Buffistas

You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan

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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Damn! That was a lot of posts!

I'm curious to hear what Jilli thinks about Dracula: Pages from a Virgin's Diary.

Heard about the Decemberists the other day and very cool for the Petra Haden association. The only a capella Who Sell Out song I've heard is "Armenia City In The Sky," which is bad-freakin-ass.

I will post a review the day after it turns up in my mailbox.

Yes, and I didn't kill ANY cow-orkers, which I think shows real restraint on my part.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Okay, question: chatty!co-worker, who is a music snob and trends toward all things BritPop, told me that Frou Frou is "girlie" music.

I called bullshit and told him it was electronica-esque, which is not what comes to mind when *I* think of "girlie" music.

Opinions?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Girlie" music has lyrics about flowers and horses and unicorns.

Or not.

Maybe shopping is mentioned....

Up with the sun

I only know "Beauty in the Breakdown," but I can see why that song wuld be considered "girly" (for certain values of girly). It has soft, fuzzy edges and a female vocalist, and there's nothing to play air guitar to. It's not macho music, anyhow.

But I don't think "girlie" should be an insult.

As a comparison, he cites Sarah McLachli-howeveryouspellit as "girlie." And I just wouldn't put Frou Frou in the same category as Sarah Mc.

I agree with you. I think more electronica/trip-hop with Frou Frou, not Sarah McLachlan. Is Azure Ray girlie? Portishead? Massive Attack's "Teardrop"?

So, the Pet Shop Boys, then.
