    Could all Republic of Loose fans please verify that following are lyrics from their songs...


    "Go get the fu** outta bed and make a kick ass giraffe or something"

    "I dont think its a crime to punish you cos youre an idiot"

    Be a big help.

    Thanks

    Jumpa

    I'd have to go back and listen to be sure to be sure. But I think that's pretty much about right.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,514 ✭✭✭Rollo Tamasi


    fantastic lyrics from a fantastic band....almost Platoesque! They're right up there with the Red Hot Chilli Farters for stumpid and meaningless lyrics.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,739 ✭✭✭Jello


    Do they ever play a gig sober?

    Oh and maybe try the Music Forum.

    Tomb of the Juice was a much, much better album :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,890 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    yeah was class alright, but id put them on a par with one another. Not a lover of "The Translation" off Aaagh! or "Somethin in the Water" off Tomb of Juice

    Of course the real test is how many people have 'How Johnny Tricked the Devil' ;)

    See it live. Then you'll understand :)

    You're damn right there. It was almost a spiritual moment for me. Well, as near as I've ever had.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,046 ✭✭✭Dustaz


    Yeah, its such a shame they dont really do it live anymore.

    I understand they are pimping newer songs but the last few times ive seen them its been a cover for the last song.

    Maybe when they start playing bigger venues regularly and have to extend their set list, all will be restored.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 16,698 Mod ✭✭✭✭Silverfish


    I've not been to see them since 'Rugged' fell off the playlist somewhere.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,890 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    Never saw them live so cant comment...seems like Im missing out!

    Jumpa, we may head for a live gig (Wolly might come if he finds a 20euro note on the ground!) soon, list of gigs on their site...

    holy crap, thats a long time ago.

    Things have changed mightily since then. Well worth having another look.

    I have all their cds mind, I've heard where its going, but I'm definitely going to go see them at some stage soon.

    Rugged though, that's some song.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,890 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    Do you know where ya can get that song lads? I only have Tomb of Juice and Aaagh albums....


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 16,698 Mod ✭✭✭✭Silverfish


    Its not on any of their albums, so you get a time machine, jump in it, go back about three years, see them live, and they'll play it.

    Unfortunately, they weren't called Republic of Loose, so it could be tricky to find. I stood on a beetle last week, so they mightn't even be called what they were called because of the ripples in the space time continuum thingie.

    Without a doubt they are the crappest band to come out of the Irish music scene in a LONG time.

    "Comeback girl" .....lyrical genius, must have taken all of 5 mins to write that song, and that includes a tea break :rolleyes:

    "Go get the fu** outta bed and make a kick ass giraffe or something"

    "I dont think its a crime to punish you cos youre an idiot"


    no its "go get the f*** outta bed, go fix me a drink or somethin"

    second line correct


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,374 ✭✭✭Gone West


    ROL are the shít.
    They played in college and trashed their room ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 382 ✭✭Trip Hazard


    I just wanna put my opinion out there

    Republic of Loose are ****ing class, a brilliant band in my opinion, Dont have Aargh!! yet but tomb of the juice is a brilliant ablum. Some of there lyrics are class check out my signature...
