    Hope to God someone up there in Kentwood can read…

    There is quite a bit of overlap between our musical tastes. But, After the Glitter Fades is not the best song on Bella Donna. Bella Donna is the best song on Bella Donna. Fact.

  • So what’s up with this nasty, ad-hominem HateEmilyHate that Emily Twittered?

    First off, one could point put to “Matthew Lawrence” that it’s “hoity-Toity,” NOT “hoity-hoity.” But if you’re gonna drag out precious, fey adjectives then at least get it right.

    But that’s not important (and don’t “grammar-police” me, either, please…guilty!)

    What’s interesting (to me) is that someone, somewhere, thought it was time to write a 377-word review of a review, and that by doing so he(?) might put this who-does-she-think-she-is? Gould woman IN HER PLACE.

    Well done Matthew Lawrence!

    So who CARES about his vitriolic opinion? I say this not to dismiss it out of hand–perhaps it has its place in the constellation of chatter that permeates the web–but what moved him to express it in the first place?

    At least Gawker, Perez Hilton, et. al., sell a product comprised of this trash-talking nonsense. Their motivations are clear, and if people buy it, it’s THEIR problem. But…this guy? What’s his angle?

    This is the part about the internet (and about people in general) I’m still trying to figure out.

  • I’d also suggest Unwritten Law’s “Shoulda Known Better.” Wait, that would probably be more suited to K Fed.

    loved this. now someone just needs to make her the actual mix. but why did you leave off poet laureate liz phair?

  • I am aware that it is hoity-toity. That was a typo, probably overlooked due to all the rage and vitriol.

    But I’ll go fix that now…

    @s: I had ‘can’t get out of what i’m into’ on there originally

    I read an article a long time ago about how Courtney and Bill Corgan were obsessed with Fiona Apple circa the Criminal years. I think they just wanted to get inside that maudlin-echo-chamber-brain of hers and….and I don’t remember really, but they probably wanted to make her explode or something.

    Also, is it just me or is the theme of bittersweet success in “After the Glitter Fades” kind of echoed in Britney’s “Lucky?

    You know, the whole “Timeless face of a rock and roll woman while her heart breaks…”
