I'm Going Down
We sit in the car outside your house
I can feel the heat coming 'round
I go to put my arm around you and
you give me a look like I'm way out of bounds
you let out one of your bored sighs
Well lately, when I look into your eyes
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
We get dressed up and we go out baby
out baby for the night
We come home early burning, burning,
burning in some fire fight
I'm sick and tired of your setting me up
setting me up just to knock-a, knock-a,
knock-a me down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I pull you close but when we kiss
I can feel a doubt
I remember back when we started
My kisses used to turn you inside out
I used to drive you to work in the moring
Friday night I'd drive you all around
You used to love to drive me wild
But lately girl you get your kicks from just
driving me down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
Breathless
Now if you love me baby, please don’t tease
If I can hold you then let me squeeze
My heart goes 'round and 'round
My love comes tumbling down
You... leave me
(Oh, sorry I’m just..)
I shake all over and you know why
I’m sure it’s love and that’s no lie
And when you call my name
I burn like wood inflamed
You... leave me
Breathless
Oh baby, hmm crazy,
You're much too much
I can’t love you enough
It’s alright, you hold me tight
When you love me you love me right
Come on baby now don’t be shy
This love was meant for you and I
Wind, rain, sleet or snow
I will be wherever you go
You... leave me
Breathless |

OK, will try to get to this today but keep it coming even if I don't. I've got to start working on the skin for that beast (i.e. song db interface).

Here's my take on Big Bang Theory...still incomplete, though.
Mike Watt takes a step
While the news travel by
Time for further cigarette
Ashes tumble
Can't remember what was said
I just got trouble
Never bothered to know
The end of the ... road/rope?
And we all looked down
Before we look around
At the big bang theory
The big bang theory
even pigs aspire
to break the ...
in the big bang theory
big bang theory
Mr. Watt will comb the news
and will determine ... decision
takin' stock in what's approved
the man of rock now has a mission
the course of power ... the truth
when's there's nothing to show
no dice to roll
and we all go down
no matter who's around
in the big bang theory
wow!
even pigs transpire
to break the ... of time
in the big bang theory |

You guys are awesome!
I hope Dean doesn't mind me stepping in here for a second just to draw your attention to what is going on with the song database. Dean has been working extremely hard on making this beast look good and I have to say it is looking mighty fine. As Dean states in the suggestion box thread the changes he's showing are a work in progress and it is notable that there are a fair few images missing from what will eventually be the new look DB.
If anyone has a copy of the covers for the following or can scan them to send to Dean or post here or whatever is easiest it would be very much appreciated. the list (to save you from looking) is as follows:
albums - got them all
compilations - got them all
promos
- Calistan
- (I Want To Live On An) Abstract Plain
- Teenager Of The Year (Promo)
- L'Interview
- I Don't Want To Hurt You
- All My Ghosts
- Frank Black & The Catholics
- Velvety
- Show Me Your Tears
singles/EPs
- Frank Black (Hello Recording Club)
- Freedom Rock
- Men In Black
- You Ain't Me
- The Marsist
- I Don't Want To Hurt You (Every Single Time)
- I Want Rock & Roll
- Nadine
----
also Is This Link Any Help
----
This is what we have missing so can anyone help with these? |

Thanks, Tre. Glad I can help out is all, I've been wanting this for a long time.
I know some auction-winners have copies of the CV Nadine EP, two MIB (singles? promos?), and the Hello Recording Club if it's possible for you to find yourself a scanner. 300x300 is preferable minimum size, the thumbs are half that, but I can make them myself.
I have a few questions:
1) Is this the Cooking Vinyl Nadine EP? I thought that one was green?
http://www.frankblack.net/songs/images/singles/nadine-cv.jpg
2) Was there an I Gotta Move Single/EP? I have this:
http://frankblack.net/songs/images/singles/igottamove.jpg
3) Add All My Ghosts EP. Not a question just a note for myself (that link helped, thanks Tre)
4) Which MIB is this?

Talking of "Le Cigare Volant", those lyrics are wrong :
He wondered was he hate or someone that loved us
In the years since we have grown up to know this
Correct lyrics :
We wondered was he hate or someone that loved us
In the years since we have thought often of this |

Fix'ed.
Another thing to notice is that a lot of the promos in particular don't have release dates or tracklists associated. So anyone with any info there...

OK, in the db. I don't have tracklists for a few of those, but I'm doing that stuff tomorrow. I've had enough for one weekend. :)
Thanks for all the help and keep 'em coming, db is looking better than it ever has!

Just so you know, Run (from Gordon Gano's 'Hitting the Ground' album) is missing from the Song Db.
quote:
"It's so great and done with such an intensity," Gano says, "but there was a game plan. He had this concept that he would keep recording it and on each pass he would take up the intensity level." The take they ended up with is definitely well-past eleven.
http://www.atomicduster.com/interviews/gordon_gano/
AD: On your excellent “Hitting The Ground” album, you have worked with a glut of outstanding performers that would make other artists green with envy. If you had to pick one standout track, which would it be and why? Also, did you give each artist a guideline for how you wanted the tracks to come out, or is it totally their own interpretation?
GG: Thank you for enjoying ‘Hitting The Ground’. There isn’t one track that’s most special to me. I could make an argument for each one. For example ‘Run’. When I heard Frank Black sing this I thought, and still do, that this is one of my favourite lead vocals of all time. With some artists we discussed how to approach the song and with others nothing was discussed except here’s the song and do you want to do it. Anyone that likes any of these artists I believe will really like what they do on this record. In sports lingo: they are all “on top of their game” or “in the zone”.

Visit the Song DB Version 3 (Beta):
http://www.frankblack.net/songs/db3beta.asp
If you see one missing, please send me a copy. If you are interested in looking through to make sure the proper cover is associated with the correct release, then that certainly helps us be a complete resource. For example, European and North American cover art is sometimes different for the same album. We want both.
I'm also looking to get lyrics to all the songs we have in there, and there [were] a surprising amount missing. I'm trying to do one a day, and if even a few of you could help with that, they'd all have lyrics in no time. :)
And of course, if there are any albums, eps, songs, etc missing, please let it be known. Thanks!

The IDWTHY single exists in 3 versions at least, which were compiled in a box-set. Two of them feature live tracks, the third one includes "The Marsist", "Better Things" and "You Ain't Me" (live). I seem to know there is a 4th version but I'm not sure.

Thanks HS. This one actually looks like a mix of the others. Maybe I'm wrong but I'm almost sure there's a 5th version...

I tried to read the whole thread but it's a bit of a mess. Just a couple of thoughts that came to my mind:
* I think the 2 Nadine EPs should be listed separately. They weren't released at the same time, by different record labels, and they have completely different tracklistings and artwork.
* The Honeycomb promo CD is lacking. I saw it last week at a record store, I could buy it and scan the cover (which is identical to the official release btw).
* I didn't understand if you're planning to add to the db the records where Frank appears (ie tribute albums, collaborations, compilations...). I think it definitely needs to be there. I see the songs are there but not the records they come from. For instance the CV sampler with the acoustic End Of Miles appears nowhere.
* Maybe we could also list the compilations that have a FB song on them, and mention if they're album versions or not. The 12" EP issued recently by SpinArt that includes I'm Going Down could fit in there.
* The 12" version of the Peel Sessions EP isn't there. I have it but I don't know how I could scan a 12". I could give you the cat # and label at least.
* Finally, it's useless really but it'd be nice if we could list all the label, cat # and date of the different releases. Isn't there for instance a japanese edition of DiTS with an extra song? It doesn't seem to be there.
Sorry if I'm criticizing and not really helping. You've done an awesome work.
