Looks like you're a quite open-minded guy - you have so many interests - in politics, music - I mean so protagonic. That's cool of you.

wow, thank you. i try to be as much open minded as i can. in terms of music i try to listen to it all. then my taste tells me if i like it or not and my theorical musical knowledge (as i´m a musician) shows me if something´s good or bad even if i don´t like it. for example i don´t like king crimson though i think they´re excellent musicians and their music is well made. same with frank zappa or david bowie or pink floyd. i used to say things like "i don´t like it so it´s bad". then i understood taste has nothing to do with something being good or bad. specially in art. new order´s music is a lot less complex than king crimson´s. but i like what they do, they touch my soul. and king crimson doesn´t. simple as that. but i´d be stupid if i say that their music is bad. why? because i don´t get it or like it? things aren´t black or white, there´re a lot of grays! ;) and i try to do that in all aspects of life. i try to understand things before making comments. i like sharing opinions but i just hate people who scream out unquestionable statements of things they don´t know deeply. yeah, i try to keep my mind open. but i´m not a saint or a genius. i´m learning every day!

10p to the first person to tell me the connection between this song and New Order.

i'm sure you enjoyed their performance on the MTV movie awards, then? with the 100 or so girls prancing around in their skivvies--kind of like a giant slumber party a la 90210.

Why, oh why, did I have to miss that? :cry:

:lol:

But seriously, they are hot, but one thing I've never quite been able to figure out is why musicians are supposed to be sexually attractive. I mean, there must be some musical genius somewhere who never got anywhere because he/she is a total slob. What does the sexual attractiveness of the artist have to do with anything when the music is what should count? A piece of music should be able to stand or fall on its own, without 100 or so girls prancing around in their skivvies to prop it up.

In conclusion, The music is the only thing that should matter, but then again, you know what men think with; 100 prancing girls in their skivvies = :jump:

well frank black was never exactly gods gift, bob dylan the same, rod stewart - i could go on

The guitarrist in this song played with Bernard in Electronic :D

Saw them on mtv movie awards, bad. Heard they've done a version of "How Soon Is Now" by The Smiths, even worse.

As for the lesbian thing.. it's another attempt to do what Samantha Fox did in the 80's, and it works

Does this mean they'll be doing sub-culture, if so lets have the live lyrics please. :brow:

Well yes, but that isn't what I was thinking of. Morrissey asked "How Soon Is Now?" - Barney's reply was "Sooner Than You Think". Fact.

Time for a Russia Appreciation Night...

Tomorrow night I think I'll listen to t.a.tu. while drinking Stolichnaya and playing Tetris.

Who's with me?

God I could go for a sanny right about now!

All I can say is that I have downloaded their album a few days ago and I liked it A LOT! I liked "Not Gonna Get Us" even better than "All The Things..." and just couldn't stop to listen to their tracks. They probably have good producers and songwriters behind them, but the vocals are sensual and kind of provocative (sometimes). Their music is pure and good pop, a lot better than most of "young girls that sing" we have worldwide - and they are around 18 years old...

20 Jul 2003, 16:03

I think I'd still like a sandwich.

It's Trevor Horn... who is behind the Pet Shop Boys

(And I didn't mean anything by saying that!)

24 Jul 2003, 00:04

Trevor was not involved in ther production of their original album (russian) as far as I know, although he produced the English version (and he has helped with the lyrics, too).

Personally, I prefer the graphics on his t.a.T.u. thread...

There are musical genius too that just.. can't sing!

This is why some people stick to songwritting.. and people like David Foster and Dionne Warren get rich!

Sheesh, Célion Dion isn't really good looking and she's considered as the "biggest singer in the world" right now.. I admit she got a better stylist than when she was 14 over here, but still... :D

Anyone with a stylist can look good! And you can be ugly and do Hard Rock & Metal stuff :lol:
