It's actually her second child. Maybe if she hears these tunes during labor, she'll from then on associate Grapes of Wrath Banjo players with vaginal ripping?

Not a Bon Iver fan but I would suggest these instead: Nazereth: "Hair of the Dog" and Bullet Boys "Smooth up in ya" and perhaps Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach"

And Paul Anka's "Having my baby" would be a delightful addition to the mix.

first son born to Brian Eno's Music for Airports album.. second to Joao Gilberto's "White album"

both highly recommended. i would advice against playing individual tracks…. the last thing you want is to be distracted by songs.. you're more trying to establish a background mood and then focus on what you got to do

Do people who have the worst taste always think others have the worst taste? Or is it just you?

EDIT: Yada beat me to it. Still, he liked The Hangover. I can't get over that.

You can't get over the fact that someone liked Hangover? It made a ton of money and was like the hit of the summer it came out. Every guy I have ever met has loved it. Zach G. is hilarious in that movie. The second was terrible but first one was a comedy masterpiece.

It is the highest grossing R rated comedy in history. What next you can't get over someone liking Star Wars?

Comparing The Hangover to Star Wars completely nullifies any of your arguements.

High School Musical grossed a bajillion dollars too, does that mean it's the best movie? Fuck no.

I know you guys are going to bash me for bringing this up, but the Hangover was even CRITICALLY acclaimed.

http://www.metacritic.com/movie/the-hangover ;

I only drop that fact because "big hit of the summer" movies typically are bashed by critics.

So this movie was seen (and loved?) by the masses, AND liked the critics.

Except for DFA, who thinks it's the worst fuggin movie ever.

I have never seen High School musical. But if it made a billion dollars I am sure people enjoyed the movie so it shouldn't come as a shock to you that someone liked it. You like a lot of people on here have issues with people liking things that you don't. And then saying they have bad taste like you are the barometer of good taste. I don't know who was bashing my musical taste and then they were hopeful that Queens of the Stone age were playing in the area. Really that is who you like?

OMG CRITICS LOVED IT

Then we turn around and bash the Grammy's and the Academy Awards and Golden Globes?

Sit down. If Pitchfork said The Hangover ruled everyone on here would turn around and say it was flaming shit.

IF you don't thing that movie sucked an insane amount then that is TOTALLY fine. My opinion is mine, yours is yours, I'll think less of you for it, but at the end of the day who cares what I think. Luckily, this is a discussion forum where I can pan whoever likes The Hangover.

That movie fucking SUCKED. FUCKING. SUCKED. I can sit on here and talk all day about how much it sucked and it still won't do any justice to the level of suckitude that movie emitted.

Fuck me. That movie really, really, really fucking sucked. It sucked so hard. It's like they wrote a bunch of bro slogans for cheap beach screen print shirts and made people say them on a movie just so they could pump out stupid fucking shit for stupid fucking people to buy.

That. Movie. Sucked. So. Fucking. Hard. I will go on. I think it's a shame how many people liked that piece of stinky shit movie.
