Manics - Ocean Spray

[treyzzer]

correct me if im wrong but the one that wrote the lyrics is as always the bassist nickie wire,,,, and not JDB

[boeingbloke777]

this is the only Manics song JDB wrote the lyrics before. It wasnt to be released, but then Nicky heard James playing it and convinced him to release it.

@treyzzer

it's about the death of JDB's mother. JDB wrote it because cranberry juice (Ocean Spray) can help prevent certain cancers, which is how James' mum died. Nicky didn't write this one.

@donners1982 AHEM!!! nicky wire wrote the first verse, and JDB wrote the rest, despite rumours.

[boeingbloke777]

this is the only time i've seen him use this guitar, but then again he has millions to use, but the white les paul will always remind me of JDB.

Greatest song ever! forever....ocean spray

[duffsmoses]

The songs about his mother dying of cancer!

[highburyscarlet]

Every time JDB sings this this you can see the pain in his face. His mother thought cranberry juice would do her good hence the title Ocean Spray. Very moving
