my fave rock band in world.. so glad they are back togethe....r.see alot of Jeff these days thank God hes become an Aussie yeh...these clipsfrom much music are wonderful thankies.
LOVE the Tea Party! They are our hometown boys - shout out to Windsor! Can't wait to see them on July 29 at Caesars Windsor!!!! Anyone remember when they used to play the Pterodactyl Lounge?? Yes, I'm that old :/
I completely agree. There are so many elements to this video that make it fantastic - particularly the ones you mentioned. I also think the set and lighting both deserve a mention though.
He also said he'll do a reunion with them when Hell freezes over!!! If it does happen it will be a very long time from now. That is from an interview with Jeff
They weren't getting high on tea, but 'tea parties' were indeed what the beatnik get-togethers were called." They had decided to name their new group The Tea Party after the infamous hash sessions of famous Beat generation poets Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac and William Burroughs.[1]" It's not 'gay' if you're versed in some of their philosophy. If not, then I've got no problem with people not enjoying their music because of their name. There's more meaning in their name than most bands.
poemsin Alot of songs are about break-ups and I took it as his woman made a choice of leaving him and he thought it was a bad decision (or maybe its about someone else s relationship). You wanted this So sad to see The sweet decay Of ecstasy And you want it all A frozen sun, Will guide you there As shadows hide The deep despair I'll give you something more And you'll fade away One last kiss before You fade away. So sleep tonight, In idle dreams The pain will drown, Your silent screams And you want it all I'll give you something more And you'll fade away One last kiss before You fade away Lives you once adored will fade away Lies you can't ignore You soon repay As you fade away
I agree Much has really gone down hill since the late nineties. VJ's don't seem too intelligent or informed about anything other than the most recent Britney scandal, music videos are repeats of popular hits. I miss the grungy, experimental Much music of the past. =P
One of my favorites of the band. Check out this awsome acoustic cover by "The Morrisons" with percussion and violin: th-cam.com/video/FxpmS6RG7Dw/w-d-xo.html. Hope you like it too!
It's not their fault that people are too stupid to know about The Beat Generation and gentlemen like Jack Kerouac, Allan Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs, etc. Their 'tea parties', where they would spend all night getting high and discuss anything and everything under the sun is what they are named after. Sorry, but that's brilliant. Are 'Tool' or 'Staind' better names?
'The Party' would have been fine if they had been interested in attracting frat boys and sorority girls as fans. Opinion is subjective though. There's a boatload of people out there who think Led Zeppelin was a stupid name as well.

most criminally overlooked band is more like it!!!!!!
Probably their best song. So sad that they did not make it in the states. I wish they would get back together & give it another shot.
I love this performance. Thanks so much for putting it up. =)

You wanted this
So sad to see
The sweet decay
Of ecstasy
And you want it all
A frozen sun,
Will guide you there
As shadows hide
The deep despair
I'll give you something more
And you'll fade away
One last kiss before
You fade away.
So sleep tonight,
In idle dreams
The pain will drown,
Your silent screams
And you want it all
I'll give you something more
And you'll fade away
One last kiss before
You fade away
Lives you once adored
will fade away
Lies you can't ignore
You soon repay
As you fade away
great tune, it's too bad they weren't very successful
