ExiledInIllinois Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 This ones for you Dean: "Worry the bottle Mamma, it's grapefruit wine Kick off your high heel sneakers, it's party time..." Now... Is it really "worry?" I always thought it was "hurry." What does "worry" the bottle mean! Explanation please...

Mrs. Beerball Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Branch Deanians, oh my goodness. That's funny! Green Day came out of that scene and I really like them. I still remember when I bought Aja. I wore it out. Those songs hit you in so many places, lyrically and musically. So intelligent. And the backing musicians! A who's who of the greatest session guys of the era. I'd never heard anything like it. When BB and I were newlyweds, we played it a lot on our stay at home date night dinners (we were too poor to go out).
BillsFanM.D. Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 You owe Gug some royalties... I know, very painful. We are going to have to start going very deep!

RuntheDamnBall Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Well I think by naming the bands whom the Dead Boys were influential, you have already made my point. But I'll take the bait and say Steely Dan is mentioned as an influence, or at least as being admired, by many diverse bands and musicians. They are regularly sampled by hip-hop/rap bands, folk, jazz fusion, and rock bands alike. I can hardly think of a musician I have met that doesn't love Steely Dan. Off the top of my head musicians as diverse as, Joe Jackson, Kanye West. That settles it, now I truly hate Steely Dan.

The rest of it: "...And I'm real real gone Real real gone I can't stand up by myself Don't you know I need your help And I'm real real gone Some people say You can make it on your own Oh, you can make it if you try I know better now You can't stand up alone Oh, baby, that is why I'm real real gone I can't stand up by myself Don't you know? I need your help You're a friend of mine and I'm real real gone And Sam Cooke is on the radio And the night is filled with space And your fingertips touch my face You're a friend of mine and I'm real real gone I'm real gone now Oh Lord, I got hit by a bow and arrow Got me down to the very marrow You're a friend of mine and I'm real real gone And I'm real real gone, I'm real gone Wilson Pickett said, "In the midnight hour That's when my love comes tumbling down" Solomon Burke said, "If you need me Why don't you call me" James Brown said, "When you're tired of what you got Try me" Gene Chandler said, "There's a rainbow in my soul"" Couldn't resist.

RuntheDamnBall Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Morning, pry the windows open Let in what's so terrifying Summer is as faded as a lone cicada call Memories so bright I gotta squint just to recall Regret the words I've bitten More than the ones I ever said

boyst Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Blackbird singing in the dead of night ... Paul McCartney was on Stern and gave a tremendous story about how that song was written. I can't listen to it the same anymore, it lost some fantasy and beauty when you realized it was so murked up and mudded in sadness.
