Title: Make up your own Hold Steady lyric.
Post by: ImRonBurgundy? on 29 Jul 2007, 19:13: Pretty self-explanatory. Make up lyrics that sound like they could be in Hold Steady songs. Things like meter and rhythm don't really matter, this is The Hold Steady we're imitating after all.

She said, "Nick Lowe came to my birthday party.
And then he couldn't stop laughing
When the conversation turned to peace, love, and understanding."

He was trippin' on mescaline,
Staring blankly at the Nativity scene
I decided to leave when he started beatin' on the figurines.

Post by: SleeperCylon on 30 Jul 2007, 21:24: I don't quite understand it myself. But apparently, it's okay to use anti-gay slurs, so long as you're not actually referring to gay people.

I'll have to confer with some actual gay people about that, but straight people who are rather proud of their manliness seem to feel that way.

But actually, there has been a study that measured people's arousal when being shown male and female pictures. And they managed to correlate homosexual arousal with hostility toward homosexuals. So that just proves it: All of Congress is gay.

Post by: Shadows Collide on 31 Jul 2007, 00:17: Ok, my comment was designed to cause serious anger from you guys as a friend told me you LOVE the hold steady, and I find them somewhat mediocre. Sorry!

I think that they use "having a good time" as an excuse for lackluster song-writing. Their last album seriously disappointed after what I had expected.

Here's my stab at a Hold Steady lyric.

He said it's hard to lose when you're a winner.
She said it's hard to win when you're a sinner.

Post by: mfpole on 10 Sep 2007, 16:38: Some people really like me
But they dont work at MTV
They do their daily work
at a site called pitchfork
They gave us best new music
but we were used to it
ALONG THE BANKS OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER

I really like the Hold-Steady
Separation Sunday is alottt better than Boys and Girls in America though

Post by: Tehz on 10 Sep 2007, 16:45: That made me lol.

I like them also, but I do have to admit, the lyrics can be a bit ridiculous. But that's only if you look at them the wrong way. ;)

Post by: mfpole on 10 Sep 2007, 16:51: Some of their lyrics are awesome too.
Ive always liked the lyrics to "How a Resurrection Really Feels"

and of course,

"I was seeing double for three straight days,
after I got born again
And it feel so good to be around so many people
well, of course half of them were visions
the other half i knew from being in the program with me"
I think thats it
I didnt look it up

That's really good. I lurve me some hold steady, but I couldn't top that.
