going all in on a disco homage with some of the greatest musicians from the era sounds like a fine and dandy idea on paper. but when the execution is as scatter shot and self indulgent as this, it becomes less of an homage and more of just a shitty attempt at a disco album. i would argue that justice already executed this much much better. as they brought prog and the sounds of the 80s into their style where daft has done the opposite and brought splashes of their style to run of the mill disco songs. and as far as cheesy lyrics and such, digital love and something about us are cheesy in the best way possible. these songs are cheesy to the point where they sound like muzak and thats not a good thing at all. you would never listen to touch or fragments of time if they didnt have the daft punk tag on them. and if u want to prove me wrong i expect u to be a huge michael mcdonald and the alan parsons project fan now.
what marketing department thought this would be a good place to advertise the justin beiber christmas album? with a contest to win a signed guitar? where the hell am i?
fun story: i tried out for the real world about 3 years ago now? and it was right after the chris brown, rihanna thing, and it was a table of me and 8 girls and i made some off handed remark which i thought to be funnny at the time, needless to say i was asked to leave the casting call #highlightofmylife
the pat down by huell was really the only time that the cigarette could have been taken, as jesse switched his pack in the morning. I could see it as walt making a play to get jesse on his side to help kill gus again....think about it....
weirdly enough i think being so into breaking bad over these past few months, has almost ruined other shows because i always expect these incredible plot developments and character studies....
