YDS with lyrics was at least as early as Tokyo '05 (probably earlier)...was Mamgu heard before OWB?

Actually, YDS's first time was Sophia, the day before Exit, and it was also lyricless then. Sometime between Exit and HMH is when it gained lyrics. Which leads me to suspect that they were cribbed from Mamgu. Also, the "studio" version heard on the 2008 Isle of Wight radio show doesn't have lyrics.

Never knew what Mamgu meant. Sorry for your loss.

It was interesting reading the lyrics. I think the clearest delivery of the lyrics is in the Underworld vs Bungalow with Stairs broadcast on 12-11-2008.

For what its worth, if words / lyrics cant really describe how you should feel about a person's passing then this song has nailed it to a t

Re: Best Mamgu Ever lyrics?
One of my favorite UW tracks. My take:

you float
come down slow
full association / I hear you
I hear wheels
on marbled floor
you drop white china until / <something> for more

the wind is dripping from your face
between me and the sun
I love the way you done from
when I'm hungry
your silence / is like a kiss I feel you
remember you


Can't make out that word in the last line of the first verse at all – it's pretty much swallowed, and I don't want to just guess. Ah, well. It's unfortunate the song has only (AFAIK) been played live once.
