Actually...

Henrik had mentioned my obvious one.

Fun thread- we all have our mega-likes (or dislikes in some cases), don't we?

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

Good thread idea. I'll add a few

11. Jackson does not like Bob Marley, Simon & Garfunkel, or Bruce Springsteen (except "Thunder Road" and "Born to Run," I might add).
12. Sonofsamiam loves jazz, soul, rap, and pretty much any kind of black music you can think of
13. Romain hates Bob Dylan
14. Moonbeam loves Prince (might be the most obvious one on the whole board)
15. Tim E loves a certain kind of indie pop and absolutely hates the rest of it

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

We could have an entire list just for Moonbeam.

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

Jackson
Good thread idea. I'll add a few

bonus cut:

16. but Jackson does like jazzzz (a LOT)
17. Sonofsamiam loves jazz, soul, rap, and pretty much any kind of black music you can think of (as long as there are lots of strings and harps in it)

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

The idea that Moonbeam is anyone's puppet is laughable... although if anyone is enough of an inscrutably evil genius to pull it off, it's nj.

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

nj
i just made fun of myself...

step 1: MB actually likes the previous records of AF, stupid lil nj clearly doesn't
step 2: MB thinks The Suburbs is underwhelming, nj greedily agrees with him
step 3: chat by chat, stupid lil greedy nj proceeds to convince MB that The Suburbs is taah worst album evvvaaaa

hence:
you're quoting all of these MB bash posts and not one single bit of mine... and whyyyyyy....?


that's why

echoing some pathetic super villain laughter all along the night rite now..


Fair enough. I should really just chill the out. My apologies, nj. Long day + feeling a bit lost in translation with you sometimes.

I don't think I've ever said that, but you are mostly right. Nice observation.

And yes, we miss damosuzuki. There's somebody else I miss but I can't remember his username, it's been a couple years.

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list



This thread is awesome! On the topic of The Suburbs, I actually think Anthony did say something along the lines of "we get it already, Moonbeam".

It seems like I have the easiest taste to define here on AMF. I must shout my opinions really loudly. Sorry about that!

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

Moonbeam cannot stand the fucking Beatles

Post of the century!

You're not wrong, though, Dan M.

Here's my review of the album, which I wrote at work once I arrived after hearing it for the first time. Subsequent listens (and conversations!) did make me downgrade my rating, but I really was disappointed by it moreso than any other album I can remember, to the point where it actually has made me question my regard for the first 2 albums.

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

I like this thread! I hope no one thinks it is too offensive. I think the heart is in the right place in all these posts.

Should I be proud that I haven't been mentioned yet? Or ashamed because no one dares to?

A couple more observations:
Tim E hates Tom Waits, Pavement and Depeche Mode.
Also, JR lives to tell us about...who's that girl?

Heh.

No, actually, I would never say that about someone who doesn't like R.E.M. - I have friends whose opinions are otherwise mostly sound who don't like them.

Now, anyone who doesn't like Pixies? Taliban.

nj, thanks for simultaneously confirming my fears that I've become far too easy to peg...but also showing that everyone else is, too. I might move Bread and DeBarge into my top ten artists just to confuse people now.

Oh, and I also miss Anthony, damosuzuki, Paul, and others whose names elude me right now.

Seriously, I wouldn't listen to the Pixies everyday or every week, but I recognize they're a great band. They created a very special universe of their own.

NOOOOO!!!!!

I'm still sitting at 2,998. I had presumed Warm Thoughts would be part of Hip-O Select's next solo Smokey Robinson release, but they've backtracked for his earlier live album Smokin' instead. I assume WT will be issued - undoubtedly as a twofer with Being With You, a bubbling-under album at AM - sometime before the end of 2011. At which point I will resume my search for Rue de Siam.

Sorry, didn't mean to go off-topic on the thread, but since it was brought up I figured I'd update.

Wonderful thread!

Although I secretly hope I am not mentioned here because my taste it too complex to pin down (right...), I know I am not mentioned because I haven't been around for too long (bit more than a year) and I haven't participated in an All-time best album poll yet (which I hope will change soon).

Hall of Acclaim was arguably the greatest though, and the ridiculously high standard schleuse set with his attention to detail, as well as the amount of time he put int it, are probably part of the reason that it hasn't been redone.

Thanks. The Hall of Acclaim was my favorite, too--even though (or maybe because) it took the largest amount of bookkeeping. I also have very fond memories of bracketology, which was sprung on an unsuspecting Forum almost exactly five years ago.

I look back on those with some amazement at how well they went, and a very large part of that comes from the massive collective musical knowledge of the people who played along.

I haven't really had an idea that revved me up into full mad scientist mode since the HOA, and anyway, I no longer have that kinda time. But sometimes I wonder...I've never really done anything with the album list...

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

Oh, and in my previous post, I was remiss in not giving props to Matt Schroeder and listyguy for reviving bracketology and Survivor, respectively.

