I never liked that song and I hated the 90s brobro asshole movie of the same name even more.
EDIT: The Weird Al Phantom Menace parody pretty legit, though.
That is a top 5 most horrible song to realize to be entirely unironic
Also anything from Marty Robbins that isn’t about old west rooting tooting
But they sound good :(
If you like the rooting tooting western aspect, may I suggest Cisco Houston? He was a folk singer and Wobbly troubadour from the depression era who sang a bunch of the old cowboy tunes
Nah, not my thing. What I like about these guys is the voice. The lyrics are just silly.
Ok fair, but Cisco has the most buttery smooth voice around! Not trying to convince you to like something you don’t, just have to go to bat for the guy
I mean, he sounds like Woody Guthrie or Pete Seger. Not terrible, but not my first pick.
Lmao
Make like your song and die old man
Don Mclean failed to account fo-
"And while Lenin read a book on Marx
The quartet practiced in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died"
The day the bourgeois music got what it deserved
This song confused me as a kid so I asked my dad what is was about, he explained who the people in the crash were. But 9/11 had just happened and I was just like oh that’s basically nothing compared to that and he had to admit that was true.
Anyways, death to America
I also don’t know what it’s about and know maybe 10% of the words. What crash?
idk, I think this was a big deal for boomers or something, I know who Big Bopper was because of a joke on Futurama and Buddy Holly because of the Weezer song that was included with Windows 95
Thanks. Yeah I only know Buddy Holly in name only
Ugh
11/10 no notes, i have laughed at this like 4 separate times
Killing me softly with his dumbassness
American Pie is one of those songs that would make me walk off to do odd tasks or take a bathroom break at work should it have popped up on the radio.
Every time I hear American Pie I get disappointed that it’s not the Weird Al version.
“I was sitting in my Chevy and I felt something heavy”
@[email protected] you gotta know this old song somehow.
OOOOWEEEOOOO I LOOK JUST LIKE BUDDY HOLLY
Don’t be coy with me. Say. The. Next. Lyric.
The blurred image of this photo looks like Data from star trek with a big booger on his shirt
Can’t unsee.
“Being a bigoted piece of shit will totally bring back the good old days where boomer rock stars got to prey on teenage girls and get celebrated for it. The boomers are older than ever, but the creeping targets must remain the same age.”
I HATE SEINFELD BRAIN
I HATE SEINFELD BRAIN
I thought that song was about a plane crash bruh
Yeah not sure what it has to do with “wokism”
I guess he has to try to pretend like the song is deeper than it really is, because otherwise he’s gotta admit to himself that there are about three generations alive today who couldn’t care less about The Day The Music Died.
I think he’s saying the whole song is meant as a criticism of the 60s counterculture and mourning the end of 50s America, and today’s “wokism” is just an extension of the various sixties movements. He’s nostalgic about driving his truck down to the sock hop with a pink carnation in his suit and then going down to drink with the “good ol’ boys” at the levee. Now Lenin (Lennon) is reading Marx and everything is just too damn political! He directly calls out a bunch of the classic 60s counterculture songs.
“good ol’ boys”
Note: don’t ask how good they were to black people
i drove a chevy, i’m eugene levy, my son fucked a pie
