Sunday Is A Day To Reflect and Remember That Sinners, Non-Christians, Loose Women and Homosexuals Will All Burn In Hell
Dear God (XTC)
Dear god,
Hope you got the letter,
And I pray you can make it better down here.
I don’t mean a big reduction in the price of beer,
But all the people that you made in your image,
See them starving on their feet,
’cause they don’t get enough to eat
From god,
I can’t believe in you.
Dear god,
Sorry to disturb you,
But I feel that I should be heard loud and clear.
We all need a big reduction in amount of tears,
And all the people that you made in your image,
See them fighting in the street,
’cause they can’t make opinions meet,
About god,
I can’t believe in you.
Did you make disease, and the diamond blue?
Did you make mankind after we made you?
And the devil too!
Dear god,
Don’t know if you noticed,
But your name is on a lot of quotes in this book.
Us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look,
And all the people that you made in your image,
Still believing that junk is true.
Well I know it ain’t and so do you,
Dear god,
I can’t believe in,
I don’t believe in,
I won’t believe in heaven and hell.
No saints, no sinners,
No devil as well.
No pearly gates, no thorny crown.
You’re always letting us humans down.
The wars you bring, the babes you drown.
Those lost at sea and never found,
And it’s the same the whole world ’round.
The hurt I see helps to compound,
That the father, son and holy ghost,
Is just somebody’s unholy hoax,
And if you’re up there you’ll perceive,
That my heart’s here upon my sleeve.
If there’s one thing I don’t believe in...
It’s you,
Dear god.

Panalo! Ethnic Faces...Identity Crisis...Sa foreign, The Bolshoi.
Eto isa pa, medyo bago (mga early '90s) pero pasok parin sa WXB sound...Tupperware Party ng Violent Playground.
Grabe, ang hirap ng '80s pinanganak, ang daming nami-miss out na cool na eksena, buti nalang oks ang eksenang nakagisnan ko kahit na '90s ako nagkaisip.
Lalo na yung '90s ipinanganak, parang latak na eksena nalang ang inabot nila.
Parang yung hip-hop,punk, metal, new wave etc parang lahat nadevelop ng eighties, hanggang '90s..Tapos lahat medyo na-sell out.
Kawawa naman ang eksenang nakamulatan ng emo at gangsta kids ngayon.
G'Morning...Wapatu, galing ako ng gig sa Route 196 sa Katips, suporta sa banda ng tropa.
Nagtext na sa iyo si Kislapalitaptap?

Nung Sabado, bago kami nagpunta sa Route 196 dumaan muna kami saglit sa exhibit ni Romeo Lee sa Mag:net, yung ReLeegious exhibit, galing ng mga gawa niya.
Straycats, yeah! Rockabilly!
The Clash, Sex Pistols...Yan ang tunay na Punk, hindi yung punkilito stuff sa NU 107 ngayon.
Binky Lampano, blues...Wasak, panalo.
'Wag kalimutan ang Betrayed, Urban Bandits at ang The Wuds.

meron pa akong tape ng WUDS hanggang ngayon hehe... wala atang pumantay sa kanila dito sa 'pinas pagdating sa eksenang punk. sinubaybayan ko din yung sagutan nila ni Heber nung magka problema sila.
may naitago pa nga ako pinaka unang edition ng JINGLE magazine. pamana pa sa akin yun hehe...
ang sama na ng eksena ngayon sa pinoy music di ko ma appreciate. lumabnaw nung late 90s nagtuloy-tuloy ngayon. year 2000 onwards walang lumabas na matibay na eksena. yung ginawa ng Radio Active Sago Project walang pumantay o nag innovate na kagaya nila--sayang.
wala rin pumalit sa JUan de la Cruz Band in terms ng kapal ng tugtugan kahit wala sana linya ang lyrics nila kung sa maturity at kapal ng tugtugan man lang sana.
pag ganito ng ganito ang eksena kailangan na naman atang gumawa ng isang mala "Brave new world" na eksena, buhayin ulit ang tunay na underground music movement tulad ng ginawa ng WXB at yung lumang LA105 pati yung DZRJ bato ng maynila.
pangarap ko yan magtayo ng isang underground bar na may underground music scene tsaka underground arts

Try mo..
Submitted by j luna on January 12, 2009 - 12:46pm.
Yung isang station ng RJ..
RJ UR Radio...Nasa PAgitan ng 105.5-106 yun..
Wasak ang tugtugan dun, papatugtog sila ng bagong indie song, biglang next song punk next song glam, o kaya classic rock.
May dedicated silang slot para sa metal at sa iba pang genres.
Mas rock pa sa NU 107.
Maraming nagi-innovate ngayon kaso ngalang walang airplay at limited ang lugar nila, yung Purple Chickens sayang atig na poet pa naman ang vox nila.
Tuloy mo yung plano mo, suportahan namin.
tol, pano ba raw gawin ni Axel para makapag-post uli? Di din ako marunong e.I-email ba si Noid? Parang ganun pagkaintindi ko sa procedures e.
