Music mindfuck fact: Before SNL, Chevy Chase was a drummer in a band. He thought he was bad, so he pursued comedy instead. His former bandmates, in turn, formed Steely Dan.

Do you wonder if Charli XCX ever turns to George and says "ha, we on some husband and wife shit"?

Fortnite accurately reporting the state of current pop music

Someone in r/popculturechat posted this image, and it perfectly encapsulates the feelings I have about Bruno Mars as an artist.

Maybe if songwriters actually take Sabrina's advice — especially about adding key changes and weird chord progressions — pop music will sound a billion times better in 2026. www.musicradar.com/artists/add-...

Listening to Sombr "Back to Friends" is like listening to The 1975, but without all the *gesticulates towards Matty Healy*

My most basic music opinion in November 2025 is that the auctioneer sample from that AJR song absolutely slaps.

My choices for the worst two seconds of the year in music: 1. "Did you girlboss too close to the sun?" 2. Any two seconds in "Wood" 3. "I can make deals with the devil because my dick's bigger." 4. "Pledge allegiance to your hands, your team, your vibes"

I read some obituaries with great pleasure.

I think the biggest appeal of Sombr is that they're like The 1975 without the problematic lead singer.

... So she's unchaining herself from the rhythm now?

I had a really weird dream last night. I dreamt that for some reason @shadowtodd.bsky.social was staying with my family for some reason. Despite my best efforts to talk music with him, he didn't wanna be my friend 😞 Bummer. I also called him "Brad" for some reason. Maybe that was why?

If I didn't know that "Tomorrow Never Knows" was by The Beatles, I'd swear up and down that it was a goddamn Chemical Brothers song.

Ava Max's "Sweet but Psycho" is Meredith Brooks' "Bitch" with all the soul and angst algorithmically removed from it.

To borrow from @shadowtodd.bsky.social, the Red Hot Chili Peppers don't sing about California as much as Morgan Wallen sings about whiskey.

If Robin Thicke can be successfully sued over a "vibe", then Def Leppard has a case against Shinedown for their song "365" sounding way too much like "Hysteria".

My activity for the past week: 1) Woke up 2) Got out of bed 3) Dragged a comb across my head 4) On my way downstairs I drank a cup 5) Looking up, I noticed I was late

"Let's go to Nice and give your sister a niece" is the worst 2 seconds in music in 2025 so far.

Lost in the Robbie Williams "Better Man" discussion is the fact that he released a song in late 2008 with the Pet Shop Boys called "We're the Pet Shop Boys" — and it hit #5 on the US Billboard Dance chart. "Rock DJ", by comparison, only hit #24 on the same chart.

Addison Rae "Diet Pepsi" sticks like a splinter in my brain because she does a DOWNWARD key change on her last chorus. Isn't she aware that Da Rules says you're supposed to go UP on a key change?!? Good song though.

According to the Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 year end chart, Dua Lipa won the "Battle of the Houdinis" this year -- her song came in at #14, while Eminem clocked in at #36. (Of course, Foster the People won the War of the Houdinis 13 years ago.)
