I'd wager most folks would agree with you there, zeb.

I'd say they're about even, really. In any case, I never listen to either one anymore.

Ryan adams is great

Can't argue with that.

Im controversial!

You see where Jack White said he doesn't belong here and it's torture everyday to find reasons to stay? Also, he said Meg White won't return any of his phone calls.

that guy just needs to keep his mouth closed. That was an awkward interview. Maybe he is worn down but he isnt doing himself any favors.

I liked at the end when he said nothing really bothers him but sometimes he pretends that things do.

It's like he's trying to be Andy Kaufman, but without any of the humor, whimsy, or charm. I really love the man's music, but he can really be insufferable at times.

But seriously, it's his whole general attitude. I don't have anywhere near the beef with him that so many out there do. But there are definitely times where his whole thing gets under my nails.

The way he reacted at the now infamous RCMH show a couple years back is a good example of what I'm talking about. And he took a jab at that again in that interview, actually, when he referenced only doing seated acoustic shows. Just sort of a dick move. But whatevs. There are a shit ton of artists out there who are far worse.

tom's diner came on the radio right as i was returning from lunch...that song makes me feel strange all over

Santigold's debut album is the most repetitive thing I've ever heard. Every song is one verse (with the same lyrics!) and one chorus repeated over and over until the track becomes roughly song-length. It can be pretty insufferable, and also pretty frustrating when the hooks are as good as they often are on the album. What a waste.

More repetitive than that "funk soul brother" song by Fatboy Slim?
