The bottle-service electro of "Heartbeat" could have been the 10th-funniest song on 808s & Heartbreak-- somewhere between "The Coldest Winter" and "Love Lockdown"

the reviewer seems like the type of guy who enjoys sitting around with his friends and arguing whether the 36 Chambers was more real than Done by the Forces of Nature

the guy is a douche, no doubt, but that was a great line.

i've seen a lot of impressive guitarist videos, but this is probly the best i've ever seen. fun to watch. and listen to, obviously.

raquetcat · « **Reply #660 on:** December 15, 2011, 06:46:57 PM »

I guess this is a pretty popular song (judging by youtube views) but I just heard it a couple weeks ago, (yes I still learn of new songs from the radio

)

Not a shot at you; more of a "sorry if some of these songs are more mainstream." Whatever, eff you.

radiohead is pretty goddam pretentious. And you really should think about being a nicer person.

pissclams · « **Reply #670 on:** December 20, 2011, 12:17:04 PM »

absolutely hate radiohead

they're the more pretentious version of coldplay. as if it were possible. and it is.

mocat · « **Reply #671 on:** December 20, 2011, 12:36:40 PM »

I'm sure the dudes in Radiohead are extremely pretentious.
What I was saying is that making a list of 34 songs predominantly by artists nobody has ever heard of and calling that the 34 best songs is pretty pretentious.
I believe clams touched on that unless i misunderstood.
How am I not a nice person?

And nobody has ever heard of anybody on your list other than Lil Wayne and Radiohead. I am also not 100% sure you know what pretentious means.

i've heard of Deathcab for Cutie. Only because they had a song on Scrubs once.
