Reverend Jax Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 How the fuck does Heroine not make the cut for top 5 VU songs? Good call with Sister Ray though. I would have included White Light/White Heat too, but that's forgivable. But not having Heroine on there, that's a travesty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TulipO Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 Jax, the reason Heroin didn't make it is because they break down into feedback in that song. Lyrically and musically it's fucking fantastic, BUT I get irritated and can't listen anymore when the feedback comes in. Otherwise, I SHOULD have included White Light/White Heat. Can I ammend mine? Because I would put that in place of "I'm waiting for my man" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 Yes, Heroine does break into heavy distortion, btu that's the point. The whole songs is supposed to be a musically representation of the experience of taking heroine, hence the drumming like a heartbeat and the craziness of the distortion. Haven't used heroine myself, so I can't say if it's accurate, but that's the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TulipO Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 Oh I agree completely, and that's why it's musically brilliant. Only problem:Universalizability. I'm NOT ALWAYS in the mood for it. The rest of VU I can listen to all the time. It's ALL good. Heroin takes a certain type of mood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
