That Scarlett Johansson mess is what made me avoid the She & Him project altogether. I strongly doubt she'd (and I suppose they) bring anything incredibly original to the field. I might stream a few songs to see, but still, I really think like I'm saving myself time this way.

People like them? I thought they were pretty bland the one time I heard them.

Also, I think she's a shitty actress, but that's a whole 'nother story.

She played the part in the gem of a film(500) Days of Summer really well, apart from that you're right. Despite her being

Her music is just that, pretty bland. Not bad, just nothing memorable..

No I'm pretty sure he was serious.

O_o

Really?

I think she's pretty good from what I've seen.

She's not great but I really liked her in Lost in Translation and Ghost World.

And in Horse Whisperer, considering she was only a kid at the time.

I found her rather boring in The Prestige though.

Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), aside from a couple songs, is boring as fuuuuuuuuck

pop music has about the same hit/miss ratio as any other form of music, and about the same number of shitheaded fans who think what they listen to is superior to everything else

there are waaaaaayy worse groups than Insane Clown Posse and Nickelback

Family Guy has some really kickass music(i never really see anyone saying it, but it really does)

In the same review he talks about sex with homosexual radishes. I'm pretty sure it's tongue-in-cheek.

You know, I totally agree. I've given that album a lot of chances but it just doesn't do it for me. There's just not enough to it.

I've probably never heard a full song of theirs. However, I have heard her sing in a cotton commercial while watching some show on Hulu.com, and it sounded absolutely terrible.

She's pretty cute and I don't mind her acting, I kind of like the roles I've seen her play. But quit fucking singing.
