Re: Music Chit-Chat Thread Track 01: The Rumours of My Virtue They Moved Her Not At All

I dunno, I'd never really heard it before mine.

Although I really do hope you guys detected a minor hint of sarcasm in that statement? Of course that's a silly accusation.

I still have yet to hear a song that trumps my favorite though. I mean, personal preference and whatnot, but nothing's come even close. Really, no song has the effect of this one. Guess that's just me though.

Paste magazine has released their list of the 50 Best Albums of the Decade. Take a look, it is a pretty solid one.

Re: Music Chit-Chat Thread Track 01: The Rumours of My Virtue They Moved Her Not At All

In other news, iTunes won't recognize my iPod for some random reason. I don't feel this is significant enough for a thread in the tech section (plus it'll only generate rants about how iTunes sucks), and it's really messing with my last.fm. It won't scrobble my iPod because iTunes doesn't notice it! GRAIECH!@E

Elephant at number 6? It's by far the Stripe's most interesting album, but it's certainly not "Top 50 of the Decade" material, if you ask me.

Well, I like White Blood Cells better than Elephant, and I'd rank that pretty high (I think, we'll have to find out later).

Reading the blurb that goes along with it, I think they maybe just wanted to recognize Jack White's musical contributions and impact on the decade, and maybe that happened to be the editor's favourite album or something.

Awwww that blows man. My hard drive crashed a few years ago and I just about put a gun in my mouth because I thought I had lost all my music. Then I remembered that I had it all backed up on my mp3 player and I could copy it off of that. So I only lost a few albums I hadn't added yet.

Really sucks, though, I feel for you.

Pretty interesting to compare that list to this one, especially given the amount of albums that didn't even make the cut on the long list being ranked so high on the shorter. Also, White Blood Cells is on top here, my second-least favorite of all White Stripes albums, even though I owned it first.

Re: Music Chit-Chat Thread Track 01: The Rumours of My Virtue They Moved Her Not At All

Still, an interesting amount of overlap.

Pitchfork's version also has a lot of overlapping albums in the top 50 (they do a total of 200), with White Blood Cells in at #12.

Right, so this was because Forte says he doesn't like himself. I want him to like himself a bit more.

GODNEY SPEARS is the most successful/popular artist of any medium of the decade, and yet she's been snubbed by all of the cited lists.

Whatever.

Thanks, I appreciate the symphathy! Still, there is a bit of silver lining, I think rebuilding my library will give me a chance to listen to all the albums I have that I haven't touched in years (I'm looking at you The Smiths!). I think I'm gonna buy CDs pretty much exclusively from now on as well, I used to only buy them every now and then but I've gained a new appreciation for them : (.

Let's see how far down we can go.

Icky Thump > Elephant > De Stijl > The White Stripes > White Blood Cells > Get Behind Me Satan

Re: Music Chit-Chat Thread Track 01: The Rumours of My Virtue They Moved Her Not At All

Fun Fact: When I was in grade 8 four of my classmates performed "Brain Stew" at the end of what was passing as the school play that year. One of those people is now in The Diverse Attraction and has done some promo photos for some pretty well-known bands. One of them was on that spin-off of The Hills, The City as one of the main cast member's boyfriend (and apparently is still a musician). One of them is one half of Crystal Castles. The forth isn't doing anything.

Re: Music Chit-Chat Thread Track 01: The Rumours of My Virtue They Moved Her Not At All

So the White Stripes (finally) get three songs in Rock Band, and I'm pretty happy with the ones they chose.

Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground, Icky Thump, and probably my favorite song by them ever, Girl, You Have No Faith In Medicine.

The 'wooo!' that opens "Medicine" is so so awesome.

But "Dead Leaves" is still my favourite.
