What the heck does "spatially cohesive" mean?

Its in midtown, actually. Right above Penn Station, which, indeed, is a sewer.

Tim Heidecker: "Most comedy befuddles me and it befuddles people I know. I feel lost because it’s not making me laugh or think" Yes, for the masses hungering for comedy that makes you think, here's shock, gross-out humor and talking shit. Tim and Eric - if you don't know why diarrhea is intellectual, you're stupid.

OK I'll wade in here. Denying the massive talent that was Frank Zappa is like denying that Van Gogh could paint. Frank Zappa was among the very few true musical geniuses to record during the rock era. Incredibly prolific (INCREDIBLY), the man would sit and compose very complex music for large bands, charting out parts

I understand this band Dawes is supposed to be pretty good…

I know its popular to hate on Phil Collins for his pap-filled string of hits, but the guy was a KILLER drummer, one of the all-time greats, really. Listen to Three Sides Live, or Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. The guy had taste and technique.

"Marilyn Manson: The eerie The Pale Emperor is his finest album in years."

Love Bayer. I've watched a few of these, don't know what is supposed to be funny about them.

I believe it was Zeppo's ex wife.

OK, enough puns, let's get to the meat of this story: "The book details Groucho’s tumultuous relationship with his manager, Erin Fleming(…)" Manager, hah! She was an abusive, borderline insane wanna-be actress, fairly attractive, who preyed upon the old comedian's weakness for a well turned ankle. He got her into

They're not saying "Boo-urns", they're saying "Boooooo!"

I hate to be Captain Comedown here, but little mistakes and accidents happen all the time during tapings of TV shows. The shows are edited! In this case the producer's decided to leave it in and give away the car. Believe me, if they didn't want to they'd stop tape, talk to the contestant, (who has signed a super-long

This was really great, exciting news! ….until I saw Tim and Eric's name attached. Sigh. Oh well, there's goes any chance of it being, y'know, funny….(cue stutter cut of people with their eyes rolling back in their heads and their tongues sticking out…hilarity!)

"using the original piece as a template for the resulting song." I guess then Chuck Berry owns rock and roll and Bob Marley owns reggae. Shout all you like, it will not stand. See you back here in a year or two….

There was never a time when "Piano Man" wasn't total shite.

I'm a musician (hence the avatar) and I could not disagree with you more. The verdict is a joke, it was decided by a jury - A JURY! - and will be overturned on appeal 100%. You cannot copyright a vibe, a feel, a groove, a chord progression, etc. Did they steal a lyric, a melody? No. I know everyone, including me,

"Pete Campbell may be descended from Christopher Moltisanti"…

"Perfectly timed key change" is non-existant. Hey Jude never changes key.

Hey Jude does NOT change key. Period. It in no way belongs on this list.
It has a coda that has a different chord progression that what has proceeded, yet it never moves out of the key of F.

Even more brilliant XTC key change, "Rocket from a Bottle" is the rare song that modulates DOWN instead of UP! And it really works, somehow its even more powerful.
