Lyrics - Why Now...?

I read a long time ago that Karl had said that he didn't publish his Lyrics because he liked to leave them open to interpretation, and that they only published the Lyrics to Born Slippy because the meaning of the song was getting lost and that he wanted to show that it was an anti drinking song and not a lager anthem...

so,

why start publishing Lyrics now....?

not that its not nice, and saves us time deciphering them, its just a new move...i wondered why really...

and if KH is being generous can we have the correct lyrics to the entire back catalogue ;)

it would be funny to see how 'out' many of the suggested lyrics are from what they actually should be...

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

yeah, i finally got around to download the 'pizza for eggs' and
'lovely broken things' and was thinking the same thing..

it IS nice having the lyrics this time around...i wonder
how many more songs will have lyrics though?

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

maybe it's because they're older and probably wont remember what their own lyrics are j/k:p

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

we also know that "warm machine" is not "war machine" ;)

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

change

well its as good as a rest....

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

Everyone needs some change now and then. :)

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

Maybe to draw people to the site? Website = sales.

you old synic...i really don't think thats an UW tactic...

i think generating interest in UW is, but making money not teh prime directive, although it is a business...and bills do need paying...

_underworldlive_

ok, thats kinda freaky...

i know they check the message boards..

but i hardly suspected that they would say
anything about lyrics...

and then i checked the underworldlive site today!

wow!

..............change............

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

well, Karl seems to be responding to direct questions on the board via the UWlive diary quite regularly now. Wich is a good change as well :)

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

well, i hope his feelings arent hurt by this survivor game.
i know i've said some nasty things about DA3D...

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

I just want to know when the next River Run project is going to be released.

guilty conscience, eh?
serves you right, DA3D is a great track :p

but seriously: i in r&k&d's place would find the survivor-polls quite interesting :) instant insight to the fanbase ;)

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

I dont think the lyrics now question was inappropriate.. they've been so fiercely against them for so long, I wondered it myself. Kinda cool that theres lyrics now.

Really? Ah, damn, I kinda liked "war machine" more. I mean, he just yells it so forcefully that it would make more sense.

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

In response to the question Lyrics - Why Now? his reply was ..............Change?

which was nice :)

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

The lyrics for Spoonman are in the video as are some for Cowgirl, which are all in the mmm skyscraper book.

'i scream'

Re: Lyrics - Why Now...?

ah ha, ok, I knew of this but I don't own it, now I know that I have to.

I'd love to see "official" lyrics to Dirty Epic as it's my favourite UW track. However, I feel that maybe Karl does not release lyrics because in some way they are a changing work at all times. For instance - the awesome bit that he adds to King of snake on EE, or some of the bits that he puts into songs lyrically as they play them live. I think that they're always changing and evolving like anything that has real heart in it.

Just my thought.
