Re: Favorite Albums and Songs of 2008

Dan M


Coldplay have only lost their spark since 2005 with X&Y (I liked Parachutes and A Rush of Blood...)


I agree with your assessment of "X&Y" which is a truly awful album, but I love "Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends". I thought it was the birth of a new Coldplay after the dreadful "X&Y". However, I have mixed feelings about their new album. I've only heard it once, and there are some songs I like, and some I don't.

Are people not listening to Erykah Badu for some reason, or is it some kind of anti-R&B sentiment?
Her voice drives me nuts.
Her voice is not as bad as it is on her first albums, but it's still not exactly a selling point.

So yeah, as you can probably gather form that, I got around to listening to the album and I'm not sure the concept got across at all. I still find it a rather meandering mess with particularly Me and My People being at least half useless. "My people, my people, my people, my people, my people, my people, my people, repeat". We get it. Some great moments, sure, but they can be condensed into two or three songs max. I can appreciate its variety, but it also exacerbates its meanderingness problem. 6/10.

Coldplay... I never heard a group with such a lack of personality


Christ, that's a bit extreme. I guess that means you never listen to mainstream radio - there are plenty of dullards on there (personally I try to avoid mainstream radio like the plague).

Coldplay have only lost their spark since 2005 with X&Y (I liked Parachutes and A Rush of Blood...) Even less bubbly in personality are the bands who imitate Colplay - the Coldplay-wannabes - like Snow Patrol and freakin' Embrace (who have thankfully had the decency to split up).

Talking of British bands, how was your weekend in London with all those exotic Brits, nicolas?


The only time I hear mainstream radio is at my local grocery store, but I can imagine there's worse than Coldplay : Coldplay clones; but that's beyond all comprehension for me

And the weekend in the UK was great, pretty "family circle". We often go there to see a cousin near Sutton who's married to a very Exotic Brit who loves spreading Marmite on his toasts in the morning and seems to be secretly delighted by the turbulence in the Euro zone .My kids "trick or treated", I bought everything I like in the UK : books, vinegar crisps, cereals, tea, lemon curd (thanks Honorio), and saw magnificent colors of autumn in the parks (along with squirrels and foxes), special mention to Wisley gardens in Surrey. Nothing I like more than English parks and gardens ! And my cousins complained about the Scottish accent, saying it's the worse of all the UK !!

I really like Scottish accents (and the Scottish people for that matter) but the Glasgow accent/dialect can be notoriously difficult to understand. When I moved to Glasgow it took me a few months to get used to it. Of course, these things work both ways - if I don't speak slowly the Glaswegians don't understand my South African accent. But it's all OK now. I no longer walk out of my local bakery with crusty bread instead of the tomato and herb sticks I asked for because the baker and I couldn't understand each other.

(Sorry for this digression into something that's not music-related.)

Re: Favorite Albums and Songs of 2008

MARMITE

You either love it, or you're not a human being.

And also I love the scottish accent. And the Welsh. And the Irish. Time to get rid of the Scouse and the Geordie accent and basically all of north England and I'll be happy!

Re: Favorite Albums and Songs of 2008

So you got addicted to lemon curd too?


Last time I went to Scotland, a man from the airport crew gave us a few instructions but I didn't understand a single word. I asked an American couple who were by my side what he just told us. But they didn't understand a single word too!!
Glad you enjoyed your trip, Nic

I like it but the junkie's Sophie.

About the Scottish accent, I have never talked to a Scott so i don't know, but My cousin tells me she has a Scotttish friend and that sometimes she can't understand what he's saying ...
I generally understand the Americans better than the Brits (except maybe Texans : I saw No Country For Old Men in English and couldn't understand the Texan cops)

No Mindrocker list this month ?

Sorry Nicolas, due to lack of time indeed no list this month. I will try to provide one for the 2009 poll.

Now you're finally beginning to make sense.

Re: Favorite Albums and Songs of 2008

This is the complete list of songs in alphabetical order, I’ve included also the songs that received votes but were not eligible because they were not released in 2008 (see the year of release in bold letters and the incorrect ones at the end). Petri, I don’t know but probably if you remove these songs from the spreadsheet and correct the points (moving up the songs on every list) the tie on number 10 could be broken without a tie-breaker. Don’t get me wrong, Petri, I don’t want to correct you, you’re doing a fantastic job. I was simply listening to every song on the list (yes, even the Satriani ones) thanks to Spotify and YouTube and while I was listening I was looking on Rateyourmusic the cover art, the comments and, yes, the date of release (not particularly proud of it but probably there are worse things to do).

Re: Favorite Albums and Songs of 2008

Thanks a lot Honorio
I had made some corrections (the ones I was aware).
After deleting the songs that weren't from 2008 (according to your sources which I think are correct) the results would look like this (I moved everything up and checked if poster had voted more than 20 songs and gave points to songs that made to their top 20).
I think Santogold is leading in the tie-breaker now and after this really hope she will win.
