What Are You Listening To?

[CRAZY-HORSE]

SEX PISTOLS  "never mind the bollocks....here's the sex pistols"  vinyl/cd  1977

retuning to an old friend this weekend
made it a John Lydon one.
listened yesterday, never got a chance to post.
their debut and only studio album.
has influenced as many artists as any other group in history.
one of the most iconic album covers of all time.
its on full speed from the get-go and doesnt let up for the entire 38 minutes.
theres only two absolute essential punk albums you should own, this one,
and The Clash's debut album IMO.
turned the music world upside down in the same way as Elvis on Ed Sullivan,
Beatles' Sgt Pepper or DSOTM.
an absolute masterpiece.
I believe its one of those albums that everybody should listen to at least once in their lives!
I LOVE THIS ALBUM.

I wont post the 'usual suspects' this time but a pretty confronting song about abortion.






She was a girl from Birmingham
She just had an abortion
She was a case of insanity
Her name was Pauline she lived in a tree

She was a no-one who killed her baby
She sent her letters from the country
She was an animal
She was a bloody disgrace

Body I'm not an animal
Body I'm not an animal

Dragged on a table in a factory
Illegitimate place to be
In a packet in a lavatory
Die little baby screaming

Body screaming fucking bloody mess
Not an animal it's an abortion
Body I'm not an animal
Mummy I'm an abortion

Throbbing squirm, gurgling bloody mess
I'm not a discharge
I'm not a loss in protein
I'm not a throbbing squirm

Ah! Fuck this and fuck that
Fuck it all tha fuck out of the fucking brat
She don't wanna a baby that looks like that
I don't wanna a baby that looks like that.

Body I'm not an animal
Body, an abortion
Body I'm not an animal
Body I'm not an animal
An animal
I'm not an animal
I'm not an animal, an animal, an-an-an animal
I'm not a body
I'm not an animal, an animal, an-an-an animal
I'm not an animal
Mummy! Ugh!
