| The Stone Roses – I Wanna Be Adored Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Okay i think once you crack it it's pretty straightforward. Two points have been touched on that together complete the formula. A) The stone roses loved to project uber confidence and rightly so, they were in possesion of some incredible material at this point. B) John Squire specifically is an incredible and underatted guitarist and the routes of his style can be traced to blues so we can safely assume that he is a fan and a student of the blues. Robert Johnson would no doubt have been an influence on the whole band but specifically John Squire, Squire would no doubt have been aware and probley intrigued in the story of robert johnsson giving his guitar to the devil who in turned tuned it and gave it back to him instantly giving him the ability tyo play the incredibly compley lix that he became famous for. It's the first song on the first stone roses album, after the intro the opening line is preceeded by an incredible rift from squire and followed by "i dont need to sell my soul he's already in me" its tongue in cheek - it's saying im good enough already, i dont need a deal with the devil to improve" its a statement of intent and the structure continues throughout the song. It's incredible, i have listened to and loved this album for years but only last night did i join the dots....hence me finding this website and posting. As for the fella who thinks this about bum love.......really? i dont think so mate - cant really see these lads sitting in a garage and discussing that concept....have you heard pushing an elephant up the stairs by REM - now that is about crafty butchers! peace. |
