Nancy Boy lyrics:
Alcoholic kind of mood
Lose my clothes, lose my lube
Cruising for a piece of fun
Looking out for number one
Different partner every night
So narcotic outta sight
What a gas, what a beautiful ass
And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head, she's universal
Spinning me round, she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head, she's universal
Spinning me round, she's coming over me
Kind of buzz that lasts for days
Had some help from insect ways
Comes across all shy and coy
Just another Nancy Boy
Woman man or modern Monkey
Just another happy junkie
Fifty pounds press my button going down
And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head, she's universal
Spinning me round, she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head, she's universal
Spinning me round, she's coming over me
Does his makeup in his room
Douse himself with cheap perfume
Eyeholes in a paper bag
Greatest lay I ever had
Kind of guy who mates for life
Gotta help him find a wife
We're a couple
When our bodies double
And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head, she's universal
Spinning me round, she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head, she's universal
Spinning me round, she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head, she's universal
Spinning me round, she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head, she's universal
Spinning me round, she's coming over me

Ahhh... I'm 43... it's 2023... And I keep coming back to Placebo's debut album... the rawest, most pure guitar, base, vocals and drums ever...! And Molko's lyrics and voice - one of a kind!
The first-edition versionnis better.
40 dude it's still relevant in my life I didn't change my music i didn't grow up I grew old 😂🤟😎
Not on your own,so narcotic it's outtsight ❤
Lol same dude 😎
I listen their albums on shuffle regularly
A “nancy boy” is a man who is very feminine; the lyrics mention the man putting on makeup and perfume in his room. The tune’s theme : accepting one’s sexuality and blurring the lines of gender roles.
Featured on Placebo’s self-titled debut LP (1996), this was THE BREAKTHROUGH SINGLE for the British alt-rock group.
While the lay wasn’t based on anyone in particular, it was inspired by a quote from Brett Anderson of Suede, who said, “I’m a bisexual man who’s never had a homosexual experience.” The quote caught Molko’s attention : “I saw that as a very opportunistic statement, and it led me to want to write something about tourism of the sexual kind, which is where the chorus comes from : ‘And It all breaks down at the first rehearsal.’”
Regarding “Nancy Boy”, Brian Molko explained : “People who think it’s fashionable to be gay, guys who think that because some of my best friends are gay that they are going to try it out because they are in a milieu where it’s cool, but they haven’t actually had the desire themselves. In the song, I’m questioning people’s reasons for sleeping with someone of the same sex. In the same way that heroin is very hip today, being bisexual seems to be very chic.”
About the sonic elements that reflected the experience of the piece’s drug-addled character, Molko stated : “Sonically, we tried to capture a kind of drug-induced sexual rush; it’s got a rising car sound which was meant to kind of reproduce the first rushes of E, and it’s obvious that the character in the song is kind of drug-crazed at that moment. There are times in your life where you are so off your head that all you really want to do is f-k.” He added : “It’s a celebration and a slag of that behavior at the same time. It doesn’t promote promiscuity but it doesn’t judge it either.”
Looking back on the album in 2017, Brian Molko shared his opinion of Placebo’s debut : “It’s an extremely under-produced record, but it’s also THE ONE THAT PUT US ON THE MAP. For me, it sounds quite naive and definitely the work of a band whose first time it is in the studio. And when I say naive, I don’t mean the songwriting. The sound of the album and the songwriting are two very different things to me. The songs are pretty cool. There is a certain cheek, wit, and mischievousness to them, which I like. But I remember arriving in Dublin and learning of a technological advancement called ProTools, but I didn’t realize we weren’t using it on this record. So it was made in a very old school way, recording to tape. So if you wanted to make an edit, you had to take a razor blade to the tape. But still I remember at the time we were filled with enthusiasm. We couldn’t believe someone had given us money to make a record. But we were very, very green and we hadn’t learned how to use a studio as an instrument itself yet. It just sounds very young to me.” 💙🎵💚
i aint readng allat 🙏
@@user-xm5xx5yn9b Was not expecting to see a tiktok brainrot comment under a Placebo video. Makes sense though I guess. This shit kind of was brainrot before it became popular.
It is about be a libertine, simple.
One of my favorites. I can listen to this over and over again. 🌈💖
So can I and never get bored of it
One of the best debut album ever!!
That nasal voice, so characteristic from Brian Molko, yet sounds so good!
love this
Une de mes préférées!!!!
Just brilliant
fucking brilliant! this just gets better with time. The rhythms! What a superbly crafted and executed piece of genius.
Suntory Times this song made them famous
INDIE CLASSIC!!
Love it!
This song
One of the best from the nineties
Stunning
Mi canción favorita! podría escucharla toda la vida :)
That intro!!!!
Actually one of the greatest rock songs ever. Such a special chorus. Actually this song is the closest thing to the bastard son of Kurt Cobain.
Love this track
that discordant intro is absolutely top class.
a fave, thanks!
i love this :>>
mid to late 90s awesomeness :D
ok, off to suggestions to look for Bush now
Easily their best album! What a drummer!
TIMELESS
A glorious racket. Everything you want in an indie song
Oh god, i love nancy boys...❤
Still as good as the first time I heard it
,The death of nancy boy" is really painful for me. I love this song. I understand that they had grown up and they wanted to develop their music and lyrics. But ,,nancy boy" and the whole "nancy boy era" are the huge inspiration for me. I realize that a lot of things that they were doing at that time was just an attempt to get attention. Brian Molko is a very interesting person and it was quite hard to understand how does he feel about this song and this era now. (I still don't understand))
Superb
Ahuevo ¡¡¡
Placebo en mi México...
encantada de ellos desde los 13 años pfffffffff
It’s hard to explain but I wanna look how this song sounds
me encantan 😙
Still love this song in 2021.
Alcoholic kind of mood
lose my clothes, lose my lube
cruising for a piece of fun
looking out for number one
different partner every night
so narcotic outta sight
what a gas, what a beautiful ass.
And it all breaks down at the role reversal,
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.

