Where Angels Play - Ian Brown

Lyrics:
Come with me to a place no eyes have ever seen
A million miles from here where no one's ever been
God-given grace and a holy heaven face
I'm on the edge of something shattering
I'm coming through

Ok, let's fly she says, this carpet's made for two
This ugly little box, no place for me and you
Our carpet falls on a dew-fresh dappled glade
Take a look around, there's something happening
All the colors fade

I don't want you now, bang bang bang gone, ooh
I don't need you now, the seeds are sown, ooh
Bang bang pretty pretty, bang bang
I don't think so, no no
I don't think so, no no
Bang bang, bang bang

Down below, the country rolls like a mighty boiling sea
The warm red sun gives up and sinks into the trees
But I'm no fool, I can't stand here betrayed
Take a look around there's something happening
All the colors fade

I don't want you now, bang bang bang gone, ooh
I don't need you now, the seeds are sown, ooh
Bang bang pretty pretty, bang bang
I don't think so, no no
I don't think so, no no
Bang bang, bang bang

@DDDoppleganger1 Anyway pal, what did you think of my initial comment about this vid being close to the Roses?? I think he is best when he doesn't 'force it' if you know what I mean but maybe it is just the lighter song that suits him these days. Still love Brownie. : )

[ButherLi55ett]

@DDDoppleganger1 Yeah I agree about Ian, in fact I always liked his attitude in the way he sang and how he sounded like the street or the terraces. I also think his voice perfectly fitted the darker side of Second Coming, some people don't get it but I think it was supposed to be like that. Anyway, good luck to them and to you I'm obviously not against them in anyway, I'm not that small minded. However, part of me still thinks it's just more rumours, 'stone cold rumours' after reading Mani!

@ButherLi55ett

They've been rehearsing all summer, Ian's voice has always been an issue but it was never about him singing like Sam Cooke in the first place. the passing of time won't mean fuck all to Mani & Reni, Squire will be a little rusty but has time before early spring gigs to get his shit together. It's all really reliant on the "already recorded material" being as good as their very best tunes to peak interest in the meantime. I'll let you know after the gig if they break my heart.

[ButherLi55ett]

@DDDoppleganger1 I don't think it's good at all if that is the case. Ian's voice sadly is shocking these days, though excellent on records still. As for the thing in general, playing their old songs is gonna be pretty naff and I doubt they can do anything with new ones given what I've said about Ian - plus how rusty are the others apart from Mani? I will stick to the old Roses records myself, though obviously will be interested nonetheless if anything that happens out of pure curiosity.

@ButherLi55ett

Wrong. 9am Tuesday (tomorrow) The Roses will be 4 again.

[ButherLi55ett]

I reckon this is as close to the Roses as we'll ever get ever again. It's not quite it, but it's pretty good.
