This song's only deficiency is that there aren't any Kim vocals. I sort of wish Frank would've let her do that little talking bit in the middle at the very least.
@crappybassist96 Oh, was this that time period where they weren't really speaking to each other, and he wouldn't let her use any of her own ideas on the songs?
@JackBlair2 Implying Frank's weight has anything to do with his talent. If you're so focused on image, you should go listen to some faggoty My Chemical Romance or Avenged Sevenfold.
Frank Black is fat, whatever. He's also one of the greatest musicians out there.
The way they started this.....the slow, spaced out/drugged out into....is amazing. It's only a few seconds long, but it's forever burned into my consciousness.
At 0:30 it sounds like an intro to a Rush song. I swear parts of this song were lifted from a tune by Canadian band Rush. Just can't put my finger on it...
This song has twice occurred, and now it's TIME TO GO AWAY ON HOLIDAY!
I'm not 100% sure what this song is about, but I do know that it's another Pixies song that kicks you right in the teeth. Black Francis really knew how to properly open and close an album. This and Cecilia Ann/Rock Music are my two favorite album openers.
Because Kim hates Chucky's guts, that's why. The only reason that she went out on the reunion tour was because she was just as broke as the other three.
They hate each other. That's why the Pixies broke up. It's a very well known feud in the music world. He didn't like her popularity, and substance abuse. She didn't like his controlling attitude. He tired to fire her, and then broke up the band, and didn't talk to her for 12 years. Google it, and see for yourself.
They don't wanna mess with the myth I think... But remember "Bam Thwok" a few years back, and they've done 1 or 2 covers("Aint That Pretty At All") around the reunion.....I also think that a few tracks on "Bluefinger" were intended to be Pixies tracks, as he is credited as being Black Francis on that album..
It's just like that interview with the ungratefull reporter who laughs at him. He then proceeds to play wave of mutilation accoustic and sings the guitar in himself!
Did you Truthers really have to pollute a Pixies video with your batshitinsanery? Please, stick to organising ant-NWO marches in WoW and leave the non crazy people alone to enjoy the music.
the man playing the acoustic is bob santiago, who i presume is joeys brother. hope that helps, awesome song, saw them live at v festival sydney last week, they went off, couldnt believe how good they were after a breakup.
I don't buy the Mafia pulled off the JFK assasination. I look at the people with REAL power. I find it interesting that JFK was only one of 2 presidents who tried to remove the Federal Reserve. Know what happened to the other president? Assasinated. America has been controlled by the world banks. They make mafia look like peanuts. These are the people with power. They control the U.S. today and orchestrated 9/11.
Physics proove that Kennedy was killed by Oswald, he had enough time to fire and aim in 8 seconds, the motorcade's route was not tampered with it was set and advertised weeks in advance, Oswald was the only one running from the building he fired from, he brutally shot and killed a police officer who tried to question him, and don't you think if the mob hired Oswald that they would have given him a better rifle? And 9/11 was not orchestrated by the government. There, enjoy the video everyone :)
of course..........the government never has any ill-intentions up there sleeve - never, ever - as for Oswald you never mention the countless reports of gunfire coming from the grassy knoll - the confiscated cameras, mysterious deaths, and bullet holes in the curb....and I totally believe that a handful of terrorists could turn a plane around and smash it perfectly, not once, but twice into the WTC with minimal training - ANYBODY could do that right? "let's roll" - more propaganda
I never said the government was good. It is possible for a handful of men to have killed the pilots, lock themselves in the cockpit (well most of them did,) and fly it into both buildings, and I don't know what you mean by "perfectly" because all they had to do was take out one floor and the building would collapse under the weight of the higher floors. And you never told me why Oswald shot a police officer, was found with murder weapon, and was the only one running. Did he
