it’ll probably take about three minutes 😍

blueranger12 said:Why on earth does it matter so much to you that songs stay clean and untainted? 🙂 Walk me through your logic here. 🙂

Well, I suppose it’s simply because we’re talking about Arcade Fire, and honestly, once you factor that in, I feel like any further debate just sort of hits a dead end.😍

I don't know... I mean, they took such an incredibly beautiful song and just turned it into a complete, utter mess,🙂

Oh, come on now... don't you start messing with me too.

I’m just saying, I have absolutely no clue what on earth State Farm was thinking, trying to handle life insurance...

hm.

I mean, honestly, what is with all this constant bickering, the petty insults, and the endless backstabbing going on here lately? It’s just... a lot.

blueranger12 said:I don't buy it; you think them appearing in a commercial makes them too mainstream, yet somehow you’d prefer they stayed some niche, underground thing🙂 😁

not really, I just have no clue what on earth Rebellion was thinking with that insurance tie-in*

Unknown said:Oh, absolutely, total chaos, the whole world is clearly spiraling into oblivion just because those Arcade Fire fans you follow—who I assume are basically your entire social circle—actually managed to get some mainstream traction, which I suppose bruised your ego just a little bit, oh boy...

😬

Excuse me? 🙄

It’s not even that I mind seeing them pop up in commercials or whatever; it’s more that ads have become so incredibly constant and aggressive lately that, honestly, after a while, I can’t even listen to a song used in an ad without it being totally ruined for me. I actually really love Rebellion. If they want to sell out via commercials meant for markets outside of America, then fine by me—I’ll be perfectly happy about it. 😁

It's basically just because of that... nothing else, really...😉

I mean, honestly, how could anyone possibly resist posting anything here?

😍

Yeah, they really are... 🙂

So, they actually went and put Arcade Fire in a Unique commercial...😲 😲 😲
Honestly, I feel like there should be a special, dedicated circle of musical purgatory just for people who pull stunts like this...😠 😠

*honestly, I feel a bit embarrassed about this one*

Honestly, this sequel is just fantastic. I found myself particularly captivated by the whole subplot involving the mammoth and his mate—it really dives deep into their dynamic and who's actually running the show.

Carol Jackson45—you really ought to hear this breakdown of the Arcade version. 😍

Honestly, I think you might want to give my previous post another read. She saw it with her own eyes—like, she could practically smell the situation—yet somehow she's sitting there trying to lecture me on the nuances of flavor profiles. It's quite something, I suppose. 🙄

Oh, please, we're talking about a high school junior here.
The money he blew on those fancy drinks will be gone before the semester ends.
It's not like he's the only kid who's ever messed up this badly.

One can only hope. 😢

Look, I never actually said that smoking a joint always leads straight down a rabbit hole toward cocaine or horse or whatever other nonsense people get into. I was merely pointing out a rather well-known example from my own life experiences.🙄

"Started out with a little weed and ended up on lines of coke."🙄

People can keep rolling their eyes if they want, I suppose, but for me, this is just the reality—this sad, messy reality... 😢

and honestly, going from a joint to cocaine in just three months sounds like quite the rapid progression.

Well, that goes for you too, I guess... because what do you actually know about this kid? You don't really know him, do you? You don't see him every single day, and you certainly haven't witnessed all his "brilliant" little exploits firsthand, right? I highly doubt it.

I suppose I can tell you how to distinguish cocaine from heroin just by the taste... though I'd highly advise against trying that at home, obviously. Heroin has this sharp, bitter bite to it, whereas coke is... well, different. It’s actually kind of tragic, really. A friend of mine—who, by the way, is currently a junior in high school—told me he started out just messing around with joints, but over the last three months, he’s spiraled straight into coke. It’s just... it's a mess. You should see the look in his eyes lately; it’s haunting, I guess.👍

Hmm... let me think about it. I used to have these few letters—personal things, you know?—that were so incredibly dear to me, and I honestly convinced myself that every single album out there carried that same kind of weight. But then, I ended up visiting this one beauty specialist who seems to have this relentless habit of hyping everything up the second she finishes a service. It happened once, then twice, and after it happened a third time, I figured, fine, I’ll actually sit down and listen to this latest CD (which, if we’re being honest, is basically their debut, isn't it?). And what happened? Well, it was more of the same. Over and over again. 😠 😠 😠 The music is just... water. But not the refreshing kind; more like that lukewarm, tasteless tap water you get when you're stuck in a waiting room. Everything feels mass-produced and utterly predictable. I suppose I am genuinely curious, though, which underwhelming track they'll decide to push next...🙄 *looking forward too*
