@eardrums Is it true that Spotify is limiting access to reduce bandwidth load b/c they’re losing money w/ each new listener? in reply to eardrums #

@derrick1792 OK Computer has better songwriting but it’s burdened by its context. What do you think? #radiohead #massiveattack in reply to derrick1792 #
So cool! Tho intrusive RT @dabitch: @thebandfrom That’s exactly the same idea as an award winning Dutch campaign last yr http://bit.ly/HFYrr #
@derrick1792 I like this game! How about REM-Murmur vs. The Replacements-Pleased to Meet Me #REM #thereplacements in reply to derrick1792 #
@derrick1792 Wow, i’m w/ u even tho Murmer is less fun. You set the bar high, picking 2 similarly excellent albums #REM #thereplacements in reply to derrick1792 #
@derrick1792 Also, loads of music owes Murmur some aesthetic royalties. Payment from Pavement is due. #pavement #REM #thereplacements in reply to derrick1792 #
@derrick1792 New Order. I actually prefer Interpol to joy Division b/c of the song writing. I’m not that alt… U? #Neworder #joydivision in reply to derrick1792 #

@derrick1792 THE SOUNDS. T(i)NC are untalented & spread malicious, ignorant hate. (cont) #thesounds #theinternationalnoiseconspiracy in reply to derrick1792 #
@derrick1792 I interviewed a t(i)nc bro, & he was incredibly ignorant yet preachy & stubborn. #thesounds #theinternationalnoiseconspiracy in reply to derrick1792 #
@derrick1792 #saharahotnights vs. #thesounds? in reply to derrick1792 #
@derrick1792 Yeah, t(i)nc is a long way from Refused. they worked w/ Rubin & sound worse than Blink 182 #tinc in reply to derrick1792 #
@derrick1792 Agreed! I think they deliver on what the Sounds promise, tho the sounds can be good, too. #saharahotnights in reply to derrick1792 #
Excellent! When do we get to watch/read? RT @KatrinaSzish: Just interviewed Diane von Furstenberg. She is like a cat. #
@derrick1792 =) I think your taste is more refined than mine, but i’ll take the implied compliment! #saharahotnights in reply to derrick1792 #
@adtothebone what does Swedish-Italian night entail? Concept sounds mycket buono. in reply to adtothebone #
@Denise_Cox what did the wise bouncer say? in reply to Denise_Cox #

Also, turns out there r influential ppl in fashion who’d go on TV giving props 2 Carine Roitfeld. Alas, she’s much cooler than the dumb show #
Fashion is only as dumb as the ppl reporting abt it. Miss Amy Spindler. OK, & yeah Galliano et al r ridiculous. #
@PigsAndPlans Yeah, I’d expect her 2 b more aware since she her own name is easy 2 pronounce yet “”"ethnic”"” (i coulda had a kh in mine 2) in reply to PigsAndPlans #

@chrisdeline hahaha It’s tricky to conjugate the verb “tweet”…. In this context, even “conjugate” sounds dirty. I woke up 12 yrs old. in reply to chrisdeline #
lol mayer had self control RT @chrisdeline: @thebandfrom and it doesn’t clean things up by saying something like “tweet the shit out of her” #
