We really don’t want to splutter out, do we?

I think I need some of that novocaine for the soul. I sometimes think I’m beginning to sputter!!

Living by numbers with the great undead.

Such an incredible emotionally-charged album.

I’m not sure what contemporary means. In my book it is people who are still performing and recording at this moment in time – not just the new arrivals on the scene. But I suppose most people think of modern as being the music of newcomers.

With my definition the Stones, Who, Billy Bragg and Elvis Costello are still part of the modern scene.

Who cares. When it’s good it’s good. The Eels are great: I need a bit of novocaine for my soul the mess these Tories and Trump have made!!

Love this.

I find with most music I either take to it straight away or I don’t get into it at all. I loved the Eels the first time I heard them. This will be a great album to play today.

Today’s Music to keep me SANE in Isolation – The Eels.

I was introduced to the Eels at the time when Novocaine For the Soul came out. It knocked me out.

I have subsequently bought most of their albums and have been impressed with it all.

So today I’m playing the Eels all day while I decorate!

 

The Eels – Novocaine for the soul – lyrics about the uncaring, shallow society we are building.

The pointless, greedy, uncaring society we are creating takes its toll on sensitive people. We seem to have areas of helpless futility. We seem to have many people in distress. If you do not want to play the game, seek wealth as a goal, and look to be a big wheel, you are there to be trodden down and spat upon.

Mark Everett sums it up for me in this great song. Our society is busy destroying the world for profit, steamrollering over people and nature, and not giving two hoots.

I want a more intelligence, caring culture! I want some society that cares for people and nature and wants to make the world more beautiful. I want a world that feeds the soul!

“Novocaine For The Soul”

Life is hard
And so am i
You’d better give me something
So i don’t die

Novocaine for the soul
Before i sputter out

Life is white
And i am black
Jesus and his lawyer
Are coming back
Oh my darling
Will you be here
Before i sputter out

Guess whose living here
With the great undead
This paint-by-numbers life
Is fucking with my head
Once again

Life is good
And i feel great
’cause mother says i was
A great mistake

Novocaine for the soul
You’d better give me something
To fill the hole
Before i sputter out
