Simple or pimple?

Two gloomy epics to end with.

If you were out at sea
They'd throw you overboard
Even a captain needs some rest
They'd throw you overboard
Even a captain needs some rest

Pink Floyd-esque.

These lyrics are the very quintessence of Jim O'Rourke's overweening misanthropy.
I've seen your eyes
I think you notice
That I'm so happy now
And I blame you
Please don't cry
I might enjoy that
Don't do anything to change the way you think of me
All your love (repeats)
Will never change me
All your love (repeats)
Will never change
I know you try
To make me notice
All the things you think are good in you
Here's a surprise
I wouldn't need them
Even if there's no one left but me and you
Cause all your love
All your love
All your love
Will never change
I've seen your eyes
I think you notice
That I'm so happy now
And I blame you
Please don't cry
I might enjoy that
Don't do anything to change the way you think of me
All your love (repeats)
Will never change me
All your love (repeats)
Will never change
I know you try
To make me notice
All the things you think are good in you
Here's a surprise
I wouldn't need them
Even if there's no one left but me and you
Cause all your love
All your love
All your love
Will never change

More adverts.
jazz fusion drumming.
Does sounds like Tortoise gone Peter Gabriel.

This coda is perhaps a little bloated and overlong.

It's amazing how influential Dear Prudence has been over the years.

Not a lot of people these days would dare do something this epic and self-indulgent.

There are elements of Carry That Weight too.

It is over.
That was a competent record but deeply dull, with the vocals too low in the mix.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.
