Snoop Dog will be remixing "I Walk the Line." Back when I was more uptight about music, I likely would have been displeased by this turn of events. No longer.

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

Lave the boy alone, fuck off and remix some other shit, but leave that boy alone.

Re: This Will Likely Be Simultaneously Awful and Awesome
Why? Isn't it cool that such a wide array of musicians feel inspired by his music? I doubt he would have minded. His radical interpretations of songs by the likes of Nine Inch Nails suggest he's open to other artists interpreting music pretty differently. Plus, he did that kind of shitty song with U2 which, if nothing else, showed he was probably pretty cool with appearing in music that wasn't just his standard chugalong country sound.Marky Dread wrote:Lave the boy alone, fuck off and remix some other shit, but leave that boy alone.
But yeah, fuck all artists who want to pay honor and tribute to a musician of a different genre. Fuck them up their asses.

Re: This Will Likely Be Simultaneously Awful and Awesome
That was surprisingly decent... I more surprised that Willie Nelson was involved in something halfway decent then Snoop Dogg though. I don't like Nelson at all. Everything I've heard of his is just so lifeless and boring. Seems everyone loves him. Probably just because everyone is a bunch of dope smoking hippies.matedog wrote:He does have this interesting new single
Man, I love that song. Perfect lyrics for Cash to hear sing.Flex wrote:he did that kind of shitty song with U2

Re: This Will Likely Be Simultaneously Awful and Awesome
For the record, I both love Willie and loathe both dope and dope smoking hippies. You might like his new one with Wynton Marsalis. It's got some good energy to it. He is pretty damned mellow usually, which might be a turn off.Jimmy Jazz wrote:That was surprisingly decent...

JC was fine in it, but I thought Bono's backing vocals were wanky even for his standards and the music was kinda boring. As I said, lyrics and Cash's contribution were good tho.Man, I love that song. Perfect lyrics for Cash to hear sing.

Re: This Will Likely Be Simultaneously Awful and Awesome
Actually, I shouldn't say I've never enjoyed anything by Willie Nelson. On the third season of SNL he does a song - Whiskey River and it was pretty good. But then his duet with Mary Kay Place canceled it out. And I realize that one sentence is bad I meant "perfect lyrics to hear Cash sing."Flex wrote:For the record, I both love Willie and loathe both dope and dope smoking hippies.

I couldn't care less really it's all just music to me but as everybody else was saying it was a good idea, I thought I would go against the grain as it was.Flex wrote:Why?
