I would say John D. to thread but he is elsewhere.

(So Dr. C to thread!)

I'm like the Tony France version of Candyman, all you gotta do is mention the Stockholm Monsters and I show up

Why do they speak when there's nothing to say?
They'll just go on and on and on and on all day
well they think they're special, but we don't think so
and we'll try to stop them, but they'll only grow

easy to find, is it easy to find?
we open the door, and everything's fine
easy to tell, is it easy to tell?
she was living in a private hell

everyone's tired, they haven't got time
and they're all too busy trying to make their lives right
and they can't stand the fires that burn in the night
they say they're all designed to all burn bright

easy to find, is it easy to find?
we open the door, and everything's fine
easy to tell, is it easy to tell?
she was living in a private hell

copywriters insist on all they could
and they think they're special, but they always would
and they never thought that life would be so good
and they never thought that life would be so good

They have one song that could be a step-into-the-boxing ring song, but I don't remember the title.

Or amateur wrestling ring, if you prefer.

John D beat me to it!

The Monsters - still utterly wonderful.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 07:25 (twenty years ago)

while we're here, "your uniform" lyrics, anyone?

a-anyone?

― joseph (joseph), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 07:45 (twenty years ago)

Why does everyone want Monsters lyrics all of a sudden? Are cover versions being planned? Can they not be deciphered from the recds?

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 08:19 (twenty years ago)

It's for the Factory karaoke sampler, Dr C.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Tuesday, 4 January 2005 13:38 (twenty years ago)

Of course! Also featuring Crispy Ambulance - "When Nightfall Ends The Ceasefire", Section 25 - "Charnel Ground", and ACR - "Crippled Child". Happy days.

A singalonga for all times. (Special bonus cut: the a capella version of New Order's "Elegia.")

i do a stunning rendition of "moves like you" in the shower; it should be included for certain

Somene dumped a bunch of Wake and Stockholm Monsters at Amoeba the other day :). Picked up Miss Moonlight and Happlily Ever After for cheap, even though I had the cds. I have never seen their vinyl around before.

Giving a listen to Alma Mater right now...

Okay so I forgot how great "Decalogue" is.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 4 November 2008 18:55 (sixteen years ago)

wow. this thread was started by the guy from Studio.

― mizzell, Tuesday, 4 November 2008 19:35 (sixteen years ago)

Wait...really?

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 4 November 2008 19:39 (sixteen years ago)

idk, that's his name.

― mizzell, Tuesday, 4 November 2008 19:40 (sixteen years ago)

Certainly makes sense, given the music.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 4 November 2008 19:40 (sixteen years ago)

And he's requesting it be sent to Service's website, and that's Lissvik's own label IIRC. Interesting.

― Telephone thing, Wednesday, 5 November 2008 22:12 (sixteen years ago)

x-post. The whole album's great, Ned!! "Everytime it happens, it happens so fast"

― Dr.C, Wednesday, 5 November 2008 22:34 (sixteen years ago)
