re: Son v. Wolf, i hear that and it pains me to say, Son said it first, Son said it best

i will now atone for my sins by drinkin' gasoline (instead of wine spo-dee-o-dee)

In all fairness, I wasn’t going for a old vs new… I was listening to spoonful and was like.. what is that.. that is something other… I’m horrible that way and piss my sister (the dj) off all the time because I like to point out things derived from things… also I found it amusing because I am pretty sure Wolf played with as a 2nd guitarist for House early in his career :)*

On the other hand as for the blue clown posted earlier :)*

I partially blame him for killing rockandroll’s last dregs of vitality

less annoying than my wife, who has a habit of pointing out similarities between songs (almost always entirely due to similarities in the melodic rhythm) and usually ends up claiming that the original ripped off the latecomer :lol:

to be fair though, she pretty early on figured out it's like nails on a chalkboard to me, and ever since has basically done it just to yank my crank - you'd think i was her little brother or something....

ok, so this goes against what i was trying to do in posting to this thread (pomposity alert), but i actually really enjoyed this rendition of Carlos Paredes' fucking awesome Canção Verdes Anos, as played by Jemaine from Flight of the Conchords, apparently :lol:
