Dewar Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Some Veruca Salt popped in my head today. Apparently they are putting out a new record in 2015.
PuroresuFan Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Liked this when it was playing at the end of an episode of "Elementary". He also had another of his songs played during an episode of "Suits".
cwoy2j Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Some Veruca Salt popped in my head today. Apparently they are putting out a new record in 2015. That's good news. I saw them in concert in 1996 and they were really good.

FireThunder Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 It counts because I was gonna post this yesterday but couldn't, because... REASONS. I'm waiting in my cold cell, when the bell begins to chimeReflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time'Cause at 5 O'clock they take me to the gallows pole,The sands of time for me are running low, running low When the priest comes to read me the last ritesTake a look through the bars at the last sightsOf a world that has gone very wrong for me Can it be that there's some sort of errorHard to stop the surmounting terrorIs it really the end, not some crazy dream? Somebody please tell me that I'm dreamingIt's not easy to stop from screamingBut words escape me when I try to speak Tears fall but why am I cryingAfter all I'm not afraid of dyingDon't I believe that there never is an end As the guards march me out to the courtyardSomebody cries from a cell, 'God be with you'If there's a God then why has He let me go? As I walk my life drifts before meThough the end is near I'm not sorryCatch my soul, it's willing to fly away Mark my words, believe my soul lives onDon't worry now that I have goneGone beyond to seek the truth, yeah, yeah When you know that your time is close at handMaybe then you'll begin to understandLife down here is just a strange illusion Yeah, hallowed be thy nameYeah, hallowed be thy nameYeah.
Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 its finals week so It's been hard doing anythingwinter stuck around so longI kept trying anyhow and I'm still trying nowjust to keep workingI remember when it didn't use to be so hardthis used to be impossibleA new season has to beginI can feel it leaning in whispering "Nothing's lonely now"Nothing anymore in pain A tall shadow dressed how secrets always dresswhen they want everyone to know that they're aroundleaning in whispering "my friend over theredon't know what he's talking about"Did you really believethat everyone makes it out?Almost no one makes it out I'm going to use that street to hidefrom that human doubtto hide from what was shiningand has finally burned us outBut if no one makes it outHow come you're talking to one right nowfor once almost was good enough
Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 What is it to take care of yourself?Getting paid? Getting laid?Getting married? Getting pregnant?Fighting for visibility in your market?Realizing your potential?Being healthy? Being clean?Not making a fool of yourself?Not hurting yourself?Shaving in all the right places?What am I taking care of?I'm lying in our bedunable to sleepReaching a stateof absolute dependencein a restless half dreamLike the jam without a spoonAnd I grab my cuntWith my hand that isn't cleanAm I loving myself now?Am I mothering myself?Am I taking care of myself now?I imagine you doing the sameHolding onto to your soft dickIt lies in the hand where it dares stay softIt lies in the hand where it dares stay softCould I be that for you?Could I be that for you?A cupping hand on your soft dickCan I give you thatThat which sometimes expects nothingAccepting restlessnessAccepting no directionAccepting this fearful wanting that isn't desireThat going nowhere?A warm placeCan we go there?We don't have to fuck, can we just lie here being?I give you this hand, I give you this hand...

Pete Posted August 25, 2015 Author Posted August 25, 2015 Tear drops on the city Bad scooter searching for his groove Seem like the whole world walking pretty And you can't find the room to move Well everybody better move over, that's all I'm running on the bad side And I got my back to the wall Tenth avenue freeze-out, tenth avenue freeze-out I'm stranded in the jungle Taking all the heat they was giving The night is dark but the sidewalks bright And lined with the light of the living From a tenement window a transistor blasts Turn around the corner things got real quiet real fast She hit me with a tenth avenue freeze-out Tenth avenue freeze-out And I'm all alone, I'm all alone And kid you better get the picture And I'm on my own, I'm on my own And I can't go home When the change was made uptown And the big man joined the band From the coastline to the city All the little pretties raise their hands I'm gonna sit back right easy and laugh When scooter and the big man bust this city in half With a tenth avenue freeze-out, tenth avenue freeze-out Tenth avenue freeze-out...

Cliff Hanger Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 A little background: the first time I heard that song was the first time my mom put pop/rock radio on in the car instead of country, having decided my brother and I were old enough now. (Other songs I remember hearing that day are Huey Lewis and the News's "The Heart of Rock and Roll" and Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust") When I was 7, I loved it mostly because of the synth line. Now, 30+ years later, I can identify a lot more strongly with the song as a whole.
