Velvet Crush – “This Life Is Killing Me” (Audio)
‘Teenage Symphonies to God’
550 Music/Epic – 1994
*Velvet Crush – “This Life Is Killing Me” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5uiVBLuqGk // https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teenage_Symphonies_to_God // “‘Teenage Symphonies to God’ is the second album by the American band Velvet Crush, released in 1994. The title of the album is a reference to Brian Wilson’s description of the music he was creating for ‘Smile’. ‘Teenage Symphonies to God’ had sold around 20,000 copies by the end of the 1990s. The band supported the album by opening for the Jesus and Mary Chain and Mazzy Star on a North American tour.” This song was on a CMJ CD sampler, I couldn’t recall the name but I clicked thru the tracks and knew it was this. Their drummer was Ric Menck – who I bugged for an autograph outside the Doug Fir, asking if Matthew Sweet was gonna come out to meet n greet. He didn’t :(*

#DeepFocus: The Smiths – “Shakespeare’s Sister” (2008 Remaster // Audio)
‘Shakespeare’s Sister b/w What She Said’
Rough Trade – 18 March 1985
*The Smiths – “Shakespeare’s Sister” (2008 Remaster) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ke07Gojr5aI // https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakespeare%27s_Sister_(song) // “Shakespeare’s Sister” is a song by the English rock band the Smiths. Released in March 1985, it reached No. 26 in the UK Singles Chart. The title refers to a section of Virginia Woolf’s feminist essay A Room of One’s Own in which she argues that if William Shakespeare had had a sister of equal genius, as a woman she would not have had the opportunity to make use of it. Released as a standalone single, “Shakespeare’s Sister” was a relative disappointment commercially, reaching number 26 in the UK charts. Marr reflected, “It didn’t surprise me that a song like ‘Shakespeare’s Sister’ didn’t get in the charts. It was a very arch record to release at that time. Quite audacious, a bit mad. That’s why I loved it.” Morrissey, meanwhile, attributed the underperformance to Rough Trade’s insufficient promotion of the single, claiming the label “released ‘Shakespeare’s Sister’ with a monstrous amount of defeatism”.
