I believe it's an original first played for an audience at the Cafe du Nord show in San Francisco March of this year.

yeah, it's a fucking awesome song. Along with Rabbit Hole and the "water song" the future looks bright.

I think the next best Frank CD will be the second solo one after the Pixies break up again. Those ones are usually really good! Wait, well, hopefully there won't be another post divorce record, but those are good too. And just wait when he goes back to 2 track- the second one of those usually kicks masterpiece ass. Wait, no. They're all pretty good. Forget it...

You're confusing Frank with Blink 182, who did cover the Jan & Dean song.

Check out my "Rabbit Hole" thread for my non-interesting thoughts on the awesomeness of that song, Mr. BDH.

The Water is awesome! It reminds me of St. Francis Dam Disaster, sort of. I'd have to look at the lyrics to compare.

btw, is anyone writing down the lyrics to these songs, 'cause I could try by watching the videos. I've always wanted to give the lyrics for an FB song.

Is it just me or is this song about heroin? I could be taking the lyrics to literally ie "maybe i'll kick it". Regardless it's a beautiful song.

maybe I'll kick it
though it's so sweet, honey
been up on the mountain
with nothing to eat

oh maybe i'll kick it
then i will be free darlin
i got me a ticket
it mean's nothing to me

the boy's so lonely
the nights so cold
everything is so (meek?)
it's getting so old

or maybe i'll kick it
then i'll be free darlin
i got me a ticket
mean's nothing to me

oh its so sweet

i've seen the lights on the valley
from dead man's curve
down lover's alley
i never lost my nerve
and when the day is born
i see the smoke on the town
and my ???
is when i'm going down

oh maybe I'll kick it
though it's so sweet, honey
been up on the mountain
with nothing to eat

oh maybe i'll kick it
then i'll be free darlin
got me a ticket
mean's nothing to me

I just heard it. It's awesome! Are these new songs? They sound like they were around DITS, maybe.

btw, the ??? in the lyrics sounds like "herbivores" but that doesn't make any sense. Or something "remorse". That might be it.

awesome song... although it's not as good as it's counterpart - suffering.

As a side note - that tune has gotta start getting some props after he played it on the tour. I mean, COME ON!

It's hard to imagine what rythm they will put on it. It's quite a defy for a producer, good luck EDF !!!
It sounds like a WHO song, and the Who style is hard to arrange (remember the boring fake Keith Moon on Annoucement?)

Sorry pal but "boring" and "Announcement" don't belong in the same sentence.

Me too. This is a great song. It's my favourite out of the new ones (Water, Rabbit, etc...). His screaming is great!

I knew somebody from the cult of Announcement would appear there!
But that nevereding repetitive angry drum could be better isn't it? Keith had a free and crazy style, not a copy and paste kinda play.
Well anyway imagine the same ground breaking drums on Deadman's Curve all way long, it would be really boring. We'll see...

I've been playing it something like this, not sure how accurate it is though. Probably not very.

C          Am
maybe I'll kick it 
C               E            F
though it's so sweet, honey
                Am       F
been up on the mountain 
                Am
with nothing to eat



C                   (G#)  G
the boy's so lonely
                   (G#)  Am
the nights so cold
                        F  E
everything is so (meek?)
                 F
it's getting so old


The G# I play is just the bass note not the whole chord.

Oh and I play C as:

      -0-
      -1-
      -0-
      -2-
      -3-
      -3-

it's a shame this song isn't going to be recorded by the Catholics, still I think this has the potential to be Frank's best track ever. The first time I heard it I was absolutley floored (I can be heard very loudly yelling "YEAH" on Scruvs' now legendary Cafe Du Nord video). So angry.
