This track is pure 😲 perfection, but let’s talk about that piano solo at the end... honestly, it just doesn't get any better than that 😲

Basically, we absolutely NEED to have someone like Dan Auerbach on our listening sessions 🙂

You aren't seriously going to make me play nice with people I've already completely cut out of my life, are you?😉

Of course not; I have absolutely no desire to be held responsible for various little incidents. I'll burn everything down for you. 🙂 I certainly hope I'm not charging headlong into mortal danger here. 😬

P.S. You aren't exactly the picture of simplicity yourself.😬 👍

Now that sounds like a polite, sophisticated way of saying "psychotic."😂

I’ve been hearing that quite a bit lately (emphasis on the *lately*)... honestly, manipulators are just people, so please let me 😛 😁

Personally, I find that kind of vibe rather charming. For the time being, 🙂 😁

But you still haven't actually told me which specific tracks of Hannah's you listened to... hehe

the thing that feels

btw has anyone checked out Carina Round yet? What's your take? I listened to a few songs and then practically coerced someone into downloading her entire discography for me, but I ended up getting into a massive argument with that person (the friend, not Carina herself!) in the middle of it, so... yeah, no Carina for me since I'm currently avoiding that person 😬

Carina Round is absolutely brilliant. She has this intense Patti Smith energy mixed with such deep sensibility—it's quite the combination 😍

Anyway, you are a complicated woman, ambermoose6

Grace Carter80 said:😬
Well, look who finally decided to show up... I was actually starting to get worried about you.😁

In the absolute shambles that is my daily routine, the internet was the one constant.😁 But even that final sanctuary has been swallowed whole by the chaos.😁

Cyanide said:Tori Amos, PJ Harvey

You can officially shut up now, because you've just made it onto my all-time favorites list. 🙂

But seriously, there is absolutely NO NEED for you to say another word. 😁 😁

Noah Myers67 said:Well, here I am, stepping in to offer my support as well... provided that Emily Hernandez28 decides to take me along for the ride. 😉

It would be my absolute honor to play a part in helping you embrace your more feminine side. 😍Of course, yours. 😁

Grace Carter80 said:Who on earth is Emily Hernandez28 talking to here?
Is it PJ Harvey?? Or just some big white rabbit chasing shadows?

Tony: Do you see purple people? My friend, he saw purple people. And so the state came and took him away. He didn't like that. Some time went by and, and he told 'em he didn't see purple people no more.
Susanna: He got better.
Tony: Nah, he still sees 'em. 😁

Here is a little feminist 😁 topic (please don't crucify me for this one) and I am asking granitecrane upfront to please stay out of this 😛

Hannah Montana

ambermoose6 said:@Emily Hernandez28/">@@Emily Hernandez28 I can't believe you aren't feeling the Hannah Montana vibe... I thought we had pretty similar (un)refined tastes, so that statement from her really caught me off guard. What exactly did you listen to by her? (Feel free to DM me so this thread doesn't spiral back into Heavy Metal territory 😁 ))

Honestly, I don't quite know myself, but when I listen to her music, I just don't feel "won over." I think I need something a bit more suggestive, even though her lyrics are sharp as a razor in the best possible way. That lack of expression in her sound just isn't engaging enough for my specific musical sensibilities.

Oh, and ambermoose6, take a look at this 🙏 🙏

By the way, I'm sending you some Alanis Morissette—she's quite the clever little manipulator 😁. Do you want some Regina Spektor too??

I have officially unmasked your blatant misogyny 🙂

Honestly, I’ve come to the conclusion that overweight men who make zero effort to lose weight are just pure egocentrists—people who only care about their own immediate gratification at the expense of everyone else. (And please, no offense intended toward 😁 😁 on this forum
)

granitecrane said:And trust me, Emily Hernandez28, if you saw how good I look at 250 lbs, you’d be absolutely floored.☕

True, but let's be honest—carrying all that extra weight means you run out of steam pretty fast.😁 😳

Oh, absolutely, octopus 🤣 🤣 🤣

granitecrane said:Just wait until Emily Hernandez28 finds out how much I actually weigh; she’ll probably be tripping over herself to marry me just because I’ve got that rugged, mountain-man charm. 😬

So, I somehow managed to pick up on the idea that Emily Hernandez28 is particularly sensitive when it comes to discussions about physical deformities. 😕 😁 😘

It looks like you’ve officially entered what people call
the dark night of the soul.
Honestly, why on earth would you try to wander through a labyrinth like that alone instead of finding someone experienced to guide you? I mean, what’s the endgame here? Are you hoping to trigger some wild esoteric epiphany, start levitating off your chair, or something equally dramatic? Even if you did manage to pull that off, what would it actually prove? You’d still be left standing there without a single shred of an explanation. It could be anything at all—the actual meaning behind it would remain just as questionable as before.

In my opinion, the most productive path would be to focus on developing your earthly self. You should be doing something meaningful with the ego you currently possess. By the way, I have to ask: why are you so desperate to escape this reality?

Noah Myers67 said:What kind of "knight" are we talking about here? I'm just an ordinary guy from the streets.🙏 🙏

No, seriously, it's like some delusional version of Don Quixote🙂

...as if you've never dealt with a bout of diarrhea or a loose stomach in your life.😬

Well, at least you aren't being outright repulsive.😛

That’s certainly not how a gentleman conducts himself.

