That album you've borrowed of mine...

 

LINK!!!!

 

 

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Hmmm

 

No Robbie ..... or Usher!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

No sure Usher counts as a British album though, Thorns!!

 

 

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

You never replied to this, Claire.

 

 

[Claire!]

I'm still listening to the Stone Roses!!!!!! Brilliant album!!!!!!

 

Had it wake my up this morning actually!!!!!!!!!!

 

I did however find that their style of music sounded more 1960's style (sort of) rather than the 1980's rock type. I think this is why it stands out to me as well.

 

 

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

That's kinda the point!

 

Don't think anyone ever claimed they were "1980's rock".

 

Would certainly be in my Top 3 post-Beatles albums!!

 

 

[Claire!]

They were a band from the 80's though? Late 80's i thought!!!!!!

 

And i've now listened to the sex pistols!!!!!!! Interesting is all i can say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Yeah.

 

1989 that album. But the Stone Roses never did '80s Rock'.

 

Stop pigeon-holing, and just enjoy the music.

 

 

[Claire!]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!! I assumed (i should never assume!!!!!! I've been told before!!!!!!!!!) that it would be 80's rock styley!!!!!!!!

 

I am enjoying it Zeal!!!!!!!! Can't wait for the next lesson in proper music!!!!!!!!! Who would you recommend i listen to next?!!!!!

 

Ohhhhhh, i can show you my holiday video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

(that has nothing to do with this i know, but thought i's suggest it!!!!!!!!!!!)

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

When you know every chiming chord, bass riff and shimmering beat on that Stone Roses album off by heart, I'll give you your next lesson.

 

It won't be in the Sex Pistols.

 

 

[Claire!]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

OK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Well i havn't really taken to the sex pistols, not after what they did to bambi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Actually, you can borrow The La's next.

 

 

[Claire!]

ooooohhhhh, who are they?!!!!! never heard of them!!!!!!!!!!

 

Can't wait!!!!!!!! My musical taste is widening and before you know it, i'll be going to the same gigs as you!!!!!!! Yey!!!!!!!!!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Yeah. Not with me, though.

 

You can borrow my CD of Stone Roses b-sides 1988-1990 too. One of the few bands (along with Oasis and the Beatles) whose b-sides are as good, and in places even better than their album tracks.

 

Stone Roses b-sides like Standing Here, Mersey Paradise and Going Down are just sheer class.

 

The first three tracks on the Stone Roses album you borrowed (I Wanna Be Adored, She Bangs The Drums and Waterfall) are just faultless. I cannot think of another album that has such an incredible trio of songs to start things off.

 

And I hope you don't just listen to the first half and then switch it off, because the final four songs on the album - Made Of Stone, Shoot You Down, This Is The One and I Am The Resurrection - are simply majestic.

 

 

[Claire!]

I have listened to both albums that you told me to listen to through at least three times.

 

You told me to listen to Jodi Mitchel 3 times in a dark room (which i have done) and i then listened to the Stone Roses i dunno how many times now, coz i recorded the album onto my MP3 player and i listened to it in Magaluf on the beach!!!!!!!!!!

[Claire!]

Actually, have you heard Rachel Stevens new song? I don't think it is a cover as such, but the tune is so familiar, and i'm sure it's taken from an 80's track (maybe it's just me???)

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

It's not a cover I don't think, but it's a cool song. Very 80s, and a similar sound to Girls Aloud.

 

 

[Claire!]

I know!!! I like it, and the Girls aloud one is good as well!!!!!

 

That Satalite one is also really good!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JKiF]

Satelite one????

She Bangs The Drums

 

I can feel the earth begin to move

Hear my needle hit the groove

And spiral through another day

I hear my song begin to say

Kiss me where the sun don't shine

The past was yours but the future's mine

You're all out of time

 

I don't feel too steady on my feet

I feel hollow I feel weak

Passion fruit and holy bread

Feed my gut and ease my head

Through the early morning sun

I can see her, here she comes

She bangs the drums

 

Have you seen her have you heard

The way she plays there are no words

To describe the way I feel

How could it ever come to pass

She'll be the first she'll be the last

To describe the way I feel

The way I feel
