If anyone could equal the MC5 and Stooges at their insane best, it's Nixon Now.
Kevin McHugh, stonerrock.com
Hamburg hipshakers Nixon Now are one such example of the MC5 legacy and, to tell you the truth, they do the two-minute-and-change supercharged fuzzbomb better than the originals. The one thing that can be said for Nixon Now is that they exude that rare rock n’ roll energy that is so friggin’ hard to capture on a studio recording. Altamont Nation Express actually sounds like the band going Chernobyl in front of a rabid, sweaty and panty-throwing audience. It’s all stun guitars with Kamikaze divebomb solos, Keith Moon-like percussive abandon and pre-Punk snotty spit n’ fuck you attitude. You’ll most certainly dig Nixon Now if the MC5 appeals to you,

Make My Day
Nixon Now Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
make it perfect and just go away
I don't think I want you to stay
so baby can't you hear my prayer
get out of my way and
My my hey hey
do me a favour and make my day
I dont think I want you to stay
so get out of my way and
Everything would be ok
if you just get lost and make my day
honey I don't need no lay
So baby can't you hear my prayer
get out of my way and
The lyrics of Nixon Now's song Make My Day express a desire for someone or something to leave, thus creating a perfect day for the singer. The lyrics open up with the singer addressing someone, possibly a partner or acquaintance, asking them to "make my day, make it perfect and just go away." The singer expresses a desire for the person to leave and states that they do not want them to stay. The chorus repeats the plea for the person to leave, accompanied by the line "My my hey hey, do me a favor and make my day." The singer emphasises that everything would be okay if the person were to leave and makes it clear that they do not need any romantic company. The song ends with the repeated plea for the person to get out of their way.
The lyrics of Make My Day may be interpreted in several ways, including a personal plea to someone to leave or a political statement about the need for change. The line "My my hey hey" may be a reference to the song "Hey Hey, My My" by Neil Young, which emphasises the importance of change and being open to new ideas. The song could also be seen as a modernisation of the phrase "make my day," which gained popularity after its use in the Clint Eastwood film Sudden Impact. The repetition of the phrase "get out of my way" further solidifies the song's message of wanting someone to depart. In summary, the song expresses a clear desire for someone or something to leave so that the singer can have a perfect day, either personally or politically.
