| "Feeder" is gay slang for a person receiving fellatio, though I have no reason to believe that has anything to do with this song beyond Coil's (often blatant and explicit) sexuality. | |
| Coil – Tattooed Man Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
From an interview with Peter Christopherson, linked here: http://brainwashed.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=5456:coil-the-million-dollar-altar&catid=74:interviews&Itemid=91 [GR] And does [Tattooed Man] have anything to do with Marc Almond specifically, as he has sung on a few Coil tracks in the past ("Slur", "Titan Arch", "Dark Age Of Love" etc.) ? [PC] I believe its about Ian [Johnstone, Jhonn's partner,] rather than Marc (Jhonn and Ian did have some of the same tattoos), but as with all of Jhonn's lyrics there is ambiguity everywhere. Of course the man lying down in a grave with the SAME tattoos was himself. Despite being friends (off and on) for 20 years, Marc and Jhonn had been estranged for a few years as a consequence of some misunderstanding that was publicized on the internet—I dont know what exactly—and at the time of the Jesi show they had just gotten back in touch on a friendly basis. I think that's all there was to it. |
