    "The shiny blackest crow
    Flew in to say hello
    Though much to her surprise
    He had two miles for eyes"


    Eh?! He had two miles for eyes? :S

    I know what Lemmy means, their greatest hits become their albatross's.
    I went to another bands gig around 2007 and their biggest hit just went over my head, so when I got home I posted on their forum that they hadnt played it. The band went on Gideon Coes Radio 6 show about 2 days later, little did I know that Gideon did his research off the forum....so he asked the band why they hadnt played it live on Radio and they told him they had, leaving Coe looking a tit, um...oops haha albatross's.



    What band was it? ;)

    Little Bird is is just amazing, recorded or live. Just love how it starts like a nursery song and ends in a psycho crescendo

    I am with Nova and Icky on this, Little Bird is a cute little rock number, it's very psychedelic, reminds me both of 60's psychedelia and also 90's indie kinda Madchester rave on vibe, fucking great song, great lyrics, great music and totally suited to a live environment.

    Who is insulting Goldfrapp now by saying that it sounds like Inspiral Carpets and all that other 90's dross. 

    The end of Little Bird is "good psychedelic" not "bad psychedelic".  :P

    Thanks for that ickygerm, I'm just off to write a strong letter of complaint to:

    www.azlyrics.com.

    And yes I do own the deluxe CD box set of Seventh Tree but it remains sealed (like the OCD fan I am) and so I have to rely on lyrics sites for the words.

    do you like the lyric better now? ;)

    lyric sites tend to be terrible! i think goldfrapp.free.fr had most goldfrapp lyrics, usually transribed from the booklets, so you could try checking there?

    I said 'kinda' and I did say 'reminds me of' so it's subjective, I am not forcing my opinion like some people are insisting it's a terrible song with shit lyrics OK? ;)
