New Happy Mondays Album

[Brighton Breezy]

Anyone else got it?

Return to form from the GENIUS that is Shaun Ryder.

In years to come he will be held in the same esteem as the great song-writers and social poets.

 

[Napper]

I already hold him that esteem, legend

 

[Willow]

It's going to be a pile of poo, isn't it? It's not 1990 anymore. Has there every been an album by ANY reformed band that was actually any good? I think not.

 

[Albion Dan]

As a massie fan Im a bit worried what this album is going to be like, Im not holding out too much hope for it from the small bits Ive heard thus far. Will still buy it though.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Shaun Ryder a social poet? I'm not sure about that, although "Jesus was a black man, no, Jesus was Batman, no, no,no - that was Bruce Wayne!" was lyrical genius of a kind. I'm amazed Ryder is still alive.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Ryder is a genius and by buying the album, you could in some small way be contributing to the medical treatment of Tony Wilson.

 

[The Wookiee]

I can virtually do anything I read
Someone somewhere swa between your knees
Hand me out fish, did some big tease
Oh man did you f*** it, Baby brother I took it
Then I pilfered th ebag and the amex gold
Because the lord chief constable knows I'm owen
And everybody said I told you so

God made it easy
God made it easy on me
God made it easy on me

God rains it E's
God rains it E's all on me
God made it E's all on me

'Coz me and the chief got soul to soul
Me and the chief got slowly stoned
Me and the chief got soul to soul
Oh me and all the chiefs get slowly stoned

I like it and I want it and I just don't need to stop it
Cos me and all the rich got mobile homes - homes
Me and all the rich got mobile phones - bones

God made it easy
God made it easy on me
God made it easy on me

God rains it E's
God rains it E's all on me
God made it E's all on me

'Coz me and the chief got soul to soul
Me and the chief got slowly stoned
Me and the chief got soul to soul
Oh me and all the chiefs get slowly stoned

God made it easy
God made it easy on me
God made it easy on me

God rains it E's
God rains it E's all on me

 

[Stoaty Ferret]

Son, I'm 30
I only went with your mother 'cause she's dirty
And I don't have a decent bone in me
What you get is just what you see yeah
I see it so I take it freely
And all the bad piss ugly things i feed me
I never help or give to the needy
Come on and see me

Yippee-ippee-ey-ey-ay-yey-yey
I had to crucify some brother today
And I don't dig what you gotta say
So come on and say it
Come on and tell me twice

I said dad you're shabby
You run around and groove like a baggy
You're only here just out of habit
All that's mine you might as well have it
You take ten feet back and then stab it
Spray it on and 'tag it
So sack on me
I can't stand the needy
Get around here if you're asking you're feeling

Yippee-ippee-ey-ey-ay-yey-yey
I had to crucify somebody today
And I don't dig what you gotta say
So come on and say it
Come on and tell me twice

So sack all the needy
I can't stand to leave it
You come around here and you put both your feet in

Yippee-ippee-ey-ey-ay-yey-yey
I had to crucify somebody today
And I don't dig what you gotta say
So go on and say it

Yippee-ippee-ey-ey-ay-yey-yey
I had to crucify some brother today
And I don't hear what you gotta say
So come on and say it
Come on and tell me twice

Greatest band ever.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

I'm not buying it on principle til they come back and do a proper gig in Brighton (poxy T-Mobile thing doesn't count) - or til it's a fiver in Virgin. Soon come

reformed!, my arse. this genius is producing album after album of pure gold

it's simply packaged under a different name and the marketing works. This is his

ninth album.


Squirrel And G Man.. - Happy Mondays

Bummed - Happy Mondays

Pills N Thrills.. - Happy Mondays

Live - Happy Mondays

Yes Please - Happy Mondays

It's Great When.... - Black Grape

Stupid Stupid Stupid - Black Grape

Amature Night At The Big Top - Anonymous

Uncle Dysfuktional - Happy Mondays

Each one album is a progression of the other, so good or bad 'reformed' is not

the right term here....

 

[Dr. Notthenineo'clocknews]

'Coz me and the chief got soul to soul
Me and the chief got slowly stoned
Me and the chief got soul to soul
Oh me and all the chiefs get slowly stoned

BTW Good work Wookiee

I love this one, esp this verse for some reason

Oh Happy (Mon)days

 

[Skaville]

I loved the Mondays and Black Grape and had to buy the album, but it was a terrible waste of a tenner. Dreadful.

PS - Whenever I hear "Big Day in the North" it reminds me of the York City debacle in '96. We were singing it on the way to the ground. How right we were!

 

[Pat McCrotch]

likely to be shit but will give it a go
