Title: 2nd half of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Post by: stale on 01 Oct 2007, 10:25: I love the first few songs on this cd. Something about it always wears me out quickly, though, and I end up shutting it off somewhere between tracks 6 and 8.

I have never, ever heard the last 3 songs on the album. Am I missing anything? And yes, I would rather post this than actually give them a listen.

And Approaching Pavonis Mons By Balloon is pretty sweet too.

Post by: kablaaamo on 01 Oct 2007, 10:52: If you'd rather post on a forum than listen to those last three tracks on your own, seeing as you've NEVER DONE IT, will someone else's opinion really matter to you? That's some pretty intense indifference.

What the fuck, man.

True, but also completely and utterly irrelevant.

The fact that you posted on the forum asking out opinion of those three tracks as apposed to listening to them yourself confuses me to no end.

I'm EXTREEEEEEEEEEMEly ridiculous

That's for sure
Title: Re: 2nd half of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Post by: stale on 01 Oct 2007, 16:27: I prefer absurd. Pretty much the same, though. The reason for this is that, well, because I haven't heard them, the songs hold a certain novelty to me. I don't want to ruin that by listening to them. If I listen, and they're not that great, I'll curse aloud, "I knew it!" Please, don't let this happen to me.
Title: Re: 2nd half of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Post by: Joseph on 01 Oct 2007, 16:34: I'm sorry. Around here, we understand things like logic. And we're pretty decent with opinions. But that's just pretty ridiculous.

Post by: Johnny C on 01 Oct 2007, 16:44: Have you tried something besides music as a hobby? Perhaps stamp collecting, that's fairly straightforward.

The muteKi does not like to be ignored. PLAY THE DAMN CD ALREADY!!
Title: Re: 2nd half of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Post by: stale on 01 Oct 2007, 17:16: Oh yeah, I know that song. I didn't realize..

I'm listening to the last song now. It has a cool vibe. All We Have Is Now is decent. I have no regrets

Post by: IronOxide on 02 Oct 2007, 03:52: "Approaching Pavonis Mons by Balloon (Utopia Planitia)" (the last track) won more awards than things that win a lot of awards. It is very good.
Title: Re: 2nd half of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Post by: ScrambledGregs on 02 Oct 2007, 07:38: The album has great pacing. If you never listen to the last three songs then I guess you must have ADD.

yes you're missing the experience of listening to 3 flaming lips songs

Post by: CamusCanDo on 06 Oct 2007, 14:52: You are one lazy mother fucker.

You know that, right?
Title: Re: 2nd half of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Post by: idiosyncraticadrummer on 09 Oct 2007, 20:55: C'mon dude, you've never listened to the last three but are posting about it. Just listen to it.
Do You Realize is pretty much one of the best flaming lips songs ever, and contrary to what most people think
Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots is far superior to The Soft Bulletin. C'mon dude, get your act together and listen
to some music instead of talking about it.

haha its so funny how soft bulletin and yoshimi have become "fan boy" albums....THEYRE BOTH GOOD
Title: Re: 2nd half of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Post by: IronOxide on 15 Oct 2007, 13:50: Dude, chocolate is better than cream pies and Yoshimi is better than The Soft Bulletin.

Title: Re: 2nd half of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Post by: Jenter888 on 16 Oct 2007, 12:50: is clouds taste metallic the one with "she dont use jelly"? because i've never heard the album and im pretty sure that yoshimi is better than it
Title: Re: 2nd half of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Post by: carrotosaurus on 16 Oct 2007, 14:29: If you've never heard it, how can you possibly make a statement like that?

No, that's Transmissions from the Satellite Heart. Which is also not as good as Clouds Taste Metallic.
