the best song ever written and performed by humans
teen angst never summed up more succinctly than the chorus to "My Pal" by God
and that there singer? 17 at the time. damn, man
to be a partyhead
something I could never do
I don't like no one
except for you
you're my only friend
you don't even like me
come on over to my house
I got a plan for you
you're not gonna come
but I want you to
you're my only friend
you don't even like me
.......being the inane grumblings of a decrepit old punk rocker... whining about life with chronic fatigue, music I'm listening to, books I'm reading and random thoughts about how shit the government are.......
Real 'shivers down your spine' song. Never got the record when it came out, just had it on the end of a John Peel Show compilation tape, finally managed to get it when it was re-issued a while back. Such a raw affecting vocal...