Were a couple when our bodies double,
Ugh I hate that I relate to the feelings of this song so much,
Only ever can pretend to incorporate in the flirting that a potential relationship is part of the one night stands if I’m drunk enough to cover up how much Im hiding the pain of not ever going to be able to have that ,
Never been with “my type” of person either that, even though I can sleep with anyone , like, mechanically I guess , it sucks
Rather clone myself and fuck myself with a paper bag over my head if I have to fuck something ugly 😂
"Lose my clothes , use my lube" would make way more sense 🤷
I'm feeling in a shitty mood so why not might as well waste my life and play this song on replay till my button is broken anyone relate honestly? 🤘🤘💕
Do in so many ways.....
Dont know if anyone gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all the latest movies on InstaFlixxer. Have been watching with my gf for the last few days xD
@Vincenzo Kellen definitely, been watching on InstaFlixxer for months myself =)
@Vincenzo Kellen yup, I have been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself :D
@Vincenzo Kellen Definitely, been using InstaFlixxer for since november myself :)
Shoutout and love to all my fembois, keep doing you.
This band are class act
Kind of buzz that lasts for days
Handsome help from insect ways
Comes across all shy and coy
Just another Nancy Boy 🎶
Fuckin tune! Watched these back in the 1600's or sometime years ago performing this song in a battle of the bands contest.
Dip me in the honey and throw me to the lesbians
Best ever nineties song
Nice
Love you 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
this song now is teaching me how to pull, shame its not 90's
For some reason this was always on in the background in Brookside, Hollyoaks and the Bill lol.
Also an XFM (now Radio X) staple.
Ace track.... and that's from a Stones fan! Placebo's best!
Walter, amazing shit and am a diehard, Jam fan! 😳🤣
The kid on the cover looks like a mix between Macaulay Culkin and a young Damon Albarn
He sued the band because his cousin took the picture without his permission.
This screams a remix-remaster. One of Placebo's classics
This is the Sex Mix. I don't know why it was put on the 10th Anniversary Edition of this album, but this is absolutely not the original version.
This shit rocks
THE MTV Advert//----who remembers? so far ahead of their tinme GAY AND PROUD STROLLING DOWN SOME AMERICAN SCHOOLS LOCKERS X 90'S - BEYOND AWESOME

There are so many versions of this song.

