Music All you fun king funking lovers love

In response to your mummies I give you GWAR covering Kansas. Not great but amusing. The best bit is his recognition of the desire to jump in with the lyrics at the 40 second mark.

Rather than give all yā€™all a list of videos Iā€™ll just drop this in. Best wishes for the coming year.

So letā€™s see if I can come up with a play list. Iā€™ve been recently listening to live recordings from 1970 so that might cloud the front end of this list.
You might not have heard that one beforeā€¦ Letā€™s start this Jan 6 of with Free

All right how ya doinā€™ man? Lookinā€™ good. Everything is fucked up as usual, ya know.

Ashen lady, ashen lady give up your vows
Save our city, Save our city right now

And now a break for our sponsors

Nazi Punks...

ā€¦Fuck Off

Punk ainā€™t no religious cult
Punk means thinking for yourself
You ainā€™t hardcore cos you spike your hair
When a jock still lives inside your head

Nazi punks
Nazi punks
Nazi punks-Fuck Off!

Nazi punks
Nazi punks
Nazi punks-Fuck Off!

If youā€™ve come to fight, get outa here
You ainā€™t no better than the bouncers
We ainā€™t trying to be police
When you ape the cops it ainā€™t anarchy

[Repeat chorus]

Ten guys jump one, what a man
You fight each other, the police state wins
Stab your backs when you trash our halls
Trash a bank if youā€™ve got real balls

You still think swastikas look cool
The real Nazis run your schools
Theyā€™re coaches, businessmen and cops
In a real fourth Reich youā€™ll be the first to go

[Repeat chorus]

Youā€™ll be the first to go
Youā€™ll be the first to go
Youā€™ll be the first to go
Unless you think

So letā€™s chill a bit after that last lotā€¦ Everybody knows its an industrial disease.

Hey all yā€™all how ya doinā€™? (Ifā€™n I say How ya doinā€™ huh? it leads into the thorazine shuffle and Govā€™t Muleā€™s gotta wait.) I hope yer doing well.
I realized after a quick perusal of the past posts in this thread I have not shared any Polly Jean. PJ Harvey is, well, damn. She isā€¦ damn canā€™t define it. She leaves me without proper words. Music can be entertainment and that is often enough but sometimes music is the medium for art, the entertainment that enlightens. That is PJ Harvey. I leave it at that so I go all fanboy on ya.
Hereā€™s the first PJ Harvey song I heard.

So PJ Harvey is a poet. Her lyrics are poetry. Just beautiful and then she makes them music.

Dress

Put on that dress
Iā€™m going out dancing
Starting off red
Clean and sparkling, heā€™ll see me
Music play, make it dreamy for dancing
Must be a way that I can dress to please him
Itā€™s hard to walk in the dress, itā€™s not easy
Iā€™m swinging over like a heavy loaded fruit tree

If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on

Itā€™s sad to see
Lonely, all this lonely
Close up my eyes
Dreamy, dreamy music, make it be alright
Music play, make it good for romacing
Must be a way I can dress to please him
Swing and sway, everything will be alright
But itā€™s feeling so damn tight tonight

If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on

ā€œYou pretty thingā€ my man says
ā€œBut I bought you beautiful dressesā€
ā€œYou pretty thingā€ my man says
ā€œBut I bought you beautiful dressesā€

Filthy tight, the dress is filthy
Iā€™m falling flat and my arms are empty
Clear the way, better get it out of this room
A fallen woman in dancing costume

If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on

If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on
If you put it on

man Sized

Iā€™m coming up man-sized skinned alive
I want to fit Iā€™ve got to get
Man-sized Iā€™m heading on
Handsome got my leather boots on
Got my girl and sheā€™s a wow
I cast my iron knickers down
Man-sized no need to shout
Can you hear can you hear me now
Iā€™m man-sized

Man sized
Iā€™ll measure time Iā€™ll measure height
Iā€™ll calculate my birthright
Good Lord Iā€™m big Iā€™m heading on
Man-sized got my leather boots on
Got my girl and sheā€™s a wow
I cast my iron knickers down
Man-sized no need to shout
Can you hear, can you hear me now
My babe looking cool and neat
Iā€™m pretty sure good enough to eat
Iā€™m man-sized no need to shout
Let it all, let it all hang out
Iā€™m man-size, man size
Man size, man size, man size, man size
Man size, man size

Silence my lady head
Get girl out of my head
Douse hair with gasoline
Set it light and set it free
Silence my lady head
Get girl out of my head
Douse hair with gasoline
Set it light and set it free

Sheā€™s an entertainer.

Sheā€™s a social commentator. (For those that might not get it, try to see how many male rock stars she imitates here)

Is this love that Iā€™m feeling?

Thatā€™s such a bizarre yet compelling pairing, like champagne with filet mignon.

I couldnā€™t get no satisfaction (votes) when I submitted Miss Polly Jean in the new music game for the ā€˜British artistā€™ round. :frowning:

Heard this singer/songwriter a couple of years ago and I think heā€™s awesome. This song isnā€™t his most popular, but itā€™s the first one I heard.

I love the whole Love Over Gold Album, very under rated in their catalogue. It Never Rains is probably my favorite from that one.

Going back thru the thread make sure I didnā€™t miss anything. This rips! And ya, Iā€™m usually out* for a rip when posting here.

  • actually in so this is pandemic compliant out.

That was great! Subscribed.

Listened to Bob and Tom locally back in the day. Iā€™ve always had issue with their laughing over songs. So many good and humorous songs with their laugh track like taint.

Here Come The Mummies - Do You Believe

I believe.
