Boots or Hearts-Lake Fever-New Orleans is Beat

- skippy the wonder dog - 12-20-2004

Scared - Fire in the Hole - Springtime in Vienna - Bobcaygeon: references to Nazism or neo-Nazism.

Cemetery Sideroad - New Orleans is Sinking - Nautical Disaster - Scared - Poets - Emperor Penguin - Sharks - The Dire Wolf - Vaccination Scar - The Heart of the Melt - etc.: use of the recurring ocean metaphor.

Sharks - Scared - Locked - The Heart of the Melt: sharks and sea monsters.

Cemetery Sideroad - Nautical Disaster - Vaccination Scar: lighthouses

Daredevil - Gift Shop - Cordelia: risky business

Forest Edge - Willow Logic: use of the forest archetype

Heart of the Melt - 11th Fret: melt away now

I can play this game for hours .... so I'll leave ya with:

Opiated - Brown-Eyed Women (The Grateful Dead):
the bottle is dusty but my engine is clean /
the bottle is dusty but the liquor is clean

- hotmetal401 - 12-20-2004

Road Apples - an album named after a makeshift hockey puck
Fifty MC - Bill Balriko
Wheat Kings - Brandon's WHL team
700 Ft Ceiling - "in our own backyard, we can do some floodin'"
Fireworks - Bobby Orr
It's A Good Life If You Don't Weaken - forget yer skates dream
Steeplechase - Ace Bailey outro
Heaven Is A Better Place Today - for Dan Snyder
The Heart of the Melt- "I could dance with a puck / in a telephone booth"

So they like to write hockey songs.

Cheers

Hmm, yeah, and while I'm at it:

Wheat Kings - We'll Go Too - Scared - Visions of Johanna (Bob Dylan)

Dylan:
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while

Downie's museums have similar connotations. Hmmm..... I think Gord refers to and borrows from other lyric writers more often than people realize.

yeah, back before you could just walk down to canadian tire, it was quite common to use horse shit as hockey pucks.

indeed, although, i don't see why people didn't just cut a piece of tree branch off for a wooden puck, seems like it would be better than poop, although i've never played with poop, so i guess i wouldn't know :lol:.

I've always like the stripper references...Thompson girl, freckled breasts, stripper coughing, there's more but I don't have time...I'll take suggestions from the audience.

- j-monster - 12-20-2004

Shakespeare references... Cordelia, Problem Bear ("Shakespeare, you're a drunken savage...).

After that... uh, I got nothin'.
