NotA. John Cale's version is best (the version heard in Shrek). It's his voice, really. :-P
Also, it's strange being told that if I have all of #26 then I'm a hipster as I coincidentally am listening to it on vinyl ;-) |
Jethro42
06.08.11 | Yeah in French it would be something like 'frais chié' or 'quelqu'un qui se prend pour un autre', or 'parvenu'. I'm gonna find the exact term one day.

Pretentious is a word in the English language. "Attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed." It technically can't be over used. It's used correctly or it isn't in great abundance... or not.
Perhaps the term hipster comprises the word pretentious but they are not exclusive to one another. In other words fuck with hipsters and the word hipster all you want but it has nothing to do with the word pretentious. I simply find your statement odd in it's phrasing and really don't feel it makes much sense but I'm really hung over so maybe my mind just isn't working very well today? |

07.13.11 | How does any of this have to do with being a hipster?
You guys... And your lack of knowledge of the meaning of words...
I seriously doubt there are hipsters on Sputnik. Hipsters are people who do things because they want to look cool/edgy/(and I cannot emphasize this enough) *HIP* and not because they enjoy said things.
So uhh some of this music (Bon Iver, Neutral Milk Hotel) are stereotypically bands used by the Hipster to look cool... But that does not make them "Hipster" bands.
If anything, the indie music thing is either an attempt at irony or to look like a "geek."
That's what hipsters do to look cool now: it's why "nerds" are "in fashion" right now. |
BigHans
07.13.11 | So uhh some of this music (Bon Iver, Neutral Milk Hotel) are stereotypically bands used by the Hipster to look cool... But that does not make them "Hipster" bands.
