I LIKE ABBA, DAMMIT
(also mods that is not a pirated music)
edit: well it may not work because of mysterious reasons
Fuck them. They ruined an awesome thing.
Satans..... hints.....
oh god dammit
whenever we are on a long drive late at night, especially back from a party or a noisy concert, I either put on Sleep by Godspeed! You Black Emperor or The Earth is Not A Cold Dead Place
it not only puts us all to sleep, but it is just the most fantastic music for post-loudness late-night driving. Fantastic is an understatement. It is serendipitous. It is perfection on earth. It is musical ambrosia.
I feel more strongly about how awesome Explosions is for this than I do about most things
what is this gayness?

Except everyone will still hate you
also explosions in the sky yes
That one football movie didn't even know what a prize it got
anyone else like Thursday?
can it be about
i am pretty sure i know what it is just from the title though and i was obsessed with that shit a while back too
I like then in that one Bowie song.
Unless he's really going to butcher them.
ABBA are cool.
Swedes are cool.
I'm surprised more Swedish acts haven't broken into the mainstream in the US. There are so many amazing Swedish acts right now (The Knife; Jens Lekman; Peter, Bjorn, and John; a shitload of others I've suddenly forgotten; and all of their side-projects) and most of them make nostalgic 60s-style AM pop music.
I would just sing waterloo all the time
When I hear that song I get transported back to the 7 hour bus ride and amazing week I spent with one of my ex's. I love that song more than just about any other song ever.
This is what I think when you say punk
is rush progrock
I like rush
also abba
I'm not gonna lie it was pretty great
No, it's just
let's say you leave a party, and it's 1 AM, and you're in a full car of people
there's like a good ten or fifteen minutes of chatter about the party and how crazy it was or whatever, but then people start to shut up and think about themselves for the rest of the 45 minutes home
you put on Explosions in the Sky and you're driving along, headlights illuminating boughs on the side of the road, the dotted line separating the lanes beating away below you
no one is falling asleep but no one talks, everyone is leaning against their door, thinking about shit as Your Hand in Mine plays, hanging out in the company of friends and just relaxing as you beat away the miles back to your own bed
holy shit
Explosions has been directly responsible for some of the most beautiful moments in my life
I don't hate them but I can't say I'd go out of my way to listen to them
yes that is exactly what i thought it was.
My dad has been alternating between ABBA Gold and the cast soundtrack for the last week. Sometimes he sings along.
He also is a devoted fan of Desperate Housewives, and buys every Baz Lurhman movie on DVD, even though he doesn't buy anything else on DVD.
I think my dad might be a secret gay.
One of their albums is called Walking Cloud and Deep Red Sky, Flag Fluttered and Sun Shined, what
Not much of a secret now.
