| Bearing in mind Paul Jacobs worked with Jim, on the 1977 workshop, every time I listen to 'Modern Girl', always think that it was written with 'Neverland' in mind. The great lyrics really conjure up an apocalyptic future (Obsidian), where the singer of the song (Peter) is desperately yearning for some sort of hope & life, with the girl (Wendy) he loves: 'Somewhere just between the past, and something dawning new, there's a break in the chain, a skip in the clock, girl that's where I'm gonna find you' 'There's a clash on the border, a flame in the sky, girl that's where you're gonna find me' 'Can't ya hear the planet groanin' like a broken down machine, rusted with the guilty tears of fallen Kings and Queens' 'We're the son and the daughter on a new freeway, laughin' while the road maps blow away' I can really imagine Peter singing this to, or about Wendy? Check out the link for a great live version, especially the solo from Bob Kulick (BTW - Meat was fantastic in the 80's and early 90's)! | |
