Killer Whale Tank Wrote:That might be the most laughably inept line Gord ever perpetrated. To hear how ludicrous it is, try saying it aloud, imagining you're speaking to someone. The effect is comical.You have some super weird reasons to hate Hip songs but this one takes the cake. The line isn't good because it would be out of place spoken aloud to someone? Do you honestly feel that first person point of view lyrics should sound realistic...in a SONG?
Killer Whale Tank Wrote:But I have no problem in principle with the Hip writing a lighter-tinged pop song now and then. Hell, I love 'Coffee Girl,' another song unjustly crapped on by Hip fandom for reasons that elude me. Unlike 'In View,' that one is produced properly and sounds great.Try saying "Hey there Coffee Girl, beautiful and disaffected" aloud, imagining you're speaking to someone.
