Formed with the intention of getting free booze for playing music G.U. recorded their 1st L.P in 2004 released through the excellent Undergroove label. Imaginatively titled "G.U. Medicine", the album received rave reviews in the music press both in the U.K and Elsewhere. Other drinkers were quick to jump on the (badly driven) bandwagon and The Medicine recorded sessions for BBC Radio 1's Rock Show and Ian Camfield's XFM show.
Veterans of the road G.U have racked up countless U.K and European tours with the likes of The Wildhearts, Nick Oliveri and his Mondo Generator, My Ruin, Open Hand, Viking Skull, The Almighty, Left Side Brain and probably some more that they've forgotten about due to the beers. Picking up fans, broken-down vans and hangovers along the way.
in 2006 the band released their 2nd long player, "Saints of Excess" which was again hosted by the mighty Undergroove label. Again critical acclaim followed and the band recorded two videos to accompany "A Meeting With Foul Play" (Directed by Rod Thomas) and "Saints of Excess" (Filmed on tour with The Wildhearts in May/June '07). The 'Foul Play' Video won the New Blood competition on the Scuzz music channel with an amazing 48% of the viewers vote. If you want to take a squizz at these mash-ups why not take a look on the Medicine's myspace site or YouTube somewhere.
The moving hand writes. Having written, moves on. As a wise man once said. In November 2007 Medicine drummer and founding member Pete Williams left the band due to "family commitments". This left an empty drumstool which was quickly and very ably filled by Murray Medicine who brings fresh energy and an increased level of drumming ability!
Naaar Then! G.U Have just about polished of the last of the spirits cabinet and wrote another batch of killer riffs which is set to become the bands' 3rd (and as yet untitled) album. Due to be recorded May '08 with new producer Jason Sanderson (Errander, The Plight, Send More Paramedics, D-Rail etc) and released again through Undergroove. It promises to rock harder, darker, faster, slower and crazier than ever before. If you have a moustache please prepare for it to be blown clean off. If not, grow one quick smart!
Shut up

And it won't leave me alone, nope
Damn, I wish I could turn it off...
But that shit wont shut up
Sh-Sh-Shit wont shut up
Got an internal monologue
And it won't leave me alone, nope
Damn, I wish I could turn it off...
Sh-Sh-Shit wont shut up
You can't hear the voices in me
They just want me to die...
They tell me to die
Maybe I'll give in to the urges
And you will see me some day in the sky
I feel so plastic
I cannot see past this
I'm not made of magic
I feel like an E.T. inside
Feel like an E.T. inside
Feel like an E.T. inside
Got an internal monologue
And it won't leave me alone, nope
Damn, I wish I could turn it off...
But that shit wont shut up
Sh-Sh-Shit wont shut up
Got an internal monologue
And it won't leave me alone, nope
Damn, I wish I could turn it off...
But that shit wont shut up
Sh-Sh-Shit wont shut up
The lyrics of G.U. Medicine's song "Shut Up" seem to depict a person struggling with negative self-talk and intrusive thoughts, which are described as an "internal monologue" that won't leave the person alone. Despite wishing to silence these thoughts, the person feels unable to do so, as they continue to plague them with self-doubt, self-criticism, and possibly even suicidal ideation. The repetition of the phrase "Shit won't shut up" emphasizes the frustration and helplessness of the situation, as the person feels trapped and overwhelmed by their own mind.
The line "Maybe I'll give in to the urges and you will see me some day in the sky" suggests that the person may be contemplating self-harm or suicide in response to the internal turmoil they are experiencing. The reference to feeling like an "E.T. inside" could be interpreted as a sense of alienation or not belonging in their own body or mind. Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of someone struggling with mental health issues and feeling unable to break free from the negative thought patterns that are impacting them.
Some possible interpretations of the song could be that it is a call to action for seeking help and support for mental health issues, or a way of raising awareness for the importance of mental health care and destigmatizing mental illness.

這個女主要抓人實在太笨，把自己明晃晃的攤在陽光下，跟鴕鳥一樣，查人查的這麼明明白白，我覺得寫劇本的人是腦殘，畢竟女主一個女強人，做事心思應該都很細密，覺不會一有小點事情就露餡自己
@lovebear12177
