French Fries With Pepper - Morphine

[MaccabeeRidah]

This should be at least double as long.. Just as it gets on my sanity totally .. it stops.. Loooooooooop..

[Nic0Finn]

Song ends and I instantly hear in my head, "Tore open a package, it was an empty box..."

@snoookie456 YEAHHHHH

[Dahstin]

ohooohooooo

[zonadeculto]

you should be able to give more than just a "thumbs up", so we can show our compliments to the artist without having to stop working and write a comment! REALLY love this song. Sad that in Portugal there aren't many fans! everyone should listen to this song in school...or better, in university!

[MaryFJane]

@zonadeculto Somos poucos, mas somos bons! :)

[H34DCRUSH]

@zonadeculto Don't say that, I am portuguese, living in Oporto, attending college, and got some friends whose exquisite taste starts and ends with Morphine. This should be in every kids' manual: "Turn to page 9, paragraph 9, sentence 9. Start reading the lyrics for Morphine's "French Fries With Pepper"."

[kurotenshijam]

@zonadeculto

não faltam fãs de morphine em portugal

[theresagoble]

The people who don't like Morphine are usually hip hop rapper types.

Rap is poetry set to music. To me it is just like a jackhammer.

[CrnPan]

I had one of the best sexual experiences during this song while my ex was on me riding me with her hips in the rhythm of this song while quietly whisperin the words. ... ......... ..........................

Pepper!

[jonaspv]

1-1-11 I sat on my front porch (don't have a back one) drinking red wine and listening to this awesome track.

[MrPossumOnAStick]

@FREDPERRA  "Like Swimming." Excellent album.

[FREDPERRA]

@MrPossumOnAStick Thanks a lot, next one to find for me.....on vinyl!!!!!

[MrJOKER06]

wawou i'm discoverning this band right now !!! it's the second sound that i listen from them and i like so much :)

[chrisclarkvideos]

Mark. It's 10/10/10 and your in heaven. I'll meet you at the Green St in the sky

[Cooter3422]

I've been waiting for this date for roughly 11 years, 1 month, and 1 day!

"On 10-10-Twenty-10, I thought it was over, but here we go again!"

[doctrozaimon]

He never saw 9 9 99. DAMAGE

[handymandan100]

how about 10-10-10-dy 10?  Heh heh...

[Cooter3422]

Amazingly, that's not so far away now! :-o

The only other two remaining that could have been done, would have been:

11-11-11-dy 11 and 12-12-12-dy 12 (or something like that, if you get what I mean!) ;-)

[AKIRAxTAKUMI4VER]

I've always liked this band being that I'm only 13 I'm a bit of an oddball in this crowd but their music is so sophisticated and the lyrics are cool. I like this one and empty box alot too. I'm so sad the main singer died, the others have a new band but it isn't the same.

[Serpico69]

i just discovered this band. fucking awesomeness all around.

[kidnapkid]

french fries with pepper = heroin lines with black specks in it?

[handymandan100]

let's hope it's a little more innocent than that... maybe just exactly what he's saying, just doing it "His Way" lolz...

[malamogli]

gooooooood stuff

[frankbombs]

never made it.... so sad. my dad took me to see these guys in orlando when i was just a kid. he died only months later.

[BLiND0023]

surprised no one posted here today - of course it's 10 years later, but people's obsession with the date made me hum the song until I finally remembered the refrain. FRENCH FRIES.....WITH PEPPER!!

I remember playing this song at full blast in my future wife's loft when I heard Sandman died before he made it to the back porch.

[Cooter3422]

You wouldn't believe where I first heard this tune, and it was well before YouTube existed!

...It was back in the early 2k when I was playing "Capture the Flag" on "Unreal Tournament" on a map called "Burger Wars" or something! Haha...

Basically, McDonald's vs Burger King, and I think it had that guy from King of the Hill in it doing a voice over and complaining about getting his order through to some dumb kid behind the counter!

"I don't want ugghh, I want a Large Coffee, Large Fries snap!"

[5P1D3RBA1T]

yeh same here i so want that song of that map i use to leave ut99 running in windowed just so i could listen to this song tis awesome looked for a while to see if i could get it the 1 from ut99 but cant find it :(

[rw16966]

RIP

gr8 musician!

