I think the goodwill carried you people too far. This was a horrendous episode. Nothing remotely funny up through Weekend Update, and then I went to sleep to avoid forcing myself to sit through more of that wretched garbage. The only good thing about the cold open was that it didn't feature Armisen as Obama or…

I'm ok with their version. They definitely handled the Talking Heads album well enough, with Crosseyed and Painless being one of the Phish tunes I still don't mind hearing.

Before I edited my post, I was going to say "with the exception of Learning to Fly and On the Turning Away" from Momentary Lapse. I retract that retraction; that is to say, I undo the erase…that is, um, well, right.

I can't believe there hasn't been a single hipster claiming that Pink Floyd was no good after Barrett left. They'd be wrong, for the record. In fact, I'll be so bold as to claim that Piper at the Gates of Dawn is one of the weaker entries in the canon. Then again, if anyone claims the post-Waters material is decent,…

There are few bands that can handle the Floyd responsibly. Pearl Jam, The Shins, and The Foo Fighters are NOT amongst them. Les Claypool could do it. The Flaming Lips did a respectable job. Since this isn't really a thread, let me preemptively hijack it. Who else could do it? I'd like to see Wilco do Brain Damage /…

Yeah well at least he's got a grand piano to prop up his mortal remains…or something

If we had to update the "No Stairway" bit from the Wayne's World movie, the modern version would definitely be "No Wonderwall"

How about these creepy lyrics which never seemed that creepy before:

My cousin used to sing "two farmers, a chicken duck and cow, m-m-m-moo moo now" so there's that

Forgot that noise about Waiting for Superman. Go for "What is the Light???" from Soft Bulletin. Outer space rock.

Automatic bizooty, zero to tooty-fruity is great stuff. In fact, Midnite Vultures may be Beck's finest hour. 

Holy shit I listened to 'Kim' from this album last week and couldn't believe how evil it still sounds. Sometimes I hear something that seemed too heavy at the time (e.g. Nirvana's Bleach when I was 13) later in life and it seems so tame, but this song is still just as evil as ever. He is truly screaming his ass off.…

Correct. See also: everyone who enjoys Doug Benson. Afroman is doubly popular because the bass lines are catchy. They always reminded me of "I'll Take you There" somehow (Staple Singers?).

Also interesting is how the AV Cover of this song is definitely belted out via the anthemic bar-song interpretation rather than the radical leftist screed that it apparently 'really' is.

I love how this response is given for both the Macarena and Led Zeppelin in an earlier thread. This answer should be a meme-type response for any question.

Well, Satan Gave me a Taco is about something (it's right there in the title) in the loosest sense, I guess…

Loser was my first introduction to what I might describe as collage-lyrics. Beck still does it the best in my mind, but that might just be because he was the first one I heard doing it.

Funny…for me, if I DON'T drink, that's when the kia gerbils start showing up, crawling on my walls.

As long as somebody goes as the pretty, pretty princess…I think it's Dr. Robuttnik's avatar?
