Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - O'Malley's Bar

 

I am tall and I am thin

of an enviable height

and I've been known to be quite handsome

from a certain angle and in a certain light

 

well I entered into O'Malley's

said "O'Malley, I have a thirst"

O'Malley merely smiled at me

and said "you wouldn't be the first"

 

I knocked on the bar and pointed

to a bottle on the shelf

and as O'Malley poured me out a drink

I sniffed and crossed myself

 

my hand decided that the time was nigh

and for a moment it slipped from view

and when it return it fairly burned

with confidence anew

 

well the thunder from my steely fist

made all the glasses jangle

when I shot him I was so handsome

it was the light, it was the angle...

baby, take off your beret

'Arthur Smith sings Leonard Cohen' is one of the funniest performances I've ever heard. I wish I could find it on CD.

 

I also heard some amazing guitar stuff from Antonio Forcione a few days ago - I've never heard of him outside of Boothby Graffoe's radio comedy show, but he's a fantastic player.

Well, I just recently put together a CD track to add to GTA: Vice City on my X-Box, trying desperately to keep the 80's theme of the game. Yeah, I'm a nerd. So I've pretty much just listened to all the following:

 

a-Ha - Take On Me

AC/DC - Hell's Bells

AC/DC - Snowballed

Amy Holland - She's On Fire

Dio - Rainbow in the Dark

Eddie Money - Take Me Home Tonight

Genesis - Turn It On Again

Genesis - That's All

Huey Lewis - I want a New Drug

Metallica - For Whom the Bell Tolls :rolleyes:

Metallica - Master of Puppets

Michael Jackson - Thriller :blush10:

Motley Crue - Wild Side

Ozzy Osbourne - Crazy Train

Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer

Pink Floyd - Run Like Hell

Queen - Another One Bites the Dust

Sammy Hagar - I Can't Drive 55

Tom Petty - The Waiting

Van Halen - Panama

Ha, not just me who made an eighties-centric music list for Vice. Don't feel ashamed! Mine was all about the metal, though. Kreator, Dark Angel, Nuclear Assault (!), Judas Priest and a little bit of Somewhere In Time-era Maiden.

 

Currently listening to: Constellation-SGR

Cake - Commissioning a Symphony in C

 

completely filling the palace concert hall

it's warm and golden like an oven that's wide open

it has a melody both happy and sad

built on victorious young triads

you've entered the room with great caution

though no one in the hall is even watching

they are transfixed; they are forgetting just to breathe

they are so taken by your symphony in C

baby, take off your beret

CCR - Lodi

 

if i only had a dollar

for every song i've sung

every time i had to play

while people sat there drunk

 

you know i'd take the next train

back to where i live

oh lord, stuck in Lodi again

Dissection eh? Those guys really aren't bad at all... I've heard a lot of metal bands that are worse. But then again I've always liked the more melodic metal bands. So which one of them is the dead one?

 

I finally posted my homemade recording of The Lemonheads' "The Outdoor Type" over at CrimsonKeep.

I think the candles really topped the cake. :D

 

One hell of a maestro at making listenable black metal though. RIP(though I doubt it)
