Truly a song for our times…
Jezebel voting on Eurovision contestants (since it’s canceled this year):
So, adding this here, since I can’t reply twice in a row because… reasons? 
24 songs with pivotal key changes…
Checked to see that Cheap Trick’s Surrender is on there, left satisfied, but a tiny bit not quite; they only mention one noteworthy lift when there are two. One of the neatest (cheap?) tricks of the song is that the first verse coming out of the intro pulls an unexpected key change right out of the gate!
On a similar theme…
Edit:
ADF lyrics are a little hard to interpret for the unfamiliar, so…
Union jack and union jill
Back up and down the same old hill
Sell the flag to the youths
But who swallows the bill
“murdoch she wrote”
Him have his hand in the till
Blairful of thatcher
Stuck on the 45
The suits have changed
But the old ties survive
New britannia cool
Who are you trying to fool?
Behind your fashion-tashion I see nothing at all
Care for the commodity
Cuts the nation into three
Rich pickings for the first
Bottom third you never see
While middle england keeps swinging its
Loyalty
No concern for the future
Just with dead royalty
So will the real, the real great britain
Step forward
This is the national identity parade
Shoe gazer nation forever looking
Backwards
Time to reject the sixties charade
Not enough schools
Not enough homes
Just “phony care” in his millennium dome
More prime cuts than beef on the bone
And there’s too many questions you’re
Not answering tone
Union jack and union jill
Back up and down the same old hill
Sell the flag to the youths
But who swallows the bill
“murdoch she wrote”
Him have his hand in the till
So will the real, the real great britain
Step forward
This is the national identity parade
Shoe gazer nation forever looking
Backwards
Time to reject the sixties charade
“Fetch The Bolt Cutters”
For reasons:
Hey!
You don’t worry. Everything is going to be alright.
You especially gotta watch the last part.
(And could someone please post this in the White Culture thread too? Something about two posts in a row, etc.)
Asian Dub Foundation is one of my favorite bands. I saw them playing live almost 20 years ago.
It was a great night and a great show. The interesting thing is that they were quite unknown and ended up opening the night for a local band called O Rappa, which was very popular at the time.
Today neither O Rappa band exists anymore nor the place where they played for a very excited audience, who was mostly there to see O Rappa. I was there to see the ADF, a band that was introduced to me by some friends and clips that I watched on MTv. I, like everyone else that night, was astonished at the performance of the ADF.
