One of my favorite SP tracks. The opener for Adore that sounded completely different from their previous material. An album made when the band was at odds and falling apart at the seams, when just two years prior they were the biggest band on the planet. This album captures the band in a state of flux and the vulnerability that comes with it. An underrated album that gets shit on for a band heading into a new direction.
Today It has been 16 years since my Aunt Sheila's passing. She was a great policewoman that died in the line of duty. This song is one of my favorites, and every time I hear this I think of her. RIP Sheila Tyman .❤️
This was just over a week before Deftones released Around the Fur. We also got Ozzy's first Ozzfest, Dude Ranch, OK Computer, Nimrod, Portishead, new Faith No More, new Foo Fighters, as well as Cheap Trick, Days of the New, Third Eye Blind, Sevendust, and Blur's self titled. Good year for all things 90s 😌🤌
Twilight fades Through blistered avalon The skys cruel torch On aching autobahn Into the uncertain divine We scream into the last divide You make me real You make me real Strong as i feel You make me real Sheila rides on crashing nightingale Intake eyes leave passing vapor trails With blushing brilliance alive Because its time to arrive You make me real You make me real Strong as i feel You make me real Lately I just cant seem to believe Discard my friends to change the scenery It meant the world to hold a bruising faith But now its just a matter of grace A summer storm graces all of me Highway warm sing silent poetry I could bring you the light And take you home into the night You make me real Lately I just cant seem to believe You make me real Discard my friends to change the scenery Strong as i feel It meant the world to hold a bruising faith You make me real But now its just a matter of grace
The best live version of To Sheila I've heard. The song is sparse and has to be played on acoustic in this country style live to come alive. Others versions with full electric sometimes overpowered the song.
Pretty sure that’s matt walker. He was in filter and played after Jimmy got the boot in 96. He played on very few adore tracks and was replaced by Kenny arnolf in 98 for live shows.
