| Bio: |
I can't sleep with the closet door open. I collect records, lately I'm on a 7" funk
kick. I photographize. Possess a slight obsession for Radiohead. I have to sleep with a
fan. You name it, I listen to it (with two omissions: country, mainstream pop). Try me.

Personally, I hate Dave Matthews music, but in this article he couldn't have hit the nail
on the head anybetter.

Dave Matthews really digs Radiohead, according to his interview in the April issue of
Rolling Stone. Here's what he had to say:
"Every time I buy a Radiohead album, I have a moment where I say to myself,
"Maybe this is the one that will suck." But it never does. I wonder if it's even
possible for them to be bad on record.
It belittles Radiohead to describe their music as having "hooks." Their music
talks to you, in a real way. It can take you down a quiet street before it drops a
beautiful musical bomb on you. It can build to where you think the whole thing will
crumble beneath its own weight - and then Thom Yorke will sing some melody that just cuts
your heart out of your chest. There's a point on the album Kid A where I start feeling
claustrophobic, stuck in a barbed-wire jungle - and then I suddenly fall out and I'm
sitting by a pool with birds singing. Radiohead can do all of these things in a moment,
and it drives me fucking crazy.
My reaction to Radiohead isn't as simple as jealousy. Jealousy just burns; Radiohead
infuriate me. But if it were only that, I wouldn't go back and listen to those records
again and again. Listening to Radiohead makes me fell like I'm a Salieri to their Mozart.
Yorke's lyrics make me want to give up. I could never in my wildest dreams find something
as beautiful as they find for a single song - let alone album after album. And every time,
they raise their finger to the press and the critics and say, "Nothing we do is for
you!". They followed their most critically acclaimed record, OK Computer, with their
most radical change, Kid A. It's not that they're indifferent: It's just that the strength
of character in their music is beyond their control.
Seeing them perform makes me even angrier. No matter how much they let go in their shows,
they never lose their clarity. There's no point where Jonny Greewood or Ed O'Brien will
suddenly look up and say "Where the fuck are we?" There are no train wrecks in
Radiohead; every album and performance is wretching. God, these guys have suffered, or
they can fake it like nobody else."

Big Ideas
Don't get any big ideas
they're not gonna happen
You paint your house white
and feel the noise
but they'll be something missing
Just when you've found it, it's gone
Just when you feel it, you don't
??
Don't get any big ideas
they're not going to happen
You'll go to hell for what your dirty mind is thinking
Just when you've found it, its gone
Just when you feel it, you don't
??
------------------
Exit Music (For A Film)
Wake from your sleep,
the drying of your tears,
Today we escape, we escape.
Pack and get dressed
before your father hears us,
before all hell breaks loose.
Breathe, keep breathing,
don't lose your nerve.
Breathe, keep breathing,
I can't do this alone.
Sing us a song,
a song to keep us warm,
there's such a chill, such a chill.
And you can laugh a spineless laugh,
we hope your rules and wisdom choke you.
And now we are one
in everlasting peace,
we hope that you choke, that you choke,
we hope that you choke, that you choke,
we hope that you choke, that you choke.

Thinking About You
Been thinking about you, your records are here,
your eyes are on my wall, your teeth are over there.
But I'm still no-one, and you're now a star,
what do you care?
Been thinking about you, and there's no rest,
shit I still love you, still see you in bed.
But I'm playing with myself, and what do you care
when the other men are far, far better.
All the things you've got,
all the things you need,
who bought you cigarettes,
Who bribed the company to come and see you honey?
I've been thinking about you, so how can you sleep?
These people aren't your friends, they're paid to kiss your feet.
They don't know what I know and why should you care
when I'm not there.
Been thinking about you, and there's no rest,
should I still love you, still see you in bed.
But I'm playing with myself, what do you care,
when I'm not there.
All the things you've got,
she'll never need,
all the things you've got.
I've bled and I bleed to please you.
Been thinking about you.

I've given all I can,
it's not enough,
I've given all I can
but we're still on the payroll.
This is what you get,

when you mess with us.
For a minute there
I lost myself, I lost myself.
Phew, for a minute there,
I lost myself, I lost myself.
For a minute there
I lost myself, I lost myself.
Phew, for a minute there,

In a little while
I'll be gone
The moment's already passed
Yeah it's gone

Where I End and You Begin
there's a gap in between
there's a gap where we meet
where i end and you begin
and i'm sorry for us
the dinosaurs roam the earth
the sky turns green
where i end and you begin
i am up in the clouds
i am up in the clouds
and i can't and i can't come down
i can watch but not take part
where i end and where you start
where you, you left me alone
you left me alone.
X' will mark the place
like parting the waves
like a house falling in the sea.
i will eat you all alive
i will eat you all alive
i will eat you all alive
i will eat you all alive

there'll be no more lies
there'll be no more lies

The Trickster
Lost in the mountains
Rust in my brain
The air is sacred here
In spite of your claim
Up on the rooftops
Out of reach
Trickster is meaningless
Trickster is weak
He's talking out the world
Talking out the world
Hey, hey, hey, this is only halfway
Hey, hey, hey, this is only halfway
I wanted you so bad
That I couldn't say
All these things fall apart
We wanted out so bad
That we couldn't say
These things fall apart
We're talking out the world
Talking out the world
Hey, hey, hey, this is only halfway
Hey, hey, hey, this is only halfway
Truant kids
A can of brick dust worms
Who do not want to climb down from
Their chestnut tree
Long white gloves
Police check carefully
Escaped from the zoo
The perfect child facsimile is
Talking out the world
Talking out the world
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

You Never Wash Up After Yourself
i must get out once in a while
everything is starting to die
the dust settles the worms dig
the spiders crawl over the bed
i must get out once in a while
i eat all day and i now i am fat
yesterday's meal is hugging the plate
you never wash up after yourself

Gagging Order
I know what you're thinking
But I'm not your property
No matter what you say
No matter what you say
Move along, there's nothing left to see
Just a body, nothing left to see
A couple more for breakfast
A little more for tea
Just to take the edge off
Just to take the edge off
Move along, there's nothing left to see
Just a body, pouring down the street
Move along, theres nothing left to see
Just a body, nothing left to see
Move along

Fog
There's a little child
Running round this house
And he never leaves
He will never leave
And the fog comes up from the sewers
And glows in the dark
Baby alligators in the sewers grow up fast
Grow up fast
Anything you want it can be done
How did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
Somethings will never wash away
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?

Forever Your Song
Otherside
RHCP
Chorus
How long how long will I slide
Separate my side I don’t
I don’t believe it’s bad
Slit my throat
It’s all I ever
I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up it brought up the past
Once you know you can never go back
I’ve got to take it on the otherside
Centuries are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I’ve got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on
Chorus
Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtray’s full and I’m spillin’ my guts
She wants to know am I still a slut
I’ve got to take it on the otherside
Scarlet starlet and she’s in my bed
A candidate for my soul mate bled
Push the trigger and pull the thread
I’ve got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on
Chorus
Turn me on take me for a hard ride
Burn me out leave me on the otherside
I yell and tell it that
It’s not my friend
I tear it down I tear it down
And then it’s born again
Chorus
How long I don’t believe it’s bad
Slit my throat
It’s all I ever
