# I'm listening
to Another Postcard by the Barenaked Ladies.
It has to be one of the most bizarre ideas for a song ever.

# nah..
Nuff Cuts by Lightyear. That's a weird song!

# Is that Lightyear
the punk-ska band from Derby?

# The very same!
They're splitting up this month!

# Why?
I went to uni with Saxophonist Ben a couple of years back, I still have a t-shirt and the demo they did with evil macaroni.

What happened?

# When I saw them, Ben looked like he was gonna kill me!
I jumpped down of the stage, got my foot caught in a load of wires and ripped his microphone down as he was playing into it! :)

# He wasn't the worst I don't think
I used to hear endless tales of the band in various places.
Usually ended up with most of them naked and pissing on drunks.
that was the pleasant stuff.

# Great band...
I screwed up half the sat that night for them though...I was REALLY drunk...and felt sick after looking at the shit Neil had just had in a bucket and placed in the middle of the stage while Captain Everything were playing...

# The song itself
doesn't soudn weird, but the lyrics are odd.
It's about someone getting harrassed by some anonymous person who keeps sending them postcards with chimps on them

# Yeah, that's the same with Lightyear
"These eyes are burning through the walls (wings are like, wings like a shield of steal)
Deflecting any death rays from a girl,
Purple Y-fronts without the hole, what do I do when I need to go?"

If that's not disturblingly mental, what is?

# is that reference to the cartoon character batfink?
(I helped save b3ta! PMGT -Bacon., Mon 1 Sep 2003, 1:14, archived)
# Probably!
infact, most likely!

they reference alot of old stuff in songs...like Street Fighter 2!

"Smile, I said smile. In Street Fighter 2 that would be a special move against Guile"

# only ska can get away with lyrics like that.
I mean, "kicking pigeons"???


fucking great song.

# Ska is
a reason to be stupid with your lyrics I think:)
(I helped save b3ta! AzToTheRescue The arsehole formally known as Az The S slur, Mon 1 Sep 2003, 1:23, archived)
# It certainly is
but in a why that implies some kind of genius!
I mean, batfink reference, what more do you want!

# Woo!
I love BNL!
I always thought 'Paperback Writer' was a weird
subject for a song.. Seems as though it should
be a film soundtrack or summat..
