Shadows Collide:
I think the song 1 2 3 4 has kinda hurt "The Reminder" as a whole.
1. It is the weakest song on an otherwise beautiful album
2. She's been labeled as simple pop despite the refreshing, delicate nature of her music. Sure, there's pop there, but so much more as well.
3. Subsequently, she's not valued as much as "indie" stuff, not given as much respect from a lot of people.
Does anyone agree?
EDIT: Plus my brothers laugh at me when the iPod commercial comes on ("You're a pussy" comments thus ensue)
Jackie Blue:
I don't see what's wrong with "1 2 3 4".
Speaking of songs in commercials, I really wish there was a recorded version of that Cat Power song in the necklace commercial that's a cover of a Cat Stevens song. It's so beautiful. But she only did it for the commercial. :-(
Tom:
Scythian Empires by Andrew Bird was in an add this year, can't remember what for. Section 9 by the Polyphonic Spree was in an add for Mt. Franklin bottled water.
Jackie Blue:
And let's not forget that none of you would be listening to Nick Drake if not for Volkswagen.
