Heart breaker, soul shaker I’ve been told about you
Steamroller, midnight stroller
What they’ve been saying must be true
Red hot Mama
Velvet charmer
Time’s come to pay your dues
Now you’re messin’ with a
A son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a
A son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a son of a bitch
Talkin’ jivey, poison ivy
You ain’t gonna cling to me
Man taker, born faker I ain’t so blind I can’t see

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
Great song. Was lucky enough to see Nazareth in their prime in the '80s, and this song was a show highlight. Never really thought much about the words, but the past few years I have been enjoying satellite radio and the sound clarity is so good that I can actually understand what the words are. This song is one that took on a new meaning.
My thought is similar to Lizardking1971's. The expression 'Hair of the Dog' refers to taking a sip of alcohol the morning after tying on a bender. The booze (in theory) helps smooth out the recovery from the hangover...I can say from my own experience that it doesn't work. This urban myth comes from an old wive's cure that a dog bite would heal better if clotted with dog hair. This song seems to refer to a very selfish woman who runs into her flip side. Not a pretty relationship, but maybe that will cure her ill behavior.;-)
In any event, this song is always a crowd-pleaser and I always turn it up in the car. The sound effect is indeed a 'talk box' like both Frampton and Bon Jovi use, and the live version of this song includes Scottish bagpipes. Funny White Chedda mentioned AC/DC, because they also used bagpipes in 'Long Way To The Top', and the Yhoung brothers and Bon Scott ware from Scotland just like the guys in Nazareth.
I love that this song talks about a girl who's kindof a tease and stuff and now apparently she's fallen for a guy who is just as bad as she is (hence the son of a bitch lines)... but yah I love this song
Hahaa, Hair of the dog is simply "Son of a bitch" . This term was used because the record company thought the title would be overly offensive ( despite the lyrics repeatedly stating just that .. The band compromised offering "Heir " of the Dog ie "Son of a bitch" but the record company had the final say, The song has nothing to do with a hangover . There are also no bagpipes . The effect is a "talk box" as stated elsewhere, The lyric itself is simple . A girl who comes with a reputation meets a man who won't be messed with "son of a bitch" . It's a macho Fife anthem from a place where men traditionally were hard , and worked long shifts underground in the coal mines and refused to compromise on anything when they emerged to see the light of day.
dude, i love this song...i love the chorus i think it'd be like, the perfect fight song (except maybe "If You Want Blood (You Got It)" by AC/DC...) but ya does anyone know what those "Pipes" are? i think it'd be awesome to have those in a band they sound so cool, but i know they're definitely not bagpipes, dude...i think it's like some kinda tube they stick in your mouth but i dunno what it's called...
"Wah-wah" pedal.
It's a talk box, not bagpipes, or a pedal of any sort.
The effect you're talking about is done with a talk box.
Heir of the dog = son of a bitch :)
Hair of the dog was the first Nazareth album I bought. Went I saw them in concert they played this and it was amazing. I really had no idea that the weird sound about half way through the song was a bagpipe noise. It was so cool.
they're called bag pipes
or a vocoder
Hair of the dog hasn't got very many comments. That's odd.
Great song!
