TNG 6x24: Second Chances
Ok, she said “Night Bird” but same energy.
It also helps to imagine that scene, but with this voice:
As long as it’s not fucking Wonderwall
There was a small bar we used to frequent, so small the only “live music” they used to have is dudes who finish their guitar lessons because it was always some little douche in a white v-neck and jeans playing an acoustic by himself. And every single time they’d play the same 10 songs and always mildly enthusiastically say “so who wants to hear some Wonderwall?”
That looks fun! Lemme try…
Oops, darn.
No, don’t growUP, 007, or you’ll ruin the franchise!
Craig wasn’t bad. Had little choice but to be the one to fit in to the “dark and gritty” period. If nothing else, we have Layer Cake as a great marker for what his 007 could have been.
Craig was great, it was the general tone changes that I was referencing. More fun, more gadgets, less dark/gritty could have saved it. I prefer misogynistic dinosaurs with ridiculous cars.
Fookin A.
Eh, maybe if Riker belted it out in Spanish lol.
🎵Y en conclusion, tu eres mi ilusión 🎵
i prefer that ancient sea shanty “Louie Louie”
A song about leaving a committed relationship with someone to go sow your wild oats? Troi doing some deep cut heckling here.
I mean, she intentionally chose “Night Bird” because she knew he couldn’t play it. Even in the episode proper, she’s was trolling masterfully lol.
I remember in my senior year of highschool there was a vote to what would be the class song. I don’t remember the other choices, but they decided on Free Bird. A song from 1973 about leaving a committed relationship for the class on 2010.
I had a lot of dumbasses in my class, that don’t understand context or sub-context.
Its like people who claim to love Escape (The Piña Colada Song) without knowing it’s about a couple who are both actively cheating on each other only to accidentally end up on a blind date with each other.
Or those who think Born in the USA is super patriotic when it’s about kiiinda the exact opposite
Oh, haha, I’ve always considered that one of the dumbest songs in pop. I guess I should give it a closer listen.
FREEEEEE BIIIIIRRRRDD!
🎵I’m as free as a bird of prey now… 🎵
And this bird, you cannot see!
As a life long guitarist that has played some larger venues in the past… I feel this in my soul.
I was that guy lol
A few of my friends were in a band in college and played at a bunch of local/regional dives. I was the light and sound guy if the venue didn’t have their own, so I was at most of their shows.
It wasn’t part of their set, but they did keep Free Bird up their sleeve and would play it when someone shouted it. If no one did, I’d step up and yell “Play some Free Bird!” in my most exaggerated southern drawl.
Do you give them the first four bars, or just whip right into the solo from Tornado of Souls?
You ignore it and keep playing the set. Unless it is somewhere that you’re behind chicken wire and need to dodge shards of bottles.
So is it really as frequent as the cliche says?
There’s almost always one asshole that will do it, yeah.
Ok, I have definitely been that asshole actually, but it was always a joke.
You mean this Night Bird?
Also, I’d be ‘er huckleberry e’ry day o’ the week, yess’m. Those painted-on wranglers & churchy gingham’d break any wild buck in half a minute flat —and keep right on walkin’. 🤯
This and Wonderwall.
Though I did learn the important bits of Wonderwall so we could burst that out when people screamed it.
Both chords and an obnoxious British accent? “CHEWDAAAAY IS GONNA BE THE DAY”
Uhura and Spock had the same energy, she improvised a song, trolling him about his attractiveness. It was like they’d been friends for long enough that she could tell him he was hawt, knowing it wouldn’t really lead to anything serious.
TOS or SNW?
My money’s on TOS s1e2(7th produced) “Charlie X”
TOS, the flirting was overt.
That’s amazing. I can’t believe that’s real, lol.
Fun fact, this is the only conservative band or artist that could arguably be considered “good”
Riker’s Bone is conservative?
No no. He’s quite liberal with it.
Riker’s Bone is the most egalitarian in this arm of the galaxy. His continuing mission is to explore where no bone has explored before.
Which Free Bird? How many are there?
The one behind your zipper, what else?
