What lyrics are you listening to now?

[FaaipDeOiad]

Yes I do, but just randomly pulling out one band that I like struck me as odd.

You git. (Can't help meself.)

I was just choosing a band that isn't "esoteric" or "obscure" (as though those terms are insults) that I know you like. Replace it with The Killers if you like.

 

[Mr Casson]

Replace it with your mum - she's a diva.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Anyway, on topic, loving the new Decemberists album atm, and When The War Came has a terrific chorus.

And the war came with a curse and a caterwaul
And the war came with all the poise of a cannonball
And they're picking out a rise by coal and candlelight
When the war came... the war came hard

 

[Mr Casson]

There's a war in my pants and it came hard...

5 days of sleep deprivation is really starting to catch up with me. Sounds like bedtime.

Look, someone read the lyrics I posted. My life is complete.

 

[Tomm NCCC]

He's in Love with his Rock n Roll World
He's in love with his gangster world
He's in love with his Janie JONES world
but he dont like his borin' job no!

 

[Barney Rubble]

Woman
You know you woman
You got to be a woman
I got the feeling of love
When you're talking to me
You see right through me
I got the feeling of love

*thumping guitar riff*

 

[BoyBrumby]

Convent walls can be so high
Please forgive me, darling, should I cry

Convent Walls, The Triffids.

Listening to little else just now, TBH.

 

[superkingdave]

You're fractured and cold but your heart is unbroken
My favourite foremost coastal Antarctic shelf
Oh Larsen B, oh you can fall on me
Oh Larsen B, desalinate the barren sea

 

[BoyBrumby]

Whistling men in yellow vans
They came and drew us diagrams
Showed us how it all worked it out
And wrote it down in case of doubt

Build, The Housemartins

Right old 80s revival tonight!

 

[_Ed_]

Can't knock 'em out, can't walk away,
Try desperately to think of the politest way to say,
Just get out my face, just leave me alone,
And no you can't have my number,
"Why?"
Because I've lost my phone.

Nah I've gotta go cos my house is on fire,
I've got herpes, err no I've got syphilis...
AIDS, AIDS, I've got AIDS!

Lily Allen - Knock 'Em Out

 

[Slow Love™]

I decided long ago, never to walk in ANYONE's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I live as I believe
No matter what they TAKE from me
They can't take away my dignityyyyyy

Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greaaaatest love of all

Helps me through the tough times.

 

[Pedro Delgado]

Ge Ge Re, Ge Ge Re, Ge Re Ge Me Ge Re
Re Re Sa, Re Re Sa, Ni Sa Ni
Ghunji Si Hai Sari Fiza Jaise Bajti Ho Shehnaiyaan
Leherati Hai Mehki Hawa Gungunati Hain Tanhaiyaan
Sab Gaate Hain Sab Hi Madhosh Hain
Hum Tum Kyun Khamosh Hain
Saaz - E- Dil Chedo Na
Chup Ho Kyun Gaavon Na
Aao Na.. Ao Na... Aao Na... Aao Na...

Tan Man Mein Kyun Aise Behti Huyi
Thandi Si Ik Aag Hai
Saason Mein Hai Kaisi Yeh Ragini
Dhadkan Mein Kya Raag Hai

Yeh Hua Kya Humein Hum Ko Samjhaoo Na...
Sab Gaate Hain ...Khamosh Hain
Dil Mein Jo Baatein Hai
Hdton Pe Laoo Na
Aao Na... Aao Na...

Ab Koi Duri Na Uljan Koi
Bas Ek Ikrar Hai
Ab Na Kahin Hum Na Tum Hd Kahin
Bas Pyaar Hi Pyaar Hai

Sun Sako Dhadkane Itne Paas Aao Na...

Sab Gaatein ...Khamosh Hain
Ab Mere Sapno Pe Tum Hi Tum Chahoo Na
Aao Na... Aao Na... Aao Na....

Ghunji Si Hai ...Gungunati Hain Tanhaiyaan ...
Aao Na Aao Na....

Asha Bholse - Aao Na.

No idea what he's on about, some bird probably, nice song though.

[Pedro Delgado]

Oops, sorry.

 

[Kweek]

nobody ever had a dream round here
i don't really mind that its starting to get to me.

 

[Matteh]

Just a small town girl,
Living in a looonely world,
Gelman took the midnight train going anywheeere.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Don't give the ghost up,
Just clench your fist
You should know by now
You were on my list

The Killers - My List

 

[Matteh]

Tarick admitted it was average. It's on it's way down

 

[Barney Rubble]

Tarick admitted it was average. It's on it's way down

"Admitted"? It's not like everyone who rates it is lying!

It's (fairly obviously) not as good as Hot Fuss, but it's still a fantastic album IMO. A little more contemplative and less raw than Hot Fuss, but not that much worse.
