Manic street preachers, feeder

[Jillianne]

Does anyone know them, I love the manics and feeder

Manics best songs are IMO

"I you tolorate this, your children will be next" (about the spanish revolution)

"Ocean spray" about one of the band members mother dying;

"It's easy to breathe, it's easy to grieve

To breathe only air where life should be

It's easy to laugh, it's easy to cry

To cry so so hard that it can't be denied

Oh please stay awake

And then we can drink some Ocean Spray

Oh please stay awake

And then we can drink some Ocean Spray"

"Grace of god"

"4st. 7lbs" about anorexia

" eat too much to die

And not enough to stay alive

I'm sitting in the middle waiting

Days since I last pissed

Cheeks sunken and despaired

So gorgeous sunk to six stone

Lose my only remaining home

See my third rib appear

A week later all my flesh disappears

Stretching taut, cling-film on bone

I'm getting better

Karen says I've reached my target weight

Kate and Emma and Kristin know it's fake

Problem is diet's not a big enough word

I wanna be so skinny that I rot from view

I want to walk in the snow

And not leave a footprint

I want to walk in the snow

And not soil its purity

Stomach collapsed at five

Lift up my skirt my sex is gone

Naked and lovely and 5st. 2

May I bud and never flower

My vision's getting blurred

But I can see my ribs and I feel fine

My hands are trembling stalks

And I can feel my breasts are sinking

Mother trys to choke me with roast beef

And sits savouring her sole Ryvitta

That's the way you're built my father said

But I can change, my cocoon shedding

I want to walk in the snow

And not leave a footprint

I want to walk in the snow

And not soil its purity

Kate and Kristin and Kit Kat

All things I like looking at

Too weak to fuss, too weak to die

Choice is skeletal in everybody's life

I choose my choice, I starve to frenzy

Hunger soon passes and sickness soon tires

Legs bend, stockinged I am Twiggy

And I don't mind the horror that surrounds me

Self-worth scatters, self-esteem's a bore

I long since moved to a higher plateau

This discipline's so rare so please applaud

Just look at the fat scum who pamper me so

Yeh 4st. 7, an epilogue of youth

Such beautiful dignity in self-abuse

I've finally come to understand life

Through staring blankly at my navel"

And "dezign for life"

and my fave songs by feeder

"child in you"

"close your eyes and drift away to someplace new wehre the skies are blue brings back the child in you"

"Come back around"

"7 days in the sun"

"piece by piece

does anyone like these bands?
