i think it's the most kick ass rock and roll song he's made in a while. usually the songs that are chosen as singles by him are usually not in my opinion the best on the album (although still awesome) but this one kicks ass. one of the best songs of the year by any artist.



sorry. i'm super dumb. i was writing about how i love T.A. (not tits and a__)

six legged man is great. it's still growing on me.

Part of a Crack Pot Theory

In "The Possibility of an Island" There are three main characters, Daniel, and two of his clones.
Daniel is the six legged man.


A quote from Charles
“I take to heart what Iggy Pop says. ‘It’s all disco.’ And, to a certain extent, it is,”
“When you think about how classical music, over the decades and centuries has changed… when you think about how much rock and roll has changed in 50 years, and really, you and I perceive all kinds of changes happening all the time. But from another perspective, things haven’t changed that much. We’re talking about a back beat. We’re talking about a three-minute pop song. Verses and choruses. There’s a lot more similarity in all these so-called genres than there are differences, I think.”

Iggy Pop could be Charles's king of the back beat.

Préliminaires is a 2009 album by Iggy Pop, released on June 2, 2009, and inspired by Michel Houellebecq's novel "La Possibilité d'une île" (The Possibility of an Island).

I'm sure it would have been crude had you said "something like that". As it is I said it.

Just a passing observation. One oughtn't object really.

I was going to say something like that, but I thought it might be a little crude, even for my standards.

This is what urbandictionary.com has to say about a "six legged dog":

1. Two dogs humping.
2. A way of describing the doggy style position.
3. A dog (or person) on all fours being mounted from behind. The mounting dog (or person) provides the rear two legs.

"Daddy, what are those dogs doing? Son, those aren't dogs, that's a six legged dog."

I wonder what a six-legged man is. Any idea?
Meanwhile, here is a six-legged pig.

It just sounds a bit undercooked, really.
Brank_Flack Posted - 02/14/2010 : 12:28:19
I'd rather Six Legged Man sound different than the TH production - not to say one of the other is better, but it offers more variety in his catalogue
Ziggy Posted - 02/14/2010 : 10:05:24
'Threshold...' is amazing, since it's got far richer production than the other 'Bluefinger' songs, yet sounds raw at the same time. I rather wish 'Six Legged Man' was the same. Maybe it's just the mix.
trobrianders Posted - 02/14/2010 : 01:45:32
I never get tired of the cattle rancher yelps that he sometimes brings to his songs to help guide them through the canyons like here on Six Legged Man. He's at his best when he lays down that stamp of authority on a song.

I love Six Legged Man but I wouldn't have minded if it had sounded twice as big and loud and rich. That's some narrow canyon.

Brank_Flack Posted - 02/13/2010 : 18:19:53
It's still an amazing song though, and the production is great. While it might not be as mindblowing as threshold, it might not be fair to compare the two - it'd be like comparing all of his stuff to Los Angeles - TH is a force to be reckonned with!
A man without a band, six legged man darlin!
Jose Jones Posted - 02/13/2010 : 16:53:29
it think you're right in thinking this song deserves its own thread. i love it. a lot. EDF does have a style that he brings, and it's one that really works for me, and honestly, for frank too. i enjoy what all of his producers (himself included) bring to each record, but EDF + Frank = a force to be reckoned with.
