That must be how I found this, too. Someone just replied to a six year old comment of mine on this video, and I couldn’t figure out how I ended up here. lol. I don’t even particularly like the song now, now that I think about it. 😂
I saw them play in the basement of a Church in my hometown, back in 1998. Then they broke up. I came down to Seattle for their reunion at Capital Hill, 8 years later, but the 98 show was the best they ever were...
Luke Gardiner Radiohead is like that for me, save for maybe a couple songs, which is pretty impressive in a catalog the size of theirs. Oh, and Elliott Smith. Anyways, what's the best album by these guys? I'd like to check them out.
It’s no crime we got off easy It’s no crime we got off easy You were once xxxxxxxxxxxxx Or the beauty of Byron/Myra? xxxxxxxx Sure as the xxxxx in the page Sure as the tree was successfully slain Every day I rise and no one cares I got no disciples to scare Every day I rise and no one cares
I remember a tragic poetess Guess I seen a little too much A little too much to let it stand Little too much to let it stand My truth it was xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx It all seems so out of my hands Everything is/that’s? not xxxxxxx shall be taken Shall be taken
My friend from San Francisco tried to transcript the lyrics. She said it was crazy hard. Here they are: There’s a machine between me and the page It’s like a song and it rings and it bangs Rhythym for my fingers, melody for my brain Purple? xxxxx is simply a phase Every day I rise and no one cares I got no disciples to scare When you devote yourself to a xxxx Guess you might turn out the same way (?)
There is also a b-side for this one called "Ballbusters and the Peanut Gallery"...... Definitely support the band if you dig this track and be sure to pick them both up.....
What radio station are you listening to? Lol, gotta love thems Internets. I use Last.fm and Spotify, and since they work together it's almost scary how I can look up any song I've liked for the past 4 years. As for The Murder City Devils, they're my all-time favorite band. Happy, sad, angry, numb... I always seem to be in the mood for them. As far as I'm concerned, they're the definition of punk-rock-and-roll.
Is there an english speaker who would write down the lyrics here ? I can't get all of them and I NEED to. The one who'd do so would get a little bit closer to heaven.
Hurray for the Internets. I put on the radio on my phone on a whim last night, when I was in bed. Caught this song in the middle of the track, thought it was pretty damn good... Didn't catch the track name, but knew the FM frequency I was tuned into and found the station and the playlist of the song at that time and found the song. Without the Internets I'd probably not found out what the song was called. I'll need to check out the rest of their stuff! Err... yeah, anyway ;x
