the first song reminded me of Editors, and the second one is somehow even worse

Seriously fucking lame

Which album are you listening to?

evilhairyhamster | 15 Dec '07, 00:20 | X
- bbc2.
  
  howmuchivelied @evilhairyhamster | 15 Dec '07, 00:22 | X
- watching Jools
  
  and they appalled me
  
  douchebag @evilhairyhamster | 15 Dec '07, 00:22 | X
  - bollocks I missed it
    
    And Beirut was on. But did they play The Funeral or The Great Salt Lake? They're usually the songs everyone likes.
    
    evilhairyhamster @douchebag | 15 Dec '07, 00:27 | X
Editors? Really?

They remind me of My Morning Jacket, only not as good.

- it had a similiar grooveless indie chug
  
  with lots of grinding chords in a "powerful" fashion
  
  douchebag @JohnM | 15 Dec '07, 00:26 | X
pretty good

i like his voice

douchebag @colonel_cumbersome | 15 Dec '07, 00:27 | X
- i didn't know this was on.
  
  bugger.
  
  do they repeat it?

The real question from tonight

Why is Mutya Buena wearing Patsy Palmer's hair?

simon_t | 15 Dec '07, 00:34 | X
.

My observations:

The Ting Tings = what?
Gabriella Cilmi = shite
Mutya Buena = shite
Beirut = good
Bands of Horses = not bad, this being the first time I've heard them

Also, Why isn't KT Tunstall called Katie Tunstall?

  Oh, wikipedia says: "Tunstall spells her first name KT (as opposed to Katie) to differentiate herself from fellow singer Katie Melua."
  
  Great.

  - Glad she sorted out that potentially tricky dilemma for us
    
    evilhairyhamster @petetheweed | 15 Dec '07, 00:38 | X
- that finger-picked guitarist guy was pretty damn good
  
  i liked how his singing seemed out of sync with his playing, but it all just sort of fitted
  
  douchebag @petetheweed | 15 Dec '07, 00:40 | X
  - What was his name again?
    
    He was the best thing on the whole show! Although Beirut were pretty good too.
    
    badmanreturns @douchebag | 15 Dec '07, 00:48 | X
    - Martin Simpson
      
      never heard of him before, but not the most memorable name (i had to check just then, having retained the memory for approximately 3 seconds)
      
      douchebag @badmanreturns | 15 Dec '07, 00:56 | X
i wasn't aware she was a mother?

i didn't know she was 32 either. hmm.

howmuchivelied @colonel_cumbersome | 15 Dec '07, 00:43 | X
- i thought she was older than that.
  
  she's a pretty lady though.
  
  -gen- @howmuchivelied | 15 Dec '07, 01:48 | X
my observations of KT Tunstall

her music is ok in a middle of the road pop context.

im not convinced a 'singer/songwriter' like her would have been taken seriously a few years ago (i.e. as a female)

those glasses are slightly too big

she is very sexy

that last song sounds like thats entertainment by the jam

theseabass | 15 Dec '07, 00:44 | X
- also
  
  regarding the thread, on hearing them for the first time, i found band of horses as dissapointing as you. Beruit's first song was very good
  
  theseabass @theseabass | 15 Dec '07, 00:47 | X
Editors? eh?
