Roughtrade Posted March 8 Clone Share Posted March 8 This one should be easier There were copper bottom tympani in horse platoons, Thundering, thundering, all along the way. Double bell euphoniums and big bassoons, Each bassoon having his big fat say. There were fifty mounted cannon in the battery, Thundering, thundering, louder than before. Clarinets of eve'ry size and trumpeters who'd improvise A full octave higher than the score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharmingSatyr Posted March 8 Clone Share Posted March 8 New song, pivoting on theme. Winter nights we sang in tune Played inside the months of moon "Never think of never let this spell last forever" Well, summer lover passed to fall Tried to realize it all Mama says she's worried, growing up in a hurry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had posted As a man breathes into his saxophone And through the walls you can hear the city groan And outside it's America Would you have recognized it as "Bullet the Blue Sky" by U2? I almost went with that one, except it doesn't have any actual sax in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRajah Posted March 8 Clone Share Posted March 8 I'm trying to tell you something 'bout my life Maybe give me insight between black and white And the best thing you ever done for me Is to help me take my life less seriously It's only life after all, yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel like I'm no longer their target audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving lyrics. A really muddy guitar. The Edge at his best. And it got into radio rotation. Sepultura covered it. I'm not a fan, but it's there. I also like Trip Through Your Wires, but I don't think it ever got air play. It has a sort of Dylan feel to me. And I always love me a good harmonica solo.
