Brilliant song, not the rubbish that our kids have grown up with.

Remarkable parallel about a once mighty force in decline, having a dead-cat bounce.

Port Adelaide sing "Tear us apart" before a match. The MFC could serenade this.

To those who are genuinely hurt by this, toughen up. To those who fail to see the relevance, enjoy a masterpiece. To the few who can link it, well done, as you are smart and brave. Where is H, or Trav20, or Hannabal btw?

And maybe Roosy can walk out to this one....

I try an escape modern music for 2 minutes, and Stuie gives me this.

Thanks.


At the moment they are playing "tip toe through the tulips" before they run out.

Technically you are correct, but would you call the post-2000 release of "A little less conversation" by the King "modern"?

People like Orbison can make poo sound like strawberry jam; and you could probably say that for most of the baby boomer voices. Now you need to be naked and twirking for someone to listen to you.

Surprise, surprise.

I prefer the other way round to be honest. MJ sang "One" as good, if not better than Bono. What about Patti Smith in E-Bow the Letter? I am still floored.

Lol yeah that's my all time favourite song....

No one "listens" to modern music, you watch it. That's part of the problem.

Also, it's Cash covering a song in 2002 that was originally made in 94. Pretty modern all round really. Cash made a series of these albums in his last few years, all produced by the amazing Rick Rubin, they're more than worth a listen if you can track them down somewhere for your gramaphone ;)

Love your work stuey.

Just show me how my Dr.Ore Beats connect to the old 78's and I will.

Dr. Ore? Is he a wife-basher with a PhD?


A quick look through my stash of depressing or angry songs, looking for nominations.

Bob Dylan, Not Dark Yet

Faith No More, Last Cup of Sorrow

Aimee Mann - Wise up

Actually, Last Cup of Sorrow through stadium speakers could be brutally satisfying.

Although the ambiguity about it being either 'make a new start' or 'kill yourself' could be a problem. Or, ideal.

Geez, it's growing on me.

I'm guessing you mean Dr Dre...? haha

Funnily enough, the guy who produced those Johnny Cash albums also is a massive player in Dr Dre's genre as well. Small world.

didn't do much for me

s'pose the god botherers like it

Yeah we all know how much those god botherers like nine inch nails... pun?


The song 'hurt' originally came from an album called 'the downward spiral' so yeah,it's appropriate for MFC.

interesting thoughts TGR

the deeper meaning ???????

 

I did have a chuckle when Carlton played Phil Collins "In the Air Tonight" before their theme song as they ran out yesterday. I guess it worked for them!

"It's not Dark yet...But it's gettin' there.."

perfect od....... but what about Friday night footy, or even Friday the 13th knight....

out on the 'G'rassy nkoll, on a windswept night, ok, a dark knight SWYL..... before the lights come up, & our stars, start shining

just the thing to ode those fiercely hungry Mcc patrons before the slaughter

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
