"I shine less"

@[withor] are you kidding, what "shithead"??
The money/happiness issue is far from linear: it's trivial to repeat, but money doesn't bring happiness; at most (in broad strokes) it helps build the stability on which one can construct happiness. For example, if you are rich but depressed/wrecked/drugged, then maybe I'm mistaken, but very likely you won't be able to find or build happiness... And that's another problem.
Here we're talking about a peculiar matter: "punks," who should despise the mainstream, sell out while spitting in the plate that generated them; they thrive (and from their perspective, they do well) only to realize that the world they despised is a machine much larger than they are... At that point, the machine either grinds you up, or you quit everything and go back, or, on top of anger, anxiety, insomnia, depression, drugs, and all sorts of crap, you write your catchy little hooks for MTV, pretending to be back in the plate, this time the golden & abundant one of the "shitty world" that enriches you; and you keep pedaling to accumulate the dough... It's a matter of choice: the Grammys and the sales achieved (not to mention posing as opponents of that US system that brought you to the Olympus of pop, let’s remember…) are quite eloquent in this sense.

A common parabola of n. bands/"artists" equally devoid of credibility and coherence... They rewrite nothing at all, but instead sign the contract and profit... And fair play to them, of course; especially because there will always be an audience that falls for it, hands and feet...

The rhetoric of those who sell their body & goods only to whine about the stress and anxiety generated by the machine they are allowing to lust after them will never convince me. The hypocrisy of the alternative attitude and anger against the system while you have videos in heavy rotation on MTV is absolutely not a subversion of the rules of the game; rather, it's textbook opportunism.

Yes, the film works very well, even though in the eagerness to achieve an almost perfect aesthetic level they've momentarily forgotten that there is also a story to tell... Well, you can't have everything. After all, the québécois here knows his stuff quite well; no wonder he outshines the cinema experts...
The music is well-crafted too, as when the average viewer is teetering between a dream of a thousand and one nights in mid-winter, the BAAAARGGGHHH hits you right on time to bring you back to solid ground...
Your evocations of the desert and surfing seem like a madelaine-tear from the mediocre Sharjah-Lahab trip you took last October, as you dazzled over how dead flesh could indeed transform into steel & power... But it's just a moment, isn't it?
You could have done more: the theme of terraforming could have inspired some parables about the "System"... Just like the jihadist suggestions could have led to a retrospective comparison Harkonnen-Israel... But anyway: (it's) raining here: the true desert seems really far away...
The doubt about whether you paid (fed the machine) or pirated (exploited the technology of the West) to see it lasts at most the time of a... you decide...

This @[SimoneCosta] is a marvel of charm...

You didn't say when it comes out and you didn't say that it's the new single that comes out when it comes out and it's the new single of the new singer-songwriter that comes out..

But didn't they just release one called "comeback album"?

How are we doing with promoting Zionism?
It doesn't seem too bad...

Everything is beautiful...
Long live self-punishment in music!

Could it be Mr. Brando from "Suspense"?
