Listen, this aināt a hot take, and Iām pretty behind on this tune- but as far as song-titles that start with āI wannaā goā¦ this is currently in the 12th inning overtime with I Wanna Be Your Dog by The Stooges.
Seriously, the only thing I dont like about this song is that it ends. The Roses could go in and out of jams for 20 minutes using Ian Brownās chant as a refrain and Iād be listening to it all day.
Itās crazy. the music just comes at you like an airborne toxic event and overtakes you. The magic of the mix, I guess.
I still donāt think that their self titled is deserving of the best british album of all time. Madchester was a cute moment though.
Whatever this is, need more now.

There arenāt many bands or songs out there you can point to and say āthis changed my lifeā but this band and song did.
It contains one of the dirtiest guitar licks ever recorded, an earworm of melody and noise.
They helped me discover the Velvet Underground š(and kick-started the so-called Paisley Underground movement that gave birth to the Bangles among others).
My band could even play this song and it sounded BOSS (not every cover did, ha). So simple anyone could play it; but only THEY could write it.
I wrote about the PaIsley Underground years later for Magnet: https://magnetmagazine.com/2001/05/18/one-nation-underground-the-story-of-the-paisley-underground/
God bless Steve Wynn and Co š¶ this one's still a keeper many decades later.

this is one of my all-time favourites... and i refuse to believe that "songs for the general public" is 5 years old already!!!
a perfect glam rock track/album honestly so so fun to belt along too!!
the lemon twigs are so underrated and their sonic evolution and dabbling into many different defining 60s/70s genres with such mastery is so satisfying.... the d'addario brothers are so talented and you should listen to their father's old stuff too!!

Probably my fave Bowie album- or at least the one that helped me locate a personal resonance with Bowie. Itās jagged, fragmented and manic- written coming off of a nasty coke addiction in Berlin (the coke addiction is NOT where I found personal resonance btw). Where in the hell am I, seems to be the question.
Always Crashing In The Same Car might be the best Bowie song. The poetics of repeated mistakes.

This album is like when youāre in the park on a summer day, a bit stoned, and everything seems to be pretty hazy. No oneās really following a conversation per se, and no one knows how long youāve been sitting there for.
One of four highly anticipated solo records from the Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young boys, released in I think ā71. I dont know enough about CSNY to compare and contrast (except that I know Neil Young was never interested much in this kind of la-la-laāing on his solo efforts).
I like this record because itās like insight into the mind of the last living Hippie, the true Hippie- snapshots and reel to reels from the end of the Love Decade. It sorta feels like Crosbyās standing there in the rain wondering what happened to everyone, when was it hip to get paranoid? Maybe we were lost in a flower dream the whole time!
This is seriously easy listening- and I disagree with Lester Bangs who called it āthe perfect aural aid to digestionā- this is music to wander around to, to contemplate some things to, or just to zone out to.
