Kim Gordon's Affectation of an English Accent on Making the Nature Scene live...
 
...as heard on the live at Battery Park NYC LP. Are you pro or anti this vocal delivery?
I was initially anti myself, I thought it was a tad ridiculous. But I listened to it today and found it so delightfully hilarious I couldn't help but adore it.

Interesting poll dude... I generally roll with the Kim.

whats this aboot like?

I'm sure she's tired of singing it normally, so whatever else works for her is fine with me. I personally like it a lot.

Also, is it just me, or is Thurston's delivery on She Is Not Alone from that album purposefully Jandek-ish?

Diesel 08.01.2009 05:46 PM

I hope it's not because Jandek is a big pile of wank..

If Americans can put up with almost every British singer affecting their accent, the least we can do is tolerate it when it happens the other way around.

What is a big pile of wank to you is another man's seventh heaven... actually isn't that the same thing as a wank ?

Diesel 08.01.2009 05:53 PM

I've shat better songs than Jandek

Diesel 08.01.2009 06:04 PM

I'm pretty sure i'd put on an accent for a song i'd been singing for years on end..

EMULASION put a spell on you...

My pal's always maintained that there are similarities in vocal delivery between early Sonic Youth and Jandek.

Maybe because I don't play gigs?

Rainy day in NYC. Boo-hoo. I need Kim Gordon's freaky English accent to make me feel better.
