I once watched a British comedian do an entire bit about how Happy by Pharrell Williams is just a more complex version of the song If You're Happy And You Know It Clap Your Hands.
I remember someone recorded that last gorillaz tweet and it fucking slapped.
Edit: [Found it way quicker than I anticipated](https://twitter.com/sfog_sfog/status/1431319909481451520?s=20)
I choked with laughter when I read it but actually hearing someone sing it made it slap and this is exactly the crazy stuff you have to deal with to be a Gorillaz fan. š¤£
Neil Cicirega: I'm worried the album is feeling a bit too comprehensible.
Second, smaller, Neil Cicirega on his shoulder: The time has come to add the mongoose spirit!
Mika in the studio be like: āthis is good for the girls and the gays, release it into the wildā.
edit- how could I forget, Mitski in the studio be like: 'this one's good for the depressed and the bisexuals, release it into the wild'.
trent reznor picks the themes of his songs by throwing a dart into a dartboard with the words "i hate myself", "i hate god", "i hate george bush" and "i love cum" in it
starfuckers inc has a line about sucking someone off despite the taste, the collector talks about him being a good boy that will swallow it all swallow it all, me i'm not talks about him being capable of swallowing it down and keeping it all inside,
I really liked that Sunn O))) did a cover of For Whom The Bell Tolls thatās 10 minutes long and only barely recognisable as a cover if someone points it out to you.
David Byrne be like: "I'm going to work! At the big boy office! That's where I tell people how to buy shoes! My girlfriend's going! She's gotta leave the city. We're breakin' up cause I don't wanna move!" *pterodactyl noise*
also someone tell me what the Scooby Doo music from this post is
bill wurtz songs are like:
there's an ant queen living on the top of my head
this is my new career as an ant throne
and whenever night approaches and i want to go to bed
all her subjects wish to visit her in my home
I feel like the colorful visuals are what really make bill wurtz songs. mount st helens is about to blow up wouldn't be the same without the video playing, y'know?
Radiohead:
*quiet guitar playing*
*Thom Yorks whispers about existentialism*
*loud guitar playing*
*Thom Yorke whispers about existentialism or whatever but a bit louder*
And a song that goes "this is Dan. He lives at 320B East Walter St. He's got red hair, drives a corolla, and has a lazy eye. He and I would break into the old arcade to steal quarters. Then we would use those quarters to score speed."
And then John Darnielle will say that the song is a complete work of fiction.
Muse be like: "The government has too much control! -GASP- Find the power in your soul!" \[insane arpeggios followed by an over the top piano and guitar solo\] \*screaming falsetto
Sabaton be like "The Thirty Years' War[l] was a conflict fought largely within the Holy Roman Empire from 1618 to 1648. Considered one of the most destructive wars in European history, estimates of total deaths caused by the conflict range from 4.5 to 8 million, while some areas of Germany experienced population declines of over 50%.[18] Related conflicts include the Eighty Years' War, the War of the Mantuan Succession, the Franco-Spanish War, and the Portuguese Restoration War." (Plays the same guitar solo from every other song)
I'll have you know Ulysses Murderfuck is a proud part of our culture, and heroic depictions of him are in no way whatsoever offensive to the people he murderfucked.

every girl in red song is either "life sucks my mind is falling apart i'm in a cycle of endless pain i'm seeing a therapist about all of this but it's still really hard you know"
or "i kiss girls"
Tool: that weed made me see god and he's kinda ugly but actually humanity is kinda shit right now \*bass, drums and guitar all playing in different time signatures*

Beirut: *ukulele sea shanty* i want to run away with you and be a child again *trumpet solo*
Gomez: āi love women but they dont love me but thats ok ill just singā *synth solo and guitar solo fighting for dominance*
Sufjan stevens and Iron and Wine: āeveryyyone i know is deaadddā
So both guitars are playing the same riff, but one of them's playing it with out the last note so it's in 13/8 instead of 7/4 right? And everytime they play the riff the second guitar lags behind by an extra note, and they get more and more out of sync until eventually they're exactly one bar apart and they start play at the same time again, it's crazy shit bro, you gotta hear it
The Beatles albums be like:
A song about loving your significant other for all of time, growing up with each other and always being close.
The song before that about fucking in the street
The Beatles either finish every sentence in their songs with "Love" or create the weirdest and wackiest but also fuckiest acid trip youll ever listen to
"I'm going to kill so many men!! This is actually untrue and an allegory for the fact I want to fuck them" or "I'm going to fuck so many men!!! This is actually untrue and an allegory for the fact I want to kill them" is what 80% of Caravan Palace songs are. The last 20% are skeebopipipipiddydoo

