Top Gun from the top!

Great comment. Compelling, and rich.

I know this is going to get buried under the 800 pre-existing comments, but for my money, "Watermelon In Easter Hay" may just be the greatest guitar solo of all time.

I'm a very casual Who viewer (last new episode I watched was "The Snowmen," in order to give you an idea of how casual), but to dismiss Torchwood entirely seems a bit wrongheaded.

As an angsty male teenager, I suppose my logic was that there had to be more to life than Starbucks and Publix every two miles. After having visited cities like Asheville and Charlottesville , I guess I just wanted a little culture in my life.

Having spent 2002-2012 growing up in Boca, I can tell you that it's honestly a mixed bag. There's nothing to do there but party, go see movies and chill at the beach. Now, if your income is in six figures, your options significantly widen, but given that I grew up in the middlest of middle class homes, the closest I

I think it would be in everybody's best interests if we didn't discuss "Land of a Million Drums"…

I take raw coke, cook it crack, saran wrap it.

In regards to "Afterlife" having ought to have been the album closer, the argument for the second to last song being the more appropriate final song can be made for every Arcade Fire album up to this point, so I'm kind of glad to see the tradition continue.

This was my go-to punchline during the whole heroin arrest fiasco- it really is universally applicable to any inappropriate Sky Ferreira related situation. And one of the best songs of last year.

…Live at Fashion Rocks EP?

Up until "Reflektor" came out, I was a pretty casual Arcade Fire listener- only had "Rebellion," "The Suburbs" and "Ready to Start". "Reflektor," though? I'll give Arcade Fire this- never before has the strength of one song moved me to the point of digesting a band's entire discography in one sitting (or in my case, a

Wot?

I'm pretty jazzed about Reflektor- the fact that the song was just so damn good (2013 Banger of the Year contender in my eyes) had me go back and listen to Arcade Fire's entire discography (sans the initial EP and the Bowie EP, but I have the last one and it's only three songs anyway, so it won't be long) over the

If only a well-respected celebrity who wasn't a conservative asshole would call out Obama as well…

…no? I fully understand and grasp social semiotics, as well as social implications, but I'll tell you what I told my friends who gave me similar grief over this kind of thing: Kanye is not being victimized here. If this joke were making Kanye a victim, or somehow implying his grandiose statements could be attributed

@Bitenuker:disqus, are you saying then that jokes, no matter how innocuous, no matter how irreverent, should not be made lest they contain implications only noticeable by someone, somewhere, who was looking for something to be offended by? Comedy should be ruled by the PC-Police?

I love Kanye- I've seen him live, listened to all of his albums (Even Cruel Summer!), but this is ridiculous. Jimmy Kimmel is a comedian. He parodies things- I'm not sure if he has a formal job description, but I'm sure it'd be in there somewhere.

A Hellblazer show on network television can only end badly. Put this on FX and can Goyer, I'd be all over it- but as it is, no.

Liked for "Oh Yeah".
