The Breeders Lyrics
(Check, check, check)
(One, two)
(One, two)
Spitting in a wishing well
Blown to hell, crash
I'm the last splash
I know you, little libertine
I know you're a real cuckoo
Want you cuckoo cannonball
Want you cuckoo cannonball
In the shade, in the shade
In the shade, in the shade
I know you, little libertine
I know you're a cannonball
I'll be your whatever you want
The bong in this reggae song
In the shade
In the shade
Want you cuckoo cannonball
Want you cuckoo cannonball
Spitting in a wishing well
Blown to hell, crash
I'm the last splash
I'll be your whatever you want
The bong in this reggae song
Want you cuckoo cannonball
Want you cuckoo cannonball
In the shade, in the shade
In the shade, in the shade

@TheHeavyMan What even is Alternative tbh?.
It’s a term that makes no sense.
I just don’t like music that sounds different all getting lumped in together.
Calling bands and groups like The Breeders, Blind Melon, Counting Crowes, Spin Doctors, Semisonic, Oasis, Deep Blue Something, Republica, Blur, etc etc, as “Alternative”.
Is like calling Slayer, Morbid Angel, Megedeth, Venom and Death as “PoP”.
To me Alternative Rock is mostly just 90’s and 00’s Hard Rock/Metal that was inspired by Mike Patton of Faith No More.
Songs that I consider to be true Alternative Rock are
Filter - The Best Things
KidneyThieves - Taxicab Messiah
Guano Apes - Open Your Eyes
Incubus - Pardon Me
These songs imo are very good examples of what true Alternative Rock is.

There is none Good but God John 3:16, Rev 3:16
@Mike Fallopian music is aight but Jesus is the best
Why should God let you into Heaven?
Have you lied (even once in your entire life), looked with lust (sexual desire), dishonoured parents, stolen anything, had hatred towards someone, had premarital sex, adultery etc If you answered yes to any one of the above then you are a sinner like the rest of us.
So, I ask you again, why should God let a sinner into Heaven?
Sinners don’t go to heaven they go to hell, But we are blessed to have Jesus (God incarnate) die on the Cross and rise from the dead. If you Repent (forsake your sinful, unholy ways and live righteous instead) & Believe in Jesus as God, you will be seen as a Saint and welcomed into Heaven.
John 3:17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved
There is none Good but God John 3:16, Rev 3:16
@KaptKrunkReno You know what was greater and IS greater Jesus

@A1 yes good but you must also repent you can't do sinful stuff, consider the following
SIN, WHAT IS IT?
Sin is doing wrong, therefore being disobedient towards God. God is the epitome of Holiness, therefore He hates sin.
Here are just some examples, Have you ever lied, stolen (big or small), Used Gods name in vain, lusted after opposite sex, Committed sexual sins, swore, disrespected parents, hated someone, gotten drunk, used or abused others, had bad thoughts, inappropriate talk, was selfish and worshipped others who are not God.
All have sinned in thought, word or deed therefore turn from your evil ways and believe in Jesus today for forgiveness and to be let into Heaven!

one of the most perfect basslines in rock history.
HenryWaltonJones
Peter Hook would be proud of that bass line
Brian Bailey
Fun fact, the two lines where he plays the bassline a bit flat at the beginning was an honest mistake during a rehearsal, but they liked the sound of it so they decided to keep it.
whitykitty
i thought it was just me who noticed! I love playing this bassline.
