"Search and Destroy" 2003-09-21 - 4:09 a.m. older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj well, I suppose I'm feeling better tonight sorry, I'm a little distracted, I'm watching Velvet Goldmine I despise watching movies for the first time on TV, especially good movies but sometimes you take what you can get anyway this movie makes me want to play music and speaking of which, I called Clinton today; and actually got ahold of him and he said he does want to start a band! HU-fucking-ZZAH!!! finally, I will take part in the production of music once again I just hope we get far enough to play live this time on a related note: I wrote the best song I've ever written today it's just the guitar melody; so I can't post it here, and it's as-of-yet-untitled but it's fantastic I wish so bad I could record it and post it in here it sounds like something you'd hear Tool or A Perfect Circle playing; not something some dirty little teenager wrote in his room at 2 in the morning I'm so proud of it I was going through my old notebooks and re-writing old guitar melodies I'd written, without the detriment of crap-tacular lyrics and I found this brilliant melody I'd written but hadn't finished it didn't have lyrics or even an order, just a collection of riffs but it was great, I don't know why I never did anything with it so I re-wrote it into something I'm so proud of I can't shut up about it I'm not lying when I say I'm my own toughest critic I hate myself and pretty much everything I create but this is good my songwriting [/re-writing] has been getting better and better and if this is what I've got now, I can't wait to see what I'll come up with later I hate to sound like I'm tooting my own horn here or trying to make myself look cool to my readers (all 2 and a half of them) but I just impressed the crap out of myself with this song I can't believe that I wrote something so good it's not a landmark song I'm not saying it's going to be the next Stairway to Heaven or anything it's not going to be something people are talking about for years to come but it's a good song a really good song and I wrote it sorry I wouldn't be going on so long about it if I were paying attention but I'm looking at the tv most of the time I'm typing this I apologize and Evan was right, by the way, Ewan McGregor does do an amazing Kurt Cobain impression on a completely un-related note: I'm falling in love with the Stooges I've only heard a few of their songs, but none of htem sound the same and they all sound awesome particularly Search and Destroy which I know I've heard somewhere and I don't know where anyway, this entry is long and rambling and crappy enough; so I'll just cut it Sweet Dreams I'm a street walking cheater with a hand full of napalm I'm a runaway son of a nuclear A-bomb I am the world's forgotten boy The one who searches and destroys Honey gotta help me please Somebody gotta save my soul Baby, detonate for me Look out honey, 'cause mutant technology Ain't got time to make no apology Solar radiation in the dead of night Love in the middle of a fire fight Honey gotta strike a plan Somebody gotta save my soul Baby, tell em, take my mind I'm the world's forgotten boy The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy And honey I'm the world's forgotten boy The one who's searchin' only to destroy Forgotten boy, forgotten boy Forgotten boy said hey forgotten boy -Search and Destroy Iggy + the Stooges � � |
