Brian Eno - Here Come The Warm Jets Poll ~ Oh no Oh no Oh no Oh no Oh no!

Spider and I sit watching the sky
On a world without sound
We knit a web to catch one tiny fly
For our world without sound
We sleep in the mornings
We dream of a ship that sails away
A thousand miles away.

At least as of a few years ago — he talked about it on the Colbert Report and elsewhere — he was getting together with friends to sing on a weekly basis, an exercise in pure pleasure that he meant to keep fun and fresh by saying no recordings allowed. I don't think not doing something for public consumption necessarily means that he undervalues it. Maybe yes maybe no.

He loves singing! He does gospel, etc. Like this!

Just clearly he loves doing it more than he loves releasing albums with vocals and lyrics.

Some of them are old but it would help if you could smile
To earn a crooked sixpence you'll walk many crooked miles
And as you do, remember me, remember me.

one of my favorite bit of Eno lyrics.

"Driving Me Backwards" from the June 1, 1974 release is far superior to that on the proper album -- Ayers' cascading basslines add some real punch to the track.

favorite Eno lyric is still "Splish splash, I was raking in the cash/The biology of purpose keeps my nose above the surface BUHHHHH"

It was his 70th birthday today, and I'm listening to the Warm Jets record and thinking, as much as I love his ambient work,that I would love to hear more of his singing and (lyrical) songwriting. That said, the 6-disc ambient set he released this year is great too.

Happy Brian Eno Day, all.

Happy belated birthday, Brian Peter George St John le Baptiste de la Salle Eno!

Belated happy birthday, Brian!

so this was news to me

"Brian Eno recounts how he (allegedly) pissed in 'Fountain,' Marcel Duchamp's famous urinal, in his 1995 diary A Year with Swollen Appendices"

warm jets jokes must have been going on for decades already?

Yeah hard to get inb4 anything here, this album title famously refers to piss and eno has two separate piss anecdotes in his diary, he’s a piss guy

Yeah I am new to Eno’s sexual proclivities sorry

Damn it, I knew I shouldn't have changed my dn this morning.

The album cover features a photograph of a woman peeing!

"Driving Me Backwards" is my fave (not sure if I voted here). never knew it wasn't rated/liked by others. and although I do love it Warm Jets is my least fave of the '4 vocal albums'.

as for sex, "ooo what to do in a tiny canoe" (Backwater) is my fave playful Eno sex lyric

Correct answer is some of them ate old

brutal
