Re: Top 25 Songs of 2023
Leetsu, your #1 wasn't my favourite song from your list, not by a long shot. It was fun, trippy psych rock that was a little too nostalgic for me. But your list in total was great. A few crossovers either in song or band (Yard Act, Shame), a few I knew already and love (Deeper, Mhaol), and a few sur...

Re: Rate That Movie Part IV: Movies Never Sleep
That too!
But Zone is an unconventional film, an experience as opposed to a story, quite like the kind of films you see in art galleries. So I get why it's not for everyone

Re: Top 25 Songs of 2023
John, while I generally am happy to hear a Sparks, I wasn't hugely blown away by your #1. I much preferred the drilling synth of the title track. Still, at least it wasn't another Margo track. I did enjoy your list in total, though, and it actually felt like one of your best. Maybe that's because yo...

Re: Rate That Movie Part IV: Movies Never Sleep
Funnily I watched All of Us Strangers yesterday, and couldn't disagree with you more. It's an incredible piece of cinema, with amazing performances, and a unique spin on dealing with past trauma in order to become a better person. I don't see it as a ghost story, that reduces it to something more ex...

Re: Top 25 Songs of 2023
I'll slot Chien's #1 on Feb 3rd and mine on the 4th. #2 John: Cute and sweet song, and the video helped immensely. Leetsu: I kind of see why this was a b-side (didn't know they exist anymore) and not on the album. It was an okay dose of 90s style indie rock. Tranny: A very odd choice for a favourite...

SONG #2 John David Wax Museum: Best Lover "Never had a chance to see If this love existed Never had a chance for things To get ugly and twisted Held on to the fantasy Of what could have been" That's an interesting lyric coming from a band whose core members are a husband and wife duo who, based on ...

Re: Top 25 Songs of 2023
4 and 3 John: Love that Sparks song, especially the synth sound. It's almost, dare I say it, post-punk. As for the lyrics, I quite enjoy their ability to find something very simple and observant and repeat it until it burrows into your brain. And now as I pay attention as I stroll past London's cafe...

SONG #4 John Sparks: The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte You know you're on a hot streak when Cate Blanchett agrees to be the dancing girl in your music video. She even showed up in the same outfit when Sparks played Glastonbury last year. Lyrically, this is hardly Ron Mael's best effort, but that synt...

Re: Top 25 Songs of 2023
6+5 John: Two very pleasant songs that I'll never remember, even if I heard them again. Gaby Morena has the edge over the other one due to her vocals. Leetsu: One track I love that almost made my list, and one I love that did. Good work! Tranny: Mutoid Man was not my style. The QUOTSA track was good...

Things have changed You have changed You've been here now more than 20 years Don't go home" This might be the most personally relatable song I heard in 2023, my fir...

SONG #6 John Gaby Moreno: Fronteras I regret not being able to see Gaby Moreno open for Neko Case in Vancouver shortly before I left. Gaby has usurped Neko as my favourite singer working today, and my biggest musical crush, so having them both on the same bill would have been epic. http://www.youtu...
