![]() Martinis & Bikinis (1994) [ larger cover art ] |
the camera angles and the name campaigns
the stare cuts and the latest extremes
the way we sell ourselves they way we spend our greed
how long it takes to hear our dreams
circle of change the world around you
the same changes
hold on to the voice inside you
the same changes
the borders and the flags how far our guns can shoot
fascist slogans and the movie of the week
popular opinion cars that drive you mad
what they pay assassins and a lucky streak
circle of change the world around you
the same changes
hold on to the voice inside you
the same changes
(hold on to your voice)
(hold on to your voice)
how much time is wasted how much time is left
what to censor and what to read
how hot the sun burns what does love require
how we run from the things we need
circle of change the world around you
the same changes
hold on to the voice inside you
the same changes
circle of change the world around you
the same changes
hold on to the voice inside you
the same changes
(the same changes)
(the same changes)

| igor (Seattle, WA) | Posted: May 21, 2013 - 11:21 Here is the right wikipedia link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Phillips_(musician) |
| daedalus | Posted: Mar 23, 2013 - 01:04 Decent, but guitar intro sound and riff is ripped off straight from the Yardbirds! |
| Minimally | Posted: Mar 19, 2013 - 16:58 I've been waiting to hear this song again for a while. I forgot what song it was but it was in my head and I couldn't find it. |
| Phlegmaticman (270 miles south of Paradise, CA) | Posted: Jan 11, 2013 - 11:03 She's good. |
| dew34 (Wisconsin-quite woodsy) | Posted: Dec 15, 2012 - 15:17 Been a big Sam Phillips fan for many years-echo great production and songwriting plus her distinctive vocal apparatus! |

| BKardon (Louisville, CO) | Posted: Aug 11, 2012 - 21:07 This is a top notch album from start to finish. Great production, songwriting, etc... |

| rushfan | Posted: Jul 11, 2012 - 10:31 Agree w the Fleetwood Mac comments. I've heard this song here several times (apparently without looking at the artist info), and always thought it was Fleetwood Mac... That said, I like this song a lot. |
| Giselle62 (many bear, big rock, estuary California) | Posted: Jul 06, 2012 - 21:12 I always want to turn it up. Love this album. |
| gypsyman (just passing through....) | Posted: Jun 09, 2012 - 18:03 Still Sweet !! ![]() |
| Carl (The Summit City) | Posted: Jun 02, 2012 - 21:20 There's not much Sam Phillips can do that I wouldn't like, I'm convinced! |

| gemtag (Texas) | Posted: Dec 29, 2011 - 13:02 Ms Phillips sounds fantastic. She has many hits in my book. |

I wasn't aware Sam Phillips had any hits. I think of her as a consistently interesting and enjoyable artist, but not a hit-maker. |

| d-don (Oregon) | Posted: Oct 03, 2011 - 11:18 I hear a Roger McGuinn-like guitar on this. |

| SinisterDexter | Posted: May 30, 2011 - 14:59 One of my favorite album covers. |
| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: Feb 25, 2011 - 00:17 I really love this hotter, more rock-oriented side of her music. She can kick out the jams - just wish she'd do it more often! |

| Jelani (Home of the freak, land of the vague) | Posted: Nov 22, 2010 - 16:22 I love this song. Regardless of my previous comment. |
| Randomax (Wimberley, TX) | Posted: Sep 20, 2010 - 07:20 I love this CD and actually OWN it......what a writer! |
| ziakut (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Jul 14, 2010 - 19:42 Really like the harmonies and the grooving bass line is killer. Nice hook and feel. The cover lends itself to more trouble than I care to think of....nice art. |

| Giselle62 (many bear, big rock, estuary California) | Posted: May 15, 2010 - 16:47 Still liking it—-"Hold onto the voice inside you..." |

| westslope (BC coast) | Posted: May 07, 2010 - 19:09 The voice works for me. It has a rich, sensuous quality. |
| Jelani (Home of the freak, land of the vague) | Posted: Mar 13, 2010 - 07:22 I think it would be improved by a "fuller", less shrill voice. I still like it though. |

| jrenfro (Saint Charles, Missouri) | Posted: Dec 05, 2009 - 15:19 More from this album/artist please. I've never gotten tired of this album, especially this song. |
| westslope (BC coast) | Posted: Dec 05, 2009 - 13:12 LOL!
This is a great tune. |
| EssexTex (Gitche Gumee) | Posted: Dec 01, 2009 - 03:49 Yeah...the Bee Gee's rock |

| alanthecowboy (Lakefield) | Posted: Aug 28, 2009 - 16:42 RobRyan wrote: I'm kind of tired of this whole "Heart Full of Soul" complaint. It's only the opening riff, which lasts, what, 10 seconds? The body of the song is nothing like Heart Full of Soul (a song I also like). First of all, I don't care about the Heart full of soul riff, even though it's pretty obvious. However, I need to point out that it carries on through all the choruses and through the 'soli' section as well. |