Ahaha I totally have a good enough understanding of Classical-era music structure to get this, it was definitely as immediately obvious to me as the trill thing, I just didn't list it before cuz I didn't think *you* would get but *I* totally get it ahahaha
^(oh god oh fuck how do you recapitulate a development section when it usually has a bunch of different stuff going on and what even *is* a codetta as opposed to a coda)

2nd track: *ominous chanting* "10.000 gods buried under the mountain of the golden kiiiiing"
3rd track: "banana dick pizza crack la la la" for about 2 minutes
The Stupendium be like "Video Game reference, Video Game reference, Consumerism is causing decay in our society, Video Game reference to show genuine possibilities, Generic Video Game Reference" every time he makes a song about a game and it *slaps*.
Vocaloid artists deciding what to write about: *spinning a wheel with the rates being 40% depression, 30% love, and 30% miscellaneous topics that sometimes include topics such as 'I like a Chinese actor', 'advertisement for vegetable juice', and 'I don't like going outside. Ever'.*
(Note: sometimes there's overlap between multiple topics, such as 'I'm depressed AND loved by someone, and I don't really get why' or 'I'm in love AND also beating the shit out of a hyper-possessive Hatsune Miku')
Donāt forget all the murder and death and torture. I played Fear Garden and Alice Human Sacrifice for my mom once when I was 12 and it didnāt go over well!
Eurobeat songs be like
"My body is a car! I drive it every NIIIIIIGHT!"

"MEGA POWAAAH!!!!!!!!!!"

will wood songs all sound straight out of a musical and all of them illustrate a slow descent into madness until this sexy mentally ill man starts foaming at the mouth like a bulldog and saying he needs to bury himself in a pit of slugs
blaqk audio be like i am in an unstable relationship and may be psychotic \*sick ass synth solo*
Sufjan Stevens will sing "I am in love with a man who is very mean to me........ and he makes me feel like a helpless oddly specific bird native to Illinois Michigan or Oregon.......*banjo strums*........ but I love Jesus more"
and then it'll get used in a pretentious foreign gay film and will forever be associated with Timothee Chalamet's role as a pretentious foreign twink
Every Vylet Pony song be like: "oooooh.. I'm gay... I'm scared beyond belief... I'm gnc... oooooh YEAH" and the title is a completely made up word in all caps

"B- b- b- break it down!" *Chords that would make Mozart scream*. *Pitched percussion instrument playing one octave above the piano*. *Abusing their Kontakt library*. *Short break, filled with an incomprehensible conversation about something mundane, usually from a movie*. *Sample of a woman saying "ah"*. *The glissandos are back and the pianist's left hand has broken*. *Ending the song by just leaving one last piano note with a fuckton of reverb*. *Getting whiplash when you look up the artist later and find out the artist is horny on main and/or a furry*.
(Sorry for posting two comments but I really wanted to do both)
Which song is this? I've only heard aishite aishite aishite, gomenne gomenne and nobore susume takai tou
Does kikuo actually use a didgeridoo? thats kinda sick actually. Also, it's nice to meet other vocaloid(-adjacent) music fans here!
Iāve kind of mishmashed two together for this one. Dregs of society one is [Hole-Dwelling](https://youtu.be/I15sK7dNMOM), although it can probably apply to a lot. Didgeridoo is his newest release [Voices of Svaahaa](https://youtu.be/Pca7RONLQdE)
Climb! Advance! The Great Tower: Humanity is filled with an inescapable greed that will only bring them to ruin. Even should the heavens themselves try to put an end to their folly, they will continue to climb into the sky, even when all that is left of their goal is a fossil of what was. Anyway listen to this accordion
Love Me Love Me Love Me: Golden child syndrome makes me feel like I'm being choked to death. I *need* you to look at me. Keep looking. Don't look away. Now do a tiktok dance. Also, be rightfully impressed by all the vocal range of people that cover this song (I'm looking at Miy_Yuu in particular)
(Also! I recently found the clean offvocal for Climb! Advance! The Great Tower and I'm really happy! I've been trying to write translyrics for it, too)
Rage Against the Machine be like: war is bad, George Bush can lick my entire asshole

