Wondering what I'm doing tonight
I've been in the closet and feel all right
Ran out of Carbona Mom threw out the glue
Ran out of paint and roach spray too
It's TV's fault why I am this way
Mom and pop want to put me away
From the early morning movie to the late late show
After it's over nowhere to go
And I'm not sorry for the things I do
My brain is stuck from shooting glue
I'm not sorry for the things I do
Carbona not glue

Ah the Ram Ones!

Cross posting (!) I really get pissed off with kids wearing Ramones tee-shirts who've probably got no idea who or what they were.

This is another from the Is A Woman LP.There's not a duff track on it.

I really get pissed off when I'm wearing a Ramones T-shirt and yet people assume I've got no idea who they are!!

Even though I've got about ten of their albums and listen to them constantly

The best vehicle song of all time. Amazingly it is as recent as 2013. There have been many great vehicle songs but this is the only one where there is no division between flesh and blood and steel and oil. When Henry dies, a part of us does:

Danny and The Champions Of The World - Henry The Van

Interesting - I hadn't heard of that before.

Bill Fay - Filled With Wonder Once Again

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PxfcGYd12I

A modest effort but, typically, so quaintly moving.

Set for release - 17 January 2020

(Dylanish vocals, Morrison and Drake leanings, but we might well ask ourselves with greater accuracy if this is the British Neil Young. I think it is - and what a fine concept that is. That pared down thing. And there is a lot more than these three. )

ALBUMS

Bill Fay (Deram, 1970)
Time of the Last Persecution (Deram, 1971)

34 YEAR GAP

Tomorrow, Tomorrow & Tomorrow (recorded 1978-1981; Durtro, 2005)
Still Some Light (2CD, recorded 2009; Coptic Cat, 2010)
Life Is People (Dead Oceans, 2012)
Who Is the Sender? (Dead Oceans, 2015)

Didn't the industry screw up here.

For old time's sake:

1971 - Be Not So Fearful

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJfca3ImjKc

And one of the best five songs released in this decade : probably top three.

What with this video and all........this record is breath taking.........well, it is to me.

I think it will last and build in the coming years, creeping up (nicely) on people.

2012 - cosmic concerto (life is people)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQ1J9d27aA0

I love the way it refuses to do the "um-pah-pah ; I'm here showbiz with my jazz hands waving"(although there is a place for such things). It could obviously have done that but the arrangement insists on being plodding until its end, as life exactly is, alongside the deliberate repetition of the most moving of lyrics. All the while the majesty is unfolding in swirls around it. It is like promising ejaculation and obstinately holding back from it : as such it's a total masterpiece. Cheers! :)

I've watched it twice and will probably do it again in a minute.Beautiful music and nice views of Dublin in the 60's.

The previous link I'm on about,not this one :)
