Let us not judge a book by it's cover. Stuart looks like he would be the teacher's pet in assembly choir or chess club but little do they know the true Murdoch in all his gown and glory, a genuis lyricist, appealing to all the misfits of society and the least underrated of all.

@@leonardolopez8719 estoy de acuerdo tengo de Dylan desde el primer disco del 62 hasta Slow train coming del 79 todos en vinilo contando los dobles con de Band el directo y el de estudio pero este grupo se asemeja mucho al escoces sobre todo en las voces por eso mencione a Donovan. Saludos desde Alicante.
@@miguelangelcalvobordera7807 Sí, es una mezcla de Donovan, los Kinks , Syd barret y la Velvet Underground. y a mi me gustan por eso, por recuperar una tradiciòn folky y britanica en una época como los 90's sobrevalorada por muchos pero que para mi fue una tortura musicalmente. Descubrir a esta banda fue una gloria para mi., Después es subjetivo, yo amo a Donovan pero a mi Belle & Sebastian me gusta más..
@@leonardolopez8719los Kinks me encantan desde el primer disco del 64 hasta finales de los 70s menos el Preservation Act 2 que es muy malo y de la Velvet tengo todos sus discos de Lou Reed me encantan Transformer, Berlin, Rock N roll Animal que son canciones de la Velvet tocadas en vivo, Coney Island Baby y el New York todos estos para mi sus mejores discos.
@@miguelangelcalvobordera7807 Bueno , es como te digo , en el arte hay un alto porcentaje de subjetividad.; a mi Preservation ,tanto el acto I y el II , me parecen extraordinarios, quizá la mejor opera-rock , tanto musical como narrativamente me parece muy superior a otras que tienen mas prensa. El disco de los kinks que no me gusta es Soap opera, y a partir de sleepwalker ya no me gustan tanto. Lou Reed es difícil que tenga discos malos.
As melodias são muito lindas.
Love this so much it HURTS ME
The intro reminds me of the Beatles
looks like ''Things we said today'' intro
We're the younger generation, we grew up fast
All the others did drugs
They're taking it out on us!
Seeing them live in 2021.... can't wait. I'm convinced B&S are the greatest band in existence currently!
I see them in San Francisco 2004 I think, beautiful band, so unheard of in my day of listening
I remember when John peel first played this band, way back in early 90s. I fell in love with them, such beautiful songs ❤️❤️❤️
My favourite from that album
in 2020 i am a bit high, listening to this wondeful album, and in 2020 i feel this song is like a conversation with me and morrissey today hahaha
fallin fallin fallin fallin fallin falliiiiin
since the Smiths and The felt ,I,ve never heard something than good,amazing,masterpiece
The Felt?? lol

Me and the Major could become close friends because we
Get on the same train and he wants to talk to me
Me and the Major could become close friends because we
Get on the same train and he wants to talk
But there is too much history, too much biography between us
Me and the Major don't see eye to eye on a
Number of things, he'll take a guy like me and then
Me and the Major don't see eye to eye on a
Number of things, he'll take a guy like me
And put him in the army
Because the Queen's own army makes a man of you
But he doesn't understand and he doesn't try
He knows there's something missing and he knows it's you and I
We're the younger generation, we grew up fast
All the others did drugs
They're taking it out on us
They're taking it out on us
They're taking it out on us
Me and the Major are from different worlds, but if
I get stuck in the lift it's always with a toff
Me and the Major are from different worlds, but if
I get stuck in the lift it's always with a man
Of noble standing who looks down on me like I was never born
I think the Major's going quite insane, he goes
Along the pavement and comes back again, oh yeah
I think the Major's going quite insane, he goes
Along the pavement and comes back again
Like he is on parade, and he is on parade
At least he thinks so
Now he is swapping his tent for a sheltered home
He doesn't have a family, he is living alone
He remembers all the punks and the hippies too
And he remembers Roxy Music in '72
He doesn't understand and he doesn't try
He knows there's something missing and he knows it's you and I
We're the younger generation, we grew up fast
All the others did drugs
They're taking it out on us
They're taking it out on us
They're taking it out on us
I want a dance, I want a drink of whisky so I
Forget the Major and go up the town, oh boy
I want a dance, I want a drink of whisky so I
Forget the Major and go up the town
Because the snow is falling
Yeah, the snow is falling
The snow is falling, falling, falling
Falling, falling, falling, falling
Cool happy song.
QUASE VACILEI COM MEU AMIGO VANDRO, SÓ ABRI A MUSICA AGORA MAS AE FUI FAZER EXAMES E DE MANHÃ TAVA FODA, MAS TAMO AE.
Perfeita mlk
Perfect album....this is the week link for me if I had to find one?...shows how good it is
i sometimes play phoenix's "1901" after this
because in all reality, there ain't that much history and biography between them! they just fold it!
"Now he is swapping his tent for a sheltered home
He doesn't have a family, and he is living alone
He remembers all the punks and the hippies too
And he remembers Roxy Music in seventy-two
He doesn't understand and he doesn't try"
one of my fav songs for sure, but that drum bit on 2:00 has to be my favourite part. and the harmonica solo at the end of course ! :D
I love the harmonica at the end, solo, beautiful ❤️
We're the younger generation, we grew up fast, all the others did drugs.
Grow up too fast and there's the drugs all over
and they're taking it out on us.....
"Me and the midget don't see eye to eye on a number of things"
Lol
NOOOO hahaha
This is the "Ok boomer" of gen X
And he remembers all the music in 1972
roxy music in 72
I could have sworn this song was called ''Me and the Midget'. I would have put money on it.
me too! ahahahah, this makes more sense for sure
Donovan's children.
I love this song so much! I've made a fan video of this song. Please check it out!
Lo siento chicos pero Donovan era mucho mejor que esto. Saludos y un buen dia a todos.
Ja ja , bueno, Donovan esta bueno pero Dylan es mejor😉