Today is Molko´s birthday hbd nancy boy
OMG
So this is why I'm called ''Nancy Boy''
Depending on your perception, it can somehow be positive
I didn't even know Placebo was gay until this... And it is absolutely FUCKING amazing.
😍
Mis amores, por favor, se los ruego.. ¡VUELVAN A CHILE! ::(
serían brutal en lollapalooza hace rato no viene alguien brutal como placebo

man from@2:10 that bass..fucking awesome.
Brian Molko's best period
Yeah..that og drummer was amazing. Can hear it. I ran an got this early 90's
What the duct,what I've been looking for
Me relating to this song is why I have a therapist
Ive no Panties On?
Great Stuff Placebo, Beauty Maties!
Why is there a different version on my album CD? It is 3:48 long and that is the version I've always known and loved. It's a bit slower, less distorted and more bass heavy. But the version here seems to be everywhere now, on streaming platforms and so on.
Yeah its pretty hard to find the original album version.
This is "Nancy Boy (Sex Mix)". For who known what lame reason they replaced the original with the Sex Mix ever since the 10th Anniversary Edition of this album.
United kingdom's music..영국성님들의 음악성..
i fuckin love this song
i wish i could play this on guitar but the tabs are damm hard
Maybe cuz theres 2 players
your pfp is so swag lol
Androgyny at its finest

Like if Any one else remembers the 90s MTV Add with the kid listen to this song with the mega large earphone.. Classic placebo
Walking along the school hallway hiding his badly painted finger nails, just raw, emotional and banging!
Ea kaia
What a fuckin tune!!!!!
Nowt else said xxx
I distinctly remember a version re-recorded with Steve Hewitt with a completely different intro and mix. I always thought it was the Sex Mix but when I clicked on it, it sounded like the album version. I can’t find the re-recorded version anywhere. Any link?
well, the version on some compilations is different I have the Once More With Feeling , and I am quite sure they use the version with higher vocals (Radio Edit) as in here: ruclips.net/video/PBxuq_eWW94/видео.html
0000song0000 Actually this is the album version shortened for its single/video release. The version I’m referring to has a totally different arrangement. Even Brian’s vocals are re-recorded.
this is the sex mix version i think
is this a re-release? sound is clearer and the song is shorter
+tristanauspride Shorter, by how much?
+tristanauspride There are two mixes of this single, Ones a touch longer. Might be the reason your finding this one shorter?
+tristanauspride Yeh totally miss the original. wasn't as wet sounding and not as "rushed" feeling.
There are two different versions this is the one originally released and for some reason on greatest hits etc it's the other version which I don't like
I don't remember the CD sounding like this
Kinda buzz that lasts for days...
Not the album version I guess, which version is this?
Performed this on drums at my high school. Boy the girls gave all the drummers a good time after 😈😈
I LOVE YOU BOYY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SEE YOU AT CLERMONT
KISSSSSSS
It yello for You love ❤ 3:31
👉💙💿♥️👈
Anyone know where the original version is? 🤨
reminds me of "Francis" from The Secret History
🤩❤️🥰😘❤️🥳🥳🥳❤️💋😘🥰🤩
Underrated gay anthem
not everything is about your identity politics
@@ramudasanjuu really funny considering this song literally is gay by every stretch of the imagination lmao (even the fucking title, nancy boy is a term for especially feminine men)
also using identity politics as a catchall euphemism for anything you don't like is really funny because you don't realize that it's a self-report about how privileged you are. you can just label anything you don't wanna see as identity politics because you don't have to think about your identity much, whereas anyone who isn't straight or cis has to constantly think and be reminded of their identity and how they are perceived.
these are things that the people behind placebo have been outspoken about , fyi.
Just because this is Brian Molko we're talking about, I have always wanted to know: Is the line ACTUALLY "She's coming over me"? Or is it "jizz coming over me"? Because both are equally likely considering what the song is about.
She's*
Oh it makes me feel naughty 😍
glu
Это настолько плохо, что даже хорошо
The lead singer sounds like geddy Lee on speed and steroids.
Lumis Theme song
this version is ok but i love the original version more
2021 : Nonsensical Dysfunctional Society Breaks Down. Blow up the balloons!
Anyone have any idea what that kid is doing nowadays?
He dropped out of high school and tried to sue them at one point.
+planetX15 His classmates bullied him because of this photo when he was young and he dropped out of school. A family member had taken the photo and given it to the band. He tried to sue them in 2012.
***** Yeah probably...
The kid was a high school drop out and tried to sue them in 2012 once but still he got bullied for the picture in school and his life was shit because of it
Legend has it he became a Nancy Boy
sounds like it is NOT the original version on this record
Its not...this is a live recording that wasn't on the original record. This one has much more energy!
I love how the lyrics criticize straight people who publicly identify as gay/bi/etc because it's fashionable and trendy. Boy if that's not more relevant today than ever.
