this is the guy we tape to a chair and make him watch every christmas special known to man, as he has no soul. christmas will give you more soul than Barry White. or a swift round hosue kick to the arm. whichever one happens first.

My only question is:
What is the "art of musical"?

Obviously the EP was mistaken for a broadway soundtrack.

No, it's really obvious that this person didn't bother to listen to "The Escaping Song." You may not like it, but you certainly can't accuse that song of unoriginality.

That's what I figured. I mean, everytime I listen to Eisley I suddenly feel the urge to break into song in lieu of ordinary conversation.

I'm pretty sure this person only listened to the 30 second clips.

He mentioned not wanting to spend money on Eisley, and one would have to spend money if one wanted to listen to full songs on iTunes.

Just ignore the guy.

the white stripes are creative? puuum pumpumpum pum puuuum puuuuuum throughout the whole song is NOT creative. and artists are SUPPOSED to satisfy themselves.. THAT'S WHY THEY DO WHAT THEY DO.. cause they enjoy it. they're not there to serve the listener although some are kind enough *cough* eisley *cough* to do so. and i would MUCH rather listen to eclectic beats than puuum pumpumpum pum puuuum puuuuuum for two minutes straight. thend.

I'm sorry, but when you hear chorus lines of songs like Lost at Sea and One Day I Slowly Floated Away and say that's not creative, then all you can do is feel sorry for whoever said it.

Sad really..


"congratulations, cuz we've made it, all the way home"?? is supposed to be creative? i dont think so. nothing wrong with that, because the song is still really pretty. eisley is very simple. it doesnt mean lyrics have to be insane, or music does. there's just a good balance.

i think the song as a whole is creative. the way it is sung and the music. lost at sea is a pretty darn good song.

I always thought "And you know that till the stars fall, I'll always love you" was pretty creative. Oh, wow, it comes right after the line you said. Singling one line out of a whole song, out of context, does not make a good point. Especially when it's probably the most ordinary part of the whole song.

If that was the song's killer line, then we'd have something.

Agreed. They've been my muse lately. Matt Slocum is one of the most talented songwriters in existence.

Well, I'm going to be inclined to disagree, because anyting they can do Johnny Greenwood can do better, but opinions are opinions and that's all i've stated.

Just because somebody's better, it doesn't makes everybody else suck.
