the topic title refers to song lines/lyrics (which are the same thing) and i most often do not care about lyrics because they always say mundane things (according to me) compared to what is "said" by the musical iteration of an abstract idea.

music can say more than words can ever convey. just like "a picture says a thousand words", "music says a million words". i have little interest in lyrics, and i am mostly interested in the structure of music.

so i will post something that i have posted at least twice before on this site, and i implore someone to listen to the music and disregard the fact that it has no lyrics.

it is the most accurate rendition of how i feel when i am out and about in society in my short jaunts away from my home. i think that the caption of the song "g-spot tornado" accurately describes my sensory overload when even pleasant sensations are all forcing their way into my consciousness (when i am not ready for them (like being tickled to a point where one screams in agony and begs the the ticklers to desist)).

just overwhelming is the thrust of this song for me. it is non verbal.


I think I'd be reluctant to venture out into society even for short jaunts if the experience resembled that piece of music, b9. The closest I ever come to experiencing the sensations evoked by the music would be in a very large shopping mall during the pre-Christmas rush, being jostled by crowds, surrounded by signs and lights, deafened by jangly Christmas carols and people spruiking over microphones and smelling the greasy odours of the food courts. These things don't overwhelm me, as I'm not autistic, but I find them unpleasant, so I try to avoid exposing myself to them.

there are two sides to the song "g-spot tornado". one side is the high pitched external stimulii, and the other is the attempt to assemble it in my mind which is iterated by the lower pitched harmonic stitching of the higher pitched stimulii together to attempt to make a song out of it.

it is a brilliant piece of music, and although zappa was not autistic (i guess), i am impressed that someone can compose such a sonic recreation of what is in my mind when i am in a precarious condition while i am almost overwhelmed by sensations that are rendered in a societal setting . i particularly relate to the focus on irrelevant (to non autistic people) pictorial representations of the musical discourse.

you are lucky to be able to allocate the sensations you experience to some category. i can not really understand my sensations and relegate them to any category and so i am a victim of perpetual surprise.

i do not enter crowds because they are like quicksand that swallows me and makes it hard for me to get back home with a solid mind.

You can bruise my pride
Bust my face
Scatter my rights
All over the place
You can take the bread
From of my plate
But you can't break me!

Lock us out
Chain the gates
Put black shirts in
With dogs and mace
We'll hold the line
Won't step away
'Cause you can't break me!

Chorus:
I belong
You belong
We belong to the Union

Don't count me out
When I'm on the floor
We'll win again
We've won before
The streets will ring
With a mighty roar
'Cause you can't break me!

Stocks rise up
On workers' backs
Profits soar
While you hand out the sack
And boardroom bullies
Bloated and fat
But you can't break me!

Seen Australia sold
To mates offshore
Backroom deals
And shonky law
The day has come
Say "No more!"
'Cause you can't break me!

Chorus:
I belong
You belong
We belong to the Union
I belong
You belong
We belong to the Union

We won't turn away
If you dare us to fight
I swear
I'll never lay down and die

I'm in the union mate
Got a right to belong
We'll be back
Millions strong
Women and men
United as one
'Cause you can't break me!

Chorus:
I belong
You belong
We belong to the Union
I belong
You belong
We belong to the Union
I belong
You belong
We belong to the Union

i want to divest myself of a lovers interest because i find her too much of a chore to sustain. i therefore think this song is pertinent to my attitude toward her so this song is apt.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MG-0BWLybIQ[/youtube]

i play the piano (in an uneducated way) and i have added my own piano track to the song because i liked it so much and here is a version of the song with my piano expression mixed with it .

http://www.soundclick.com/player/single ... i&newref=1

for some reason (i think it is because i am not a paid subscriber) soundclick truncated the song and so i will post the rest now.

http://www.soundclick.com/player/single ... i&newref=1

i am more happy to provide musical embellishments to this song that describes my urge to leave sonia's attention than i am to discuss it with sonia herself.

i am not a good musician by professional standards.

If you need me
I'll be downstairs
With the shop vac
You can call but I probably won't hear you
Because it's loud with the shop vac on

If I can find you now, things will get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yeah.

They say the odds against me, are crooked and impossible
Like I was born with a hole in my heart is an obstacle

I was left to die by the doctors, in the Children's Hospital
But I never lose hope, success is psychological

The world is volatile and the street is my education
They said I would never be sh*t, but now I sit and reminisce

Ignorance is venemous, and it murders the soul
Spreading like a virus running rampant, but out of control

Trying to fight the system from inside, eventually corrupts you
But thats what you get when you put a corporation above you

And it's the people that love you that seem to hurt you the most
Sometimes when they die you find yourself cursing their ghost

But you make success, nobody delivers your fate
Sometimes you give and you take

Because even though we survived through the struggle that made us
We still look at ourselves through the eyes of people that hate us

I used to wonder about people who don't believe in themselves
But then I saw the way that they portrayed us to everyone else

They cursed us, then only see the worst in ourselves
blind to the fact the whole time we were hurting ourselves

So if the solution has never been to look in yourself
How is it that you expect to find it anywhere else...

well this is nothing i contributed to, and i only identify with it because.....i do.

i very much like the song, and the video clip is not that good but whatever. just listen with all your ears and do not look with your eyes when you want to feel music.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ph89xbv0Kw[/youtube]

there was a much better video on youtube with wild animals and nature with this song as it's carrier, but it is gone now and this is the best that is left (according to me(i am advised to add)).

this is "a little help from my friends". in my idea of construction that night played it.
