Dans mes bras, on Adrienne Pauly's album.
She rocks live, her texts are brilliant, but that one has nothing to do there!
She didn't sing it when I saw her (French speaking boardies, she made me believe in French rock with French lyrics again!)

From Bad moon Rising

Justice is might
echo canyon (altho it was called untitled on my album that i got)
Ghost bitch

I haven't really checked her out, but she's strongly influenced by Brigitte Fontaine isn't she ?

I can't think of any.

It never came to my mind.
A girl I knew saw her before me and mentioned Catherine Ringer, which I thought odd. Still, when she took the stage and moved, that connection clicked.
She pays attention to both lyrics and music - one thing many French artists don't do, being less demanding on their music (less than me).

Her musicians are quite quite good: Alice Boté, from Jad Wio and Fred Poulet, nearly drove me nuts, and Michael Garçon too, from AS Dragon (who could provide what the Valentins gave to Brigitte Fontaine, a poppy aspect).
She's funny in between songs, and likes at time to hit her head with a tambourine with a grin on her face, as if she was a bit mental. That's the sole other connection I could find with Brigitte Fontaine, who played with that image; a bit far-fetched.

I bought her album after seeing her live twice recently. She rocks a lot / kicks ass (typing that : a dream come true) / and covers Gainsbourg with tons of joy and energy.

She'll probably be recording a new album early 2008.
She's toured a lot, even played in my town, a thing noone interesting had ever done (well, from my window the day after, I heard Superbus covering Youth Against Fascism).
Expect her to be less than 50 kms of your hometown next year.

Take 'People Are Strange' off Strange Days and swap it with 'The Unknown Soldier' on Waiting For The Sun.

Actually, it's kind of odd that these numbers wound up where they are in the first place, considering that just about everything on the first three Doors albums was written in the same 1965-'66 era, thereby giving the band lots of time and objectivity to get the LPs' running orders in perfect sync.

The opening track on Boredom's Pop Tatari ("Noise Ramones"). It's so obnoxious, I had to delete it from iTunes just to avoid the temptation of playing it, or the risk of it coming up on shuffle.

So annoying that I ressurected this thread because of it.

Seriously. I hate this track. It ruins the whole CD.

I don't "hate" it... but Eric's Trip is my least favorite song on Daydream Nation and probably my least favorite Lee song. I don't know why they're prone to whipping it out live so often.

I'm quite happy that between the two times I've seen them live, Lee performed 3 songs and none of them were Eric's Trip.

acousticrock87 08.12.2008 11:57 PM

I've never seen SY not play Eric's Trip.

That's how I felt about Pink Cellphone on the newest one, but now I like it. I like Teenager, though.

Actually, I hate Passenger on White Pony. I don't mind Maynard, but he sings the whole fucking song. I don't want to listen to Tool when I'm not listening to Tool.

viewtiful_alan 08.13.2008 12:11 AM

Olympia on Live Through This

Creme Brulee on Dirty

Spread Eagle Beagle on Houdini.
