I Stand Accused or B Movie ?'

What a great movie! I haven´t liked the first one too much, and was quite suspicions about this one, but what a great surprise. Kirsten Dunst is sexiest than ever; Alfred Molina (Dr. Octopus) is great; Sam Raimi, Michael Chabon and Alfred Gough made a gorgeous job. The best movie based on Comic Book...

welcome anyway...

After listening to the Get Happy bonus disc for about a month (more than once a day!), i tried to listen to the original album again. what a drag! Otherwise excellent songs like 'Men Called Uncle', 'King Horse', and mainly 'Clowntime Is Over', 'Black And White World' and '5ive Gears In Reverse' soun...

Let´s all that a deep breath boys... 8) > I suppose you also think 1960s soul is 'very lame' You supposed wrong. > Elvis's vocals are strained and nothing special Totally agree. I do know that Get Happy!! is fill with amazing little songs, but to be honest, some performances leave me cold! Costello ...

Mr. Tambourine Man 'Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings...

hey cosmos who said that?


eggrert?

i´ll listen to it this weekend.


and what about you and your Blonde on Blonde listening?

WHAR: Brutal Youth his best? Never heard such thing... As pophead2k pick, BY might be a fave. but i never saw it ranked in the top!

Dare i ask why do you think its his best?

As much as i love Elliott Smith songs and words, Costello is unmistakably a better songwritter.

It hurts me to say it, but it´s true!

nice thread clairequilty.



Exile on Main St. might be the Stones greatest record, but i always rank Let it Bleed and Beggars Banquet as their best and secord best albums...

>I gotta say "Armed Forces"


why´s that?


maybe 'green shirt' and 'Big Boys'....


mainly the first Big Boys lines:

'I am starting to function
In the usual way
Everything is so provocative
Very very, temporary'

Hah, "Chelsea" has nothing to do with sex!


i bet it has

Probably This Years Model....

'(I Don't Want To Go To) Chelsea', 'This Year's Girl'...


yep, Costello never been so obscene nasty and sexy as in here...


Any other nominee?

as far as i know (and i really don´t know much), the second set is goin to be better than this one....


btw, is gonna be realesed until the end of the year?

Where´s King of America???
