Mal ,'Trash'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
I don't know why I'm so obsessed with defending Amanda Palmer. I don't even particularly like her music. But...
If she had instead opined, "Saying that playing 'Hallelujah' is a cliché is as ridiculous as saying that breathing is a cliché", would that have been clearer? because that, I think, was her point.
Lisa's point (I think, but well, it's my point, too, now) was that playing Hallelujah could conceivably be a cliche, but breathing could not.
Yes, this was my point!
According to Amanda Palmer, it could not conceivably be one. That is her point.
I understand this but how don't see how she could say playing that song could not be considered a cliche. Although, like I said, I could understand her saying "fuck it, it's a cliche but we love the song and are going to play it anyway."

Because ridiculous but friendly arguments are fun!

Hey! I agree with lisah!

YES!!!
Sorry, I just made a truth table and confirmed my logic.
CURSES! Foiled again.
Don't mess with an Actuary, dude.
You win this round, but I'll get you next time! Now, excuse me, but I'm off to wax and twirl my moustache a bit.

Time for Corwood to change his moniker to "Al Sweringen".
Or possibly "Daniel Plainview"
Or "Bill the butcher"
