Suicide is painless gets a mention which is nice. Personally think they should delete the original from existence and just make it a manics song. Original is way too jolly

Hi! Remember I posted that link to a vote on THE GREATEST 21st CENTURY SONGS OF ALL TIME etc?
And INWJTEOL was the sole fucking option?
Well thanks to those who voted.
https://www.loudersound.com/features...ntury-so-far/3
It beat JUST BE-CAUSE JUST. BE-CAUAAAHAUSE so that's something.
No idea what's number one. Just linking. Plus, Just Because... Was a better song than that imo.
That's what we get for having limited options. I mean, fucking anything from JFPL or even KYE would have wiped the floor.
Oh and EIE didn't make it to their BEST ALBUMS OF 2020 OF ALL TIME etc

Edit: Ah JFPL that came out of that halcyon year of... 2006.
Work Experience Kid's revenge?

Ah, I felt shit about mocking Alter Bridge. So here's "Blackbird". Looked at the video and thought "under eight minutes...". At least I gave it until 1.12 before skipping along to see where it went. If you want to like Nickelback but just wish they were edgier. Well aren't you in luck? https://youtu.be/yz_j7nVCJJ0

Didn't mean to be as sarcastic as I came across. But damn! JFPL released in 2006! How hard is it to look at a simple Wiki page? (Not you hummingbird, just the write up)

[hummingbird]

I thought jfpl was released 2008 and podcast was wrong. oops.

I think someone is stretching the definition of an indie so thin that even an electron microscope struggle to detect it.
