[seixas84stg]

Once I listened to this song 24 times in a row.

[BreakTheSkyMyseIf]

There's just something about this band. This is just supernaturally good music.

[infernozet]

@BreakTheSkyMyseIf

I think its perfectly worked simplicity

[brealistic1970]

One of the best albums of all time.

[Lukeinator64]

I'm proud of finding music like this to help me make my own. Frank Black, I salute you and your freakin psychosis! I DEMAND A NEW PIXIES ALBUM.

[MrSpork13]

Pixes fast songs are great. Pixies slow songs are great. Pixies = awesome.

[OneRadRudeboy]

I'M PLAYING FALLOUT NEW VEGAS LISTENING TO THIS AND MY MIND IS BEING BLOWN.

[bodhisvattva]

@OneRadRudeboy that is such a Fo:NV song....it should be there.

[Reeko747]

the 90's sucked ass . . . except for the music . People are into music for different reasons today than they were back then . Too many sell-outs tryin to please the masses . Everyone should write music that suits themselves . If someone else does'nt like it , then thats their problem . If its honest though people will atleast respect it . And maybe just like it also ...

[323232rob]

@Reeko747 Everyone seems to be concerned with money and success, they create this image that the masses fall in love with but what they don't realise is when a different generation looks back at todays music it will be ridiculed as it will be shown for what it really is - unoriginal re use of the same shit over and over again

[ZaheedaNaheedya]

it's silver

it's gone

sorrow

sorrow

sorrow

eerie dark song, I like

[GorillazBeatles]

in this land of strangers

There are dangers. I love this song so much, the doolittle album is the best! I wish I wasn't a 90's child, so I could of been surrounded with this music while it was actually in the making.

[mchelo18]

@GorillazBeatles

I was a teen in the 90s, you know, it was great, but we were all so miserable, lol, no wonder it was the grunge era, we felt like shit most of the time

[GorillazBeatles]

@mchelo18 See, I will of course, be considered a teen during the 2000 Era. Oh great, everyone will see it as a music hell and the beginning of the end.

see, I would of loved to be born in... the 60's. I could had the chance, but of Vaguely remember a Beatles concert.

I could of seen Joy Division, Cure, Nirvana, and everything else... though I have had the greatest chances to see Gorillaz and Ani Defranco.. pretty soon Mumford and Sons and Flaming Lips and Primus :)

[MickeyYahoo]

@GorillazBeatles Everyone over 30 thought the 60's were the end and no one was making any good music anymore. Same as it ever was.

[DarkAngelEU]

@mchelo18 kids nowadays don't try to feel shit, but we all kinda feel like there's no reason to study, graduate, etc. You know, the typical life, we're so bored of it. So we go partying and drinking, taking drugs... I hope my generation at least spawns some great artists

[crazymadman3]

@DarkAngelEU well drugs were popular is the 70s and 60s look at all the original music then

[mchelo18]

@DarkAngelEU

what you say is pretty much how we felt, there was no perspective and the future seemed a pile of corporate shit, not much has changed. I think there are great bands now, the only problem is that the ways to get to know them are more scattered, there is less space for bands like this in mainstream media, so you have to search in alternative websites, magazines, etc. On the other hand, now we can download nearly everything, so there is no limit to what you can find and hear! :)

[DarkAngelEU]

@mchelo18 So true dude. Still sad tho, cos most people don't take the effort to look for great music except for mtv etc... makes me kinda cry

[TheDp321]

@DarkAngelEU nope we never will our generation sucks thats why we are called generation me we can only can think about ourselves

i blame it on the mainstream culture

[DarkAngelEU]

@TheDp321 Is that really everything to blame? Of course, society tries to make us feel like adults way too fast, making us feel responsible for things, taking them too seriously and thereby losing the fun and spontanity of experimentation. 15 year olds take relationships way too serious instead of just experimenting and discovering sex and all that, making good basics for later relationships. We always blame ourselves, we're not worthy etc.

Why don't you be the change? ...

[DarkAngelEU]

@TheDp321 part 2 here: If you know what's wrong with your generation, try changing it. That's what they did back then and it (sorta) worked, music gave them something to go through those dark days.

For myself, I'm almost 20 and have a brother that's classified as a "generation Y", inbetween the X and ours. I'm too old to be a ME and too young to be a Y, but I feel like I can make a change. Be it in art, any sort of it :)

[mchelo18]

@FANCYBREADmusic

Turn off the TV, or do as I did, throw it away. ;)

[goddamnhero]

@FANCYBREADmusic dude they've had shite music every generation, but the good shit gets remembered, you have to go looking for it, our generation has the internet so you can literally go out and find the most unique and amazing music that would have gotten little or no exposure in a pre-world wide web era...

[Ajapam34]

@FANCYBREADmusic Nirvana was being shoved down people's throats by MTV back in the 90s. It's no different than it is now, it just happened to be that the most popular band was also pretty good. The market has changed so MTV plays different stuff. They're just pandering to teens to make money, it wasn't any different before. That's business.

[farokisking]

This song reminds me of old westerns!!!!!!

[TMANMAN16z]

This should be in Red Dead, just saying, I love this song so much. One of my personal favorite songs on their best album

[BigMert]

lovering played the bass on this track

[N64AndBattleTanx]

For some reason this song reminds me of Fallout: New Vegas in a weird way.

