We were watching the DVD from New Order Live at Reading Fest, this evening. During the performance of BM; Bernie changed the lyrics to: "If it wasn't for your big peni$, I'd be a heavenly person today" Out of the blue, my fiancé hypothesized: This song is about $ex; sodomy, specifically. "Tell me now how do I feel?" I have to agree with her; it's a song about ana1 $ex. |

| The Stone Roses – Standing Here Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| The guitar intro is the same (very similar) guitar intro as the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar. Galilee (where JC was from) is 100 miles from Jerusalem where he was crucified. Therefor, using what was given to us: this song is about the resurrection, but twisted to also be about unrequited love. Pretty damn brilliant and hauntingly beautiful.

The Mersey flowed near where he grew up and there was a drowning murder in the area, apparently by a man killing a woman over unrequited love. Brown seems to be putting himself in the place of the murdered "If she were here I'd hold her down, push her under while she drowns". I would also think a boat passed and was witness to the murder so he wanted to jump in and grow fins to escape... | |

I agree with you mate. I am always impressed my bands that have the balls to place their best songs as B-sides. There are not that many.
