Members bee3 Posted August 23, 2011 Members Share Posted August 23, 2011 I sure hope this is in the key of Depressed Just curious what coffee shops regularly play Slayer? You may need to go with something more along the lines of Fingers in her ears she pushes eject on John Mayer, Then pops in some Warsaw on the CD Player.

But I love the way the words Ian Curtis sing. Gotta keep his name in there. He's the one who sang Love Will Tear Us Apart. Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Lee Knight Posted August 23, 2011 Author Moderators Share Posted August 23, 2011 No! That's freaking GREAT! It's most definitely a three way co-write. I want to come up with a feel along the lines of Love Will but not that melody at all. I think it's really cool. Funny.

Moderators Lee Knight Posted August 23, 2011 Author Moderators Share Posted August 23, 2011 Ahhhh... So much clearer now... I'm serious! Bee used the phrase All the Joy Division Fans Work at Coffee Shops in response to Ram's comment about his barrista having a Love Will Tear Us Apart tattoo. A song by Joy Division. Joy Division being the gloomy but very cool yet depressing band from the late 70's. The singer committed suicide. Think Cure fans with really bad depression. Adn more loyal to cause. Or whatever. Coffee shops. See? So this all happened in another thread and I decided to use the phrase cause it cracked me up. Makes sense to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