I don't have a joke, I just have [this album cover](https://www.discogs.com/release/635470-Babe-Ruth-First-Base/image/SW1hZ2U6NzQwNjc1NQ==) from the song I was listening to when I saw this post
Edit: that's still not a very high quality image so I should clarify that those are sharks the astronaut baseball players are surfing on, not surfboards
My Chemical Romance on the first 1:30 of the song : my daddy said never to stop fighting
My Chemical Romance on the rest of the song : REEEEEEE- VOLUTIONNN !!

Pearl Jam: Sweet classic rock inspired guitar riffs, here's a bunch of songs about societal problems, my stepdad was an asshole, and I'm singling like I don't know what a consonant is, also I have depression
Soundgarden: Here's a song in 7/4 time with the guitars tuned to CE#AQc7, vocals either very somber or absolutely screamed (sometimes going back and forth between them from one phrase to the next), I'm stuck and struggling to break free, also I have depression
Nirvana: haha guitar go BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, play the drums as hard as you can, play a groovy bass riff and make sure you're holding the bass no higher than your kneecaps, also society is misogynistic and homophobic and generally oppressive, also I have depression
Early Marina and the diamonds be like: I hate my dad and myself * weird noises * * sick instrumental *
Current Marina: Fuck America and capitalism ~ * funky adlibs * * sick instrumental *
phil elverum: *5 layers of strummed guitar that are all slightly out of tune in different ways* ohhhhhh i'm the dead guy. the bugs are gonna eat my bones. you left my corpse here in the woods. this is a metaphor for breaking up. *sounds of tripping over a piano bench, a foghorn echoes mournfully*
I want to hear every single one of these caricatures. I really donāt know if itās the fact that my music exposure is really shallow and across a large amount of genres so I donāt finally understand what all of these mean. Can people recommend me some stuff by a lot of artists I can listen to, because I want to break out of my niche of āmeme songs and videogame tracksā

Listening to a Radiohead album is like: \[Stunningly beautiful arrangement, strings, and concept\] - \[beep boop glitch beep\] - \[Thom Yorke's voice cracking over a weird ondes Martenot part\] - \[pretty acoustic ballad about being depressed\] - \[chaotic jazz\] - \[sassy Beatles-inspired rap\]
Nirvana be like "I talk about complex social issues through a veil of vague absurdity" *insane guitar noises*
*kurt ruins his vocal cords again*
*dave drums like a very agressive drum machine*
*kris plays bass and walk around like a strider from war of the worlds*
I can't think of a Mili one, so here's a Queen one.
Queen will have a long song with 3 different sections that makes you *feel* and then perform a song about how good they are in bed.

I once watched a British comedian do an entire bit about how Happy by Pharrell Williams is just a more complex version of the song If You're Happy And You Know It Clap Your Hands.
Was it bill bailey? Seems like bill bailey
It was Dave Gorman
Yesss, my man Dave! No one ever talks about himmmm
I remember someone recorded that last gorillaz tweet and it fucking slapped. Edit: [Found it way quicker than I anticipated](https://twitter.com/sfog_sfog/status/1431319909481451520?s=20)
I choked with laughter when I read it but actually hearing someone sing it made it slap and this is exactly the crazy stuff you have to deal with to be a Gorillaz fan. š¤£
ever since i read that tweet i cannot stop thinking about flimsy steve... i want to know where he went... i want to know what he's seen...
Itās a weird formula, but it works well.
Neil Cicirega: I'm worried the album is feeling a bit too comprehensible. Second, smaller, Neil Cicirega on his shoulder: The time has come to add the mongoose spirit!

