Aug. 4th, 2008 08:48 pmThings I have been thinking about today:
Patrick Stump has an incredibly gorgeous voice. This is no surprise, I know, but it really is lovely, and he's always involved in really interesting projects, too. Definitely a guy worth keeping an eye on, and I cannot stop listening to that Timbaland song featuring Fall Out Boy. However, I prefer Panic to Fall Out Boy, and indeed to any other bandom band I've listened to.
See, when you're listening to most of the music it's... pretty obvious. By the second run through you're singing along no trouble, because there's really never all that much question about where the song's going to go. With PatD, there's always something unpredictable about the rhythm or the run of notes so it takes a little more concentration or focus to get what they're doing. Everything sounds right, but a more interesting right than the one you might have come up with. They also have that Smiths thing of continuing to sing when you feel the line should have ended, which I've always liked. So yeah - my slightly more intellectual reasoning than OMG JON WALKER IS SO AWESOME!!!!111!!
(He totally is.)
Third thing - I cannot watch an entire episode of Smallville. I feel bad about it because I know people do like it, but... Tom Welling saps all life from the screen. The only things worth watching on that show seem to be the Luthors, and I don't do incest. I would really really like to hear what people like about it because I'm genuinely bemused.
I'm having massive trouble spelling today. No matter how I reformulate words on the screen they don't seem to make sense. Pool and ale is clearly a bad combination for me and I shall keep that in mind.
Finally - I'm... edging closer to formulating a plan for next year. It has the potential to be interesting.
