Kim loves rivers
 

I was just thinking... Kim sort of mentions rivers a lot in her songs? Maybe it's not that many, but...

The Sprawl "out back was the river"
Nevermind "come on down, down to the river"

and I remember when I saw them live at the pool a month ago, Kim was singing something like "won't you take me down to the river" in one of the new songs.

interesting? sorta?

Rivers Cuomo? Yeah. Who doesn't love Rivers.

Yeah Rivers is a pretty swell dude. He gets a lot of flack for those who think that Weezer have defected (which they have) but he seems aware that Weezer isn't like they used to be.

Pinkerton kicks so much ass!

Yeah, it's widely known among SY fans that Kim loves rivers while Thurston is more of a sea person:


Theresa's Sound World ("light blue vibration through the sea")

Helen Lundeberg ("daybreak by the sea")

The Diamond Sea ("......")

Wait, that didn't make sense AT ALL!

you beat me to the bad joke.

Pfft Blue album blows Pinkerton out of the water. I can't believe how much Weezer fans overrate Pinkerton. It's good, but no where near Blue album good.

^ word.

...yeah and maybe Lee loves mountains and Steve loves deserts, who knows???!!!

this thread BEGS for some photoshopped Kim & Rivers pics.

Yeah, I noticed similarities between Mars and Nevermind too.
In Nevermind, "girls go to Mars," and "come down to the river."

pretty neat

i love the blue Lp and Pinkerton. the rest is meh.

It's weird. I thought this would be funny. But since you made it an SYR, I kind of wish it was real. I'd probably like it more than SYR5!

Pinkerton's way better.

But the b-sides to the Blue album are the best.

Paperface, hell yeah.

I think BLUE ALBUM and PINKERTON are pretty much a tie. But yr right, the BLUE BSides are probably the best work of the band's career.

really?
gotta get'em!!!

greedrex, they're on the Universal Deluxe Edition release of the BLUE ALBUM. Seriously, "Jamie," "Suzanne," etc etc. So much good stuff.

Jamie is the best two chord strummer I have ever heard.....

Yeah it is.

Mykel and Carli is my favorite Weezer song...

yeah i know, a friend of mine made me listen to the second disc of the deuxe edition. I do know Jamie which is awesome, but the rest didn't strike me as better then the LP itself, but I should give it another go cuz there seems to be consensus here...

susanne is one of my favorite songs as well.

she really loves rivers...cool... i prefer lakes.

Calming The Snake

Come on down,down to the river Come on down I want to feel you shiver
Dark on the edges,golden on top
Floatin down the river Yr so hot
Oh oh oh oh oh ooh
[repeat]

Come on down,down to the river
Come on down I want to feel you shiver
The sight of death is sure to deliver,
Come on down I want to hear you quiver
Oh oh ooh
Corpses' drapery
Rusting,sliding,sliding,
Sliding
Endless

nah man STEVE loves desserts 'n doughnuts
just sayin

kim: rivers
thurston: seas
lee: joni mitchell
steve: baked goods

I still think that Steve prefers pizza a la titanium expose video.

but yeah, i have noticed kim's thing with rivers before. i was actually thinking about that in the car ride earlier.

^quoted for truth.

back on topic. kim luvs rivers SO much that tasmania/australia even named one after her- its called the gordon river and its gorgeous. true story.

and don't forget "cross the breeze".

"let's go, walk along the water."
definately could be a river

water is used as imagery by many artists, def not specific to sonic youth. also they do always do a great job with lyrics.

Hahaha

hahaha that is gold right there. Also fuck Weezer and listen to Pavement, thanks.

EDIT: My, Kim looks delicious in that photo.

I would actually buy this. Even though I'm not a big fan of Weezer

i thought lee was obsessed with cities
