JohnRogers Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Elon Musk has launched you into space. You're heading to Mars via a one-man space craft. The journey takes six months. On day three your trusty space craft, Pegasus, suffers a catastrophic failure. To stay alive you must dump massive amounts of data. Adding insult to injury only two of your play lists survived the equipment breakdown but one must be deleted. Are you keeping Bon Iver or Bon Jovi. Which band gets jettison out the metaphorical airlock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I've never gotten into Bon Iver, James Blake, James Blunt, Sufjan Stevens, that whole crowd. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I've never heard anything by Bon Iver, but it sounds like something the author of this poll would listen to. So Bon Jovi by default. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoopid Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) Bon Iver is ick. I get why the lumber/metro sexual crowd digs it, it's like if Radiohead hit their head and went folk. Bon Jovi is ick in a completely different, predictable top 40 nothing to hear here kind of way. It sounds like this scenario involves some living on a prayer. Holocene. I'm out.

J2112YYZ Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 "Who the f**k is Bon Iver?" Should be one of the vote options because that's the one I would vote for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invisible airwave Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) Bon Iver is actually worse. Hated his music before Taylor Swift collaborated with him. He's typical boring hipster crap that Pitchfork loves and calls innovative and edgy along with The National. At least JBJ has childhood nostalgia for me and Miracle from Young Guns II is good just for the presence of Jeff Beck on guitar.

zepphead Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) Holy smoke!! Bon Iver make Bon Jovi sound like musical geniuses.A short while listening to Bon Iver and you would be tossing yourself out of the airlock!

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I have absolutely no idea who or what Bon Iver is. For all I know it could be a brand of saltine crackers, or weatherstripping for your front door, or a quaint little shop in Soho that sells candles. I voted for it because the other choice is Bon Jovi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IbanezJem Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I object very strongly to the absurd hypothetical premise. Surely Elon would be able to provide a form of cryo-sleep, keeping me in a pod at a steady low temperature that would wake me up after six months, in time for the mission - which you don`t even bother to elaborate upon :tsk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babycat Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) I put in a vote for Bon Jovi as I have no idea who in the name of blue balls Bon Iver is. Edited September 23, 2021 by Babycat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRogers Posted September 23, 2021 Author Share Posted September 23, 2021 So, I've been exposing myself to Bon Iver and I find it mostly Bon Boring. The material is probably good to sleep to. I'm sure Rolling Stone finds it deep and complex like a fine wine but if forced to choose I'd go with The Assistant Night Manager - Bon Jovi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
