I don't know, maybe the video can have this as its own discussion thread?
Personally, I like the video. It's a bit different, like the song is a bit different to anything I've heard before from Frank.

Yeah, it deserves its own thread with a more descriptive title.

I love the Men In Black video. I like the realness of it, with Frank making a peanut butter sandwich and stuff. |

Great! Sounds and looks like Frank is really awake, just like "In The Time Of My Ruin". I liked the Catholics, but this new song got a "here and now" feeling. The kind of song you like to hear more when you wake up than when you go to sleep.
Now, to be very clear and dumb because I m not 100% sure, is this a song from Christmass or the Eric Drew Feldman project ??? (or something else) |

How very DIY. I like the looseness of the small CD release and various tours. |

I've checked YouTube before for that video...doesn't exist on there, unfortunately. It is a great video...hope it turns up as all the rest should as well on a legit release.

| Am I crazy or is this song very Pixie-ish? Best video ever. It is so nicely cut, I can't believe Frank did this (considering his impatience for new media). |

According to Frank's (now dead) mog, "Gyaneshwar" and "She's My Way" were actually written for the Pixies. By the way, the Pixies section of Frank's digital collection also included "El Rey de Hawaii", "Storm" and "Skip This Part"...

Oh, and I LOVE "Gyaneshwar" - even more than "Deadman's Curve" maybe.

Very sweet video. Clearly homemade by Frank, Violet, and the kids.
The song has grown on me something fierce, too. I'll admit that I didn't care for it when I first heard it (played live last October in Dallas), but it's sounds rockin' to me now. |

ok no men in black video... I'll check the magic FBnet FTP or something tonight when I'm dreaming
Gyaneshwar is such a Pixies song. It will be nice when they re-record it in January and then release it as a cd5 enhanced video single a week before their double album.
I mean, right?

I'm starting to like Gyaneshwar, too. It has taken me a while, though. Hearing Dean and Brian pick it apart a little on the podcast helped stimulate my interest. And hearing it several times is helpful too -- like many of Frank's songs, it just wasn't an instant hit for me, but it's grown. And I'm with matto -- the minute I heard this song last month, I thought it sounded like a Pixies song.

Great tune & very good video too. Nice montage of images. Simple ideas/production are often the best.

I think it's just for the fans on the internet. Could be the secret track on the DVD, though, I suppose...

So it was not good enough for Kim Deal? Strange... I though she just feared country frank black style (like, lets say, ¨goodbye lorraine)but this is pure genuine pixies, better than a lot of pixies song actually.
When Frank himself said he failed to write pixies songs again I imagined something much much worse. |

| Yes, this was a cover. But "Full On Iddle" (that appears both on the amps album and Title TK) is country punk. |

That kim deal country story goes too far, it is starting to have a life of its own!
That was just from a recent Frank interview, something like "the other pixies fear that I come up with country songs".
Anyway, those two new songs (from the videos) worth to be pixiesified , lets SHOUT it!
Or is it too late? |

Yeah, considering your points I think you're right Grotesque.
On another note, I don't think these songs will be Pixies now that they are on a FB-album.
And being played that often. I would go for the big 'surprise' instead of this.
But yes, they could be great Pixies songs, but as for now they are amazing FB-songs!

| So, was Gyaneshwar one of the Pixies reject songs that sounded too cliché to Frank? Because if so, he must have his standards in another galaxy because this song is amazing. |

Looks like it, I know Adam Buxton has a youtube account and we know he's a big FB fan, they even had him on the Adam And Joe Show.

I never picked up from the YouTube vid the "who ya momma*" lyric. What a funny little discovery. And neat.
(* or something like that)
Forgot to say, "Ooh! Se Donna, Who ya momma" for any few wondering where it fits in.
Now where's that misheard lyrics thread! |
