Seen that online before but never actually looked at the track list, interesting that it ends with Be Natural. It's my favourite song on the album and surely it must've been highly thought of by someone to even be part of a promo like that yet not highly thought of enough to be played live at all until these anniversary gigs. Mind you, this is the same band that sold merch with I Think I've Found It and Don't Be Evil written on it but didn't play either of those songs at all..

Over the years, I’ve seen that “Born A Girl” is often maligned by fans, but it has always struck a very deep chord with me. I don’t know what that may or may not say about me but...yeah, a lot of raw emotions tied up in that song.

It takes courage to write and sing a song like that, really. |
To be fair the lyrics
The censorship of my skin Is screaming inside and from within There's no room in this world for a girl like me No place around there where I fit in could be written both by and for a girl as much as by and for a man It's not easy being born a girl |
I still see no problem in these lyrics, sorry.
All I see here is a person struggling with the pressure to conform to social norms and stereotypes. Doesn't suggest girls have it easier either. |

But enough sensible analysis, because I really replied because I love your typo (“Born A Gril”)! Sounds like a song for George Foreman or something... #... I wish I had been born a grill / And not this messy old pan... :D https://s2.gifyu.com/images/BORNAGRIL600px.jpg |
Ahahahahah
Born a Grill ♥ Didn't notice, thanks for pointing out. Thought I wanted to edit my original forum reply, but I guess, at this point, it's better to leave it as it is. :) |
I was expressing an opinion not a problem
and I always read Life Becoming a Landslide ... 'I don't want to be a man' as a desire to remain a child and never grow up with so much corrupted My invite to the barbecue in the post then? |

In this season of goodwill, let’s hope ‘throw some acid into your face’ goes the same way as ‘I laughed when Lennon got shot’ pretty soon.

Random "what if..." thought.
What if you had a time machine and went back to 1992, when Generation Terrorists was released and toured, and had the Manics listen to Resistance is Futile? What would be the reactions? Would they recognise James' and Nicky's voices? Would they relate to the lyrics? Would they like the music style? Would that change the sound and concept of their whole discography? Okay, guess I need to sleep now. Good night. ♥ |
