appropriate

what constitutes the difference between appropriation and plagiarism?

what is: appropriate?

firstly band photos and album covers.

the original:

parallel lines by blondie (wow there are a shitload of people in blondie. all the guys always blend into three or so in my head, they all look the same)

the copies:

garbage (what seedy disgusting bald men)...

and a frightful cross dressing blur

(alex james and graham coxon on the left actually make my life worth living)

everytime i walked into jb hi-fi the other summer, i felt like i was at the optometrist:

eminem

Vs. james blunt

next up: abbey road by the beatles, which has actually been redone so many times, not even chuck norris could count the remakes

sesame street

the simpsons

pocoyo (cuuute)

let it be by the beatles. everyone has a shirt of this from ses. i have two.

fuck the beatles are awesome.

blur (serial copiers)

cartoon

old

hot

dirty (well the top two anyway. graham in the bottom right looks like an absolute angel. fuck i would tap that.)

gorillaz (i see a common factor here. blur/gorillaz = damon albarn. maybe it's just the mind of damon albarn that has to copy.)

the original: joan jett (she sure does love rock 'n' roll...urgh...filth)

the copy: vince noir (that booshing douche)

susan boyle dreaming

hurley, by weezer, rocking out

justin bieber kind of looks like a fag

and wolfmother's new album kind of looks like a vag (DA BIIIIG DOUBLE-U)

i would move into the sound of the music as well as the pictures. but that can wait until another day cos i would actually orgasm at the fun-ness and amount of music analysis.
