did lol creme write this? what a stupid question im on the internet. in anycase i LOVE this song !!! good writing good harmonies time change. if of montreal was a band of the 70's they might sound like this.
i all ways thought of this song as one that got me to think about all the little things that go in to something to make it a working and perfectly balanced thing, (Minestrone). and after we move on to the next way of life we will be unable to move around and function. "gather ye rose buds wile you can for the same flowers that are flowering today tomorrow may be dieing."kinda thing.
I feel like rolling a great big joint and going did that guy that was just over there think i was a jerk, because i am probably a jerk, but life is a minastrone suspended in deap freeze
discovered them in 2000 but im old enough to remember them. but i didnt pay too much attention at the time,now
im hooked ,just love this and many other songs.They are a terribly underated band!and 10cc are cool ,very cool! wish the original band would get back together and then youd see how the music is silently gaining power.
Leaning on the tower of Pisa, had an eyeful of the tower in France .... the seat of learning and the flush of success relieves a constipated mind! Brilliant lyrics! Yet The Original Soundtrack is a criminally ignored album.
Off one of my favorite albums from 10cc,,, "The Original Soundtrack" It was great the whole way through... play and replay and replay... Just an A in Albums!!!
10cc was as inventive as a band like Blur. But because the so called music critics could never class 10cc as being 'cool', they will remain forever lost in the past.
Ive never seen this particular clip of Minestrone but a good one isnt it and very rare to see Paul Burgess on the drums to in this line up in a promo vid,nice one.
Great band, great sound, great lyrics!
But let us not forget
Life is a minestrone
Served up with parmesan cheese
Death is a cold Lasagne
Suspended in deep freeze

I love this song but does anyone else notice that Lol seems a little pissed off about something here?

Actually, Une Nuit A Paris was originally going to take up a whole side.
I think songs like The Film Of My Love, Blackmail and The Second Sitting For The Last Supper are superb. Still, each to their own!

Try saying something about the Manchesterband10 cc and all the far you'll probably ever get is:
" Life is a minestrone!..a cold lasagna "

I agree. It's a shame that 10cc will always be underrated.

Anybody know about who directed their videos. Their camera work is usually really creative.

This video, together with the promos for INIL and IMFM, was produced by Bruce Gowers.

Thank you for this great rare clip! The more footage you can find of the original 10cc lineup in particular, the better!
