06, 11:34 | X
        
        The song is here if anyone hasn't heard it

        I pronounce it
        
        Suff-Jan (like the start of January).
        
        How annoyed are you?
        
        kovacs @PocketMouse | 22 Aug '06, 12:34 | X
        
        very.
