!!! You're both right to a point - it is rock nonsense, but then again that was the point of Vision Thing surely? A great big strutting cod-piece wearing rock-god.

And although the lyrics don't have the serious content of other VT songs, to accuse them of being straightforward or stupid is a bit harsh :razz:

For me it's a very cleverly worded guns-blazing attack on a group of people - very AE.

Like someone pointed out, the "head/hair" line is brilliant, and all the other references are great - it's clever stuff - fair enough, there's only one interpretation (hippies are stupid, but attractive female hippies will at least sleep with you), but it serves it's purpose well.

And Bruhns solo is cool as well.

I think they should do it live.

Right, I'll duck now against the likely barrage of comeback remarks ;-)

with you there kid! It'd be a laff.

Funny how this one song stirs up so much aggro. When you've got someone who will happily stroll on stage with 'love god' written on his arm it's not that out of place is it?

I always wanted them to do 'Help Yourself' until Steve Coogan in his Latino persona got there first

Well, my vote for most-loathed TSOM tune used to go to "Watch" (utterly horrendous)...but I just heard "You Could Be the One" for the first time (!!!) on one of Live365.com's Perkigoth streams. All I can say is - it's utterly horrendous, too. Unbelievably boring. YUCK!!! :roll: :von:

I really dislike YCBTO, it's simple rock s**t with stupid lyrics.
Also, More and Walk Away ain't their best songs.
All the rest is class (even Home of the Hit-men :grin: )

IZZY.


I must agree. Since we're in blasphemy all right, I'll remove More and Walk Away and replace it with "lights". I CANNOT like that song.
What's wrong with me? Do I need help? })
The vast majority of others allow me to disagree. Watch and Damage Done are great! The older I get the more I like it!

I should add that i don't really like Watch or The Damage Done, and i like When You Don't See me and You Could Be The One when i'm working out. These are very good workout songs :D

To be honest, "more" is beginning to grate on my nerves.

Nothing to do with the production style or anything, and I love the video - it's just a bit repetative.
