we wont ban you if you acknowledge that thom yorke put LDR on the map

 

do you realize how fucking stupid and childish you sound?

 

.

Can we ban him now please?

out of line?

and who are you or anyone else here to make that call?

it's not your fucking art so mind your own fucking business.

no one here is in any position to say whether or not the lawsuit is just.

XD.

yeah and  almost everyone here agrees that it is out of line so youre just preaching to the choir. it's not evil though dont be ridiculous. arguably more people have seen this song because of the lawsuit. you should be thanking thom yorke. 

agreed.

Good? It's a masterpiece. I really didn't like it the first time I listened to it, mostly due to certain lyrics. Mish Way from White Lung wrote a great essay on Lana and how the complexity of her lyrics is overlooked. http://www.talkhouse.com/mish-way-white-lung-talks-lana-del-reys-ultraviolence/

 

Lana's bad-taste lyrics are truly on point and punk in a way indie and alt rock never dares to be now. But at the same time imo Lana overcame all the limitations of punk and alt rock to express a sense of agency and freedom that owes more to the '60s-70s counterculture and '50s beats. She's created a synthesis of everything that was good about hippies and everything that was good about punks, leaving out all the things that weren't good about either one.

 

Get Free is part of this with its rewriting of Neil Young's lyrics, from black to blue. I wonder if that's what Thom really took offense to.

They're just embarrassing Lana.  

The lyrics make me cringe.

Lana del Ray also did a song called national anthem

It’s beyond awful

Not at all.

 

I've never heard of anyone who enjoys spending time in court, even defending against a frivolous lawsuit they should be likely to win. Radiohead are very rich and they are very litigious (even five years ago they forced then tween Willow Smith to remove a not-for-profit song from soundcloud that sampled Codex) and any lawsuit they launch, no matter how frivolous, could be dragged out for a long time.

 

yeah will smith's daughter is like really poor n stuff

pretty sure this is all colin's fault

well a spokesperson from warner said

As Radiohead’s music publisher, it’s true that we’ve been in discussions since August of last year with Lana Del Rey’s representatives. It’s clear that the verses of “Get Free” use musical elements found in the verses of “Creep” and we’ve requested that this be acknowledged in favour of all writers of “Creep.” To set the record straight, no lawsuit has been issued and Radiohead have not said they “will only accept 100%” of the publishing of “Get Free.”

Radiohead is getting back at Lana Del Trash for doing H&M adverts. Profiting off pimping fast fashion? Just disgusting. Dem boys are gonna take that cash and save a thousand miles of rainforest or some shit.

 

Just like the Israel thing. They saw citizens supporting an imperialist regime and they said “these guys need to hear 2+2=5 ASAP”

XD

how is it not relevant its like the exact same thing happening

im 99% sure that it's actually till

good retort.

 

 

oh and of course i know about The Hollies.

people keep bringing that up in these discussions as if it's relevant.

it isn't.

well it is in the sense that it was a similar situation

fuckface

When the beta band released squares there was another song by a band called 'eye monster' i think and both songs are pretty much based around the same sample, but they just happened to release around the same time. I dont think there was any court cases or anything though.

i dont think funnyhaha knows about the hollies
