Subject: (mobility) me arguing with chris
Brad C said:
<Plus, and I say this speaking for gay men everywhere,
she's
a hottie.>
I say: no comment ;P
Chris said:
a bunch of stuff.
I say: CHILL OUT. Sorry, but you seem angered by my
juvenile comments. Maybe you aren't but I'm NEVER mad.
While that is a lie, when I post stuff like that I'm
not. or something, anyway
<If No Doubt wasn't famous at all, if they were still
playing local
clubs and
never got a huge recording contract would you make
this same complaint? >
No. But then, she probly wouldnt be collabing w/ moby.
I like ND actually, Tragic Kingdom was pretty good, so
was their 1st album. and that rarities one. even the
new one had like a good song on it or something.
But I don't like her vocals on South Side.
<If
not, then your criticism is based soley on the fact
that she is
popular,
which is completely assanine. As others have pointed
out, her vocals,
though in my personal opinion are not great, are much
better than
Moby's--he's admitted so much on several occasions.
He's not a singer,
or
at least a good singer (that's perhaps why he does it
so rarely). >
I agree with that. but just cause gwen is known as a
singer and moby is not, doesnt mean she makes the song
better than moby's album version.
And hey, Moby's popular. and he was popular before
play, just not TRL popular.
And I just want to remind you again that one of my
favorite songs of the moment is number 1 on the
charts, right now. so i'm not hating everything just
cause its popular. i just don't like the gwen version
of south side cause... it just isnt good!
< In
an MTV
120 minutes interview once he also said that he would
love to
collaborate,
well, actually utilize Christina Agulliera's vocals on
a track. He
made it
clear that he wasn't too keen on her music, but that
she has a great
voice,
which she does. Would this make you think any less of
him if he did? >
Nah. I wouldn't have to listen to it.
<Ask
yourself WHY. >
Okay. WHY are you asking these dumb questions?!?!? ;P
< It wouldn't be her writing the songs, just her
voice--this
still represents PURE moby, his talent, his
instruments, HIS
arrangement.>
what if she DID right the songs, and the arrangements
and junk?
Okay I just said that to bust yr balls or something.
I'm not taking any of this seriously, let me remind
you :)
<As for money corrupting him, I don't even think any
of us are in a
position
to claim that at all. Do YOU know the specifics of
his contract? Do >
Bla bla bla bla bla yackety schmackety. :)
<Wow, he WAXES his head? I'd really like to know how
to do that, I
could use
a shine.>
Actually, he goes to the bowling alley and sticks it
in the Shine-O-Ball-O :P
> i think he deserves it. he deserves his fame, his
> money, his popularity. we may never see the moby of
Go
> fame, but oh well. thats just how it goes.
<Just how is he different?>
Easy. None of his music now sounds like Go. He doesnt
make strictly dance tracks.
He may be as friendly or whatever as he was before,
but musically, he's different.
<People, I've been on this fucking list for over 3
years now. A lot of
us
have been on here for a long time. When this list is
good its fucking
spectacular, enlightening discussion, a free exchange
of Moby
information,
etc... But when it gets bad, people on here are the
stupidest fucks on
the
planet(no one in particular, so no personal offense
here). If this
shit
keeps up, I honestly can't see the sense in staying on
this list. I
think
I'm beginning to understand that little schism that
started with the
offshoot list a while back.>
Fine. Bye. I like it here.
;P
ROCK!
