Honourable mentions for Distopian Dream Girl also


My stepfather looks just like David Bowie,
but he hates David Bowie
I think Bowie's cool.
I think Lodger rules
My stepdad's a fool!"

yeah, it does alright.

the last song Stab is my favourite on that LP; plus the fake ads for their next record.

 

[coast to coast]

Doesn't bring back memories of 95 for me as I was only twelve, but it does just make you nostalgic, regardless of whether the thing is real or not. Its that kind of song.

 

[Nate Champion]

Yes.

 

[Rogue]

Yes.

What he said.

 

[Charlie Bucket]

plus the fake ads for their next record.

they freaked me out!!

i was talking with a mate about built to spill the other day...i then get a text this morning saying "track 3 on perfect from now on 3.20 mins of intro. genius"

it made me smile

'perfect from now on' is one of my favourite albums..definitely a desert island essential.

That was D, wasn't it?

it sure was...

we debated the burning "whats the best built to spill album" issue over some pints the other day. he's more of a keep it like a secret fan. it appeals to his pop sensibilities more than the epicness of perfect from now on.

In fairness, he's a bit of a girl, so I'm not surprised he prefers the poppier side of Built to Spill. He also likes stuff like Bros and Ace of Base.

'Kicked it in the sun' kicking in after 3 and a half minutes. Fuck, yes.

At the end 'i wanna see movies of my dreams' part, for some reason (in my head) i always think he's saying -

'i wanna see boobies in my dreams'

Looks to be still open. Perfect From Now On is winning.
Wish those 'fake ad for new LP songs' became reality. They sounded great.
