Frank Black's music is the most under appreciated music of the late 20th century. Every song he sings touches you somewhere. Some sad, some funny, some beautiful, and all are a step above the stuff his peers made. Frank Black shows me what music should be!
Like this version better than the honeycomb album version. But either way it's a great song, and the lyrics are amazing. Lots to analyze and wonder about.
When Frank Black is in touch with his muse, he's one of the most dynamic songwriters I know; I miss seeing him move farther away from Black Francis and delve deeper into Frank Black. The FB moniker seemed to allow him more flexibility with regard to his musicianship. He had a great run though, but what could be more lucrative than the Pixies. I don't fault him for the revival, but I can't fault myself for missing the complexity of Frank Black.

You're fat x 3. And your mom's ugly. And your cat has the shits. And your dad has a fat lip. And you auntie is need of medication due to advanced muscular fibrosis. stupid.
get teenager of the year. it's just frank black, no catholics yet. it ROCKS! although very different than pixies. and once you listen to that one, then just get all of 'em. frank black, frank black and the catholics, black francis, all of it. he's the man!
amen.. can sing in so many expressive ways.. amazing.. its a toss up for me between him and thom yorke for great singin , writing,strumming,etc... 2 masters that we are lucky to have lived with
as far as i know he recored aloooooot of records. and went on tour for years with black flag. and alot of people like his music. what the fuck is being a musician then? not like somebody was writing the music for him or anything
thx, finemess, but i dont think audio hijack works for mac... :(
Any help?
Anyway, I've since checked out Moris Tepper and am glad for it; I love exactly that folk/rock mix. Do you have anymore names in that vein? Not easy to get ahold of that stuff in germany...
you can try using a shareware app like audio hijack. this tune sounds better than the record because tepper's vibe is present - a phenomenal singer/songwriter in his own right.
I love this particular song..it reminds me everytime I hear it of my future wife..frank black,pixies or otherwise,has always been an artist that easily stirred my emotions..
Prolific songwriter and a rare talent. I have followed him from his time with The Pixies through to the present and everything he produces is quality. Keep on doing it Frank.
En 1997 una chica llamada lauren, estaba caminando en un bosque,despues desaparecio de repente nunca nadie la encontro hasta el 2000 cuando otra chica llama Mary encontro su cuerpo y unas marcas en su pecho decian: no era lo suficiente hermosa" y ahora que haz leido esto ella aparecera en tu espejo diciendo que no eres lo suficientemente hermoso y te matara!(por cierto la chica llamada Mary murio poco despues)Para poder salvarte pega esto en otros 5 videos.ESTO ES CIERTO
from his time in the pixies till now it has all be great,i have grown up listening to frank black.now in my mid thirties i find it just as good as it's ever been ,just progressed in a new direction,lyric wise and sound wise
How many times do you have to save my life, Frank Black? My soul? My heart?

To me your in the same class as The Wipers, The Gun Club, Graham Parker and all the other top musicians.
Give me a call when your in Amsterdam Again, Frank.
I liked what you did at Herman Brood's funeral.
Just leave a message at 'The Dutch Perspective'.
And I'll contact you.
