| he's an artist. he can change songs however he wishes. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 3
|
| it was frustrating. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 5
|
| I think the uninitiated enjoying the show says something though |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 4
|
| it wasn't a bad show. it just could've been better. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 6
|
| the answer to your og question is no checks and balances |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 7
|
| this is sad to hear |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 8
|
| those songs were all originally PUNK songs |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 9
|
| ^ this is what i wanted. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 10
|
| oh ye, its to be expected im sure |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 11
|
 wow. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 12
|
 pretty much. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 14
|
| cool. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 13
|
| This is not a good look, imho |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 15
|
| why are yall so late picking this up with van though? |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 16
|
| well, I actually felt that way about him from jump |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 17
|
| I've never understood this |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 30
|
| i agree. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 32
|
| there's the argument that the music isn't presented honestly. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 34
|
| what's being "presented honestly" even mean? |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 36
|
| Milli Vanilli is an extreme example... |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 37
|
| To be honest, when the Milli Vanilli thing popped off |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 38
|
| It had no impact on me either |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 41
|
| Also, I should say I'm not mad at any artist |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 42
|
| But what if this is who he is? |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 45
|
| There's nothing wrong with that per se |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 54
|
| It all comes out in the wash |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 60
|
| he has always sounded more 80's pop/rnb than 70's soul though |
|
Jan 28th 2012 | 118
|
| It's not a matter of worrying about the intentions |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 35
|
| How does something sound dishonest? |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 40
|
| LOL how am I supposed to explain that to you? |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 48
|
| Which goes right back to expectations |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 57
|
| Seriously, I don't want to go deep into the Chromeo thing |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 58
|
| In fairness it wasn't just you |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 62
|
| LOL you're not alone, man. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 63
|
| Now I don't feel so bad |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 64
|
| I concur. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 65
|
| let me just add one last thing |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 66
|
| And I'll say one last thing also: |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 67
|
| Worded like that I can see your point |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 72
|
| this post makes me want to spin another |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 47
|
| You know what I'm saying? |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 55
|
| pls |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 59
|
| don't think I saw that... I'll go check it. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 61
|
| I agree with this. |
|

|
Oct 10th 2011 | 18
|
| i liked the 1st 3. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 22
|
| Oh, okay. This explains why you felt like you did lol !!! |
|
Oct 11th 2011 | 88
|
| based on what i've heard from him i figured he was going the other way. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 20
|
| This is how most people described Jungle Floor, if I recall. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 26
|
| the description felt 'unfair', but it was the best i could come up with. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 27
|
| he's a tad bit inconsistent though |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 24
|
| he and/or the label sold him as a dude who grew up w/a pimp daddy |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 19
|
| but since then... i don't know i've taken it as *him* |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 21
|
| i'm not sure what you mean. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 23
|
| just that I thought he was past the "is he being honest" phase |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 29
|
| ah. |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 31
|
| "Popular" & the new one at least SEEM his most honest |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 39
|
| Popular and What You Were Hoping For, seem like very honest.. |
|
Oct 11th 2011 | 89
|
| yeah... and he still defended the pimp daddy thing later |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 25
|
| it's not just that HE doesn't have an identity, |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 28
|
| I agree with this part... |
|
Oct 10th 2011 | 33
|
| I actually laughed that off, when he backtracked on that. I basically... |
|
Oct 11th 2011 | 90

|
| This is what happens when your core audience |
|
Oct 12th 2011 | 98
|
| not sure what Van's core likes about him could be called "packaged" |
|
Oct 12th 2011 | 100
