GREAT SONGS WITH GREAT OPENING LYRICS

You know the old saying "You never get a second chance to make a first impression"? Well, that's just as true in music as it is in life!

The first line of a track is vital. In a few words a songwriter needs to set up a story and a mood that will keep the listener involved. Great opening lyrics can quickly engage the listener for the whole length of the song, rouse and enthuse, pull you gently in or grab you unexpectedly or sometimes just sound really cool. Very few songs really grab the listener from the first line; it's a tough commission.

When I hear those first words I will always buy in if there is interest in the way a phrase is presented or if it connects with me emotionally. It's a great feeling to have those first words grab you and together with the right musical accompaniment keep you there.

Here are 50 tracks which have memorable opening lines in song. Enjoy!

Richard Anthony was one of the first original French rockers, recording and releasing his first 45rpm record in 1958.

In the early- to mid-sixties, he became a big “yé-yé” star in France and in Frenchspeaking countries, topping the charts several times. He also recorded his big hits in several other languages. He once was considered Johnny Hallyday’s #1 rival.

This is the LP he recorded in London in 1966. All songs are sung in English. Some of them are English versions of French songs he had hits with.

I have added the bonus tracks from the year 2000 CD release. They all are previously unreleased and they too were recorded in London in 1965 and 1966. Some are English language versions of songs that were hits in France by French or Frenchspeaking artists such as Christophe and Adamo.

7. Autumn Leaves (Les Feuilles Mortes) (3:25)
8. What Now My Love (Et Maintenant) (2:37)
9. Love Letters In The Sand (2:24)
10. A World Of My Own (2:51)
11. Only Love Can Break A Heart (2:25)
12. Take Five (Ne Boude Pas) (2:13)

CD bonus tracks

And how do you celebrate the end of the weed...er...week in Denver? Tokin' with Jimi. This uninstallment starts and ends with Jimi Hendrix ("Rainy Day, Dream Away" and "Still Rainin', Still Dreamin'." In between, we have all manner of weirdness - Sanford-Townsend Band, Exile, Pablo Cruise, Classix Nouveau, Ultravox, The Captain & Tennille, Tony Orlando & Dawn, Bob Luman, Foghat and much more. This is a bit longer than your average CD as the disc it was originally burned on got cracked and was reconstructed with just a couple of tracks I thought about and had to get in here. Oh, and say, has anybody seen my sweet gypsy Rose?

FLYING SAUCER ATTACK

Experimental space rock band that formed in Bristol, England in 1992.
David Pearce was the core member of the group, and Rachel Brook
(of Movietone, another Bristol band) was a member for most
of the band's lifetime.

The band were marked by quiet vocals and sheets of feedback with
similarities to contemporary shoegazing bands, or The Jesus and Mary Chain.
FSA were able to create a small but enthusiastic fanbase as one of the
more remarkable experimental bands of the day. The band were notable for
recording most of their output at home into a normal home stereo system,
avoiding recording studios as much as they could. This gave their music
a DIY feel and gave them the freedom to experiment as much as they wanted.

I've been teaching this week, so I haven't had much of a chance to say thanks for downloading and commenting on the Unproject compilations - Old DJ, Aging Child, Charlie Ramone, and others. Much appreciated.

After yesterday's post of three Twilights albums, here are the other two I have

1968-Once Upon A Twilight, in both stereo and mono, a concept album - my rip @ 320

https://www8.zippyshare.com/v/0BSa7JZz/file.html

1982-Twilight Time, a live recording - not my rip @ 320

https://www83.zippyshare.com/v/6UJruI4K/file.html

Also, here is Axiom, Glenn Shorrock's next band, with Brian Cadd (featured in one of Seamav's Flying Burrito Brothers posts a week or so back) and Don Mudie (both from The Groop - another great Aussie 60s pop band), Chris Stockley (from Cam-Pact, and later of The Dingoes) and Doug Lavery from The Valentines (with Bon Scott). This is where Brian Cadd's country rock reputation was started. Arkansas Grass was probably my favourite song on the radio in 1969.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axiom_(band)

The Axiom Archive [with the two tracks (both re-recordings) from 1971's If Only that were left off the compilation] (26 tracks, honest, RYP) - my rip (except for the 2 extras) @ 320

https://www17.zippyshare.com/v/PLOsVMsQ/file.html

After Axiom, Glenn Shorrock was a member of Esperanto (a U.K. based, international prog rock band), and then formed Little River Band with Graeham Goble (ex-Mississippi) and Beeb Birtles (ex-Zoot & Mississippi). Brian Cadd went on to a solo career in Australia, then went to the U.S. as a solo act & songwriter, and spent two years touring with The Flying Burrito Brothers. In 1993, Glenn and Brian reunited for an album, Blazing Salads.