[MrDubs2]

@N64AndBattleTanx I agree man. Maybe not specifically that game, but definitely a Post Apocalyptic setting. Just open desert wasteland.

[multicolourorange1]

This song is just...mind blowing!

[jeepndesert]

is this song about the crime of 1873 like the wizard of oz (and the crime of the movie where they changed the slippers from silver to ruby)

[Vaga365]

An old friend who was the engineer on Doolittle played me the tapes of Kim working up this song. A spooky and engaging night that was.

[doubleder]

Always knew Pixies had a little "cunt"ry in them!

[Soundgardener80]

This reminds me of 60s californian psychedelia

[JAk8836]

I couldn't tell if that was the shortest 2 in a half minutes of my life... or the longest. I got chills, man. Chills.

[darthsarth]

@JAk8836 yup

[MrAdoy89]

feels like walking through a ghost town in the desert at dusk or someshit

[MrKrause93]

I always thought this wouldve fit great in the very first few frames of Natural Born Killers.

[squidster29yay]

fuck this song is creepy.......but good.

[WoodRatGirl]

This should feature in a western.

[SpamNapkin]

This is the kind of music a suicidal cowboy would listen to.

[giggidy61]

this song sux



[Alos21]

@giggidy61 your dads condom sucked

[AlterEgo709]

@Alos21 lmao.

[DJMiilk]

FUCKING HELL.

My mother first showed me this song when I was young, she had it on a tape.

She didn't know the name, but after searching every Pixies song and listening, I finally have it.

Thank you.

[Uzzie101]

Didn't Nirvana cover this? Haha, just kidding. Sliver and Silver are both great songs.

[XXNationOnFireXX]

This song reminds me/makes me want to play Red Dead Redemption. I dunno it just sounds like old cowboy type music. Don't know/care if anybody agrees with me.

[dcorps]

@XXNationOnFireXX great fucking game, great fucking song, only natural that they would go together.

[JakeWeirdo12]

@XXNationOnFireXX I do. I loop it when i play it. I play vamos when the battle erupts. lol

[BellaLibellula]

The vocals in this particular song make me think of Oh No Ono! Great tune. Sounds like mournful slaves hauling a heavy load or perhaps painstakingly chipping away at stone with pickaxes, or some Western vigilante walking away from some vengeful deed he's done.

[JakeWeirdo12]

@BellaLibellula This song made me think of ALL of that stuff before even reading your comment. lol

[castlekingside28]

looooooooooooooooove this song!!

[MetroidFan621]

Doolittle>Nevermind. It just is. I know Nevermind was actually a great album, which unfortunately got crazy overplayed, but come on. This album has way more depth musically, and is just way more fun.

[rollinstonesdontsuck]

Doolittle.

[Arenicolous]

One of their bests! Which album is this?

[OzzInter]

I finally saw the Pixies live 23 March 2010 in Melbourne, Australia.

Brilliant show!

I was pleasantly surprised the band did "Silver" live. I assumed that "Silver' was a studio only track.

Live version is excellent with Kim Deal's vocals and playing at their peak.

[OzzInter]

The slide guitar adds a whole new dimension to this song.

Love this tune!

[heyitsmejojo]

sooo?

[mojuak]

@obsesivefunatica pourquoi ?

[kylewaka]

farkn good song

[616geek]

<3 it ^^

[EnterTheMold]

what a haunting tune!

[catsxb]

I love love love this band. I saw them at the Wiltern. Sounds good live too!

[guitarhero124]

I love this song. It seems so... wacked, but in an amazing way.

[ePRO999]

Trippy. The song fucks with my mind I LOVE IT

[zenrarity]

Their voices actually sound like violins. That's so trippy.

[Nickstradamus]

this song reminds me of the desert at night.

[abcdefgzzzzz]

OMG are they gonna play this on the Doolittle tour?

I have tickets =]

[cruiserscreek]

I'll be shouting it out, aswell as other assorted b-sides. Going on 7th, may see you there!

[abcdefgzzzzz]

Haha I'm going on the 7th too.

Any idea is they're gonna play Dancing the Manta Ray?

That would be my dream come true :P

[AoifeNiPhleiminn]

I saw them last night they played all of doolittle and a lot of b - sides, was amazing hope ya have a good time! :)

[AllRiseForDrEvil]

Me too!!!!! I hope they will be doing Manta Ray!

[Zynismus]

they played it in frankfurt! have fun!

[rwprifive]

kim rules!!!

[mrgeebaby86]

yeh this song is deep, it catches my mood lately

pixies were/are fukin ace band

[pacman1pacman1]

Yo, love men.

[rwprifive]

kim rules

[0okamino]

Doolittle is the soundtrack to the lives of all Pirate Bandito Gunslingers from space.

[Tonelimefizk]

This song describes me to the bones. Even though I don't even know what it's about.

I fucking love it. One of my top three Pixies songs.

I might overdramatic, but this song makes me CRY.

[cloudofpie]

your right.

(you ARE overdramatic)

[pacman1pacman1]

Idiot.

[almightyjoey]

There's something about this song. It's really weird. It's so different to the rest of the album.

(meant in a positive way.)

[G4Morgan]

I like this song.

[blackpoolbison]

ferst

[pacman1pacman1]
