The chorus goes "E's are good!  E's are good!", so it's pretty obvious it's
about ecstacy.  But the boys say that they made the song only to ridicule all
E-taking idiots they've met at raves.  But at the same time (just like the Orb,
who seem to be constantly stoned) they seem very pro-drugs when they're being interviewed.  It's all a bit confusing.

I know the commercial, but I can't remember paying attention to the music.

Enya's "Oronoco Flow" from the album _Watermark_.

If anyone sees a commercial for Free Spirit shows and wonders what the
ethereal, female vocal, music is, it's Pamela Golden's "Ballet Dreams"
from the (very good) album _Happens All the Time_.

I did.  Silly, I know.  I guess that, to me, the most important thing when it 
comes to liking a group is to what degree their music there music stands out as
being something different that not a lot of other groups sound like.

(I think I just set the world record for a poorly constructed sentence, but I 
think my point was made...hopefully.)

Also, it helps if the band in question pioneered the sound.  For example, I 
kinda like the Chili Peppers and Fishbone, but I could do without the 
50 jillion other bands that jumped on the "metal-funk" band wagon.  Anyway,
diversity cures boredom.

however it is very different than all the others.  Its much more subdued and
calm, but I like it anyway (I'm listening to it now).  But if your just
starting to listen to them, I'd reccomend getting Bossanova *last* because it
is so different.  The order I got them in was:

1. Trompe Le Monde (Who are the Pixies?)
2. Surfer Rosa (Only cost me $7, but it is AWESOME!)
3. Doolittle (I ink I found my favorite group...)
4. Come On, Pilgrim (I think I found my favorite group...)

I rented a movie from Tower Video the other the day that featured
Sonic Youth back in 1985.  The vid didn't mention what songs they were
playing, and since I'm just getting into them I didn't know what songs
they played.  All I know is that it was intense!  They were wailing
on their guitars and using lots of distortion and feedback.  During
one song, one of the guitarist put a drum stick between the neck of
the guitar and the strings, and used another drum stick as a pick!
That was wild!

And BTW, I'd like to thank the people that sent me info on Sonic Youth.

Organization: The Ohio State University
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 1992 00:39:37 GMT

Perhaps this issue has been addressed before, but at least no one
can say I'm not trying to change the focus of the last few
weeks worth of threads.

Is there any way in which Shepherd Moons could be seen as a
concept album?  One tiny thing makes me ask this--at the beginning
of Evacuee, there is a "false" opening which consists of a couple
of bars of Marble Halls, interrupted by what sounds like thunder.
Then follows Evacuee, then Lothlorien, *then* Marble Halls.  I can't
really find a common theme among the songs (at least the ones with
English lyrics), but I have noticed that the Caribbean Blue video
is quite obviously influenced by children's literature, most notably
the illustrators Chris van Allsburg and Maurice Sendak.

The lyrics to Evacuee are about feeling like a child again (with
attached feelings of happiness and melancholy) and Marble Halls
(from an old Irish operetta?) could be read as a child's fantasy
inspired by reading tales of knights and romance.  Any
suggestions?  If you don't want to post, e-mail me; I am
sincere about this.
