Look - a message about how Gs can be softies too!

I spoke to your son, the other day, and told him Uncle Dre got him
The Lord must be accidentally pulling your file
Cause I'm still paging you, 911, straight in denial
Prayin you get it, but no man can choose the card he was dealt
You either quit, or you gon' play it like you get it
I done been through all emotions, from in shock, to keepin a poker face
To straight breakin down and showin all emotions
I'm anxious to believe in real G's don't cry
If that's the truth, then I'm realizin I ain't no gangsta
It's just not me, but you know I'ma always ride wit you
I miss you, sometimes I wish I just died wit you

but on the same album he also says:

Bitch nigga, a bitch nigga
Bitch nigga, HELLA bitch nigga
Youse a bitch nigga, motherfucker bitch nigga
A bitch nigga.. a bitch nigga

[Bonjoy]

Would have to go with Bubba on this one. Would rather listen to the sound of someone drilling a hole in my head than Oasis. And PF lyrics are very deep and portentious say I.

[Bubba]

Bitch nigga, a bitch nigga
Bitch nigga, HELLA bitch nigga
Youse a bitch nigga, motherfucker bitch nigga
A bitch nigga.. a bitch nigga

But what do you think he's really trying to say there? I think there is deep meaning underlying his anger. I suspect he may have issues with Bitch Nigga's

[dave]

I liked freddie mercury's take on this kinda thing. He viewed his music as disposable, just a bit of entertainment - he said stuff like "its just tomorrows fish & chip paper darling" or sometihng like that. and as a result wrote some of the most enduring pop/rock music of all time. I bet if he'd have taking it all right seriously like all the bloody miserable tortured genuises that churn out album after album of suicide music these days then all queen stuff from the 70s would have been shit.  of course you can read meaning into loads of the lyrics etc but i think in their case the lyrics were an means to an end, to produce dope tracks. : word.

[Johnny Brown]

how can you have any pudding when you haven't finished your meat?

[Bubba]

He viewed his music as disposable

Well, he wasn't wrong there  

[a dense loner]

when i said they're not the band they was, i actually agree that they're now shite. however, the first few albums were genius.
am not sayin floyd don't come out with deep lyrics, am sayin that people who say they write deep lyrics n meanin from the heart all the time r talkin out of their arse n anyone who thinks somebody does this is a gullible fool.

[Bubba]

I fail to see any genius associated with any of Oasis' stuff, but that's just me. Completely overrated imho.

So do you think all songs with meaningful lyrics just happened by accident or via a cynical desire to pose as such, rather than actually being from the heart?

[fatboySlimfast]

Never had you down as a queen fan Dave :shock:

wat got me was how people were 'shcoked' whenit was revealed that he was gay and had died of aids, my sister actually said 'well you wouldnt know would you'


yep , no hint of gayness there, not at all, no sir eee

[Bubba]

[dave]

i don't know what you mean  :roll:

[a dense loner]

blubbs you have just implied that queen were shit. when in fact one of the most influential groups n talented songwriters/performers of all time. next you will be tellin me that the moon is made of green cheese, cos i personnally have no proof of it not being. there's nowt as queer as folk.

the silent reproach of a million distant eyes

[a dense loner]

apparently scouse's chat up was "how big's your cock", n i don't think he was talkin to the farmer

[dave]

Never had you down as a queen fan Dave :shock:

i was brought up on queen you see. my dad listened to queen on vinyl, and most of me uncles. during the school holidays when me mum was working i'd be at my grandmas in the day time and she's had an early VCR, on of those top-loading ferguson videostars, with the remote on a wire. just about the only video they had in the house (exlucing scotch recorded videos housed in those plastic cases that looked like antique books) was my uncle john's video version of queen's greatest hits, so i would watch that all day while me grandma did her knitting. When i got my first walkman (it was so big it had a shoulder strap and took a car battery) my uncle david did my a tape copy of queen's greatest hits - it was on a black Dixon's cassete and he'd put Radio Ga GA on the end anall cos that was new out. Also i'm pretty sure that one of the first CDs i ever owned was queens greatest hits. How could i not like queen? :

[Bubba]

blubbs you have just implied that queen were shit. when in fact one of the most influential groups n talented songwriters/performers of all time.

Actually, I used to really like Queen, but that was before I discovered decent music  

Were they really that influential?

Talented songwriters?

I give you:

Bicycle bicycle bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle bicycle bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride it where I like

You say black I say white
You say bark I say bite
You say shark I say hey man
Jaws was never my scene
And I don't like Star Wars
You say Rolls I say Royce
You say God give me a choice
You say Lord I say Christ
I don't believe in Peter Pan
Frankenstein or Superman
All I wanna do is

Bicycle bicycle bicycle

Hmmmm.....

[dave]

again bubba, you've just proved the lyrics are secondary to a good tune. they could have sung "wank wank wank" to that tune and it'd still have been a hit.

[a dense loner]

i'll give you that one  

fatbottomed girls are comin your way

[SA Chris]

Chillingly, the sountrack to Flash Gordon was the first Album I ever bought. But then I thought both the film and the band were great (I was 11). Slightly more credibly, the first record I ever bought was Rapture, by Blondie.

[Bubba]

again bubba, you've just proved the lyrics are secondary to a good tune. they could have sung "wank wank wank" to that tune and it'd still have been a hit.

All that proves is that the undemanding pop-buying public will buy any old shite.

[a dense loner]

i still watch flash whenever it's on. be one hell of a planet you men come from

[dave]

GORDON'S ALIVE!

[SA Chris]

"Death to MING!!!"

"Send the war rocket Ajax to bring back his body!"

"Flash, I love you, but we only have 48 hours to save the Planet"

Bong Bong Bong Bong Bong Bong Bong

[dave]

isn't it 14 hours to save the earth?

[a dense loner]

dave's right, i think you were just gettin caught up in the moment chris :wink:

[fatboySlimfast]

And who could forget the soft pr0n version
