Baby, come on, whose side are you on?

I don't wanna see the queen

I already sing her song

While they're snuffing out hopes, and they're blotting out suns

They claim to know the form in which genius comes, yeah

Baby, come on, get your high heels on

It's the body is cold, it's the course is run

What artless living all this soft pain thrills

What calamities usher all our brilliance to the hills!

Can you feel it?

Imagine Bono being able to write verses like that.....

Could I have put it any better?

No

What more can I learn but from the master?

"Labels can be extremely helpful to the initiated

And bewildering to the newcomer"

So remember, Ms. Flower, be gentle with me

A few delicate sips to start with before I drink my glass dry

To appreciate the vintage, to enjoy the richness

And fruit to the full could well take several hours

If not days or much longer

Your answers, whispered in my ear, welcome

I want to taste you

Taste your lips, feel your hair

I want to breathe you

Taste your hips, taste your skin

I want to own you

Taste your mouth, taste your fingers

I want to love you

Taste your breath, taste your sweat

Let me adore you

I still remember where I was when I first heard this!

I was up in Limerick visiting a friend, scowering a second hand clothes shop, for leather jackets. Then this song came on and two of us asked the store who's this playing?

Lenny Kravets ...Hey Mr Cab Driver. We both bought the album as soon as we could after. I didn't buy a leather jacket. Priorities!

Warning in advance - mental health topic.

There's an artist called Ren - 'Hi Ren' is written with 2 voices - so him and his negative, mean intrusive schizophrenic voice. Very good song though.

Thankfully haven't had to deal with mental health issues but it's a poignant way to show some of the struggles for those who do.

""You think that you can amputate me?

I am you, you are me, you are I, I am we

We are one, split in two that makes one, so you see

You got to kill you if you wanna kill me""

""News flash

I was created at the dawn of creation

I am temptation, I am the snake in Eden

I am the reason for treason, beheading all Kings

I am sin with no rhyme or reason

Sun of the morning, Lucifer, antichrist

Father of lies, Mestophilies

Truth in a blender, deceitful pretender

The banished avenger, the righteous surrender""

It's been suggested that "Between The Bars" by Elliott Smith is about his own struggles with addiction.

Also a great song.

The best opening and closing lyrics to a song have to be from Elvis

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'

A poor little baby child is born

In the ghetto

And his mama cries

'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need

It's another hungry mouth to feed

In the ghetto

As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man

Face down on the street with a gun in his hand

In the ghetto in the ghetto

And as her young man dies in the ghetto

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'

Another little baby child is born

In the ghetto

And his mama cries in the ghetto

Having lost a best friend recently, Gemma Hayes - High & Low was impossible to listen to without breaking down in tears. I share it here for those in similar circumstances as it evokes that loss so beautifully and her voice is just amazing singing it with compassionate inflection in the right places.

Weirdly, it's a song I can also imagine The Frames/Metallica/ Pearl Jam doing a much heavier, louder, screaming version of but maybe that's just me

Here the lyrics and a link to the video at the end.

Hope you enjoy ❤️

High & Low Lyrics

I must be in the wrong place

Their lips are moving but the words bent out of shape

I try to speak

But all I do is call your name

I fear I'm getting stranger

Falling out into the street while people stare

Am I really here?

Or am I floating in midair?

I know, I know

I'm always looking for you

I know, I know

You took something of mine with you

We lived in between the days

In the kitchen writing songs to ease the pain

How were we to know?

It would set our walls on fire

As the people became your choir

Crawling out your nam? and now you're gone

How can I go home, how can I go hom?

When you're not waiting for me?

How can I go home? How can I go home?

When you took it from me

Turn up the noise to drown you out

Since you've been gone, the silence seems so loud

Wanna reach inside and rip you out

Girl, homesteady

But if I dare to speak your name

Thoughts come crashing just like waste

I know, I know

Cause they took you from me

I know, I know

Will I always be looking for you?
