Great artists! And speaking out the  truth!  Vamos ¡

I think I could use Placebo as a filter. Don't like them? Fine f**k off. Next.
Posted 8 months ago by glowworm    [ Reply ]
Seen them live at pukkelpop in Belgium about ten years ago. My girlfriend at the time had never heard of Placebo, but since I was already a big fan, we were in the front of the crowd. They were magnificent, and my girl (who was not much of a rock-fan) was completely blown away by the sheer brilliance. 

It was a good day... 
Wish I could go back in time to be there once again. Sometimes I do.

Screw all you haters of Placebo, for whatever reason it is. They rock. I don't care how Brian's vocals are, what they are or what they appear to be. I met them after a concert years ago and they are very friendly and genuine. Get over yourselves.

without looking, i can pick placebo out every time because of the whiney voice. this one is a little better than beautiful james, which for me is really, really annoying.

Good song, though I imagine several of the negative reviews would disappear if Bill could mix "Protect Me From What I Want" into a cleverly-themed playlist.

bought "Without you..." on the strength of the opener, Pure Morning, alone. I later realized that it was the only good song on the disk, teaching a valuable lesson about making sure to listen critically through whole albums before buying.

I'm sure they did, and it could be interpreted as a clever commentary on the state and role of music - something with no efficacy which yet affects its users because they expect it to be efficacious. (As it happens, there's considerable empirical evidence that placebos work in themselves, even when users know they're taking placebos - weird, or what? As they say in Yorkshire, there's nowt as queer as folk. )
