YEARS ago i was making cookies with my grandma. I burned my finger and before she could get it under cold water i put it up to my ear and grabbed my earlobe to help heat dissipate . like that old wives tale. but that actually works. then she said That's something only witches do! and then gave me some pretty good stink eyes!
In a place they say is dead In the lake that's like an ocean I count about a billion head All the time There's a motion Palace of the brine Palace of the brine I saw the cloning Of the famous family I hear the droning In the shrine Of the sea-monkey Woo Palace of the brine Palace of the brine Beneath reflections in the fountain The starry sky and Utah mountains They are swimming happily Can't you see A life that's so sublime Palace of the brine
They are playing Saltair here next week. I always thought they were referring to the Salt Palace, an old concert/sports arena in SLC. They aren't clear so I guess it could be either.
Makes you wondering what they were on when they decided to write a song about the Brine Shrimp in the Great Salt Lake? I know Black, Kim and Joey loved to ski Utah but, really? Brine Shrimp... LOL.. That's awesome! They even refer to the BYU cloning of a sheep back in the early 80's..
"OUR LIVES ARE SOOOOOOO SUBLIME!" This is the song that started me being a fan of the Pixies. It's harsh and sweet! THEY ARE SOOOO CRYPTIC.
favorite band. ever.
I wish this song would keep going and going....

In a place they say is dead
In the lake that's like an ocean
I count about a billion head
All the time
There's a motion
Palace of the brine
Palace of the brine
I saw the cloning
Of the famous family
I hear the droning
In the shrine
Of the sea-monkey
Woo
Palace of the brine
Palace of the brine
Beneath reflections in the fountain
The starry sky and Utah mountains
They are swimming happily
Can't you see
A life that's so sublime
Palace of the brine
17th video of pixies on a row now... guess nostalgia won

This song is about brine shrimps living in the Great Salt Lake in Utah.

There really isn’t a Pixies song (pre-reunion) I don’t like, but if I *had* to call one the worst, I guess it’d be…Bailey’s Walk?
