Because I was too busy to do a POPFITE yesterday you get FOUR clashes today, to finish off the first round. In previous fites JARVIS won a convincing victory over CHRIS LOWE, and MICK JAGGER won out against HANK WILLIAMS.

As for today's fights, words cannot do them justice (i.e. I am starving and need to upload this and go get a sammich).

OK remove the bit about production. Indie is BOYS making SERIOUS music - Killers. Pop is GIRLS making FUN music - Ciara.

is there a marketing term that takes in the distinction between a "products" innate characteristics (or what the creators want to give it) and what its found audience brings to that product?

The Killers' music is not serious! 'somebody told me that you had a boyfriend who looked like a girlfriend that i had in february of last year it's not confidential i've got potential a rushing-a-rushing around' is a silly, stupid, fun line that is satisfying to sing along to, not a grand statement of epic proportions nor a whispered confession of one's truest inner feelings.

indie-disco indie, indie for BOYS of the kind of you hate most, is a lot about getting beered up and having a good time and having fun, and not serious at all.

The kind of indie you like - cat power, smog, etc - is, however, very often serious; that I will grant.

I thought we established yesterday that the difference between both is something to do with swamping the world in jizz?

i don't think The Killers are really proper FUN tho are they? they should do a straight-up party track where none of the lyrics have anything to do with romantic confusion/despair and emotional outpourings beyond 'let's get our 40s and ho's on and fuck shit up'
