Propaganda: the band, especially Robert, has such a dark beauty to it, especially when photographed or even more through their music. I think they way they write and sing songs is probably the hottest thing about them, a very sweetly delicate, but often miserable, tone in the guitar; Robert's soft, breathy voice, and their lyrics. they are a very nice sounding and looking group, in short

So I saw Echo and the Bunnymen twice this year...

[tragic-vaudeville]

fun fact!! did you know that Will Sergeant (the guitarist of Echo & the Bunnymen) released Strawberry Switchblade's single, Trees and Flowers, under his own record label?

Anyways, I like to imagine that at some point Rose and Jill goofed around with Will by dressing him up like them! :3

Decided to tell you all some things:

Rowland’s guitar sound - Screaming in agony and misery or seriously full of rage

Johnny’s guitar sound - crying, if not crying then ecstatic euphoria

Danny’s guitar sound - alien experimental or anxiety attack

Will’s guitar sound - normal, almost, sometimes there’s a shiny echo to it

Who else should I explain? I can do other instruments too.

Lyrics

She floats like a swan Grace on the water Lips like sugar Lips like sugar

Just when you think you've caught her She glides across the water She calls for you tonight To share this moonlight

You'll flow down her river She'll ask and you'll give her

Lips like sugar Sugar kisses Lips like sugar Sugar kisses

She knows what she knows I know what she's thinking Sugar kisses Sugar kisses

Just when you think she's yours She's flown to other shores To laugh at how you break And melt into this lake

You'll flow down her river But you'll never give her

Lips like sugar Sugar kisses Lips like sugar Sugar kisses

She'll be my mirror Reflect what I am Loser and winner The king of Siam

And my Siamese twin Alone in the river Mirror kisses Mirror kisses

Lips like sugar Sugar kisses Lips like sugar Sugar kisses

Lips like sugar Sugar kisses Lips like sugar Sugar kisses

Lips like sugar Sugar kisses Lips like sugar Sugar kisses

Songwriters: Leslie Thomas Pattinson / Ian Stephen McCulloch / William Sergeant / Pete De Freitas
