“very best of the doors” 2 cd set got for a very nice nt450. funny break on through was the original mix “she gets high, she gets high…” only heard of and never heard before, did a bit of double take.
I’m predictable.
Anything Johnny Cash.
I’m in a supremely juvenile mood. All these old cornball Misfits songs…once you start sniggering at one, the other ones come back.
“I want your skulls…collect the heads of little girls and pin them on my wall”
“Die, die, my darling…”
“Brains for dinner, brains for lunch, why can’t we have some guts instead?”
“American Psycho, running scared…”
“I ain’t no goddamn son of a bitch. You better think about it, baby!”
and of course -
“Mommy? Can I go out and…KILL TONIGHT?”
That Glenn Danzig knew how to write a catchy tune in his day.
“all the corpses here are clean boy”
dan le sac vs scroobius pip–thou shall always kill, too sick. thanks to stray dog for turning me on to this one in other thread, proper vocals “forgot where i was hold on” lol

Welcome Back!
Listening to my favorite song from the Cure’s “Wish” Album–From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea.
Got Amy Winehouse’s Back to Black for a xmas gift yesterday. Great CD. Goes something like this. . .
He’s upstairs getting some minge
I’m down here having a binge
He does blow, I do puff
Never gonna get enough
Why why do you make me cry
Think I’ll go crawl off and die
I’m so lonely I’m so sad
Think I’ll go out and buy a bag
Hitting the bottle, hitting the bong
I’m all alone while she’s sucking his dong
Why why do you make me cry
Thing I’ll go crawl off and die. . .
Anyway, that’s not the exact lyrics but you get the point. Great voice, but she’s really a sad pathetic person – strange how some people can be so fucked up (change comes from within, but some people just don’t have what it takes to make that change). Nonetheless, it’s a great CD. I’m looking forward to going home so I can give it another listen.
These albums are both pure awesomeness.
Get your groove on.
My two favorite Serge Gainsbourg albums. You gotta love the French. When Gainsbourg died in 1991, Francois Mitterand eulogized him by stating “he elevated song to the level of art” and called him “our Baudelaire,” “our Apollinaire”:

Histoire de Melody Nelson
[quote]You don’t need to speak a word of French to understand Histoire de Melody Nelson – one needs only to look at the front cover (with its nearly pornographic portrait of a half-naked nymphet clutching a rag doll) or hear the lechery virtually dripping from Serge Gainsbourg’s sleazily seductive voice to realize that this is the record your mother always warned you about, a masterpiece of perversion and corruption. A concept record exploring the story of – and Gainsbourg’s lust for – the titular teen heroine, Histoire de Melody Nelson is arguably his most coherent and perfectly realized studio album, with the lush arrangements which characterize the majority of his work often mixed here with funky rhythm lines which underscore the musky allure of the music. Perhaps best described as a dirty old bastard’s attempt to make his own R&B love-man’s record along the lines of a Let’s Get It On (itself still two years away from release), it’s by turns fascinating and repellent, hilarious and grim, but never dull – which, in Gainsbourg’s world, would be the ultimate (and quite possibly the only) sin .
Histoire de Melody Nelson‘s mix of freewheeling guitar, funk style bass guitar, near spoken word vocal delivery, and lush, deep orchestrated string and choral arrangements by Jean-Claude Vannier[1] have proven to be highly influential amongst later francophone and anglophone musical performers including the French band Air, David Holmes, Pulp’s Jarvis Cocker, Portishead, and Beck, whose 2002 track “Paper Tiger” from Sea Change is extremely close to the distinctive Histoire de Melody Nelson sound.
After the release of the album, a music video was made for each song, and released all together as “Melody” a short musical. Jean-Claude Vannier performed the album live at London’s Barbican on October 21st 2006 with guest vocalists Jarvis Cocker, Badly Drawn Boy, The Bad Seeds’ Mick Harvey and lead singer from Super Furry Animals, Gruff Rhys. Vannier performed the album in its entirety alongside Vannier’s solo album L’Enfant Assassin Des Mouches.

Forest of Shadows - Where Dream Turns To Dust
any metal fans here?!?!
‘PEOPLE LIKE YOU…’
KJAZZ 88.1 Jazz & Blues from Long Beach…streams over the internet and always good music.
click on ‘listen’ at top of page and follows the prompts.
Just listened to the new Goldfrapp album, “Seventh Tree”, and it’s pretty damn good. A bit of a departure from their electronica roots, and a little more mellow: an ethereal ‘Sunday afternoon’ kind of sound that swirls and sways around you.
released feb 28th next year, but fans should know where to look for pre-release copies…
aslo the first two Hooverphonic albums, a bit old now but still excellent euro electronica on par with Air.
and for something completely different, i have a couple of punk albums from the Ruts to catch up on next.
Got 18 Essential Songs by Janis Joplin for Xmas – nice!