I have recordings by all bands and solo artists mentioned, if there is any interest.

@Zigzagwanderer - I really wasn't expecting this compilation
to turn up, many failed attempts in the past. I have wanted
these particular songs for quite a while. Thank you very much!

@montysmusic - Thanks also for the offer of the same compilation,
if it is of even higher quality both would be welcome in my
collection.

Great stuff guys, very much appreciated.

I just returned from a 2 week trip to the Netherlands (cold & bleak!) and managed to score a few cds as usual.
At Concerto (great record shop in Amsterdam) I found this peculiar Nu-Blues compilation.
I never even heard of that term before, but it’s a pretty good collection, even scoring some big names such as R.L. Burnside, Tom Waits, Moby, Nick Cave, a.o. Only one missing is Little Axe as their kind of dub blues would have fitted right in!
https://www.allmusic.com/album/balling-the-jack-birth-of-nu-blues-mw0000219902

Ripped at 256 kbps (VBR) with scanned art work (I had to scan it in other to read the liner notes as the print is ridiculously small!)
Balling The Jack - The Birth Of The Nu-Blues 235.5 MB
https://mega.nz/#!nMU3yArD!_KB8-cVpJIE96JO1zEq_3FfHh2u3p2QsYgXKKOMfSuI

While searching for info about NuBlues I found a band with that name who released 2 albums:
Nublues – Dreams Of A Blues Man (2004)
Nublues – Snow On The Tracks (2008)
Anyone has those? Except for some dead links from 2009, I couldn’t find anything.

Butterboy, great concept for a comp, thanks!

But I think you left out one of the greatest first lines in rock - the opening to Patti Smith's Gloria:

"Jesus died for somebody's sins/But not mine"

I remember the first time I heard that, it was a shock and a revelation.

@graham - here are 2 of the 3 Nanci Griffith CDs you requested. I don't have "Revisited" - but we're all much better off with out it. It contains 3 disco dance (!!!) remixes of three of her songs, plus the originals. It is (quite understandably) very hard to find these days.

Here's the 2 other CDs you requested plus another HQ bootleg:

1999 The Dust Bowl Symphony

2012 Intersection

Butterboy: GREAT SONGS WITH GREAT OPENING LYRICS is a great idea for a comp!

Gummo: You are not wrong! Great suggestion.

@CourtoySerge
There are 15 (that I know of) CDs in that Sweet Soul Music set. Are you looking for all of them or just a specific 10?

If nobody comes up with them this weekend I will try and find my copies, rip and post over the allowed time period.

Graham said...

Well Once again Uncle Babka For all the Nanci Griffith uploads (given me a chance to replace some old casettes and fill those gaps in my collection.Do you have any 1980/1990 Glen Campbell you couls share?

60sbeatfan said...

@RnBWolf

I have most of Richard Anthony's CDs {the vinyl replica editions}. If you let me know whether you want FLAC or 320kbs mp3s I can start ripping and uploading them for you.

Cheers,
Laurie

Rhodb said...

Thanks Big Gray
The Twilights and Axiom both sensational groups in the respective era's

Glen Shorrock still one of the best entertainers going around in Oz

I would be interested in more of the same

Hi guys

Fabulous stuff here as always!

Can anyone help, please?

Many thanks guys

Butterboy... Great comp! Two songs immediately popped into mind ...

Joan Armatrading, Love & Affection: "I am not in love, but I'm open to persuasion"

Crazy World of Arthur Brown, Fire: "I am the God of hellfire! And I bring you, fire"

@Philo Thank you for the ongoing CMJ discs. Way too cool! Do you haver the entire run? I think there are like 120 of them.

cdelint said...

@RYP - love the Spoonful clip!

@Butterboy - never thought of a comp based around a reagt opening line but it makes sense once you've put it together. It's interesting how just reading those opening lines brings back the whole song in my head.

Anonymous said...

REQUEST: Live Bobby Fuller Four: Celebrity Night At PJ's (12-1965). I just opened my folder and saw that I only had disc one (it's two discs, apparently). If anyone has this one kicking around, I'd be grateful; the band sounds great on disc one! Great sound quality!

Thanks, in advance!

Yes I have the FBB CD with bonus tracks.

Aging Child said...

