Television might very well be the best band alive. Once you see them live your life changes completely.

He's definitely intoning like David Thomas of Pere Ubu in this song. If you love Television you might like Sonic Youth ... at times they sound like a reincarnation ("Incinerate", "Antenna", "Hyperstation").

If you don't believe me I guess I'd say take a listen to Pere Ubu's "Sentimental Journey", "Make Hey", maybe "Rhapsody In Pink".

The only song on the album they weren't playing when they toured on it. Great track though. IMO Verlaine is doing an imitation of Pere Ubu's David Thomas, who he thinks of as Crocus Behemoth from days they played the same clubs occasionally. I remember an interview years back when Verlaine was challenged to name a contemporary he DID think was interesting, and he said "that guy Crocus Behemoth" (sic).

Exactly... not a lot of people like or have even given this album a chance. It's real nice.
