too bad that they stop touring till 2006. I never saw them live yet, but I´m willing to wait. tongue.gif

I love them too. They were in my sig before I changed it. Who's your favorite Brian? I like Black Market Music era Brian and Crossdresser Brian.

placebo is love.
devonevoabevon

garbage
I love Placebo too.
What are your fav Placebo songs? I love Protect Me From What I Want, This Picture, Burger Queen, Every You Every Me,... and many
stinkstiefel
Brian is awesome...I like each era he was/ is going through. wink.gif

hmm...very difficult to choose some songs since all of them are just great. but I think Without You I´m Nothing, Special Needs, Protect Me From What I Want, Burger Queen, Pure Morning, Ask For Answers, Black Eyed, Blue American, Passive Aggressive, Teenage Angst, Every You Every Me...oh well if I don´t stop here I´ll end up naming all of them. tongue.gif
but I can say that Without You I´m Nothing is my favourite record. which one is yours?
Starcleaner
I heart placebo. I was listening to them today.
comradestripe
Over-marketed unnecessity (which is probably not a word). Without You I'm Nothing is a great album, but the rest is really not.

yeah...they´re even more than that. tongue.gif I love all of them. Placebo, Black Market Music and Sleeping With Ghosts are amazing records to me as well. wink.gif
Feedums
I really love Placebo. It's such a different sort of music than the regular alternative. You Don't Care About Us is lovely. And Brian Molko is one of the most beautiful men I've even seen. He's beautiful because he ISN'T. If that makes any sense. Besides, he's got such an amazing, fascinating voice.
garbage
what about fav Placebo albums?
I like Sleeping With Ghost best.
Ava Adore
i heard a live song by them on the radio..
brian goesa
"THIS SONG IS STUPID< ITS A STUPID SONG, YOU SHOULD ALL WRITE A SONG LIKE THIS ONE ADN TRIPLE J WILL PLAY IT, ANY RADIO WILL PLAY IT"

i thought it was funny.. he said his song was stupid (duh!). im not sure what spng it was though
craig_is_crazy..so_am_i

Well, that's a useful contribution to a thread about Placebo.

Black Market Music was terrible. Slave To The Wage was catchy, but apart from that...

Placebo are great smile.gif I've seen them twice now, once at Spendour last year and once in Sydney at the beginning of this year. They're definitely worth going to see when they next tour. Apparently they've already started work on their next album, can't wait biggrin.gif .
My fave album by them so far is Black Market Music. Fave songs = Without You I'm Nothing and Hemoglobin.
bazoo

God yeah. I remember that song they had about a black man hanging from a tree. That was hilarious.


And that song with a rap in it. Oh dear.

Isn't Brian Molko famous for being an absolute cock anyway?

"Without You I'mNothing" was a decent enough album though, especially the title track.

Yes.

And I'd forgotten about the rap. Hahaha. Haemoglobin was that terrible hanging song. It was political in the same way as a jam tart. The lyrics: http://www.alwaysontherun.net/placebo.htm#t10.

"I was hanging from a tree
Unaccustomed to such violence
Jesus looking down on me
I'm prepared for one big silence"

That's surely meant to be a joke. Surely. "Unaccustomed to such violence" - well, you're only hanged once, sonny. "I'm prepared for one big silence"! Is it possible to trivialise death any more than that?

It's also clearly Brian Molko trying to express how alone he feels being the only man daring enough to wear lipstick in a world run by suited men, or something, but disguising it behind some attempt at an empassioned song about black civil rights.

From Blue American:

"I wrote this novel just for Mom
For all the Mommy things she's done
For all the times she showed me wrong
For all the times she sang God's song
And I say thank you Mom
Hello Mom
Thank you Mom
Hi Mom"

This genuinely made me laugh out loud.

Spite And Malice was the one with the rap.

Everyone wants the revolution to consist of "dope, guns (and) fucking in the streets". Oh, wait a second...
