Make me smile Steve Harley

You’ve done it all, you’ve broken every code and pulled the rebel to the floor
You spoilt the game, no matter what you say for only metal - what a bore!
Blue eyes, blue eyes, how come you tell so many lies?

Chorus:
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, run on wild
There’s nothing left, all gone and run away

Maybe you’ll tarry for a while
It’s just a test, a game for us to play win or lose, it’s hard to smile
Resist, resist, it’s from yourself you have to hide

Chorus

There ain’t no more, you’ve taken everything from my believe in Mother Earth
How can you ignore my faith in everything when I know what Faith is and what it’s worth
Away, away, and don’t say maybe you’ll try

 

[bad kitty]

Ok, that was fun. Let's play some more.

The second highest selling ever Swedish group's first hit

For some reason I thought it was "Musta Been Love" off of the Pretty Woman Soundtrack

Roxette
Look Sharp! (1988)
The Look

1-2-3-4
Walking like a man,
hitting like a hammer,
she's a juvenile scam.
Never was a quitter,
tasty like a raindrop,
she's got the look.
Heavenly bound
cause heaven's got a number
when she's spinning me around,
Kissing is a colour,
her loving is a wild dog,
she's got the look.

She's got the look.
She's got the look.
What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue.
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
and I go: la la la la la
she's got the look.

Fire in the ice,
naked to the T-bone
is a lover's disguise.
Banging on the head drum,
shaking like a mad bull,
she's got the look.
Swaying to the band,
moving like a hammer,
she's a miracle man.
Loving is the ocean,
Kissing is the wet sand,
she's got the look.

And she goes:
na na na na na na na na.

Savage Garden
I Want You

Anytime I need to see your face
I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place where your crystal mind and
Magenta feelings take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola

I don't need to try to explain;
I just hold on tight
And If it happens again, I might move so slightly
To the arms and the lips and the face of the human cannonball
That I need to, I want to

Come Stand a little bit closer
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you
When I get to you

Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh I'd die to find out

I'm the kind of person who endorses a deep commitment
Getting comfy getting perfect is what I live for
But a look, and then a smell of perfume
It's like I'm down on the floor
And I Don't know what I'm in for

Conversation has a time and place
In the interaction of a lover and a mate,
But the time of talking, using symbols, using words
Can be likened to a deep sea diver who is swimming with a raincoat

Come stand a little bit closer
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you
When I get to you

Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh I'd die to find out

Anytime I need to see your face
I just close my
And I am taken to a place where your crystal mind and
Magenta feelings take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola

I don't need to try to explain;
I just hold on tight
And If it happens again, I might move so slightly
To the arms and the lips and the face of the human cannonball
That I need to, I want to

Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh, I'd die to find out
Ooh, I want you
I don't know if I need you
But, ooh I'd die to find out


Ahhh the memories.

Gimme more them were easy.

Candy (by Iggy Pop with Kate Pierson off Brick By Brick - 1990)

It's a rainy afternoon In 1990
The big city...geez, it's been 20 years!
Candy,
You were so fine
Beautiful, beautiful Girl from the north
You burned my heart with a flickering torch
I had a dream that no one else could see
You gave me love for free

CHORUS
Candy Candy Candy
I can't let you go
All my life you're haunting me
I loved you so
Candy I can't let you go
Life is crazy
Candy baby

Yeah, well it hurt me real bad when you left
I'm glad you got out
But I miss you I've had a hole in my heart
For so long
I've learned to take it and Just smile along
Down on the street
Those men are all the same
I need a love
Not games
Not games

CHORUS

Shiny Happy People/Me In Honey (by REM with Kate Pierson off Out Of Time - 1991)

Shiny happy people laughing
Meet me in the crowd
People people
Throw your love around
Love me love me
Take it into town
Happy happy
Put it in the ground
Where the flowers grow
Gold and silver shine

Shiny happy people holding hands
Shiny happy people laughing

Everyone around love them, love them
Put it in your hands
Take it take it
There's no time to cry
Happy happy
Put it in your heart
Where tomorrow shines
Gold and silver shine

Shiny happy people holding hands
Shiny happy people laughing

NINE INCH NAILS: CLOSER
Mark Romanek, 1994

This one is a monster. It opens with an inspired visual metaphor for the nature of industrial music -- a beating human heart mounted on the back of a chair, throbbing and spewing steam in time to the mechanical lub-dub of "Closer"'s opening drum beat. Director Mark Romanek has taken his knocks from critics who've labeled him a rip-off artist. But I prefer to think of what he does as cultural "sampling." At any rate, I find it transfixing. "Closer" is an explicit homage to the grotesquely baroque photography of Joel-Peter Witkin, although it's also indebted to such folks as Man Ray and Jan Svankmajer proteges The Brothers Quay. "Closer" borrows Witkin's visual style, with its artificially aged film stock, turn-of-the-century sepia tones, and fixation on fleshy decay. There's nothing as full-stop outrageous as Witkin's "The Kiss" (a photograph of two neatly cleaved halves of a severed head in liplock) on display, but Romanek makes good use of a hog's head, gynecological illustrations, and bondage paraphernalia. And, oh yes, a crucified monkey. Over it all, Reznor intones, again and again, "I want to fuck you like an animal," a ridiculous sentiment given phantasmal weight by the imagery that accompanies it. The version of "Closer" that wound up in heavy rotation on MTV was censored with unusual wit -- a silent film-style title card reading "scene missing" was made up and inserted so that the rhythm of the video wouldn't be interrupted when shots were pulled out. Most of the footage of the aforementioned monkey was irised so that only a portion of the frame was visible, and a few shots of female nudity were optically fuzzed. (Romanek was reportedly furious.) Combined with the driving dance rhythms that are layered upon themselves to bring "Closer" to an enervating climax, this is one of the most disturbing -- and entertaining -- short films I've ever seen. Romanek has made similarly brilliant videos for Sonic Youth, Madonna, and Fiona Apple, among others, but "Closer" remains his greatest achievement, the perfect marriage of tortured pop song and splendid Grand Guignol visuals. (Available on Nine Inch Nails's Closure, VHS.)

Faith No More
The Real Thing (1989)
Epic

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet
You want it all but you can't have it
It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?...

Closer by Nine Inch Nails


You let me violate you. You let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you. You let me complicate you
Help me I broke apart my insides. Help me I've got no soul to sell
Help me the only thing that works for me. Help me get away from myself

I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god

You can have my isolation. You can have the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith. You can have my everything
Help me you tear down my reason. Help me it's your sex I can smell
Help me you make me perfect. Help me become somebody else

I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god

Through every forest, above the trees
Within my stomach. Scraped off my knees
I drink the honey inside your hive
You are the reason I stay alive
