Top Five Songs About the Music Industry


Miguel Sanchez

Recommended Posts

In no special order:

Not For You - Pearl Jam

Quote

All that's sacred, comes from youth
Dedications, naive and true
With no power, nothin' to do
I still remember, why don't you?
Don't you?

This is not for you
This is not for you
This is not for you
Oh, never was for you
f**k you

Slipshod - Enter Shikari

Quote

"Please don't raise your voice in here sir
This is a respected establishment,
I'm sure we can sort this out quietly no?"

Oh really? Well that's a great vase you got there,
It'd be a real shame if something happened to it...
Oopsie

Slipshod, kick it
Slip-
Slipshod, kick it
c**t

Slipshod, kick it
Uh

Congratulations - Jimmy Eat World

Quote

Imitate and water down
(Selection breathes on its own)
Until the crash I'll write it out
(Selection breathes on its own)
Make them open the request lines
Let selection kill the old
(Take off the radio)

But it takes more than one person
So everyone jump on
I'll miss you when you're just like them

Music Now - Frightened Rabbit

Quote

Music now is quite amazing
Musicians unite against the enemy
Writing is a job, making someone look dumb is not

So if this song falls on deaf ears
I'll lip-sync it so you can hear
I can hum for days, and weeks and years
I won't shout nor will I sleep

Afraid of Everyone - The National

Quote

Then I'm radio and then I'm television
I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone
Lay the young blue bodies, with the old red violets
I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone

With my kid on my shoulders I try
Not to hurt anybody I like
But I don't have the drugs to sort
I don't have the drugs to sort it out, sort it out

I defend my family with my orange umbrella
I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone
With my shiny new star spangled tennis shoes on
I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone
