02.23.2009 the first song from tinted windows

Rolling Stone has the first single from "Tinted Windows", a band made up of James Iha from "Smashing Pumpkins", Adam Schlesinger from "Fountains of Wayne", Bun E. Carlos from "Cheap Trick" and Taylor Hanson from "MmmBop" and "MmmBop" remixes.  The band was formed when someone at a record label chose random names out of a hat. 

The song is called "Kind of a Girl" (you can hear it here).   It's pretty dark stuff.  The first two lines are, "she’s the kind of girl you can't get enough of, she's the kind of a girl need to feel the touch of".  Later we find out she's the kind of girl you can never let go.  It's like the entire thing was written with nothing but Hallmark refrigerator poetry.

    I’m looking for Hannah Montana doing a gook impression somewhere behind the drum set.

    Now that’s a real Stupor group.

    Someone wanna tell Mr. Bean to step out of the picture please?

    Even a blind man can see that Tinted Windows sucks. See what I did there? Well fuck you anyways.

    This is so contrived and irrelevant that I can’t even generate snark.

    I honestly don’t know how to insult it.

    If do good…is no defense.

    What does this have to do with tits, vagoo or ass?? Ahhhh, I get it, the cd IS ass.

    This is the first time I didn’t care to know what happened behind tinted windows…

    I’m ashamed with myself for the sparkle comment on the last thread so let’s just start over.

    Didn’t smashing pumpkins get back together? What’s this guy doing with Taylor Hanson?

  12. Tito's Abdomen 02/23/2009 12:59

    Even more important: I just found out that they did a remake of ‘Fame’. What the fuck? Fame? Fuck!

    MmmmmBop is a song I never want to hear again

    Taylor Hanson sort of used to look like a chick. Maybe DB can play this outside a local junior high and see if it gets him any pubescent pussy.

    Watt -

    No need to be ashamed of it.

    Apparently no one even noticed.

    the 80’s called and they want their skinny tie back

    I don’t know for sure, but I’m guessing that’s James Iha with the manga hair?

  18. Watt(Power) 02/23/2009 13:01

    Wonder if anyone jacked it to Taylor Hanson thinking he was a she back in the day.

  19. scum 02/23/2009 13:01

    Sulus in a band?

  20. DB's Treasure 02/23/2009 13:01

    Classy, junior high? I’m not into older chicks.
