'Darla' on one of the early Anticon samplers.
It ended with Oaklandazasylum.
It started again with Sanddollars.
It changed with Elephant Eyelash.
It became something else entirely with Alopecia.
"While i'm alive i'll feel alive"
"Yours is a funeral i'd fly to from anywhere"
"Cold and hard as a marble table top
With nothing on top,
There's no hip-hip-hop-hooray
Keeping heaven's golden-barbed gateway,"
And so so many more.
Cheers for the session link too, really interesting.
"Sending sexy SMSs to my Ex's new man, 'cos i can."
"The kind of shit i won't admit to my head-shrinker. Not even in a whisper to my own little sister, i just act like a dick and talk shit when i'm with her."
cheers.
anyone going to see them play Venn festival in bristol in june?
In an ideal
world I'd get to follow Why? all round the uk when they tour. In reality, I only get to see them once as their White Heat show is sold out.
Lame
seeing them at
Primavera and White Heat, bickity BAM!
how the fuck
do i listen to it?
Subscribe to the
podcast on your iTunes, it's worth it...they always have good stuff.
or I think if you go to 'Listen' - 'Podcasts' then you can downloads it.
excellent!
i'm listening now :D cheers!!
The Hollows
live sounds absolutely ridiculously good.
i can't wait for that
i'm on theeeeeesssssseeeee feeeewwwwww presidentsssss (these few presidents) and it's so good. his voice went all warbly. fucking YES!
"even though i haven't seen you in years
yours is a funeral i'd fly to from anywhere"
that's just the best lyric ever isn't it?
oh man
fatalist palmistry is actually my favourite Why? song now.
I think I prefer
'Your cat clawed out my eyes, while I was distracted by your smile'
:D
that's also amazing.
"you're the only proper noun i need"
"blowing kisses to disinterested bitches"
the lyrics of why? > the lyrics of anyone.
i agree with this so so much
i was compiling a list of my favourite why? lyrics on my way home from work today.
post them here
!
i sleep on my back cos it's good for the spine
and coffin rehearsal!
that's like
totally part of my msn screen name. the first couple of lines of their songs are always so good.
^^^completely
that was the one which inspired me to think of others.
I never said I *didn't* have syphilis
makes me LOL
fucking sweet as.
just listening now and it's ace-sticks.
I would have
maybe liked a few Elephant Eyelash tracks thrown in just for good measure, y'know. But who am I to complain? No one. That's who.
this is mega
tar. also found a really old session by the books on here..which is nice
mmm
could have done with 'fall saddles' or 'yo yo bye bye'.
Give me a ticket for White Heat
...or Primavera.
'the hollows'
has the best swear in any song.
i'm going to keep posting in this thread as it's now my "i love why? thread".
if you can teach a dog to play the kazoo
if an ape can take an interest in his hairstyle,
it only follows that you'd enjoy a morning jog in high heels
while your dance shoe feet bleed.

Can't wait to see him live again.
"Sometimes I claim to know a guy
but I can't tell you what his hands look like"
I now go to sleep and wake up thinking "billie the kid did what he did and he died"
"slow
like an exercise bike on an airport walkway"
This is great!
Thanks!

"if i remain lost and die on a cross
at least i wasn't born in a manger"
You get stoned like death in the bible
ftw

Good Friday

Is it just me
Who has noticed how terrible the majority of the backing vocals are in this recording?
Yoni's spot on, but the rest are only occasionally fine and when they're out, they're OUT.
Shame since the layered vocals on Alopecia are so rich and effective.
Best lyric on Alopecia
Only those evil live to see their own likeness in stone!
by far!
Most fun - Blowing kisses to disinterested bitches.
