Chuss" Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2003 07:43:08 -0500 >>Cake - Fashion Nugget was da bomb! What happened after that???? >>I like their other stuff ok, but after seeing them live, I'm convinced the >>lead singer is obsessed with himself. hehe. Cake's - Comfort Eagle is one of the best CDs I've heard lately. I am in definite trouble of overplaying it. I kind of have two catagories of music I listen to. One is stuff that I am checking out and keep an open mind on. The other is stuff I like and want to hear again. Of all the new stuff I have been listening to so far I like Travis, and Brother. Of the stuff I want to hear again and like its Marcy Playground, Beatles, Chumbawumba, U2, 10cc, XTC. "Mink Car" and "They Got Lost" are also in that mix. The more I listen to them the more I like them. MC has a few definite sleepers in there. TGL is great. As for accordian music, IMHO the best CD for it (besides TMBG - of course) is Paul Simon's Graceland. I have always thought that Subliminal kind of "steals" from "Boy in the Bubble" with the accordian intro. I think J&J might have acknowledged that they do sound very simliar at one point or another. Pop in one CD and listen to the first few bars and then pop in the other and you'd see what I mean.

I'm new to the list so I thought I'd say hi. I've been a TMBG fan for a while (since the cartoon videos on Tiny Toon Adventures aired and made me go "Who's THAT?!") Here's a list of other bands/muscians I think that other TMBG fans might like: -- Five Iron Frenzy www.fiveironfrenzy.com -- Tom Waitts -- Truck http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/84/truckrock.html Doug Tennapel's Band (the guy who did Neverwhere and Earthworm Jim games... www.tennapel.com) -- Neil And Sky http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/478/neil__sky.html I wnet to College with these guys... we were in many shows together -- Luxo Champ http://www.hoppers13.com/rondelles/audio.html It's good someone mentiond Moxy Frovous... theyve got some good stuff... and in addition to actually covering "shoehorn with teeth", their music is constantly mistaken for TMBG's on the net. every time I see their rendition of "Spider-Man" downloadable as a TMBG song on KaZaA I wanna smack someone. anyhoo... I'm totally psyched up for "Gigantic" to hit my town (whenever/if ever it does)... I keep watching the listings at the Landmark Theaters. Is anyone else on this list from colorado? also... does anyone know if those B-Side albums that TMBG released on E-Music are still up (the untitled month albums)... I would really like do download them. if not does anyonethink they could burn me the MP3's? I'd totally pay for shipping and a CD. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Quite a few, especially in their earlier songs. If you were going to choose just one Fruvous song for the compilation, I would go with "BJ Don't Cry," which has an excellent accordion part (and is my favorite Fruvous song anyway). Jeremy Owen: >It's good someone mentiond Moxy Frovous... theyve got >some good stuff... and in addition to actually >covering "shoehorn with teeth" They covered it with DaVinci's Notebook, and the cover appears on DVN's first album. I don't know if Fruvous ever covered it by themselves or not, but a line from "The Statue Got Me High" does show up at the end of the recording of "BJ Don't Cry" on their Live Noise album. >their music is constantly mistaken for TMBG's on the net. Yeah, but so is the music of Barnes & Barnes and whoever did "I Am An Retarded." It seems like more songs get misattributed to TMBG and Weird Al than to anyone else. Incidentally, Weird Al and TMBG are the first artists I ever really got into, but I guess that's not really relevant.

Dig his solo stuff. It's awesome kinda folky cool stuff. Barenaked Ladies - a TMBG influenced band. check out their first album, "Gordon", and you'll be able to hear it. Barenaked Ladies use accordion in their songs a lot. I'm an accordoin/guitar player myself, and I like playing along with them. Also check out Long December by the Counting Crows.
