WILCO - SPIDERS (KIDSMOKE)

Музыка

Spiders are singing in the salty breeze
Spiders are filling out tax returns
Spinning out webs of deductions and melodies
On a private beach in Michigan
Why can't they wish their kisses good
Why do they miss when their kisses should
Fly like winging birds fighting for the keys
On a private beach in Michigan
This recent rash of kidsmoke
All these telescopic poems
It's good to be alone
Why can't they say what they want
Why can't they just say what they mean
Come clean, listen and talk
Hello private callers, IDs blocked
The sun will rise, we'll climb into cars
The future has a valley and a shortcut around
Who will wear the crown of drowning award
Hold a private light on a Michigan shore
You fool me with a kiss of kidsmoke
From a microscopic home
It's good to be alone
I'll be in my bed
You can be the stone
That raises from the dead
And carries us all home
There's no blood on my hands
I just do as I am told

    It was hearing the studio version of this the first time that made me a Wilco fan proper; specifically the first time they break into the chorus. So tasty. 'I am FEELING this' thoughts began coursing! Obviously any live version of this is epic, but don't sleep on that studio rendition. A Ghost Is Born forever.

  • @shotdonkey
    @shotdonkey12 жыл бұрын

    @blackhawkfima it`s actually inspired much more by tweedy`s affinity for krautrock; especially the work of "NEU" and "Can". if you listen to anything these two bands did, you will make afew interesting discoveries. the beat used in "spiders" for example is known in krautrock as "motorik". generally speaking, "spiders" is much too steady (or "motorik" if you will) to be derived from "interstellar overdrive"...the affinities end in the general "drugginess" of the sound I`d say.

    The translations of the lyrics - is that Catalan? - is pretty funny. The translate "kidsmoke" to just "smoke". I'm picturing the conversation in the editing room for this broadcast: "El que es 'kidsmoke'?...No se...Solo tiene que ir con el 'fum'."

    listen to this song while riding on a train. Had kind of a revelation, observing the wheels of a neighboring one, in slower motion, a few weeks ago. Noticed how the metal of the wheels shined, on the inside. No sticky black matter; no life. Kind of made me think of the devil is chrome song. I'm guessing that's not what Tweedy meant, but it made sense. Man-made, shiny, powered by death, void of life. But shiny, beautiful, appealing- in the way that highly refined human-made objects can be.

    Don't they explode into the chorus again while the crowd is clapping? They did it at the Calgary show I went to in February, but this was awhile ago so I wonder if they did it then. Either way, I love all versions of this song: the droning, dry album version, the chaotic, jam-like live version, and the calm, melodic acoustic version played by Jeff.

    This song is ten minutes of incomprehensible lyrics, a lot of gratuitous atonal guitar wanking by Mr. Tweedy, and it doesn't even really have a tune. So why do I love it so much, and want to listen to it again and again? Fuck, I love music. It's such a mystery.

    You're right - it's like a more relaxed, less uptight version of krautrock. Never occurred to me before, but then I'm not a great Can fan. This strikes me as more concise and less druggy. Certainly doesn't remind me of Pink Floyd, even remotely.

    @5891jonathan No it isn't. Here's why. Of those 2,473,117 people who watched the American Idol video, almost all will forget about it within a couple of weeks. People who watch videos by bands like Wilco tend to be more involved in the music than American Idol viewers are. It's not about numbers but about quality of experience.

    (To be fair, it's not really 'atonal' guitar wanking - as Schoenberg said, 'atonal' doesn't really mean anything. 'Chromatic' guitar wanking, then.)
