In 2026 it will refer to Modern Baseball

Status quo rocking all over the world horror

Huh?

The music is awesome and in no way "dad rock".

But the lyrics are another story. :puke:

Wait, is dime saying he had a conversation with Eddie Vedder about Unemployable being dad rock and EV agreed with him?

In my head canon I did yes.

This re-tracking of RA is really doing it for me this week:

1. Can't Keep
2. Cropduster
3. Other Side
4. You Are
5. Get Right
6. Help Help
7. Ghost
8. All or None
9. I Am Mine
10. Undone
11. Arc
12. Love Boat Captain
13. Down

add: Other Side, Undone, Down
cut: Save You, Thumbing My Way, Green Disease, Bushleaguer, Half Full

That seems intriguing, though some of the sequencing seems a little odd. Maybe I'll try it out.

I don't get why PJ received so much flack for Bushleaguer when they have a song that's explicitly telling people to move towards a Republican agenda

rank the songs that eddie should have put his foot down and demanded to re-write the lyrics:

1. get right
2. inside job

I love the lyrics to "Get Right" -- a few awkwardly worded phrases perhaps, but I think the sort of neurotic, stream-of-consciousness writing style fits the rambling feel of the delivery. I honestly wouldn't change anything about that song.

People who dont like Get Right are probably the same idiots that dont love Cropduster and they can go piss themselves

chewm · Post by **chewm** » Thu November 17, 2016 5:59 pm

Yeah, Get Right is pretty solid.

Is it wrong that I like Get Right, Help Help, Can't Keep, Green Disease, and Ghost more than Cropduster?
