[Haiku Rewrites]

05. Joan Collins Stuck In A Sculpture - Lene - Pretty Young Thing

 

[dmlaw]

Fai Fighters is outstaying its welcome a bit.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

For a terrible moment I thought we were getting a Christmas song

 

[Kate]

Just spotted #12

 

[Kate]

Bursting into song while someone’s doing your lippy seems a TAD RUDE

 

[Kate]

WAIT is this Lene from AQUA?!

 

[RJN]

Something about this melody makes me want to cry

 

[RJN]

WAIT is this Lene from AQUA?!

yes

 

[Kate]

It’s shit, anyway

 

[ButterTart]

What's your favourite Lene Nystrom lyric? Mine's from Turn Back Time

"I will always have a crusty weeble
The boat reminds me I was dead"

 

[ButterTart]

I'm enjoying the seamless use of the phrase 'justice of the peace' here.

 

[Kate]

Doctor Jones turning in his grave as we speak

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

06. Fear of fucking ghost Megazord statues - Omnia & Cathy Burton - Searchlight

 

[ButterTart]

BANGER.

Having said that, I think I put this in one of my Proper Trampy Trance playlists so it would appear we have a plagiarist on our hands.

 

[RJN]

Sophie Ellis Bextor?

 

[Kate]

Oh look it’s the ButterTrance entry

 

[ButterTart]

Sophie Ellis Bextor?

I can definitely hear that

 

[ButterTart]

The guitar at the end is such a splendid treat.

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

07. Trauco, a humanoid creature responsible for any unplanned or unexplained pregnancies. - Seba Campos & Maria Papageorgiou - Pandora

 

[Kate]

Oooh. This is UNUSUALLY GOOD for a Greek entry

 

[ButterTart]

Twinky twonky guitar? Surname that looks like an explosion in the vowel factory? Lads, we've got our Greek entry for this round.

 

[ButterTart]

Yeah, this is quite the spicy meatball

 

[ButterTart]

Enjoying the footage of her RED HOT RING.

 

[Kate]

Yeah, this is quite the spicy meatball

With tangy feta and hummus on the side

 

[RJN]

Enjoying the footage of her RED HOT RING.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I'm enjoying this too!

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

08. The Roy Dog of Portland - Jenn Champion & OYSTER KIDS - Love Nobody

 

[ButterTart]

'Jenn'? Either go by Jen or Jenny, don't give me this noncommittal fuckery.

 

[Kate]

Oooh this is sounding great as well

 

[ButterTart]

Perfectly cromulent thus far.

 

[dmlaw]

This last run of three songs has been very fine.

 

[Kate]

The now standard ASFM summery synthy bop. And I’m not complaining.

 

[Kate]

Love a sneaky steel drum

 

[RJN]

I was going to say this was generic ASFM, but it does have a big pop chorus

 

[ButterTart]

Love that it just stops suddenly

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

09. The emotion is nothing - The Revivalists - Wish I Knew You

 

[ZenGiraffe]

No.

 

[Kate]

Song - meh.
Old people love story -

 

[ButterTart]

The hair and hat would each be distressing on their own, but in combination they're an act of violence. Is he off to fight the roundheads?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I'm running from this song mate.
