Any Colour You Like Lyrics


Any Colour You Like
  • The title is often attributed to something Henry Ford said about the Model T automobile: "You can have it any color you like... as long as it's black!" According to The Pink Floyd Encyclopedia , however, the song title is from a catch phrase used by former Pink Floyd road manager Chris Adamson. When asked for a guitar, Adamson would respond, "Any colour you like, they're all blue." He may have picked this up from local street traders in Cambridge.
  • This is an instrumental that is musically similar to "Breathe," and is unofficially called "Breathe (2nd reprise)."
  • The song used advanced effects for the time both in the keyboard and the guitar. The VCS 3 synthesizer was fed through a long tape loop to create the rising and falling keyboard solo. David Gilmour used 2 guitars with the UniVibe guitar effect to create the harmonizing guitar solo for the rest of the song.
  • Roger Waters, in an interview with the author Phil Rose, stated: "In Cambridge where I lived, people would come from London in a van - a truck - open the back and stand on the tailboard of the truck, and the truck's full of stuff that they're trying to sell. And they have a very quick and slick patter, and they're selling things like crockery, china, sets of knives and forks. All kinds of different things, and they sell it very cheap with a patter. They tell you what it is, and they say 'It's ten plates, lady, and it's this, that, and the other, and eight cups and saucers, and for the lot I'm asking NOT ten pounds, NOT five pounds, NOT three pounds... fifty bob to you!,' and they get rid of this stuff like this. If they had sets of china, and they were all the same colour, they would say, 'You can 'ave 'em, ten bob to you, love. Any colour you like, they're all blue.' And that was just part of that patter. So, metaphorically, 'Any Colour You Like' is interesting, in that sense, because it denotes offering a choice where there is none. And it's also interesting that in the phrase, 'Any colour you like, they're all blue,' I don't know why, but in my mind it's always 'they're all blue', which, if you think about it, relates very much to the light and dark, sun and moon, good and evil. You make your choice but it's always blue."

    Pearl Hart Lyrics


    Lady Pearl in jail lady Pearl in jail
    You'll rise
    Lady Pearl in jail lady Pearl in jail
    You'll fight

    A letter from her mother now dying in her bed
    Get on home quickly with the medicine
    No money in her pocket no wheels to go ahead
    She grabbed her colt 44 and

    Went along the mountain side
    Mama love I'm on my way don't you cry
    I'll make it just in time
    Mama love I'm on my way don't you cry
    Please hold on

    The young lady Pearl was dressed
    In a man's jeans and a shirt
    A stage coach was stopped
    And robbed were three passengers
    Gave each of them a dollar
    Enough for them to eat
    Then she disappeared down south and

    Went along the mountain side
    Mama love I'm on my way don't you cry
    I'll make it just in time
    Mama love I'm on my way don't you cry

    Lady Pearl in jail lady Pearl in jail
    You'll rise
    Lady Pearl in jail lady Pearl in jail
    You'll fight

    Pearl Hart
  • Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies tells the tales of several different American outlaws and gunslingers of the 19th century. This song tells the true story of the noble lady outlaw Pearl Hart, who held up a stagecoach to buy medicine for her dying mother. Armed with a Colt 44, Pearl netted $430. Volbeat vocalist and guitarist Michael Poulsen told BraveWords.com how he learned of Pearl Hart's story: "I started writing those kinds of lyrics and I locked myself into this bubble. It is a process where I read a lot of books and get inspired by movies. When it comes to Pearl Hart, she was a character that I was reading about way back. I had forgotten all about her, but when I started writing material for this new album, I wanted not only to bring up some of the legendary male gunslingers; I wanted to look into the shady ladies as well. I remembered reading about Pearl Hart, so I got back to some of the old books and there she was."

    Living Doll
  • This song was from the soundtrack to the film Serious Charge, which was Cliff Richard's movie debut. It was written by Lionel Bart who also wrote the West End and Broadway musical Oliver. It was originally intended for the singer Duffy Power before it was included in Serious Charge.
  • This was originally a Rock song, and as both Cliff and his backing band thought that a song about a blow-up doll was uncool, they originally weren't planning to record it. One of his backing musicians, Bruce Welch, suggested a slower tempo like a country song would work better, so they rearranged it into the now familiar form.
  • According to 1000 UK #1 Hits by Jon Kutner and Spencer Leigh, Lionel Bart said, "I had taken it from one of those ads in the Sunday papers for a doll that did everything and I wrote it in 10 minutes flat."
  • In the UK, this was the biggest-selling single of 1959.
  • In 1986 Cliff did a humorous, anarchic re-recording of this for BBC's charity appeal Comic Relief. It featured the cast of BBC's comedy Young Ones series, which were Rik Mayall (Rick), Adrian Edmonson (Vyvyan), Nigel Planer (Neil) and Christopher Ryan (Mike). When it topped the UK chart Cliff became the first artist to have the same song in two different versions at number one.
  • This was the first of Cliff Richard 14 UK chart-toppers. He is the only act in the UK to achieve a #1 single in each of the first five decades since the inception of the UK singles chart in 1952.

