My Review

 

 

I’ve written a review of some of my fave Garbage songs and why they are my fave

 

I’m Only Happy When It Rains- I LOVE this song.. it’s maybe due to Shirley’s accent coming through a lot.. in this song she sounds really Scottish.. Fave line : "I only smile in the dark, my only comfort is the night gone black" .. don’t ya just love this song!?

As Heaven Is Wide- Now I think this song is so good.. it shows so much anger… and betrayal.. just totally amazon.. Fave line "nothing said can change the fact my trust was blind you broke the pact, if gods my witness god must be blind… choke on guilt that’s far to good for you say one word I’ll laugh and bury you, and leave you in the place you left me"

Cool words, huh?

 

Milk- This song is very intense, very lustful, a real feeling of longing… I love the slowness of this song, with lines like "I am milk, I am red hot kitchen" red hot kitchen being another of saying "I am horny" very smart.. "I’m waiting, I’m waiting for you" this song is a classic..

 

Temptation Waits- I think this song is totally excellent, one of my very faves on version 2.0… I like Shirley’s voice in this one especially at the start "I’ll tell you something, I am a wolf, but I like to wear sheeps clothing…" I love the way "clothing" is sang.. I think I like the verses better than the chorus.

 

Medication- I LOVE THIS SONG… this is one of my very faves… I like the slowness… I luv everything about this song.. luv the bit "it keeps my temperature from rising"… best song ever!

 

Hammering In My Head- like the way this song changes you know? Then the ending is great, I feel like falling asleep listening to it… so damn relaxing… "don’t forget what I wrote you then, don’t forget what I told you then" … in a whispering voice….

 

You Look So Fine- what a song to end a fantastic album, eh? So dreamy in parts.. bewilderment… love the way it starts, so dramatic "you look so fine".. real class..

As Heaven Is Wide

Very cool song one of my faves on the debut album

Soldier Through This

Such a beautiful song don't ya think? So much emotion in it, just sso real.. a amazon feeling about it..and you can hear this coming through in her voice.. one of my fave B-sides.. EVER.

Sleep

GOD!!! I love this song ssssso much… "in the middle of the night, head on my pillow.. looking like a little ghost…" is this not the best way to start this song.. I love the slowness, sleepy, floating atmosphere to this song.. such innocence to it.. This song is my number 1 fave..

Lick The Pavement

I like the anger in this song, such attitude.. cool… very cool

Girl Don't Come

I'm not to fond of this song.. well I'm not exactly saying I hate it.. cos I don’t.. I don’t hate any Garbage songs.. but I don't think it's as good.. you know?

Trip My Wire

: ) What can I say, wot a great song.. it sso strange how Shirley Manson can change her voice to suit the song.. she sounds as if shes really sad, and angery at the same time.. I love the blurred words near the end of the song.. v.cool..

Get Busy With The Fizzy

Wot a Strange sounding song, and I love it! She seems to be singing in a English/American accent… sounds really American in parts.. like at the word "sort".. I love the way at the end of each sentence is dragged out like "cccrowd" "cccarr" .. I think this song sounds V.different from other Garbage songs.

Can't Seem To Make You Mine

This song is strange.. but very cool.. it's a very clever sounding song. I love the bit "can't you see what your doing to me…. ". This song has really grown on me, : ) I LOVE IT!!!

 

Hope ya enjoyed reading ma wee review on what I think,
