Blur-There Are Too Many Of Us [youtu.be]

FearlessFly comments on Mar 10, 2020:

(from rollingstone.com) As the song’s title suggests – like Paul McCartney’s “Too Many People” before it – Blur’s latest finds Albarn tackling the issue of overpopulation, conformity and the futility of religion with incredible simplicity as he sings, “There are too many of us / In tiny houses, here and there / Just passing out somewhere / But you don’t care / There are too many of us / It’s plain to see / We all believe in praying / For our immortality.”

Blur: Song 2 [youtu.be]

FearlessFly comments on Mar 10, 2020:

According to guitarist Graham Coxon, "Song 2" was intended to be a joke on the record company. Albarn had recorded an acoustic demo of the song which was slower but featured the song's distinctive "woo-hoo" chorus in whistle form. Coxon then suggested that they pump up the speed and perform the song loudly, with Coxon deliberately seeking out an amateurish guitar sound. From there, Coxon told Albarn to tell the record company that they wanted to release the song as a single to "blow the ... labels' heads off". To Coxon's surprise, record executives reacted positively. When asked if the band had any idea of the song's commercial appeal, Coxon replied, "We'd just thought it was way too extreme".

FearlessFly comments on Mar 9, 2020:

The song has been featured in the 2006 comedy film, Accepted. It was also used as the goal song of the Vancouver Canucks during their run to the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals. The Canucks started using the song again for the goal song at the beginning of the 2018-19 NHL season. The song also appeared in an episode of CSI: NY. The song was also featured in the soundtrack of the video game Tony Hawk's American Wasteland. "Holiday" was inspired by the music of Bob Dylan. Armstrong wanted to write something stronger than "American Idiot", with harsh language to illustrate his points. Armstrong felt that Republican politicians were "strategic" in alienating one group of people—for example, the gay community—in order to buy the votes of another. He later characterized the song as an outspoken "fuck you" to then-President George W. Bush.

Dark Towers is a book about financing questionable businesses. [facebook.com]

FearlessFly comments on Mar 9, 2020:

Library Journal New York Times finance editor Enrich (The Spider Network) weaves a cautionary tale out of Deutsche Bank's rise and fall, and its long, strange relationship with Donald Trump. Over the years, the bank made billions in risky loans to Trump, a repeat defaulter, with mixed results. Enrich traces the bank's 20th-century history, beginning with its collaboration with the Nazis during World War II and continuing with its transformation into an investment bank in an attempt to pursue Wall Street riches, its spurious weathering of the 2008 financial crisis, and its ultimate unraveling. For decades, Enrich says, the bank subordinated ethics, customer loyalty, and even lawful behavior to maximize short-term profits. In a twisting subplot, Enrich follows the revelations of the bank's misdeeds from the perspective of the son of a Deutsche Bank executive who committed suicide. VERDICT Part exposé, part mystery, Enrich's account is important because it illuminates Deutsche Bank's excesses and Trump's business practices. Readers of Andrew Sorkin's Too Big To Fail, which unveiled vulnerabilities in the financial industry, will find Enrich's more focused account equally compelling.

“Quasheba, Quasheba,” premiering below, was written by Birds of Chicago singer-songwriter Allison Russell as an attempt to reckon with and shed light on the singer’s ancestral roots in West African slavery. After the singer found out her family line can be traced back to an enslaved person named Quasheba, Russell felt compelled to pay tribute in song. “Such was her strength and resilience that she somehow survived the transatlantic crossing in the hold of a slave ship, and was eventually sold to a large sugar cane plantation in Grenada,” Russell writes in the album’s liner notes. “I wept to learn her name.”

FearlessFly comments on Mar 9, 2020:

Allison Russell, Amythyst Kiah, Rhiannon Giddens and Leyla McCalla perform as Our Native Daughters. Amythyst says the song “is linked to the history of intraracial discrimination, the idea that being a lighter shade of black is more desirable because it means that you look closer to being white than black…I thought of my experience as a black girl in a white suburban neighborhood in the 1990s, and how, once puberty hit, the doors of my neighbors would soon be suddenly closed to me. And thus the refrain and title of this song are intended to be an anthem for those who have been alienated and othered because of the color of their skin.”

