Iron Heart Forum Music League

[ARNC]

Really enjoyed listening to everything in this round - I’ll have to revisit my shortlist tonight as I need to lose 6 votes somewhere!

[endo]

to me the most interesting playlist in this competitions so far

[mclaincausey]

A Music League first: I was in attendance at two performances on the playlist

[mclaincausey]

Oh—and Lydia Loveless being gender fluid reminded me to castigate y’all for submitting and upvoting a non-binary performer (Tash Sultana) under Grrrl Power—a “they” and not a “she”

Decided it would be a bigger Dick move to mention this ahead of than after the voting.

[GraemeE]

General consensus for the last round - would/should sarcasm be considered protest?

Throwaway example: Randy Newman's political science

[mclaincausey]

Yeah sure! We can change it if y’all want too but would need to hustle

[T4920]

@George-Homme are you ready to cast your votes?

[George Homme]

@T4920 Damn. Missed that!

[T4920]

@George-Homme No worries, get your votes in for the next round quickly before the window closes!

[Tago Mago]

@mclaincausey @Mizmazzle @chrisjohnnick last chance to submit your songs

[Mizmazzle]

@Tago-Mago thanks bro!! Done!

[T4920]

Love to see Moon River in the playlist, a true classic.

Almost submitted the Frank Ocean cover myself ..

[jerkules]

Latest Chill Out playlist might be my favourite so far. Some real gems, enjoying it a lot and saving for future listens.

[Tago Mago]

had to skip during the deftones song, they just do nothing for me. I have yet to finish an entire song of theirs in one go. on the other hand, great to see gordon lightfoot

[Mizmazzle]

@jerkules I agree! Love the range of genres and so many of my faves in there. Listening to Three Days on the way to work this am had the desired effect!! Love that album!!

[mclaincausey]

Thanks! I’m out from now on, too busy. Who wants to be the admin?

[GraemeE]

Claire de Lune= max chill
This version comes up every now and then on my YouTube suggestions
Any guitar nerds will appreciate the charlie christian pickup he has on that tele (Tweedy does the same swap out on one of his)

[T4920]

On this Clair de Lune video, there is a guy who goes by the name mrtortla3895 who has posted a short paragraph about his day, every day, for the last 971 days in the comments.

Once every few weeks, I listen to the song whilst reading his posts. I can't explain the feeling it gives me, but there's such beauty and catharsis in the mundanity of day to day life alongside the music.

Today's post;

[George Homme]

@T4920 it happens that Summer time causes me sadness for some reason. Yesterday i was thinking a similar concept. A little different though. Buy an 120page notebook and write something every single day listening to a song. I am seeing it as process for summer to end.

[T4920]

@George-Homme
Day 1: I am sad because I can't wear my 25oz jeans today, it is too hot...
Day 2: I am sad because I worn my 25oz jeans and now they are sweaty and smelly...
Day 3: I am sad because I had to wash my 25oz jeans
Day 4: I am sad because I shouldn't have washed my 25oz jeans

Summer of sadness, IH style
