I kind of love you for this secret.

[identity profile] 3goodtimes.livejournal.com 2009-05-08 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
145. Personally, I don't think Amanda's music sounds anything like PJ's. Musicians pay their respects and emulate each other all the time. That's how things evolve. Nothing to get your panties in a twist over.

You might want to ton down your judgmental character, because this isn't like your friends have a friend you can't stand--this is famous people you will never know having a friend you can't stand. And that's dumb. Deny not yourself the awesomeness of Neil Gaiman and Voltaire (both way awesomer than PJ Harvey or Amanda Palmer) because of some single girl with a piano artist du jour (and I like Amanda Palmer's music and even I know she's just one in a sea of 'edgy' female singers with painos copying Tori and Ani and PJ).

(Anonymous) 2009-05-08 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
You assume that I don't already know at least one of them.

I love you for loving Polly Jean. SHE IS MIGHTY.

[identity profile] sidewinder.livejournal.com 2009-05-08 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG NO ONE IS EVER ALLOWED TO WEAR THE SAME T-SHRIT EVAH!!!

Never liked PJ. Love Amanda. My love came thanks to [livejournal.com profile] kylecassidy and his beautiful work which finally drove me to seek her out. But not every "edgy" female singer/songwriter is the same, bb or a copycat of someone else. Sorry you feel butthurt about it.

lol, i know.

i was like . . . they wear the same shirt so now amanda palmer is ripping her off?
wtf?

userpic relevant.

i love them both, but i love amanda more.

[identity profile] phonexwing.livejournal.com 2009-05-08 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes yes yes yes
I completely agree.
I thought I was the only one who didn't like her.

[identity profile] atelierlune.livejournal.com 2009-05-08 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't personally see any evidence of Amanda Palmer trying to emulate PJ Harvey, but I will agree with you inasmuch as Polly Jean is a goddess and no one can ever be like her.

(Anonymous) 2009-05-08 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm... I half agree about not liking Amanda Palmer. But my reasoning has nothing to do with PJ Harvey. One of my friends absolutely adores Amanda Palmer, but I'm a little conflicted about her. I love her music, but honestly, I'm not sure I really like her in general (if that makes sense?). I think it's because she reminds of someone--or, rather, she is kind of like the embodiment of all the things I dislike about someone I know.

[identity profile] tenmorehours.livejournal.com 2009-05-08 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I feel a similar way about her. I think she's got a cool sense of fashion and I enjoy listening to her music, but sometimes I read stuff where she's been interviewed and she comes across as thinking she's like some sort of...modern-day Mozart. Her attitude just rubs me the wrong way.

(Anonymous) 2009-05-08 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
OP here,
I used to like her music, the first album and maybe a little into the second where she was still talking about herself/her relationships and not trying to be politically controversial and stir shit up. Since the last Dolls album and her solo, however... not so much. Admittedly, there's one or two songs still worth listening to, but her whole persona has just become something I can't stand.

tl;dr comment is tl;dr

[identity profile] altarmusic.livejournal.com 2009-05-08 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
okay. since this entire thread seems to be YAY I AGREE i should probably post anon but fuck it. i honestly do not UNDERSTAND how anyone could hate her other than being shallow and not getting her based on her lack of conventional looks. that's always where my suspicions go whenever anyone says they hate her, probably because of all the little teenage emo girls that said she was a "fugly troll" when she toured with patd because she didn't look like the typical little internet-whoring scene queens they were used to. but i'm not going to make assumptions and i'm just going to address what the op said in the secret itself. in wearing that shirt, she said SPECIFICALLY that she was paying homage to polly jean. i don't really see how they have ANY similarities musically other than being female and artistically uninhibited? amanda is always very vocal about her respect for other musicians and i can't see her "ripping off" anyone. her persona is her own. it's totally unique to me. but i guess i'm biased and i could be wrong. though i don't think you have to worry about being alone in your opinion because she gets a LOT of haters. sometimes i honestly feel like disliking her is becoming trendy lately.

I don't hate Amanda, but PJ is the best ever and it makes me happy to see her referenced.

Also the fact that this secret got that "OMG NO ONE IS EVER ALLOWED TO WEAR THE SAME T-SHRIT EVAH!!!" comment delights me, but probably not in the way it was intended. Thank you, secret maker.

[identity profile] adventurerobot.livejournal.com 2009-05-08 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
OH HI THERE. I AM KIND OF BREATHLESS.

I used to really like the Dresden Dolls, like, A LOT, and now, lately...

I can only really listen to their self-titled album and Amanda herself I find very annoying.

It's SO ANNOYING for me, just because she's recently exploded in popularity (or so it seems to myself) so I would have loads of people to discuss music with and all that. But no, I've gone off her NOW. Of all times. Huh.

I'm really glad to feel like I'm not alone. I really can't stand her, and I used to feel the complete opposite and it really bugs me.

[identity profile] barbarismbegins.livejournal.com 2009-05-08 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I adore both Amanda and PJ, and I think Amanda is inspired by her - in the same way she has spoken out of being inspired by The Smiths or The Cure; just because she clearly respects all of them greatly doesn't mean she actually sounds like any of them. I think saying that she's trying to emulate her is reaching. They really don't sound anything alike.

I like PJ Harvey (rocks live) and love Amanda Palmer. But I think I love this secret most of all, just for your dissenting opinion. I just like to play devil's advocate?

[identity profile] wyvernrabbit.livejournal.com 2009-05-08 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I like Amanda Palmer and I still get irrationally pissed off whenever I see that PJ Harvey inspired photo.

Possibly because half of her fangirls don't even know who PJ Harvey is and are all omg she's so ~edgy~ with this photo LOOK AT IT.

That being said, I liked her a lot better when she was in the Dresden Dolls, she was less abrasive then. But I still hope they never get back together ever so World/Inferno can keep Brian as their drummer forever and ever and ever though. <3

lol comment about Voltaire & Neil

[identity profile] aziraphales.livejournal.com 2009-05-09 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
Fear not, for Neil works in mysterious ways.

And Voltaire is pretty. IDK. That's my comment.

[identity profile] arcadiaego.livejournal.com 2009-05-09 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
I couldn't give a shit about Amanda Palmer, but if you like those people so much, maybe you should credit them with a little more intelligence than being somehow fooled by 'that thing' as you so charmingly call her.

I'm getting really into Amanda, so the "I hate her" made me awww-sadface, but then I saw the Polly Jean picture and went "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" XD she's a hero and doesn't get anywhere near enough props.

I really don't think Palmer's trying to emulate PJ. no one can really do that. She obviously digs her, hence the shirt and cover and all, but any right-thinking person should. In any case, shit, obviously you're free to hate away, but Neil and Voltaire are both grown men and wouldn't be friends with anyone they didn't think was worth befriending.

Overall I'm happy about this secret, though, cause PJ HARVEY ON FANDOMSECRETS YAAAAAAAY!

[identity profile] trustyoursins.livejournal.com 2009-05-09 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
Soooo... because Amanda Palmer is "emulating" (ie, wearing the same shirt as and did a cover of) your idol -- who, as she's your idol, I assume you also emulate to a certain extent -- she gets relegated to the status of "thing" and no one should be friends with her, ever? Wow, isn't it just awesome to see reasonable fans.

I don't really see Amanda Palmer as sounding all that much like PJ Harvey. Can't we all just love them both? D:

YOU ARE WRONG ON THE INTERNET.
