Once the dogs have quit their barking"Son," my neighbor said to me. "Know the emptiness of talking blue the same old sheep." Run - I'll do no more this walking Haunted by a past I just can't see Anymore...Who - Will get me to a party? Who - Do I have yet to meet? You - You look a bit like coffee And you taste a bit like me...Just listen to me I won't pretend to Understand the movement of the wind Or the waves out in the ocean or how Like the hours I change softly slowly... <--some of the lyrics
As with almost all music, the lyrics are there to add structure and an additional dimension to the song. The lyrics are slurred and impossible to understand, but really, they don't have to be understandable. The feel is imparted and that's what is important.
I guess, what it needs to be compared to is Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky. Who knows what the fuck any of it means, but you get the gist and the image just from reading a bunch of gibberish.
Who - Will get me to a party? Who - Do I have yet to meet? You - You look a bit like coffee And you taste a bit like me How - Can I keep me from moving? Now - I need a change of scenery Just listen to me I won't pretend to Understand the movement of the wind Or the waves out in the ocean or how Like the hours I change softly slowly Plainly blindly oh me oh my!
But let me tell you I have never planned To let go of the hand that has been Clinging by its thick country skin To my yellow country teeth Far - Far away from West Virginia I - Will try on New York City Explaining that the sky holds the Wind the sun rushes in and a child With a shotgun can shoot down Honeybees that sting BUT THIS BOY COULD USE A LITTLE STING!
Seriously, guys. Use your full potential do something beyond your pretentious snobbery. I'm sure they could make good music. And for the rest of you who aspire to be "indie" musicians: Quit trying to sound like The Smiths, Sonic Youth, The Beatles, and any of that 80's new wave. Innovate. Don't recreate.
@nylon53mm To begin with: Once - The dogs have quit their barking "Son," my neighbour said to me. "Know the emptiness of talking blue the same old sheep." Run - I'll do no more this walking Haunted by a past I just can't see Anymore Anymore Well, it goes on.
He fucking 1/2 half ass-ed the shit out of this. I'd be livid if I paid in order to see that performance and that was all he gave to us...
