The Fun Machine Took a Shit and Died ( old studio version)

[robslater90]

so much more trashy but still good!

[Schloonktapooxis]

if this was mixed with the finished version it would sound like the craziest QOTSA song ever

[SergeantBasterd]

Does anyone know where this song was meant to go on Lullabies To Paralyze? They WERE planning on putting this on the album, until it was "stolen." (ARTsNL is a thief!) This is one of my favorite songs by them, so I might just plug this one in to where it was going to be. It would be a good album closer, in my opinion. You see, you think the album's over with LSG, then the CD craps out on you with this glorious number.

[Schloonktapooxis]

@SergeantBasterd ArtsNL wasn't responsible for stealing this song, ArtsNL didn't steal this song, this song WASN'T stolen. Do you even know the story behind this song? This song wouldn't be made available if QOTSA released it as it was, and it was released as it was, if you want to hear "stolen" work, listen to the work on Toxicity II (or the pre-released songs from Steal This Album) by System of a Down. THOSE were stolen and uploaded, or so SoaD says. But you won't really ever know.

[SergeantBasterd]

@Schloonktapooxis Dude, it was a joke. I know the story. I assumed that everyone else did, too.

[Schloonktapooxis]

@SergeantBasterd i don't think people would get the story behind the Fun Machine Took a Shit, because it's complicated and again you don't really know if it's actually stolen or just uploaded by the band just to cause fun ruckus, and plus, I was high so I didn't really read halfway through your description before I started to get all defensive about it rofl

and besides that i guess you could say artsnl is a thief

he's jacking views for an awesome QOTSA song

but for good measure

[SirStonezALot]

@Schloonktapooxis Dude the tapes were just left in a different studio and the band didn't know it at first, until after Lullabies To Paralyze was released (it was planned to be on that album). THAT is the story behind The Fun Machine, Josh Homme said it himself. Just sayin

♪ Young, Dumb, Drinkin semen

Small pond kind of dreamin'

Why don't you take a swim? ♪

best lyrics...ever!

[HardcoreSNiper]

Don't think it's mark. It might be Josh and Alain.

[DJEggoYo]

where is that pic from at 2:59 with them on laptops?

[MCreats]

The DVD live version is better than the others. ;)

[Iwant2rally]

i prefer this version myself

[AvonStonerRock]

Kick ass! I like the new version better, but this one is still awesome.

[skylerd]

dude you've got it ass backwards about which recording is the new and old one

[ArtsNL]

Nope!

[tehkraft]

he's actually right, technically this version was re-recorded for england as a special bonus to people who bought tix to the cancelled shows. the one from era vulgaris, though released later was actually from the original tapes that they thought were stolen from the lullabies sessions.

[RMHendrickson]

@tehkraft What? Really???

[RMHendrickson]

@skylerd ArtsNL is right. This is the original version. The new one is longer and sounds more polished. I prefer this one...

[TheBronzeKing]

this makes me laugh every single time. classic qotsa.

[MOTARDkamikaze]

Ceazy cool!! 5*

[DearTroll]

"The Fun Machine Took a Shit and Died" Funniest title ever!

[danzl]

its no laughing matter. what would you do if your fun machine up and took a shit on you? no more porn, no more qotsa music videos, no more facebook.

[Kyussist]

@danzl actually the fun machine is a synthie which appeared to make some funny sounds before it finally broke.

[damangt]

THEY ALL SOUND DIFFERNT BUT THE SAME

[Conifer44]

im not sure but i think i can hear Mark Lanegan's voice behind Josh's, i prefer the newer version but this is just as kick ass as any of their DS songs.

[SINY10304WTKB]

One of the coolest songs that i have ever heard.

[bulbythepirate]

Dude, did it say something about drinking semen?!? Disgusting and random!!! LOL

[MMacmet]

couldn't you find the lyrics on the web? They're in fact not so random. And it's 'drinking seamen' :P

[damangt]

dude wat genre is this its so randomly awsome

[Skatermandudeguy]

lol, it's Stoner Rock

(no serously, it is....)

[damangt]

well its so good i spent a week finding era vulgaris its fuckin mint

[mryouwontrememberme]

WUH? wuh? *laughs*

lol

[z01da7691]

I like this version A LOT better. its sounds rougher. i like that about it.

[assitch6]

i prefer the newer one... this is still pretty cool though

[SouthernPachyderm]

Best Queens song ever!

[ArtsNL]

i don't agree with u, are u sure u know all songs?

[SouthernPachyderm]

I'm pretty sure I've heard just about every Queens, Dessert Sessions and Kyuss song released...

[WHOM3television]

awesome name

[ALCUS52]

It sounds better rougher. Like it.

[Ugholderme]

Sounds like Tom Waits

[NalXame]

this version is so cool and raw, thanks for the upload ^^

[FernandoDANTE]

Wow, this sounds half-finished when compared to the new version.

[pinhead13]

damn, pretty grungy. lol, sounds like it should be on the desert sessions

[aahmm]

[purefites]

[LLMelvinL]
