Ex-Girlfriend Club

What a great song... these guys have been around forever, but this is the first tune to strike a chord with me. The "heroin" beat is quite interesting.

incredible. the rest of the album is too much work to transcribe, but I kind of like "she can stop traffic" as well.

thanks to indiekids.org for turning me on to this one. It's too bad I can't understand half of what he's saying, but I did my best on the lyrics... I'll update if anyone has a better suggestion.

The lyrics actually say "you give me a heart attack" but in the singer's thick English dialect it comes out sound "you give me art attack." Also, the lyrics are "I'm still Danny from the blocks." (not Daddy). The band's writer and leader is Dan Treacy, whose most famous song was "I Know Where Syd Barrett Lives" in the 1980s. Treacy himself just got out of jail and fans of the Television Personalities staged a benefit concert to raise funds to pay for studio time so he could put out this new album "My Dark Places." People either love it or really really hate it, since it's quite minimalistic and many of the tracks sound like most band's reject outtakes. But the album definitely grows on you, especially tracks like "Special Chair" and "All the Young Children on Crack," which is a strange, strange song with a backbeat which sounds just like Queen's "We Will Rock You." The Television Personalities, for what it's worth, were Kurt Cobain's favourite band.