[GrantMLeach]

Trippy and Slow, I like it.

[zibadele]

relaxing, sexy, fullfilling one's mind. that's my kind of song...

[sickosandsuch]

So very smooth; me and my friends smoking, drinking wine, eating fires and pepper, dancing at times; ah memories.

[aurlis2012]

this song is soooooooooo chill.

[Kartofflesalad]

is he playing bass or tenor sax?

I was thinking of picking up a sax, (I used to play) and want to use the same range as him.

[ajtsok93]

both of them : bariton and tenor .

[Lowclef]

sometimes both at the same time.

[makeitadoubleyeah]

paulcourlas, how many people did you know that loved the music of Morphine exactly? So many that you could hold a 'party' on 9-9-99? Im not suprsied it was a sad event! Jesus. Maybe you couldve had a party but just not made it so morbid? DOnt get me wrong, I love Morphines music, Yes is one of THE albums of the 90s, I saw Morphine at the Garage in 97, had a chat and a cigarette with Mark after the gig. but shit dude that sounds a bit weird, that party....

[zpobro]

Bravo kraljevi najjaci nasvijet! Vis te strasni, zur komont

[paulcourlas]

On 9-9-99 I had a Mark Sandman tribute party. We played Morphine all night, ate french fries with pepper, and drank redwine on the back porch in his honor.

It was a sad night.

[ilmezzanotte]

@paulcourlas respect :)

[morris2112]

@paulcourlas

Me too! actually I was all alone, sat on my back porch with my dog and drank a bottle of wine.

Thinking of Mark ... on this 10/10/10

[paulacavaco]

@morris2112

Big Smile! :D ... 'case i'm doing it since 9-9-99! :)))

[paulacavaco]

@morris2112

Big smile! :D ... 'case i'm doing it since 9-9-99

[jonaspv]

@paulacavaco Cheers for the Portuguese Morphine fans!

[jonaspv]

@paulcourlas I'm drinking red wine in a back porch on the 1-1-11, count on it!

[rmkepler]

@paulcourlas I did the same thing

[SlicKitty73]

@paulcourlas Yes it was...and I did the same thing! He died one year before my father and ironically, my father was the one who called and told me he'd died. :(

[meesterrain]

probably not the first to remark upon this, but it's just creepy how he stops counting @ "99" & he died in 1999.(3 months prior to September 9, 1999.)

[atomicspatula]

How is that in any way creepy?

[ericatkent]

I love morphine, also I love the band morphine haha

[piskota019]

Svaka cast!

[AZIMUT227]

Great song brings back great memories of a hot young blond I taught how to drive stick in my M-3 best bass line and grind ever not only did she learn how to drive but she started a Morphine drip.

[nepenthean]

i have an m3, and there is no way I would teach anyone how to drive a stick in it, blonde or not.

[Lowclef]

depends on the blonde really.

[bgsk8]

hipnotyzing!

[lpanelpane]

fucking great!

[nunzioforpresident]

i love morphine..i love this song,it's amazing.

[imexiled]

At one point, (a few years back) I found myself making a connection with a young lady. However, once I played Morphine for her, and only comment was It sounds a little creepy. Well that was the end of the blooming relationship.

[asifineededaname]

any chick who dont like morphine should be shown the door and escorted outa your place .

RIP Mark, your magic lives on

[JATBIETS010]

@asifineededaname mine doesn't like it, but she's to damn hot to be shown the door, sorry to dissapoint you mate :P

[giovea]

ahhaah. great story man . it saved you a lot of trouble in advance. i wish i did the same at that point....

next time wont miss

[UnspeakableRX]

[Marianobass]

Siempre pense que a Mark se le a cruzasado la idea de poder haber tocado esta cancion el 9-9-99... una lastima.

[almudjk]

[quackking]

[theguidobear]

It's really creepy how he died just a few months before "9-9-99."

[ShotgunHeroX]

[SCROGY]

God damn..........whoever posted this.....I wanna go to that bar in Cambridge that Morphine played at and have a glass of whiskey with you in Marks honour......Thank You!!!!

[Arjeje]

If I could only take one band's albums with me to a deserted island...Morphine wins, hands down!
