The reviews of this lolla 96 show were right.. chris > performs solo some song that is definitely not in the sg realm. anyone > know what this is? (improvision/cover/unreleased?) > It's a cover of an 80's song, but I can't remember who did it originally or what the name of it is. I want to say Billy Bragg, but I'm not sure. It has been bugging me ever since I heard this bootleg the first time, because I used to hear this song on college radio a lot and I just can't get the old memory cells in order.

It's a cover...a Syd Barrett track called "Dark Globe" from the album "The Madcap Laughs". Here's the lyrics straight from pinkfloyd.org: "DARK GLOBE Oh where are you now pussy willow that smiled on this leaf? When I was alone you promised the stone from your heart my head kissed the ground I was half the way down, treading the sand please, please, lift a hand I'm only a person whose armbands beat on his hands, hang tall won't you miss me? Wouldn't you miss me at all? The poppy birds way swing twigs coffee brands around brandish her wand with a feathery tongue my head kissed the ground I was half the way down, treading the sand please, please, please lift the hand I'm only a person with Eskimo chain I tattooed my brain all the way... Won't you miss me? Wouldn't you miss me at all?" L8r ~^v^GardeNGoD^v^~ ============================================== "All art is at once surface & symbol.

I always thought I awake was just about normal day to day life. You wake up , go to work deal with being unhappy because life sucks for whatever reason. Small talk, have a good day. However, you feel obligated to say yeah I had a wonderful day honey, and how was your day. thought it was just about that boring fake front that everyone puts up everyday when obviously a great number of people are unsaatidsfied with there daily routine. I am not explaining myself very well here so I will stop wasting everyone's time and get back to work. Dont worry, I will have a good day. Oh, I always though Soundgarden had a really dark feel on LTL that they never really explored further. Granted, SG is a doom and gloom band on most of the albums. It just seems like they were even darker on LTL. If songs like get on the snake were not on that album to balance it out, that album would have been super depressing. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 5 Jun 1999 15:59:03 PDT From: The Koggle Subject: Re: commercial my behind!! >why don't you shut up with your sarcasm Koggle, and stop making everyone >your >personal target. shit. that's the crap that starts flame wars...
