Thinner than the facade of intelligence on a Kansas school board member??

   ((( Agora 35 linked as Music 121 at mynxcat's request, though 
       perhaps a discussion of ferns would better go in the garden
       conference... )))

        I'll second that.

        It's interesting the way that music videos have brought subculture
fashion into the mainstream - and when you've got a store in the mall that
sells subculture fasion clothing, it's become mainstream - but not the
attitudes or music of the subculture itself.

        The last time I was watching music videos, there was a girl there who
made some comment to a Bright Eyes video along the lines of "oh, yay, punk
rock" - I'm sure I shot her a dirty look over that - and then proceeded to
lay into the next video over the lead singer's pop-punk attire, which would've
been laid into at the club for not being really punk at all.

resp:0  That is soo not true.  Go back to like music2 or 3, Sapna.  I 
put in at least two items on music vids.

resp:1  Do you mean Outta My Head?  I didn't see that video, but I saw 
the MTV Music awards presentation of it, so, yeah, same kind of dancers.

resp:30 Gothish?  Okay, but Pink strikes me as anything but goth, even 
there.  I kinda thought she was new wave meets hip-hop.. so how do you 
get Goth outta that?

resp:2 Speaking of commercials and 80's new wave, anyone remember an 
really old Caramello commercial?  You know, "Stttreettch it out, out.. 
Chocolate.. and Car-a-mel.."  I haven't seen these aforementioned TV 
ads, but that's the first one I saw that positively screamed "old 
school MTV" to me.

I *did* see Dirty Vegas's "Days Go By" reasonably recently.  
Interesting.  Very interesting to see "poppin'" and other breakdance 
moves come back.  The Mitsubichi Eclipse makes a cameo in the video; of 
course, the music was used for its own ad.  How much did the car 
company pay in that arrangement?

         Re #32:  Watch the video.  What she's wearing isn't what I'd consider
"goth", but it fits the term in the popularly used sense.

I'd go with Gothish for just like a pill.  (Interesting, because the music
is actually sort of light and peppy.)

        Surprisingly, there's light and peppy goth music:

        I am in no way responsible for the 80s hair.

        Any relation to Cheerrie-Ose?

...and a lot of old goth stuff sounds pretty light and peppy nowadays. 
Siouxie and the Cure are both pretty sticky-sweet compared to most of the
recent goth stuff I've heard.  

(Why does it not surprise me that this alleged "light and peppy goth music"
is from Sweden?)

resp:36  Poodle cuts should DIE, yes, but what's wrong with 80's hair?

to return the topic back to an earlier thread, what commercials can you 
think of that run like a commercial?

The Foo Fighters spoofed the original Mentos series of commercials in 
one of their videos-- backwards example, yes, but..
