A long shot but are there are John Maus fans around here? I'd imagine most people would think his music is awful actually but I love him! here are some clips in case.

I really like believer been a favourite ever since I heard it. personally think he is a great musician. the majority of his songs I have difficulty getting into as the vocal delivery I find a bit off putting.
don't think his music would be quite the same though if it wasn't for that voice it sort of straddles the line between pop and weird.
this song is good imo,not sure which is the right speed?

Great choice with believer. I'm not sure with those two he probably just messed around with it for the new cd? [i think the first one is from a new album] not a favourite with me i do prefer the slower version though of the two.

I like the lyrics, one of the things I think makes believer more accessible is the structure, its set out like quite a standard song. I also think that because its less minimal in terms of instrumentation it becomes easier to get into. head for the country is nice too;

I tend to be a bit of a fan of retro synths and sound

i think i know what you mean, his last album is more like a proper album whereas the older ones have a lot of crazy minute long songs and stuff which don't really make sense?
love head for the country, one of my favourites
this might not be for you but i really liked this 8bit version of believer if you want...
