Musically and lyrically brilliant songs about terraforming Mars, songs about black holes and songs about alien visitations...there is only one Frank Black!
u mean only 1 Donald Marshall haha (if you haven't heard about this conspiracy yet brace yourself...one dude wrote all the big 80s and 90s records for most of these bands at a cloning center). Frank either gets his lyrics sent during dreams of has had similar experiences
I love this song so much! I've always thought the lyrics were about Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson. "...Bulldozing up canal walls, They’re gonna tap that icecap too and when they do they’re gonna make that green map blue" points directly to the Mars Trilogy (me thinks).
@wwgt Dude what the hell I love Boston, Journey, Heart, Tom Petty, Eagles, as well as Frank Black. Hell, if I lived somewhere where that was ALL they played on the radio I'd be freaking content.
I absolutley agree. this should be an FM radio staple.. but ..NOOOO we have to hear: queen, and boston and journey, heart tompetty,eagles, over, and over, and over and over , and over over, and over, and over and over , and over over, and over, and over and over , and over I agree ,,with you phucking scandolous man scandolus
hello,elray. sorry,neil never did cover this song but when i first heard this years ago i thought frank was channeling his inner neil young. to me this sounds just like a neil song done by frank black. i think if you can imagine neil doing this you will hear why. sorry for the error
Best album of the 90s
Always been one of my faves. I like Blacks solo stuff better than his Pixies stuff, especially the first two.
one of the greatest solo albums of the 90's. Lyle Workman's work is the best of his career. Frank's Opus.
How come Frank Black is such a genius? I love him.
Peerlessly ingenious!
He has a talented mind, that landed a classical gas
And he's from outerspace

One of the best pop hooks ever
Here I am in my bucket today
In the middle... :)
I agree: one of the most perfect pop songs ever
I love this song so much! I've always thought the lyrics were about Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson.

Love this song soooooo much, thanks
I wouldn't want someone to ask me which song of Teenager of the year is my favorite. I like all of them.
such a great album !
The best thing is that the ones I used to find skippable (eg: Vanishing Spies) now get the honour of full volume :)
love that ending on Vanishing Spies!
Ive never had 1 favorite but my favorite ones have changed many times over the years. Just so many good songs
Was just thinking the same thing :)
@ThePlacidman Yeah. I love that too! My favorite part though is the "bum bum bum bum" right after it. It drives me wild!
Don’t know if I’ll ever go back, that’s how I felt when I left that tarmac...
yes I agree ,,however it is a close cal to say
any one song on this cd is the best ..because..
they are all great

To help the flowers in the mean space!
Sell this song to a beer company. Make a commercial at a cottage. Give me 5%.
That little back sound at 0:34 :-)
He had a really good funky hook going there at the end. He should have extended it out a bit.
Temaaazzzooooo!!!
QUE TE CALMES
Ya think Frank believes in global warming???
"Green map is gonna turn blue"🤔
Temazoooo locoooo!!!
CALMATE
