If you dont like the Stone Roses, dont speak to me ever again.

I am inspired by the recent documentary Blood On the Turntables in which the Stone Roses's success and demise is revisited by former band managers and band mates.

I have found other people also obsessed with the Stone Roses's 1985 single, I Wanna Be Adored.


i swear, i do this at home too.


I dont know who these guys are but still, pretty amazing (despite the dudes vocals)


i wonder if Death Cab's fans have any clue who they're covering. probably not.


Matt Skiba / Heavens - aw, Matt bringing his own vocal steez to the plate.


and the geniusgod himself defining what it is to be a rockstar 20 years later!!!

No matter how fit everyone at the table was, it was comforting to know they were all eating french fries and burgers.