    Lola Montez Lyrics


    Feel the fire where she walks
    Lola Montez so beautiful
    Shady and a tempered dame
    Blinding your eyes with her spider dance

    Her performance utterly erotic subversive to all ideas
    And for public morality
    And cool as she was, she didn't care
    See the miner throw his gold
    Lifting her skirt howling loud like a wolf
    Hell raising and full of sin
    When Lola was dancing and showing her skin

    Wherever she walks
    She will be captivating all the men
    Don't look in her eyes
    You might fall and find the love of your life, heavenly
    But she'll catch you in her web
    The love of your life, yeah

    Feel the fire where she walks
    Lola Montez so beautiful
    Shady and a tempered dame
    Blinding your eyes with her spider dance

    Well notorious I have been
    But never for fame that's what she said
    Dear Henry taste my whip
    Never to see any words you print

    Wherever she walks
    She will be captivating all the men
    Don't look in her eyes
    You might fall and find the love of your life, heavenly
    But she'll catch you in her web
    The love of your life, yeah

    Oh Lola I'm sure that the love would have been
    The key to all your pain, the key to all your pain
    No words will later come
    Did the spider bite your tongue
    We will surely not forget
    We will surely not forget
    The Lola spider dance

    Whoa
    Don't look in her eyes
    You might fall and find the love of your life, heavenly
    But she'll catch you in her web
    The love of your life, yeah

    Lola Montez
  • This song details the life of Irish born Lola Montez, (1821 – 1861) who became famous as an erotic dancer. Her infamous "Spider Dance" ensnared King Ludwig I of Bavaria and she became his mistress. "She's very interesting if you look into all the details around her; she was definitely shady," Volbeat frontman Michael Poulsen told BraveWords.com . "I just thought, how the hell? If you read about her, there's so many things that come up. She's been all around, flirting with a lot of royal men. At that time, having the kind of act that she had with her Spider Dance… people were coming to her show, the miners were throwing their gold in front of her because she would be lifting up her skirt so they could see everything. She was very controversial, but at the same time she was very beautiful and all the men were totally drawn to her. It's a very interesting character."
  • Volbeat debuted the song during the band's appearance in June 2013 at Germany's Rock Am Ring Festival.
  • Singer-songwriter Joanna Newsom also tells the story of Lola Montez in her 11-minute epic "Have One On Me."
  • Poulsen told Classic Rock magazine about his writing for the Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies album: "I wanted to bring in some characters that people weren't so familiar with or maybe had heard a little about," he said. "Lola Montez is not a typical character, the same with Pearl Hart. I wanted to find characters who were a little bit deranged."

    "Mostly the inspiration came from books as I read a lot," he continued. "The same with Black Bart who is one of my favourite characters. Of those three names they are all real characters who were alive."

    Year Of Tha Boomerang Lyrics


    Year Of Tha Boomerang
  • Frantz Fanon coined the phrase "Year of the Boomerang" in a speech about the time when violent uprisings will come back and nail imperialists in the face.
  • Dachau, Germany was the site of the "Dachau Massacre" in 1945, where, following liberation of the Dachau concentration camp, American soldiers allegedly murdered 520 surrendering Waffen-SS soldiers.
  • French psychiatrist Frantz Fanon, while working in Algeria's Blida-Joinville in 1956, resigned from his position in the French government when he heard from his Algerian patients stories of torture by the French during the Algerian war, and, instead, worked openly with the Algerian Independence movement from then on. He was an ambassador to Ghana, as well as a military strategist. He was best known, however, for his writing, which established him as an influential figure of the anti-racist political movements of the time. He died in Washington D.C in 1961 under the name Ibrahim Fanon while battling Leukemia. He was 36 years old."
  • Mount Tai, or Mount Tai Shan, as it as known, is one of the "Five Sacred Mountains' of China, associated with sunrise, birth, and renewal.
  • This song appears on the soundtrack for the movie Higher Learning, and excerpts of the song are used throughout the film.
  • In the live version of this song performed at Cal State in 1994, Zack de La Rocha introduces the song by saying, "Some men dream of a patriarchal society," explaining that L7 (a female band), who took the stage previously, was their (pro-patriarchal society men's) "worst nightmare." This is a direct reference to the opening lines of the song, "Tha sistas are in, so check the front line," denouncing oppression of women's rights.

