octy's MIDNIGHT MASS(ACRE) - 11pm, 24th December 2020

[COB]

Feeling emotional to this

 

[Iguana]

Aaw this is proper lovely. I love Ella's voice

 

[octophone]

Now THIS is making me feel right festive.

The midnight/mass/acre bit is the first hour..then about 30 mins of outright festiveness.

 

[octophone]

St Vincent - MASSeduction



As suggested by Iggy; a live take with Annie Clarke on top form

 

[Tisch]

This is lovely! And I appreciate the shift and that it's not all bangahs. I need some peace before Christmas day.

 

[COB]

I really can't get on with her

 

[Kate]

Annie is so fucking COOL.

 

[Iguana]

Yay it's my suggestion! :emoji_tropical_drink:

 

[octophone]

I want one of her special guitars but they're over a grand each.

 

[ButterTart]

Ooh, I'm not familiar with this one, either! I feel like I SHOULD know it, mind.

 

[RJN]

The drummer's face covering

Of course St. Vincent is awesome as always

 

[Kate]

Trussed up in a big festive green condom.

 

[Tisch]

Masseduction is GREAT as is the whole album. It's been my first (and only really) introduction to St. Vincent

 

[RJN]

Ooh, I'm not familiar with this one, either! I feel like I SHOULD know it, mind.

The whole album this came from is totally worth it to listen to

 

[octophone]

I hate to be shallow but she's fucking gorgeous here as well.

 

[Jark]

other than Fast Slow Disco which I'm predictably obsessed with, and New York which is lovely, I don't really "get" St. Vincent either. but I think I need to TRY MORE.

 

[octophone]

The wonderful Kamasi Washington on sax.

Jessie Ware - Midnight



Last minute addition, due to her being a known Moopy favourite.

 

[RJN]

other than Fast Slow Disco which I'm predictably obsessed with, and New York which is lovely, I don't really "get" St. Vincent either. but I think I need to TRY MORE.

If you want something heartbreaking, listen to Happy Birthday, Johnny

For something a little less bleak, Los Ageless

 

[COB]

This is MUCH MORE LIKE IT.

 

[Jark]

If you want something heartbreaking, listen to Happy Birthday, Johnny

For something a little less bleak, Los Ageless

I liked PILLS!

PILLS! PILLS! PILLS EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK

 

[ButterTart]

Jessie Ware never sounds the way I expect her to. There's a bit more meat on the bones than I think there will be.

 

[RJN]

I liked PILLS!

PILLS! PILLS! PILLS EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK

Good to know, but what songs do you like?

 

[Tisch]

Yes JESSIE! Listened to this just today. It still FUCKS. Moopy say this is her worst album but they're all wrong.

 

[octophone]

Jessie Ware never sounds the way I expect her to. There's a bit more meat on the bones than I think there will be.

She's got a heck of a set of pipes on her.

 

[octophone]

TWO SONG ALT/INDIE SEQUENCE COMING UP

 

[Iguana]

Jessie Wares the soap
Does doesn't it?

 

[Jark]

Midnight is certainly an outré choice.

one of a small handful of Jessie songs I really cannot vibe with

 

[octophone]

Jessie Wares the soap
Does doesn't it?

Oh dear.

 

[ButterTart]

It still FUCKS

I've not seen this phrase used recently. I'm glad it's made a comeback for a Christmas special.

Pixies - U-MASS



Great live version of this track from the last album of their original run. This song was a favourite of David Bowie....I wonder if that was because he caught the resemblance to...

 

[COB]

I don't think I've never said on Moopy but I LOVE THE PIXIES

 

[Rita]

Just popping in to say HEY!

Love Bowie's cover of Cactus too

I brought it back recently in the Eurovisionagain thread last week. It's not quite had its day yet.

 

[COB]

Also in the absence of our Zu I'm going to say the obvious. Frank Black... just fuck me up pal.

 

[octophone]

Just popping in to say HEY!

HELLO! Hope you're having an ace night.

 

[RJN]

The Pixies are a band that I know I should know, but I just don't (yet)

 

[ButterTart]

Just popping in to say HEY!

Rita's here, crack open the good Sourz

 

[octophone]

I don't think I've never said on Moopy but I LOVE THE PIXIES

I absolutely loved them on their first run. Amazing run of albums.
