![]() Midnight Vultures (1999) [ larger cover art ] |
I'm mixing business with leather
Christmas with Heather
Freaks flock together
And make all the b-boys scream
All right
Turn it up now
All right
Turn it up now
Word up to the manthing
She's always cold lamping
Visine at the canteen
I just wanna watch you dance
Do you wanna ride on the Baltic Sea
I'll be your mistress C.O.D.
I'll comb your hair
Re-write your diary
Pour champagne on a honey bee
She can really do me
She can look right through me
And make all the b-boys scream
I'm mixing fitness with leather
Homework with Heather
Freaks flock together
And make all the lesbians scream
All right
Turn it up now
All right
Turn it up now
Christmas with Heather
Freaks flock together
And make all the b-boys scream
All right
Turn it up now
All right
Turn it up now
Word up to the manthing
She's always cold lamping
Visine at the canteen
I just wanna watch you dance
Do you wanna ride on the Baltic Sea
I'll be your mistress C.O.D.
I'll comb your hair
Re-write your diary
Pour champagne on a honey bee
She can really do me
She can look right through me
And make all the b-boys scream
I'm mixing fitness with leather
Homework with Heather
Freaks flock together
And make all the lesbians scream
All right
Turn it up now
All right
Turn it up now
| Maggle_Bish (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Jan 10, 2013 - 07:51 The song isn't that bad, but what the HELL is going on at the end?! It's just a bunch of racket and my ears don't like it. |

Same here—sounds better to call it funk than disco but we all know what's going on here. I guess I didn't play it loud before but having done so I had to knock it down a few notches—it's now on my list of songs that I wouldn't miss much if I never heard it again.:) |

| smackiepipe (Western North Carolina) | Posted: Dec 28, 2011 - 08:14 I checked in first to see if this was some wild, unheard of World Party cut. Always surprised when I find out it's Beck, as I never listened to him much upon his arrival. |

| old_shep | Posted: Jan 15, 2011 - 15:43 I haven't heard much Beck stuff, but this guy is a frigg'n musical genius. His musical style varies, but for some reason I can usually identify him right away, it just grabs me .... |

I read somewhere that that was what it's supposed to be, actually. |

Completely disagree. I admit that's an album for certain moods, but even in uptimes it's enjoyable to listen to. Sea Change was transcendent for Beck...you can't lessen it just because it captures a sadder time in his life. This, on the other hand, is just good, nothing more. |
