Excruciating, I imagine. Nothing to do with Celine f-ing Dion, though - it's a shitty movie.

It shows a true hatred, that he has worked out all of the details of his fantasy. Many people can learn from this.

I don't get it. I'm not a big fan of the band but I listen to stuff like the following, and it seems to have the right stuff: well-constructed form, a raspy voice, and a melody with both a hook and enough variation to provide interest. It's certainly no worse than a thousand other pop songs. Are you sure you're not just getting on a bandwagon here?

Good.

My understanding is that all the paintings are by Rothko, and that Schoenberg used the series as inspiration for each movement.

Thats one those songs.
Like what I was talking about earlier with The Killers, an ok song that is taken and then ruined by how overplayed to fuck it gets.
Sometimes I don't hate the song itself, I just hate hearing it all the time. Makes it irritating and generic.
