    • Oh well if it's back to life..

      My Name is Jack by Manfred Mann
      G U T

      There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

        • The Second Dream of the High Tension Line Stepdown Transformer - La Monte Young

          Still and Moving Lines of Silence in Families of Hyperbolas - Alvin Lucier

          Demonic Descent of the Cognoscenti While Shouting Over Cocktails - Harry Partch

          ...nothing to do with Jack, but I thought I'd share them with you. Genuine titles

          Edit. Here's another by Harry Partch which might be more relevant: "Transmutation of Detectives on the Trail of a Culprit"

          • I don't know about Jack but I certainly like this JtR song!

            Jack the Ripper x AFI

            Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
            This my opinion and to the best of my knowledge, that is, if I'm not joking.

                  • 'Rip her to Shreds' by Blondie. Perhaps he didn't like ' Only a violet I plucked from Mother's grave' being sung over and over again, and so...!

                        surely there can be only ONE.

                        This version has the lamp post for atmosphere

                          '..that line forms on the right, dear..'
                          From Voltaire writing in Diderot's Encyclopédie:
                          "One demands of modern historians more details, better ascertained facts, precise dates, , more attention to customs, laws, commerce, agriculture, population."

                          • "I Come With Knives"

                            I looked for songs with "knife" in the lyrics, and came across this, "I Come with Knives", written by Christopher Corner, recorded by IAMX. Possibly would have been JTR's theme if he was "working" today. Don't know the translation of the German stanza, sorry.

                            I Come with Knives
                            By IAMX
                            Kinder und sterne küssen und verlieren sich
                            Greifen leise meine hand und führen mich
                            Die traumgötter brachten mich in eine landschaft
                            Schmetterlinge flatterten durch meine seele
                            The paradox or our minds
                            Too much to believe, too much to deny
                            You fool me again to quiet my pride
                            But I’m a human, I come with knives
                            I never promised you an open heart or charity
                            I never wanted to abuse your imagination
                            I come with knives
                            I come with knives
                            And agony
                            To love you
                            Kinder und sterne küssen und verlieren sich
                            Greifen leise meine hand und führen mich
                            Die traumgötter brachten mich in eine landschaft
                            Schmetterlinge flatterten durch meine seele
                            In der mitternacht.
                            The monotony
                            And the rising tide
                            Is under my skin, is crawling inside
                            Adrenaline to rewire my mind
                            I'm only human, I come with knives
                            I never promised you an open heart or charity
                            I never wanted to abuse your imagination
                            I come with knives
                            I come with knives
                            And agony
                            I come with knives
                            I come with knives
                            To love you
                            And agony
                            To love you
                            With agony
                            I come with knives
                            With agony
                            To love you
                            Kinder und sterne küssen und verlieren sich
                            Greifen leise meine hand und führen mich
                            Die traumgötter brachten mich in eine landschaft
                            Schmetterlinge flatterten durch meine seele
                            In der mitternacht [x2]

                              Meh. Sounds like something from a threepenny opera.
