Jon H.

Same as what happened to Macklemore.

(not to wade into that Discourse again...)

And as for Sombr, Todd put him at #1 in his Best Hit Songs of 2025 video. You should watch that.

(It's OK, I haven't heard of him outside of that either. 🙂)

But you live in LA now! I don't even have that point of reference!

Would Eminem's "Just Lose It" qualify?

Plus extremely white, but that's beside the point. 😂

No, they're in the tank for MAGA too, aren't they?

So like the Metallica sampling on "American Badass?"

Yeah, that tracks.

I hated that Latto song for the same reason (among others).
Sampling Mariah Carey's "Fantasy" sampling Tom Tom Club's "Genius of Love."

You say "broke the Boomer streak" like it was a good thing. BEP was by far the worst one of the lot.

Probably bought them out.

Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

And even /that/ I only know because of a certain video essay.

"Wheeeeee...."

I remember "Silver Springs" finally getting its due as a live single in 1997, but didn't know "Landslide" did too.

Born in 1983, and same.

(I guess mine were the only Boomer parents that *didn't* own any Fleetwood Mac?)

Really, ChatGPT is just giving you a luxury experience that is normally only accessible to the rich and powerful -- the experience of filling your life with butt-kissing and sycophancy until you completely lose touch with reality.

Pluto TV (owned by Paramount, who also owns MTV) has multiple music video channels--with the Vevo branding.

Just goes to show you how far MTV has fallen...

And both are predated by "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)"

NGL, I still cringe a little whenever any news from it is posted in any of my Discord servers.

I should take a drink each time a song references "Jingle Bells"!😂

Daisuke "Pixel" Amaya (the only guy behind Cave Story)

Ew.

I still kind of cringe when I hear someone call an AI voice like Siri or Google Assistant "her."

Ask me again in 2+ years.

I do like that song, but why?

Why not She & Him's Christmas album?

This is literally the first I'm hearing of that song.

...I've never been this far away from home?

I only know this album because its single "She Won't Dance With Me" was the third--THIRD--video ever played on MTV, after The Buggles and Pat Benetar.

The Content Must Flow!

...Ugh.

Great, now I'm imagining "Rocking Around the Christmas Tree" over "Yaketty Sax" 😂