    Laundromat Lyrics


    What do you think of that?
    I'm sleeping down at the Laundromat,
    If you should pass by,
    Be sure to drop right in.
    Well I don't have no clothes to clean,
    To put inside the machine,
    It was the craziest place,
    I have ever been.

    Come 'round and meet my friends,
    They'll be there with me,
    With me to the end,
    With me to the end,
    With me to the end.

    They say I told you so,
    Maybe bad times come and go,
    If you don't know that right now,
    But then you'll never know.

    Well I don't have no clothes to clean,
    To put inside the machine,
    It's the craziest place,
    I have ever been.

    Come 'round and meet my friends
    They'll be there with me,
    With me to the end,
    With me to the end,
    With me to the end.

    They say I told you so,
    But baby bad times come and go,
    If you don't know that right now,
    But then you'll never know.

    What do you think of that,
    I'm on the street like an old stray cat,
    If you should look for me,
    You'd know exactly where to go.

    Come 'round and meet my friends
    They'll be there with me,
    With me to the end,
    With me to the end,
    With me to the end.

    Laundromat
  • This is the opening track from Gallagher's self-titled debut album. It became something of a fan favourite and a staple of his live shows, appearing on numerous live albums, including one of his most acclaimed records, Live In Europe (1972).
  • The song was written during the breakup of Gallagher's blues band Taste, and inspired by a public laundromat in an Earls Court bedsit where the group lived. According to Gallagher's brother and sound engineer Donal Gallagher, "Taste were in the charts, headlining major festivals, but not seeing the proceeds. Later, when I became Rory's manager, I insisted we go to court to get the royalties. Even then Rory was reluctant. He didn't like conflict." (Sunday Times, 2012)

    Rory's legendary good-nature seems evident in the lyrics, which seem to detail his delight in "sleeping down at the Laundromat", having "no clothes to clean", but meeting friends who will be "with me to the end."
  • In a 1991 interview with All Music, Gallagher said: "I try to sit down and write a Rory Gallagher song, which generally happens to be quite bluesy. I try to find different issues, different themes and different topics that haven't been covered before...I've done songs in all the different styles...train blues, drinking blues, economic blues. But I try to find a slightly different angle on all these things. The music can be very traditional, but you can sort of creep into the future with the lyrics."
  • A tribute band, formed in 2000 in Holland, named themselves after this song.

    Cygnus X-1 Book 2: Hemispheres Lyrics


    Cygnus X-1 Book 2: Hemispheres
  • This song continues the story from Cygnus X-1 on the album A Farewell to Kings. It uses the Greek mythology of Apollo, the god of reason, and Dionysus, the god of love.

    The followers of Apollo believe straight logic can lead them while the followers of Dionysus believe that love will lead them. Civil war ensues until the adventurer from Cygnus X-1 comes across this world. Since traveling through Cygnus X-1, a black hole, his body has been destroyed but he can still see and think. He becomes upset with the war and cries out to the people, Apollo, and Dionysus. The people hear his cry, stop fighting, unite, and proclaim the hero Cygnus, the god of balance.
  • Kicking off the Rush album Hemispheres, this song runs 18:08 and is an exemplar of the band's progressive rock leanings at the time. For their next album, Permanent Waves, they took a different approach, with more compact, tuneful songs like "The Spirit Of Radio" and "Freewill." These radio-friendly songs earned Rush a much wider audience.
  • According to Rush lead singer Geddy Lee, recording vocals for this song and the others on the Hemispheres album was a miserable experience, since they recorded the music first without making sure he could properly sing over the tracks.

    Man and woman try to keep a tie
    While looking at what passes by
    Village thieves and all the tramps
    Somewhere someone left some gaps
    Look before you leap my friend
    Should God take you in his hand
    It's a very small price for your sins you spend
    And there's a man with a pitchfork around the bend

    Alright
    The evil churns, you'll start to burn
    But will you crack, you can't turn back, oh no
    Review all of your choices now
    There's no one 'round to show you how
    But the hand comin' down has a-reached it's end
    You know who's still around the bend

    Review Your Choices
  • Satanism in Heavy Metal is a misunderstood trope, with the songs often reflecting more complex views on religion than simply blind allegiance to the Devil. Much of it is also theatrics - AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and a host of lesser Metalmen have created a buzz with hints of Beelzebub in their lyrics.

