    I remember having an argument with my ex about 5 or 6 years ago and walking out, I went to Sleazy's in Glasgow and these guys were playing, was a pretty perfect outcome. So good to see them doing well.

    I remember hearing this song live for the first time. I was standing in front of the stage and suddenly I realised I was crying. I'll never forget this moment.

    She did me terribly and shattered my heart but I'll never forget the music she introduced me to. I'm two weeks into the heartbreak but I'm glad I can listen to this and reflect on it all.

    Part of the impeccable sound quality here is that it's at the Doug Fir. Never seen a show here that wasn't mixed near perfectly.

      Because people are way too picky about music (for the most part.)

    • @volcajohann
      @volcajohann 8 років тому +15

      Jack I'd rather say the opposite, though. They're not picky enough, seeing how the masses are happy with low quality, mass produced "music" from mass produced, industrial "artists" (they only exist to please audiences, being slaves to the public opinion, taking no risks... so they don't create real art, but rather music based on formulas that they know will work on the masses)... people don't ask for good content at all, but rather just stay with what they know will always work... so "picky" is the last thing I'd call them. I'm not sure if it is the industry or the masses' fault that this is as it is, though.

    S I N G !
    [Verse 1]
    Right foot followed by a left foot
    We'll guide you home before your curfew
    And into your bed
    Standing on our tip-toes
    Peering through open windows
    I swear I heard my name
    [Verse 2]
    Sitting with the lights off
    Waiting for my brain to storm
    Trying to work things out
    It's thunder and it's lightning
    And it's all things too frightening
    I could barely see outside
    [Chorus]
    Your body was black and blue
    Been struck twice there's nothing new
    Your body was black and blue
    Been struck twice there's nothing new
    Your body was black and blue
    Your body was black and blue
    Your body was black and blue
    Your body was black and blue
    Your body was black and blue
    Your body was black and blue
    Your body was black and blue
    Your body was black
    [Post-Chorus]
    And there's thunder
    And there's lightning
    Coming home
    And there's thunder
    And there's lightning
    Coming back
    [Chorus]
    Your body was black and blue
    Your body was black and blue
    And your body
    [Outro]
    I have to say goodnight
    I'm leaving before you're punching out my lights
    I have to say goodnight
    I'm leaving before you're punching out my lights
    I have to say goodnight
    I'm leaving before you're punching out my lights
    I have to say goodnight
    I'm leaving before you're punching out my lights
    I'm leaving

    He may be the loudest singer I've ever heard. 2 nights ago when they opened for Jimmy Eat World, he spent half the set standing 5 feet from the mic, screaming into it...we could have heard him clearly in the 15th row or so without a mic, even over the other instruments.
