Built To Spill - Joyride

This part of the song is called the second verse
Sounds just like the first verse but with different words
It only has three chords and they are A, E and D
They are A and E and D
Then it goes to B minor, D
A little A, another E, then D again

Epic Problem by Fugazi

Perfect match of form and content. The lyrics are a letter being dictated, and when McKaye sings “Stop”, the drums stop, before pushing forwards again.

Strange Overtones - David Byrne & Brian Eno

This groove is out of fashion
These beats are 20 years old
…
Strange Overtones in the music you are playing
I’ll harmonize
…
Your song still needs a chorus
I know you’ll figure it out
The rising of the verses
A change of key will let you out

Is this the bit where we’re supposed to make guitars collide,
And is this the bit where we release all that raw energy

A slight tangent, but I ran an indie night in Kingston for around 15 years. One night in the mid-late 00s, to avoid boredom, we tried to do an entire set of songs that introduced each other lyrically. A few from memory: Great DJ (ending on “the drums” repeated) followed by The Drums. Let’s Dance to Joy Division followed by the obvious. Out of Space (ending on “I’ll take your brain to another dimension” repeated) followed by Wolfmother’s Dimension…

We only lasted a few hours, before defaulting to autopilot, as it was pretty disjointed and the quality control was very low.
