i was wondering this question recently... we all love xiu xiu, obviously, but what song/moment is xiu xiu's greatest mistake?
i will suggest the obvious: "walnut house"
any others?

i was close to saying fleshettes too, actually.
but then it dawned on me.
"he did a split with devendra banhart. i'm going to type that in."

hey, if it weren't for that split i wouldn't have gone to buy cripple crow as soon, so i liked the split. devendra singing about wars in such a folky voice is just as good as him singing about wanting to rape little boys...music to my ears

working with devendra banhart. this made me laugh out loud... i almost had pink lemonade come out of my nose, which would have been painful... keep adding a few more suggestions, and i'll start a poll... maybe "10,000 times a minute"?

"I'm going to cut open your roofing shingle with a forehead."
That was a real mistake.

i love the hell out of walnut house. it feels like erik satie watching gay porn during an earthquake or something, i can't get over it.

as for mistakes, i'll say that i don't really enjoy the more political material. it doesn't have the same "heart"