    Pentagram, however, had a more sincere interest in the subject, as evidenced by their band name. "Review Your Choices," written by lead singer Bobby Liebling , explains that there is an alternative to God which is worthy of consideration. When we spoke with Liebling in 2013, he explained: "I remember I was real deep into Satanism, which is the wrong way to go. I'll tell you that right now, I don't care how self serving you are. You don't step on people's faces to get there. I learned that the hard way."

    What Do You Say
  • The first single from Filter's sixth album The Sun Comes Out Tonight, this song was written by their frontman Richard Patrick along with guitarist Jon Radtke and producer Bob Marlette. In our interview with Richard Patrick , he explained that they had been listening to the British Rock band Kasabian, which was an influence on the track. "They had kind of a cool groove, so we were inspired by that and picked up on that groove, and started writing around that," he said. "Then we put it into Filter chords, which is always way down by the third, fourth fret. You know, the third, sixth, and seventh fret. All that darkness all around in there."
  • The lyrical hook on this song - "Hey, hey, what do you say?" - is a common expression said in a variety of situations, similar to "Hey Man Nice Shot," a phrase that became Filter's biggest hit.

    "I was thinking, 'Hey, hey, what do you say?' It really doesn't matter anyway, and everyone bitches and nothing gets done," Patrick told us. "Everybody spent a ton of money getting Obama into office, all the poor people, and as soon as he gets in, five guys from the Tea Party stop everything and now we can't even get the government doing anything. Everybody's screaming and yelling all at the same time and no one's listening. Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh. No one's taking the time to actually sit there and listen. They're just out there making money. Rush does it for the money. Bill O'Reilly said he loves the money, he doesn't really care about what he's saying, as long as he makes money."
  • Patrick says that this song is "A take on this constant noise level in society." The lyrics came from conversations he had with Jon Radtke and Bob Marlette about global warming, and how powerless they feel as politicians refuse to take action. "The point is: what do you say, it doesn't really matter anyways," said Patrick. "When everything goes down, it's not going to matter. What's going to happen here, we'll laugh about it all one day. When it all goes down, the only thing that you'll be able to do is laugh about it and just throw your hands up."

    You gotta rise with me!
    Cause you're so vulnerable.

    No need for sympathy now

    Every time I try to say it words they only complicated
    Every time I try to say it words they only complicated

    Baby, baby
    Baby, baby

    Baby I
  • Ariana Grande's second single from her debut album, Yours Truly, finds her expressing her special love for someone but admitting that she can't formulate her strong feelings into words. "Baby I got love for thee, so deep inside of me I don't know where to start," she croons. The song was released on July 22, 2013.
  • The song was written and produced by Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds (who is best known for his contribution to the creation of New Jack Swing in the late 1980s), Antonio Dixon, and Patrick "J. Que" Smith. The trio also penned together Beyoncé's hit single, "Best Thing I Never Had."
  • Several reviewers compared Ariana's vocal performance on the song with another singer who has a large vocal range and a whistle register: Mariah Carey. The Sam & Cat star told MTV News that her debut album was inspired, in part, by the superstar songstress. "You know I love just like old R&B. I love the '90s, that whole vibe. I love Mariah Carey, of course, she's the goddess of all vocals," she said.
  • The song has a strong nostalgia vibe to it. Ariana told MTV News: "I love that. It felt like '90s, Aaliyah, Destiny's Child. I like that it has that throwback feeling to it. And that's when I grew up and it was such a feel-good song to me."

    "And I love what it says," she continued. "I love it's about loving somebody so much that you just don't know what to say. I think that's really cute. I laughed the first time I heard the lyrics. I like that I get to sing a little more on it... It's quirky."
  • Ariana told MTV News that she can relate to the song's lyrical content about getting tongue-tied when you're with somebody you like. "Personally when it comes to me expressing myself with other people, especially if it's towards the beginning of a crush or the beginning of a relationship, I'm so awkward and so flustered in that way," she said. "I'm always so nervous to express myself that I feel like it's a very me song in that way."
  • The song's 1990s throwback video was filmed July 28-29, 2013. "When I said 'I want it to look like this,' I said like a TLC, Fresh Prince type vibe," Grande told Billboard magazine. "I was like, 'Let's just get really silly, 90's amazing outfits, and just go out and dance around and have fun."
