| this was my first instinct, too. i know he's quoted explaining the meaning a little differently, but... i'm still seeing/ hearing sex when i listen to this years later. | |

| Bouncing Souls – East Coast Fuck You Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Mixed hc and punk, east coast: We've got Street Dogs, H20, Bane, Slapshot, Minor Threat, OS101, mission of burma (post punk but important), Misfits, hogan's heros, ramones... so, a little more history than dropkicks. The subsequent birth of street dogs when mike left is good enough in itself. This isn't at all a slam on west coast... my favorite band is bad religion. minor threat is up there, too. really there are too many good bands to name that i dont care where they're from, but seeing bouncing souls perform this live is fucking awesome in boston... im guessing even better in jersey. uh... uh... uhh... point is, more than dropkicks. |

| Grateful Dead – Scarlet Begonias Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I'm going to add my opinion/ interpretation tomorrow when i'm a little less completely exhausted, but does anyone know if these lyrics are 100%? I've heard a few different versions, but I haven't seen the liner notes to the CD since the time I originally "acquired" from my older brother when I was 13. Which is oddly 13 years. Anyway, I'm pretty sure they're spot on, as I've always hummed along and sung in my head, but if anyone can enlighten me, please do and thanks in advance. P.s., I love both this version and the sublime version- but they're from two totally different eras, artists' preferences/ lifestyles, and general story line. But that's kind of what makes me like it as well. I get crap for it all the time, but I love covers. Not all- but specific genres of bands covering different genres, etc. In one person's point of view it could be like an original/period monet painting vs. a replication today, loses it's meaning because the times have changed in so many ways. From the very broad times in general, but also just generally in people as we experience life and grow. This song was written during a time I don't think we'll ever get to experience again, I get the feeling that Bradley understood that and kept some of the lyrics either similar or the same, and wrote his own story in lyric form about his girl with scarlet begonias tucked into her curls. I'm tired. Apologies if this makes zero sense. Also; this is coming from someone who is 26. I would love to be able to experience the times when Janis Joplin was singing this with the dead, but the 40 0z to freedom album the sublime version is on is closer to my age range than the Dead version. Guess it depends how you look at it. I was introduced to this song before I procured the CD by someone I share a bond with because of it, so I have an attachment to the original, as such may be biased. I do love sublime, especially the 40 oz to freedom album. And I got into it with another person I was close to. So I guess by my above logic, I could be biased. I love them both. But the dead version is THE version. And I think Brad would agree. |
