You know it makes me sad
to see you feel so bad
but you know I've seen it happen so many times before

There's no reason to feel blue
Because of what he says to you
And I wouldn't want you to feel bad because of what he does to you

Just trust in me
and girl you will see
that you won't have to cry, no you won't have to cry, no you won't have to cry any more.

nononon, its not that; its like this guy on a stage going 'the fucking.... the fucking.... the fucking..... the fucking.... the fucking....'

he's just like reciting something; i can swear this is like a classic which i forgot what it was.

help me out

You've got me totally non sequitored. You're blowing my mind.

Are you on something?

king_buzzo 01.22.2008 04:41 PM

Oh, sure. Now I know what you're talking about.

I don't remember either though.

Sorry.

control this haha

king_buzzo 01.23.2008 04:26 AM

nononon its not anything to do with the band itself, they just see another guy onstage doing this.

It's a poem called "Evidently Chicken Town" by John Cooper Clarke, who is the guy reciting it. A cleaned up version is recited before the real JD "Transmission" live performance on the BBC

Fuck. This is about the Joy Division song "Control." Okay, this is where the point about how grammar is helpful in communicating could be made. If you had called this thread "part in 'Control' ," you'd have given me a clue what you were talking about. I would have know immediately that 'Control', as in quotes, was a title, and I would have surmised it was the title of a song.

Oh shit, I included that on my Sopranos compilation. Hmm, streaming movies from ... , probably not the best way to watch...overall though, I was very impressed.
