Inspiral
For mundane, banal, boring, routine, ritual, and common, there's life.
For everything else, there's post-rock.

"This Must Be The Place", Live on Jools Holland, 2004
"And you're standing here beside me
I love the passing of time"
David Byrne, in his own words, wrote a love song. But he sang it to a lamp.

"Once In A Lifetime", Live in Germany, 1980
Letting the days go by
Let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by
Water flowing underground
Into the blue again
After the money's gone
Once in a lifetime
Water flowing underground

Green Grass
Just Tom Waits singing about Death,
You’ll never be free of me
He’ll make a tree from me
Don’t say goodbye to me
Describe the sky to me
And if the sky falls, mark my words
We’ll catch mockingbirds

Stan
My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I..
got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window..
and I can't see at all
If it is raining right now.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Eric Burdon
Being introduced, as a singer, by Otis Fucking Redding. And then killing it. *That* is a good day.

Dead Leaves And The Dirty Ground
Soft hair and a velvet tongue
I wanna give you what you give to me
And every breath that is in your lungs
Is a tiny little gift to me
Is a tiny little gift to me
Damn, that shit is poetry. And damn that Jack White & his PhD in Distortion.

Invitation To The Blues
'Cause there's a Continental Trailways leavin'
Local bus tonight, good evenin'
You can have my seat, I'm stickin' 'round here for a while
Get me a room at the squire the fillin' station's hirin'
And I can eat here every night what the hell have I got to lose
Got a crazy sensation go or stay and I've got to choose
And I'll accept your invitation to the blues

Excitable Boy
I can pull a rabbit out of a hat
I can pull it out but I can't put it back
I can make love disappear
For my next trick I'll need a volunteer

Crooked Dances
a minimalist, repetitive rhythm that slowly but surely mingles with your thoughts till you have no thoughts left
And I totally agree with jonpguitar who says "It's much easier to appreciate when it's played slower don't you think?"
