  Pretty Much Amazing! — Authority: 569
  After much thought, I decided that I wasn’t satisfied with my original list, nor my execution of it.

This has helped me through the revision and tightening ...

  Spinner — Authority: 727
  Filed under: The Hit List Terms that come up more than once in our list of the best songs of the 2000s: "crazy," "idiot," "falling." Thats the decade in a nutshell. Too much crazy-making. Too many people acting like idiots. Too many things (buildings, savings, morale) in free-fall. Appropriately, a majority of the ...

• Glen Hansard on imagining darkness

  
  A Motley Vision — Authority: 459
  The value of dark art and the use of the via negativa in narrative works is something that I’ve been pondering for many years. It started with my fondness for Joy Division and then got mixed in to Mormon art by the emergence of Brian Evenson and Neil LaBute, two of America’s most conspicuous practitioners of the ...

  It’s almost not fair that the U.S. never got to experience Glen Hansard before 2007’s “Once,” because as of 2009, he has a 15-year history of making great bluesy-folk Irish rock with his band The Frames . And his experience mixed with 21-year-old Czech songwriter Marketa Irglova ’s unsullied piano and ...

  For every band, theres always a disenfranchised member who wants to do more. Maybe get a little more exposure, come out from behind the drums, or even hear some of his lyrics actually being sung back at him (or her). Maybe thats the problem.
