Completely unexpected cover, gotta give this lady credit. Much as that album blew up back in the day, this particular track, one of my favorites, I always felt was a bit under-appreciated. Good stuff.
O’ Bedlam Fun Fact: when I was a kid, and had just gotten into reading as entertainment, I was also getting into music. Unfortunately, I could only afford one album every few months.
As a result, I’d tend to listen to a single album for the entire time I was reading a particular novel.
So, picture Li’l 12 year old Lou, curled up in bed on a saturday afternoon, rocking out to Blood Sugar Sex Magic while reading…wait for it…Clive Barker’s The Great And Secret Show.
If you’ve read it, you’ll realize how strange that is. And even stranger, how I can’t hear a song from that album without immediately thinking of some of the fucked up shit that went down in that book.
If you haven’t read it, just know that I can’t hear a song from that album without thinking of some fucked up shit that went down in that book.
And there are many albums like that for me, because from the ages of 12-15 it was pretty much all horror novels, all the time.
