Absolutely wonderful movie... And this song fits it perfectly. I can probably guarantee that anyone leaving negative comments about this song will hate the movie even more :) Nope. Great flick. This song is still another matter.... |
| schmoooz (Tampa, FL) | Posted: Feb 15, 2005 - 20:06 Far, far, far away from the Lips I saw at the Cameo Theater in 1988 as they opened for 7 Seconds. Long live Punk! |
| mem_313 (directly under the beacon of shame!) | Posted: Jan 17, 2005 - 08:34 muddy and poor. Is this a remake? dodododododdoododo |
| mrselfdestruct (Edmonton, AB) | Posted: Jan 14, 2005 - 09:35 God, this song should be about a million times better than it is. I think I'm starting to hate it. |

problem is, they sound like crap together. You got that right, blech! |
| LLMikeJ | Posted: Nov 16, 2004 - 07:48 hmm... two bands i like get together and achieve something less than synergy. still pretty good, but not quite what I had hoped.  |
| Tux (The Netherlands) | Posted: Nov 16, 2004 - 07:42 Scheisse. My filter only mutes "Chemical Brothers", not "Chemical Bros." Now fixed. |
| Hob (Cheltenham, UK) | Posted: Nov 16, 2004 - 07:42 Something about it makes me think of Talking heads... |
| rah | Posted: Nov 04, 2004 - 11:35 i am at the point of saying that if this song is going to continue to be played, i may have to find a different radio station to listen to. |
| aurora1957 | Posted: Nov 01, 2004 - 13:26 
play more! |
| ursus88 (MA) | Posted: Nov 01, 2004 - 13:22 Gargling with salt water will help that throat ... maybe. Won't do a thing for being totally off key, however. |
| timandjuliet (Colorado, USA) | Posted: Nov 01, 2004 - 13:20 You may not have meant to hurt me, but you sure did. This sucks. |
| smilestoomuch | Posted: Nov 01, 2004 - 13:19 I have to immediately mute this song. Maybe it would be ok if it lasted say, 3 min. Then his cracked vocals might actually be construed as cool and the synth wouldn't make me want to smash my head against my desk. |

| ad4tise (Destin, Florida) | Posted: Sep 09, 2004 - 14:23 This song sounds like they have injested too many chemicals before they recorded. |
| RichardPrins (Ω³) | Posted: Sep 09, 2004 - 14:20 More aerobics? |

I would like to have a chemical collaboration with Beth Orton |

| laozilover (Left of Chicago & up) | Posted: Jul 25, 2004 - 07:31 Have to give this one an "8" - Most Excellent - I always perk up and pay attention when it comes on.  I vote for hearing it more often! |

Thats fine Yep , the music is some take on E and the B-men's "Promise" . They followed it just now with " Lips Like Sugar" ; no doubt a bit of the ol' tounge in cheek. hehe |
| BagelBoy (Sylva, NC) | Posted: Jun 01, 2004 - 12:01 I haven't heard the Lips since HS. I think the song was 'She don't like Jelly'. Very strange group... |

Thats fine Spot On. |
| MikeWC | Posted: May 29, 2004 - 19:54 I like it more everytime I hear it. Long live the Lips. |
| Darkmatter (Sweden) | Posted: May 19, 2004 - 05:52 This sure is a fun song, it makes me smile so it must be good. The lyrics sure are interesting, as always when it comes to the Flaming Lips: Wayne Coyne wrote: And I said
âHelp me lordâ I found myself in some kind of hell But I didnât believe in a heaven and hell World in opposites kind of reality And I gained control of myself And I decided to press on Me neither, Wayne. :) |
| cataloger (Fayettnam, AR) | Posted: May 16, 2004 - 15:16 I like it and I am not ashamed |

Yeah, hey....that's kind of a good thing though.... :D |

| fluorophore (Alexandria, VA) | Posted: Mar 13, 2004 - 22:24 dang wrote: I agree. I thought this was a cover of "Where the Streets Have No Name" when it came on. Total rip-job in my opinion. Practically the same song. If I were Bono, I'd be dialing my lawyer. |
| GordianKnot | Posted: Mar 13, 2004 - 22:23 Please forgive me.......I never meant to make your ears bleed by programming this song. |

Ya it was cool until it started to sound like the Flaming Lips ;-) |
| sergeant_x (Lawrence KS) | Posted: Feb 22, 2004 - 01:33 The Flaming Chemicals echo Echo. I like it. |
| TheLoneIguana (Fresno, CA) | Posted: Feb 11, 2004 - 09:04 "I found myself in some kinda hell" Just what I was thinking.  |

Absolutely wonderful movie... And this song fits it perfectly. :) :iamwith: 
It does have that background beat like B.B.  and I couldn't agree more about the movie itself.. if you have the chance check out the DVD which *finally* came out and includes an alternate opening with Jamie Lee Curtis (of all people) as the young Buckaroo's Mother!! |

| redeyespy (W.P.B., FL) | Posted: Dec 16, 2003 - 15:51 Not a happy collaboration. See also the disastrous Beck/Air combo "The Vagabond." |
| TreborG2 (VA - somewhere east of paradise) | Posted: Dec 06, 2003 - 10:24 Loving the music of the Chemical Brothers.. takes some a bit.. takes others less.. one of my favorite sites to visit once in a while is http://www.sputnik7.com where you can see videos.. and the videos for the chemical bros are just out there!!! ... one called Star Guitar... it has a looping video to match beats with the song.. |
| alanb (Vancouver) | Posted: Dec 02, 2003 - 23:06 yeah, yeah, kinda like a pale, quavering, lame techno imitation of "Spill the Wine"... Needs a sexy latina lapsing into some kind of glossilalia as in the abovementioned tune. |
| cycleman (Redding, Connecticut) | Posted: Nov 29, 2003 - 10:52 Kind of an aural updated...."Spill the Wine" by Eric Burdon in a really cool channeling....liked it the first time I heard it and like it more the second.. |
| mc_hammer | Posted: Nov 22, 2003 - 15:52 excellent song. really impressed to hear rp playing the chemical bros. |
| mouse (Austin, TX) | Posted: Nov 20, 2003 - 19:29 Ack -- whatever happened to singers actually being able to sing? This guy sounds like his lips are, in fact, flaming. Or at least cracked and chapped. Please, make it stop!! |
| eric | Posted: Nov 20, 2003 - 19:27 I kinda liked this until those horrible, whiny vocals kicked in toward the end. |

Try listening to Zooropa then listen to this song. my hearing is extremely accute - and i don't hear bono in this at all. bono can hit a note. this guy wavers too much. he should not be touching high notes - or a microphone. this song would be so cool without the vocals. |
| jeffro (Celebration, FL) | Posted: Nov 12, 2003 - 08:31 The title should be suffixed with "(w/ U2's Bono Vox)" because that's what it sounds like :D/ |
| TheWizardOfUhs (Hyannisport, MA) | Posted: Nov 12, 2003 - 08:30 Pretty good stuff, the end could be better but the overall song reminds me a bit of Eric Burden's Spill the Wine - "this really blew my mind, the fact that me, an overfed, long haired leaping gnome, would be the star of a Hollywood movie"......... |
