My favourite JCS facts are that Ian Gillan of Deep Purple was the original Jesus and Ted Neely having calculated that after 30 years of performances he'd spent more time doing Jesus's sermons than Jesus did.

Did you know it used to have a storyline and there was an evil caboose character who was deliberately wrecking trains and killing people? And then they took that out because I dunno it was too much story or something?

exquisite tea posted:Also the masses/masses line in War Pigs are two different words, anyway. ???? they both are spelled and pronounced the same and also have the same meaning (also that line double-sucks because the "at" is unnaturally stressed instead of "black", to make the meter work. just an awkward as hell line.)

mass = a gathering, a large conglomeration of people mass = a religious ceremony, as in, the receiving of the eucharist

Ah, poo poo, sorry. It looks like many years ago someone sold me a false etymology of "mass" in the religious sense (i.e. that it is a gathering). It apparently has an entirely separate etymology, and that's just a coincidence. Mea culpa.

Wasn't this thread just generally agreeing a little while ago that folks don't bother to look into the meaning of the lyrics? I guess they do when the song sounds weird otherwise!

There once was a priest with a mass of a hitherto unheard of mass who took scripture en masse to a church down in Mass And thus had it removed at a mass

Just want to throw in that unless you're doing something clever, rhyming a word with the same word is like the smallest effort you can possibly make. Also War Pigs is fine but it's not a profound thing left behind by a wise elder. You know what song always annoyed me? That Katy Perry one about hot/cold, yes/no, wrong/right whatever. I haven't heard the song in years but I am pretty sure there is actually only like one set of rhyming words in that entire song. I mean, not to get into an argument about assonance, the second smallest effort you can make. credburn has a new favorite as of 02:31 on Feb 11, 2023 |

Most of the music i listen to that has lyrics intentionally distort the vocals to a point they are hard to understand so tbh i dont think it matters if they rhyme or anything like that

It was on these forums that someone pointed this out to me, like twenty years ago:The Turtles - Happy Together posted:The only one for me is you It's the same thing said twice. The only one for me is you. You're the only one for me. It's just words rearranged. There's no reciprocal inverse. I mean, this is also a song that contains So happy together... how is the weather? Haha actually, man I like the sound of the Turtles but their lyrics are really scraping the bottom of the barrel of trying. I really think you're groovy let's go out to a movie credburn has a new favorite as of 14:53 on Feb 11, 2023 |

I don't remember what song it is but there's a country song that rhymes "pride" with "fad" and that totally works when you say it in the southern accent I guess.

Also "The only one for me is you" and "The only one for you is me" are not the same statement. One person may feel more strongly than the other, so even if I am the only one for YOU, I might have other priorities, so assuming that you are the only one for me is weird and controlling.

One person may feel more strongly than the other, so even if I am the only one for YOU, I might have other priorities, so assuming that you are the only one for me is weird and controlling. Its not saying that though, its: 'The only one for me is you and you for me' The two statements you are saying, and what people would presume not thinking about the lyrics, is if it was: 'The only one for me is you and me for you' Unless I'm misunderstanding something, basically its not saying what you're implying its just the same sentence twice.