There is something truly timeless about his music that I’ve experienced firsthand. There are those specific moments when his songs just start playing on the radio while I'm out driving, and everything feels like it's hitting a point of near perfection. 😳

Dana Anderson4 said:It’s easy for someone like Julia to say all that, considering how many times he’s managed to talk his way into trouble... I honestly think he’s just bored at this point.

So, are you Jewish too?😁

Just some Catholic guys🙂

stormyviper11 said:Well, honestly, aside from Momus, I can't think of anyone whose entire body of work is quite so explicitly dedicated to sex... 😁 And once you actually sit down with "Beautiful Losers," everything just clicks into place...

Sex? Please. He isn't exactly some common libertine 😁. It’s more about how he manages to slip a virgin right under your skin rather than just under her skirt 😉.

Rebecca Thompson67 said:I honestly don't know; for me, it's just hard to say. It seems like you might have cut off mid-sentence while typing about high school, but if you were trying to start a discussion about the high school experience, I'm all ears. Back in my day, navigating those hallways felt less like an educational journey and more like a strategic military operation. You had to decide which social faction to align with just to survive lunch without feeling like an outcast. It was intense, slightly absurd, and frankly, far more dramatic than any teen soap opera on network TV. Are you looking to reminisce about the glory days, vent about some old academic trauma, or perhaps dissect how much things have changed since we were sitting in those cramped desks? Whatever it is, lay it out. I've got plenty of time and a healthy dose of sarcasm ready to go. What exactly should one expect from a singer, a rock lyricist, or a singer-songwriter? Is it enough to simply deliver a catchy melody, or are we demanding something more profound—a piece of their soul laid bare on the stage? Personally, I’ve always felt that if an artist asks for your attention, they owe you more than just a polished performance; they owe you a shred of truth, even if it's uncomfortable. It’s essentially an act of training or educating someone. Depending on the context, it can range from a formal academic instruction to more hands-on, practical mentorship. In common conversation, you might hear it used when discussing how someone is being groomed for a specific role or taught the ropes in a professional setting. It’s fascinating how people view interpersonal relationships—that messy, complicated web of connections we all find ourselves caught in. It’s less like a choreographed dance and more like trying to navigate a crowded subway station during rush hour in New York; everyone is bumping into each other, nobody is quite sure where they’re going, and yet, somehow, we all manage to reach our destinations. I’ve spent a lot of time observing these dynamics, often from a distance, perhaps with a bit too much cynicism for my own good. We tend to project these grand, cinematic expectations onto our partners—expecting a sweeping romance straight out of a classic Hollywood drama—only to be met with the mundane reality of deciding who’s picking up the dry cleaning or why the dishwasher was loaded incorrectly. It’s a constant friction between the ideal and the actual. There is a certain irony in how we seek connection. We spend our lives building walls, carefully constructing these personas to protect our vulnerabilities, only to realize that true intimacy requires us to tear those very walls down. It’s an exhausting paradox. You want to be known, but being known is terrifying because it means losing control over how others perceive you. In my experience, most conflicts aren't actually about the "big" things—it's rarely about the stolen car or the massive betrayal. It’s the small, grating inconsistencies that wear a relationship down. It’s the silence when you expected a conversation, or the subtle shift in tone that signals a withdrawal. We are all just trying to find a way to exist alongside another person without losing ourselves in the process. It's a delicate balancing act, much like walking a tightrope over a canyon, hoping the wind doesn't pick up too suddenly.

I don't take them all that seriously, to be honest. I’m certainly not out here hunting for prophets, gurus, or some grand ideological leaders among them. Personally, I'm perfectly satisfied with just a little bit of poetry.

It’s funny how people jump into a fray without a single thought about whether they actually want to be part of the conflict. We see it all the time online—people looking for any excuse to pick a fight, just for the sake of the friction itself. It’s a peculiar kind of hunger, isn't it? This restless need to provoke, to clash, to find someone to push against just to feel some semblance of momentum. In my experience, most of these little skirmishes aren't even about anything meaningful. They don't have a core principle or a genuine grievance behind them; they're just empty exercises in aggression. It reminds me of those old, dusty debates you’d see in certain academic circles back in the day—lots of shouting, very little substance, and everyone leaves feeling slightly more exhausted than when they started. I remember sitting in a coffee shop in downtown Chicago a few years back, watching two guys get absolutely heated over something trivial—I think it was a disagreement about a local sports team's strategy—and the sheer amount of energy they were pouring into being "right" was almost impressive in its futility. They weren't trying to solve a problem; they were just performing hostility. If you're going to engage, at least have the decency to have a point. Otherwise, you're just adding to the noise. 🙂

You completely misunderstood me. 😉
Reflecting on the people who truly matter isn't some trivial high school exercise. Our own perspective is inherently limited; our vision is narrow by design. Sometimes, you simply have to borrow someone else's eyes to perceive things you never knew existed—or perhaps things you could never have grasped on your own, no matter how hard you tried. That is the kind of education I was talking about. 😉

By the way, yeah, this whole thing about the Buddhist monastery sounds incredibly tacky. It’s honestly right up there with the nonsense you hear from Scientology or people obsessed with Kabbalah. But hey, fine—if someone needs to go searching for themselves that way, that's their business. It's their private affair.

Spirituality as a preservation tactic... without a shadow of a doubt. 😉
