Procol Harum – A Whiter Shade of Pale Lyrics 21 years ago
Where in the world did you get the lyrics for this fine song. Here is what I hear:
"when we called out for another drink, the waiter brought a tray."
and:
"that her face at first just ghostly, turned a whiter shade of pale"

The Prodigy – Out Of Space Lyrics 21 years ago
I heard this song when I was stationed in Germany with the Army back in '92. It was on a German radio station. Techno with a reggae-backed chorus. I was very surprised to see that they were signed to Maverick Records(Madonna's label) and were making it big in '97. I always thought they were talented but I thought I would never hear of them again. Glad to see they made it here in America. Just wish they would put out more releases. I've waited 5 years for the new album.

The Who – Bargain Lyrics 21 years ago
This song could stand alone as the reason Keith Moon is considered by many as the best drummer ever. Listen to the last minute of the song to see what I mean.

The sax solo sounds like a third chair elementary school student in band practice. Pretty cool

Dead Kennedys – Moon Over Marin Lyrics 21 years ago
I wanted to comment on this song, except daycare_abortion said all there is to be said. Excellent song!!
A bit like the happy-go-lucky Clash song "Spanish Bombs" in that it is dark and still perky.

Hey you tool!

You were the one to say that the first two people who liked the song were morons.
"i dont think anyone likes people telling them what they should like."
Idiot.

The Clash – Spanish Bombs Lyrics 21 years ago
As you can see from the above lyrics, this is not exactly the happiest song out there. Those of you who know the song knows that it is upbeat musically. Strummer / Jones sing it like it was a cheery English pub song.

The worst song in the rock 'n' roll era

The White Stripes – Jimmy The Exploder Lyrics 21 years ago
Very powerful, in-yer-face guitar. Maybe the best first song on a debut album since The Cars "Good Times Roll".

Leonard Cohen – Everybody Knows Lyrics 21 years ago
I first heard this song after buying the soundtrack to the movie "Pump Up the Volume". The album had a song apiece from two of my favorite bands, The Pixies and Sonic Youth. I hadn't seen the film yet.

"Everybody Knows" was covered by Concrete Blonde and I was very moved by the lyrics. The woman singing the song (Johnette Napolitano) sounded to be at the end of her rope with the world. She sang very powerful and passionate. It was the first song on the album

I later see the movie and the very first image presented is a record spinning with the needle down. There was a man singing this song and he sounded 80 years old. I was disappointed not to hear the version I had bought on CD.

But the lyrics intrigued so much that I later bought the L. Cohen CD "I'm Your Man."

I really don't listen to the Concrete Blonde version anymore and have had years of collecting, listening and re-listening to Mr. Cohen's music. Dark, cynical and absolutely essential.
