Remember when we used Saddam Hussein to fight a proxy war against Iran, and it killed a million people, and the CIA gave him sarin gas and told him when and where to use it, and then he said "You care if I invade Kuwait? I'm a broke lil bitch" and we said "Nah you're good MURDER"
Make no mistake, with Poppy dead – and if he's not in hell, then there has never been a hell – the CIA would internally re-elect Obama every 4 years. The Smart Kids in Class. The Data Whisperers. We want to make the right call ... at the right time ... for the right people.
And as a general matter, but specifically against that background, if you can take all of Obama's "work as a community organizer" with a straight face, you're a happier and dumber man than me. They found a black Poppy Bush who could give a speech. They were in heaven.
Yeah it was the bloodiest war from World War II until our second invasion of Iraq, by a strict definition of "war," bearing in mind that the CIA-orchestrated coup in Indonesia killed a couple million people, minimum, and Africa, "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner," fog of peace
Elliott Smith was also a huge Big Star fan, and often covered "Thirteen" from their first album. A lyric like "Take care not to hurt yourself / and beware of the need for help / because you might need too much / and people are such ... take care."

And this is maybe the #1 homage/fuck off to The Who, right down to that squelchy envelope filter on the bass. Record this "right," arrange it like normal people do, and it's a "Who Are You?"-level staple, in every encore – so, of course, Alex deigns not

Most of the drug-trouble stuff I know about Alex was drinking, but he hit the music industry at like 14, so I imagine he ran into everything at least once – I would put this high on a list of junk songs. Please, drive slow forever, so nothing can hurt me

"Kanga Roo," the one Jeff Buckley often did – could be huge now, nearly put Alex Chilton in an asylum then. And the fucking album cover: Chilton (L, elbow resting on a Mellotron) & drummer Jody Stephens (R), but why does Jody looked pasted-in afterward?

That's a pretty neat rebus for THIRD: it'll go from sounding broken, done-in, even exploitative, to incredibly sharp, from a shambolic song about being trashed while driving to a punctilious song about the birth of Christ, and you have NO idea what, if anything, is sincere
OK, hold on, Marco Rubio KNOWS how to spell "discreet"
