@avclub-da6838996bc918971a8120034fcfebc4:disqus Good point. It certainly seems like he could have claimed co-authorship but considering his apparent legal paralysis I'm guessing that he never bothered. Its his own fault, in that case.

Coulton did an arrangement, not a composition. Unless he claimed co-authorship of the song on his cover (which has been done by other artists in the past), Coulton can only claim performance rights. If Glee used an unauthorized sample (which is possible) than Coulton can pursue legal action but otherwise their use of…

"I knew I should have taken that left turn at Albuquerque…."

Can't green-text in Disqus, mate.

Well, he did say he'd rather be a ghost, drifting by Shu Lien's side as a condemned soul then enter Heaven….

@avclub-33807fbc68d335db8080d3c10cb78822:disqus Coldplay released one genuinely good album (Parachutes) and a couple great singles ("The Scientist", for one). Mumford & Sons have yet to do that, as far as I know.

They're Coldplay with banjos. I'm not impressed.

The only part of "Hot In Herre" that anyone remembers is the chorus, so it basically counts. I guess.

El Camino made them popular. That's the only reason.

Is Backstrom the Nero Wolfe series of my dreams!? The answer is no.

Funeral is a great album and Suburbs has a few great songs. However, they're marred by their repugnant "Childhood is great and being an adult is like a nightmare I try every day to escape from and boy isn't 'Spring And Fall' the most brilliant poem EVER" twee nonsense.

Seattle has a great Japanese style karaoke place where you can rent a room with friends and thus get trashed and sing "Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely" without (much) shame. I'd never sing in front of a full audience though. That's just horrifying.

Nothing else comes up on Google, so it certainly seems that way.

@avclub-0304234e5dac07d007cf06c22b3f29c4:disqus How ironic.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE YELLING ABOUT!

Sounds like an interesting movie, to be honest. Political correctness has no bearing on whether something is good cinema/art; all it does is determine one's audience.

It's right below The Cave.

To be fair, she probably would have beaten Faith into a pulp if she hadn't been in hiding. It's hard to be rational and clear-headed in a situation like that.

Time to quit my job and become the newest YouTube sensation!
