a great time juxtaposing "helen" by joe iconis with "centerfold" by the j. geils band
#if you've listened to dad rock '70s-median'd stations you've probably heard it. charting single. the: ((my) angel is the) centerfold one#it's juxtaposable in good ways and interesting ways lol there's plenty enough to Compare & to Contrast re: either song#actually i'm already like holding myself off from starting to go on about specifics lol#a situation i have a lot of thoughts; i Was writing them out the other night but it turned into the lengthily typed & posted thoughts about#metastory in pentiment & iphigenia crash land falls instead lol....#so feel free to just partake of the exercise yourself#had a great time revisiting both songs even knowing them both already / hearing them multiple times#enhanced appreciation or delighted like ''oh right [this element] yay''#centerfold? more charming than i remembered actually lol like oh nice yeah that one line does a lot#and i'm always hyped abt the [i don't even know the instrument or term for the musical part] like synth whatever line in the verse to#chorus transition. there's a lot of ''nice im liking that'' elements such that this Isn't just ''helen is like if centerfold didn't suck''#meanwhile it's an enriching time to be thinking more abt all the elements & effects in helen too#you Know i'm revisiting my slipped into pocket will roland performance lol. no antoinette perries season now i gave it to him obv#only category that exists is [youtube recordings of live cabaret i have saved on my laptop of will roland performing helen]#and guess what tonys? it's nongendered.#joe iconis