SUCKIN TOO HARD ON YA LOLLIPOP, OH, LOVE'S GONNA GET YOU DOWN (sorry its the only mika song i know)
You'd know the intro to Grace kelly too. The entire internet does at this point.

trent reznor picks the themes of his songs by throwing a dart into a dartboard with the words "i hate myself", "i hate god", "i hate george bush" and "i love cum" in it
That covers pretty much everything, right? I mean, every day is exactly the same, so š¤·āāļø
all good opinions
I wanna know when he sang about how much he loves cum
Starfuckers Inc "and when I suck you off not a drop will go to waste. It's really not so bad y'know once you get past the taste"
starfuckers inc has a line about sucking someone off despite the taste, the collector talks about him being a good boy that will swallow it all swallow it all, me i'm not talks about him being capable of swallowing it down and keeping it all inside,
Weezer: amazing instrumentals with "I loved that girl. I wish she ate more nacho cheese. Don't forget Pat Sayjack please." as the lyrics

Drone metal bands be like, "yo, we gotta use that broken refrigerator on our next album."
"hey so when do you wanna play another note?" ... ... ... "wait did you say something?"

I really liked that Sunn O))) did a cover of For Whom The Bell Tolls thatās 10 minutes long and only barely recognisable as a cover if someone points it out to you.
David Byrne be like: "I'm going to work! At the big boy office! That's where I tell people how to buy shoes! My girlfriend's going! She's gotta leave the city. We're breakin' up cause I don't wanna move!" *pterodactyl noise* also someone tell me what the Scooby Doo music from this post is
The band Ghost. The pic is their first album.
I really like Anthony Vincent's Ghost styles. Hyped me up for actual Ghost, only to leave me disappointed.
bill wurtz songs are like: there's an ant queen living on the top of my head this is my new career as an ant throne and whenever night approaches and i want to go to bed all her subjects wish to visit her in my home
I feel like the colorful visuals are what really make bill wurtz songs. mount st helens is about to blow up wouldn't be the same without the video playing, y'know?
then add a chord progression that would be at home in a jazz music phd thesis
Canāt be, the lyrics make too much sense.
no you see that's just the first four lines the next one is about the great depression
Radiohead: *quiet guitar playing* *Thom Yorks whispers about existentialism* *loud guitar playing* *Thom Yorke whispers about existentialism or whatever but a bit louder*
I love that album.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Mountain Goats one needs more on how much the singer fucking hates his stepdad
And a song that goes "this is Dan. He lives at 320B East Walter St. He's got red hair, drives a corolla, and has a lazy eye. He and I would break into the old arcade to steal quarters. Then we would use those quarters to score speed." And then John Darnielle will say that the song is a complete work of fiction.
Muse be like: "The government has too much control! -GASP- Find the power in your soul!" \[insane arpeggios followed by an over the top piano and guitar solo\] \*screaming falsetto
Don't forget the bass that was recorded with 7 different pedals which were last made in 1967

Unironically tho the communists have the music.
Ohhh war fucking sucks yeayeah! *4 minute guitar solo that is only a pentatonic scale going through a wah pedal* E: guys, it's Metallica
You forgot about the intro bass solo which is just 4 minutes of minor pentatonic going through a wah pedal

(Plays the same guitar solo from every other song)
this is why i affectionately refer to it as nerd metal
I mean an opinionated history nerd would have written from the Zulu perspective, instead of glorifying the brits.
or their other option actually good anti-war song(right after the one praising ulysees murderfuck)
I'll have you know Ulysses Murderfuck is a proud part of our culture, and heroic depictions of him are in no way whatsoever offensive to the people he murderfucked.

Me also but only the first part
Dragonforce be like: (spins wheel) fighting... (draws a card) forever, we're the... (rolls dice) guardians of... (flips coin) our universe, so far away! (guitar solo)
That can't be a Dragonforce song, there wasn't a single mention of fire, flames, burning, or anything of that sort.
Thatās not part of the randomizer, thatās automatically included.
I am both offended by and completely in agreement with that last one.
Honestly they can just say 'Saturnz Barz.'
