| Rowland S. Howard – Shut Me Down Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
Prolly a quite obvious one, about the break-up between Genevieve McGuckin and him. They still lived together, and this was rather rough, and one night when she got home he'd written this. You can hear her talkin' 'bout it in the documentary Autoluminescent. (Which contains lots of precious interviews - although you can see the pain in the eyes of those who stood him close...) |

| Rowland S. Howard – Dead Radio Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
On a Q&A Genevieve McGuckin replied to the question wether Dead Radio's about her and Rowland's relationship. "Dead Radio? I feel uncomfortable attributing Rowland’s songs to myself, but this I do know. We were doing our complicated thing, sharing a place despite having broken up, and one day in ’95 he said: ”Gen… I’m writing this song and it’s got a line about tetracycline overdose, but please… don’t get upset!” (I’d had an antibiotic overdose as a baby, which affected my teeth). Me: “Should I be upset? Is it about me?” Answer: “Yes… well… yes, it is… but it’s also a mixture”. (‘what to ignite….’?) From the horse’s mouth. " |
