    1999. Never heard of QOTSA before. Went to the Casbah in San Diego to see Nebula. QOTSA headlined. Decided to stay. They opened with this song. They made that one chord intro rock out so hard it blew my mind. Fan ever since.

    LYRICS
    Who are you girl?
    Who are you boy?
    Bet I know what you're up to
    Can I come along?
    Your home number on the wall
    I just had to call, had to
    I'm not the only one
    Who will run with a knife
    Open up your eyes
    Open up your room
    Open up your arms
    One, six, two, seven, eight
    Two, six, three, seven, eight, nine
    Where's your daddy now?
    I heard he ran away
    Who are you girl?
    'Cause I'm so bored with myself
    Anyway, anytime and any place
    I'll just hang around
    Open up your eyes
    Open up your room
    Open up your arms
    One, six, two, seven, eight
    Two, six, three, seven, eight, nine
    Open up your eyes
    Open up your room
    Open up your arms
    Open up your door
    Open up your eyes
    Open up your room
    Open up your arms

    I’m so happy they brought back this mix. The new mix is technically good and all but this just captures the raw desert energy
