    this is by far the best best BJM song and one of my favorites of all time. when anton and co. played in salt lake city about 8 years ago, me and a buddy were yelling "swallowtail" (like total jackasses) between songs the entire set. and toward the end of the evening after we yelled "swallowtail" yet again, everybody on stage looked at each other and shrugged and then started in on it. they played an 8 min. version that sent me to far off galaxies and then said goodnight. thanks, anton.

    I remember the days when the live gigs could be 'unpredictable' - but the music was always just awesome. What a great band...

    Love this band - and this is my favourite track - especially live when you can get 10-15 minutes of it... live music doesn't get much better than this - raw and honest and just bloody brilliant !!

    this song pulls a heartstring, i can feel the emotion in it. it makes me think of hearts that I have broken. it almost brings a tear to my eye.

    Closest I could get the lyrics; there's one part I can't figure out. I love this song.
    Well can't you see it's hard for me
    To send you on your way
    When I heard so much of I give ups
    In every word you say
    But we make love together,
    And nothing takes it place
    Not kicking in my door tonight
    And screaming in my face
    Can't you see it's hard for me
    …. … most everyday
    When I see so much of I give ups
    in every single way.
    But we make love together
    and no love take your place
    Like kicking all your front teeth out
    And screaming in your face

      +Primera Espada in most google lyrics websites u find something else on the first line
      "Well can't you see it's hard for me
      To send you on your way"
      you are the only one i see online who understadn it like this

    • @PrimeraEspada91

      +thatswhyudie Most googles lyrics have weird words on them. I listened to the 98 peel session to get these lyrics. I know if you listen to the tepid peppermint wonderland it has sightly different lyrics also, which i love.

    • @thatswhyudie
      @thatswhyudie 9 лет назад

      It's already there in the web, although I think he improvise some when live
      I see it's hard to be alone in everyway
      When you hear so much of I give ups
      In every word they say
      But we make love forever
      And nothing fills that space
      Not smashing in my door last night
      And screaming in my face
      Can't you see it's hard for me
      To send you on your way
      But I've heard so much of I give up
      In every word you say
      But we make love forever still
      And I'll not fill that space
      By punching all your front teeth out
      And laughing in your face

    according to anton its influenced by manchester bands of the late 70s and early 80s like joy division, the chameleons etc I can hear it a mile off.

    I usually hate revival bands because it's just copying a popular formula, but I'm a hypocrite because I can't help but like BJM. But he uses a fake British accent in this song. Ugh... But god damn it I still like this damn song. GOD DAMN IT

    • @GoteeDevotee
      @GoteeDevotee 7 лет назад

      BlueDog 1 It's quite hard to sing in a British accent... singing naturally follows a mid-atlantic tone for British singers.

    • @NEVERagainEVER423
      @NEVERagainEVER423 3 года назад +1

      It's not a fake Brit accent. If you grew up in California beach cities...ALL talked that way!! Bloody Hell! The Brits don't rule accents! 😎
