Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted November 26, 2004 My drinking earlier this evening saw me both puke and lose my spectacles into the St. John's River (though not at the same time). Let's celebrate this occasion by listing songs about drinking. The more depressing, the better: The Replacements - Here Comes a Regular Good song, but it kinda makes me wanna kill myself.

Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye 0 Report post Posted November 26, 2004 Agalloch - A Desolation Song Here I sit at the fire Liquor's bitter flames warm my languid soul Here I drink alone and remember A graven life, the stain of her memory In this cup, love's poison For love is the poison of life Tip the cup, feed the fire, And forget about useless hope. . . Lost in the desolation of love The passions we reap and sow Lost in the desolation of life This path that we walk. . . Here's to love, the sickness The great martyr of the soul Here's to life, the vice The great herald of misery In this cup, spiritus frumenti For this is the nectar of the spirit Quench the thirst, drown the sorrow And forget about cold yesterdays. . . Lost in the desolation of love The passions we reap and sow Lost in the desolation of life This path that we walk. . . Lost in the desolation of love The sorrows we reap and sow Lost in the desolation of life The path that we walk. . . A song so completely miserable, it will make you feel better.

Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted November 26, 2004 Grey Goose - Ying Yang Twins. Tied with Georgia Dome for best song on Me & My Brother. Awesome. Not really depressing unless you look at it like "This is... my life?" Chumbawamba, by the way, are not one hit wonders in the common vernacular. True, they had one hit, but they're quite the idealistic and dedicated politcal band, rendering the most unusual thing about them the fact that they had a pop hit. It's most uncharacteristic. They also maintained a years long and rather lively feud with Prodigy. All around, not worth dismissal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gonna dive into a dive I've dove before Gonna haunt a haunt I've haunted Like a million times or more A familiar joint Where getting drunk's the only point To frequent this place With any frequency at all Countin' on a remedy I've counted on before Goin' with a cure that's never failed me What you call the disease, I call the remedy What you're callin' the cause I call the cure Gonna sing a song, a song to you A song I've sung before Belt out a ballad that I've belted out A million times or more The words I'm gonna scream And getting drunk's the central theme To the lyrics, if you can Make the lyrics out at all Countin' on a remedy I've counted on before Goin' with a cure that's never failed me What you call the disease, I call the remedy What you're callin' the cause I call the cure Just a devotion to a potion Okease no applause A dedication to a medication A crutch a cure a cause What I've counted on to pick me up Has knocked me to my knees Before I hit the floor once more I'll call it the disease Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