@ButterBoy, will you ever disappoint? Not yet, for sure - thank you for another great compilation, and some very interesting choices.

@JWDen: likewise inspired - teaming up Tony Orlando and Foghat on the same comp! This should be another interesting listen; thanks again.

@Monty's: thank you for the Pumpkins... a month after Hallowe'en.

@Philo: thank you for more from CMJ to add to my happy backlog.

@SingleGuy: you come through yet again, kind and generous sir!

@TZ: speaking of Glenn Shorrock, does anyone have the Little River Band's 1988 "Monsoon" in FLAC or 320 KBpS MP3?

Cheers!

Art58Koen said...

@TheSingleGuy45 - Many thanks for both Nublues!!!!

iggy said...

Special thanks to Butterboy for "opening lines" in rock'n'roll history. I've always been kind of partial to "Barefoot girl, sittin' on the hood of a Dodge, drinkin' warm beer in the soft summer rain" myself. Or, how 'bout "Let me tell the story; I can tell it all..."

Iggy

PS: Bruce and Robert Mitchum (just in case you wondered)

@Butterboy - great concept though I think Steve Miller and The Human League are going to be surprised.

My two cents:

David Bowie - Shaky threw a party that lasted all night, everybody drank a lot of something nice.

Mott The Hoople - Forgot my six-string razor and hit the sky, half way to Memphis 'fore I realized.

@ 96dbFreak
Totally agree that Steve Miller will be surprised. I did post an amendment earlier but it hasn't appeared here???? Apologies to Steve Miller.... Should have listed these words:
Some people call me the space cowboy yeah, Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice,'Cause I speak of the pompitous of love

But as for the Human League not sure what you mean.

Also thanks for a couple good suggestions.

The problem with this type of Comp is that there are so many great opening lines your always going to disappoint someone. Mabye I can do another volume of songs that were missed.

PS thank to ALL for mentioning their favorites... not included here

Butterboy,

How could you eave out the happy Mondays Kinky afro `Son, I'm 30,
I only went with your mother 'cause she's dirty

Diana Brill said...

@ Butterboy

GREAT comp(s) today, the stuff of old school mixtapes were made of & living proof that popular music got popular for a reason.

@ JWDen

I don't always dig the UnCompilations, but when I do - like wow! Keep 'em coming!

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

And now for something completely different: Psychoacoustic recordings from Syntonics Research. These recordings were intended to be played almost unnoticed as an acoustic environment, producing relaxation, stress relief, and cognitive performance enhancement. It was very much a 70s thing - and still works for me, when and as.

Psychologically Ultimate Seashore: Any house (or office) can be on the beach, just set your audio player to repeat the rather long track, originally issued as a 12".

Tintinnabulation: If I did not know better I would say this was a field recording of huge bells ringing softly at a Shinto or Buddhist Temple. But this is an early example of pure digital music, rendered on an IBM 360. Must be heard to be believed. Side two is a field recording - Dawn At New Hope, Pennsylvania.

Ultimate Thunderstorm / Gentle Rain In A Pine Forest: Syntonics claimed this one produced a subjective impression of lowered temperature, and an overall relaxation effect. I can confirm that.

Environments - Psychologically Ultimate Seashore - 1969
https://mega.nz/#!kmZCTKAA!Zinj_Kblk_I4i9Xkjddm81jRgDBKOteg_x9OM-iC-sk

Environments 2 - Tintinnabulation - 1970
https://mega.nz/#!I7wHxCoD!EdSMi4iju3dRSjaobbF44380d8rXglyg0SsV0BA2G3Y

Environments 4 - Ultimate Thunderstorm and Pine Forest - 1974

(note: there seems to be some discrepancy in the numbers & dates in the uploaded files, the ones shown here are correct - I think)

(note II: This post replaces an earlier one I made where I put in the same download link for two different files. I hate it when that happens... thx to g8rrick for pointing it out!)

Butterboy,

Another great opening line for volume #3:
"Wasted and wounded, it ain't what the moon did, I've got what I paid for now"
– Tom Traubert's Blues, Tom Waits

Thanks for the great comps!

Aging Child said...

@Koukouleika: nice quote!

@Diana: thank you for these 1970s-ish psychoacoustics. I still have my Baba Ram Dass and Robert Pirsig, so these will be great background... what's called "white noise" nowadays, right? My father's own choice - I still have it, somewhere - was an hour-long CD of all the church bells in Lübeck sounding. I haven't had the nerve to rip it and upload it here...

Cheers!