I should apologize to listyguy for not getting involved in Survivor II. I still have very ambivalent feelings about the original. But I see it's still going on...maybe I'll check out that thread.

-Nick's lists are coincidentally (and unwittingly) all equal to the ones in AM rank.


hahahaha, this is true (somewhat). After one of the polls, somebody went along and calculated whose rankings were the most similar to the AM rank and the closest to the average of the AM voters in the poll. I won both. It's not that I have a obsession to agree with critics though, there's many songs/albums I feel need much, much more acclaim (Summerteeth!!!) and many albums that really leave me scratching my head as to why they're acclaimed. However, with 5 of my top 10 albums in the AM top 10 albums, and 6 of my top 10 artists in the AM top 10 artists, it's fair to say my taste is the closest to the AM lists. And I'm perfectly fine with that.

I'd be happy to take three weeks to run the 2009, 2010 and 2011 elections. However, I can't do it yet, since the acclaimed song list only goes up through 2007. Next site update, I promise (and remind me if I forget!).

Goes to show how much I dislike most of them.

I used the #1000 to indicate they're really near the bottom of my artist list, but I see now that 196-200 would probably have been better since I limited myself to the top 200 on AM. Actual rankings of those five artists would be more like 400, 1000, 1000, 2000 and 3000. Probably.

Re: Actually...

Maybe we can make a new thread with top 10 (or 5 or 3) and bottom 10 for each of us for knowing who is the most acclaimed and most hated artists in AM forum.
With al the statistician here, maybe it's simple to make a rule for this ?

Once again, nj is incomprehensible by me...but one day...one day...I understand his words !

Re: Actually...

Henrik
Back to the subject...

JR always start his sentences in the subject line.


great pick/observation. but then again JR lacks the persistence in telling everyone else to do like him. so...

nj likes posting about how he is too cool to post in this forum


back in 2006, we once shared a fine little unerring word for this phenomena... i think it was "fatigue". it was so spot on that i began to hate it.. just for the reason it became so hugely popular in here

Re: Actually...

Everybody pretends nj is a girl when...

1) He already posted that he is male.
2) His FB profile is obviously male.
3) I don't think a single girl on earth has heard of half the artists he likes.

Re: Actually...

thanks, jackson.

edit: 4) still wondering if there is any single female out there on planeto earth who has ever made it to the Acclaimed Music Forum anyway (and exceptions like the REGs WAGs [Tracy, realjade, Sophie, Rune's next top model bride etc.] don't really count...)

second edit: but did they get it...?

Re: Actually...

I will admit I though NJ was a woman for a while...

Re: Actually...

speaking of child hoods... i really, really wish that Connelly and Ludo were one and the same...

Re: Actually...

Up until two minutes ago I still thought Netjade was female and I'm friends with him on Facebook. You had a profile pic forever which I'm now assuming is a girlfriend and I just always assumed that was you.

doesn't the bottom of my coffee cup spit any spoilers anymore? kobayashi sounds legit enough, but then..a gin..nahhh, it just seems weird that no one seems to miss our good ole token Dane anymore..

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

Yeah he's a good poster but he still checks once in a blue moon. Plus, I'm friends with him on Facebook so I almost forgot he doesn't post much anymore.

Re: so be it... the ultimate AMF "Yeah, thanks, we get it" list

jamen.

i guess that was my one and only dudette for a lifetime also known as 'realjade' in some circuleses..

i hate it when drunk.ass morons call us siblings, because that's what i did to post-soviets back in 1991. the very minute they tried to re-animate effing beehive virgin megastore customer lines was the very sole moment i eventually accepted that we most possibly ARE all about the same..

Re: Actually...

Somebody told me nj was female when I was polling people's nationalities during the 00's film game.

There's no reason a female can't have nj's taste, but I guess a female would be more diplomatic about it.

30. HRS loves Joanna Newsom (and other female singers)
29. Stephan loves compiling polls in one thread
28. Moonbeam uses the word “adore” more than any man should
27. nj doesn't like The Arcade Fire
26. Romain doesn’t understand nj (Something to do with a language barrier)
25. STEFAN LOVES CAPSLOCK
24. Moonbeam doesn't like The Beatles
23. Mindrocker can’t help himself (No, we don’t need to know what your 184th favorite song of 2001 is)

11. Oh yeah, Moonbeam hates the Beatles
10. Sonofsamiam loves any music that is made by musicians of African descent. (We’re all of African descent, but some more recently than others)
9. Nicolas is French, and as a citizen of that country is required to express his love of Jacques Brel (This is a two-fer)
8. nj is keeping Gramscian postmodern critique of capitalist hegemony alive through a ludic praxis of difference. Hey, somebody has to.
7. Henry can’t stand the Velvet Underground (Something to do with their droning sound)
6. Henrik likes math (No AM without this fact)
5. Moonbeam loves prince to the point of making his AM handle a reference to an obscure Prince song
