I've somehow gone my whole life never having seen these performances, I can barely stand how amazing I think they are. Even taking a shitton of speed and belting them out while playing along shambolically on my bass I STILL can't get all that energy. I'm so grateful when things like this find me.
And it's insane too, I don't know how much I'm projecting, but having been on acid many, many, many times, but with The Passenger I think I can legitimately hear it in the sound. In my opinion, there is something VERY appealing about that slink, shaky, dripping wet sound when you're on acid specifically.
The Elevators had it too, and
The Cure did it well too in their early days.
Anyone else know what I'm talking about or is this a me thing? It could just be that I like it and I like acid, but it does seem to feature in a lot of more psychedelic songs.
Here are some more examples of kind of what I'm talking about.
Guess it's just one of those things
Honestly and I'm trailing here because I'm exceptionally spun, but isn't "just one of those things" also, ironically, just one of those things? Like what the fuck does that even
actually mean? I know, most native English speakers would, but I dunno. Anywaaay, bit more spirit lifting!