Written by band leader Jeff Christie, it was offered to The Tremeloes, who recorded it with the intention of releasing it as a single early in 1970. The actual location of Yellow River in this song is not specified, although the author, Jeff Christie, is on record as saying that it was inspired by the idea of a soldier going home at the end of the American Civil War. As the song was released during the Vietnam War, it has been interpreted as being about a soldier leaving the U.S. Military at the end of his period of conscription.

Mike DeGagne of AllMusic has described "Don't Stop Believin'" as a "perfect rock song" and an "anthem", featuring "one of the best opening keyboard riffs in rock." The title of the song came from something keyboardist Jonathan Cain's father frequently told him when he was a struggling musician living on Los Angeles' Sunset Boulevard ready to give up because he was not having success in the music industry. Each time he would call home in despair, his father would tell him, "Don't stop believing or you're done, dude."

She was inspired to write "Strict Machine" based on images of the experiment and "more human aspects of machines and sex and control".

“Last Name”, tells the story of meeting a guy at a Vegas club, partying hard and marrying him as the night goes on to where she realizes she doesn’t even know his/her last name. The marriage brings about the Vegas campiness with an Elvis impersonator conducting the ceremony inside Chapel of the Flower’s, Victorian Chapel.

If It Carries On Like This We Are Moving To Morecambe...No, seriously... [youtube.com]

FearlessFly comments on Mar 5, 2020:

2011’s debut If It Carries On Like This We Are Moving To Morecambe and 2013’s follow-up Spooky Action both stirred a chunky and unfashionable soup of Helmet, Hüsker Dü and battered delay pedals. Whether or not they were intended to be, both were endearingly rough around the edges – a far cry from the glistening, honed crescendos of Explosions In The Sky et al. Instead they offered a spikier, reactive vision of instrumental rock, with a bit of punk’s spit and lack of polish.

(fromn folkworkds.com) Indeed, this “prairie mystic,” as the Boston Globe called her, makes her pro-immigrant position clear in the song she returns with as an encore—to an auditorium-wide standing ovation; no accompaniment necessary: Room at the Table for Everyone

. . . liked the movie (from wordsinthe bucket.com) A song about how greedy and materialistic our society is. Those who don't accept it, are forced to leave it. The album features 11 tracks: 9 originals written by Vedder and 2 cover songs. Society, is the result of a collaboration with American singer-songwriter Jerry Hannan, who actually wrote the song.

The song was redone by guitarist Zakk Wylde as a bonus track on the second reissue of the Black Label Society album Sonic Brew as well as on its own promotional E.P. called No More Tears. This song also is played in the Adam Sandler movie Little Nicky. In the final battle scene where Osbourne appears, "No More Tears" can be heard being played in the background.

This is my 1 weird video backing with a really good song: Stealer's Wheel; Stuck in the ...

Wwritten by Scottish musicians Gerry Rafferty and Joe Egan and originally performed by their band Stealers Wheel. Rafferty's lyrics are a dismissive tale of a music industry cocktail party written and performed as a parody of Bob Dylan's paranoia (the vocal impression, subject, and styling were so similar, listeners have wrongly attributed the song to Dylan since its release).

According to Weiland, the song dealt lyrically with a number of themes, particularly "honesty, lack of honesty, my new relationship with heroin." At the time he was having relationship troubles with his girlfriend, as he was using heroin while recording Purple but told her he no longer was. "She'd ask how I was doing, and I'd lie, say I was doing fine," he admits in his autobiography Not Dead and Not For Sale. "I imagined what was going through her mind when I wrote, 'Waiting on a Sunday afternoon for what I read between the lines, your lies, feelin' like a hand in rusted chain, so do you laugh or does it cry?

The recording features all the Wilburys except Bob Dylan as lead singers: George Harrison, Jeff Lynne and Roy Orbison sing the choruses in turn, while Tom Petty sings the verses. The song was mainly written by Harrison and was assigned to his publishing company, Umlaut Corporation. In keeping with the collaborative concept behind the Wilburys project, however, all five members received a songwriting credit
