turns out, it's the goddamn Stone Roses. of course.
dig that ol' time religion, cat. there's the bit that makes me think of the Stones, the Rolling Stones, that is: hear 'em whip the women just around midnight...Brown fucks with the Jesus thing and makes her black and a woman. all in one song. there's this crazy, menacing bass line that sounds like the foundation for a million "new metal" bands and there's Ian's Mancunian accent. "the Messiah-err is my sistah.." Squire's guitar is, as always brilliant. his work swirls, it creeps and it sounds almost like he's channeling the American South or Zepp or a lil Hendrix.oh, and I learned a FunFact! **Beck makes a cameo appearance in the U.S. video for Love Spreads as a gold-prospector
Love Spreads
Love spreads her arms
Waits there for the nails
I forgive you boy, I will prevail
Too much to take, some cross to bear
I'm hiding in the trees with a picnic
She's over there, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
She didn't scream
She didn't make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don't leave town
Coal black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning
They're hurting her again
Let me put you in the picture
Let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister
Ain't no king man, she's my queen
Let me put you in the picture
Let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister
Ain't no king man, she's my queen
I had a dream, I've seen the light
Don't put it out, yeah she's all right
Yeah she's my sister
She didn't scream
She didn't make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don't leave town
Coal black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning
They're hurting her again
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me put you in the picture
Let me show you what I mean
The Messiah is my sister
Ain't no king man, she's my queen(x8)
I had a dream, I've seen the light
Don't put it out, yeah she's alright
Yeah, she's my sister
