Works 3/Races 2

10. Man on the Prowl
11. Thank God It's Christmas

10. Drowse

Man on the Prowl and Drowse (wwwwhhhhhhaaaaaaattt??? Dammit, people!) were voted off in the second round of The Works and first round of A Day at the Races, respectively.

I Go Crazy received considerably less votes than less time. I hope you guys know I was joking earlier when I said voting for it was banned. You can vote for it if you want. We just won't be friends anymore if you do.

Also, on a similar note, I really want to know what some people don't like about that song. I'm dead serious about this one. Someone just tell me. Thanks!

Anyway, here are the new polls. Pick your LEAST favorites, if you can.

Drowse... What the heck

Drowse...Roger's best 70's song by far.

What a shame Drowse has gone so early! Personally, Roger's songs with Queen in the 70's are my favorites more than his 80's or solo material.

Drowse?! Fuck off, really. Shame on all of you who voted it out... :)

For me, this song works on several levels...
Musically, it's like you are going in and out of a dream, erm... "drowsy".
Lyrically, it's very straight to the point and nostalgic... I don't know why, but they last lines really get to me...

"Thinking it right, doing it wrong
It's easier from an arm chair
Waves of alternatives watch at my sleepiness
I'll have my eggs pouched for breakfast, I guess"

The last lines paint this scene of a bored, spoiled, rich kid, who couldn't be more different from our narrator (Roger)... or maybe it's himself at a later stage of his life looking back to the ol' days when life was tough but fun.

I LOVE DROWSE
Its the sad eyes goodbye yesterday moments i remember
its the week kneed blah blah parting i recall
its the hazier day andthe easerie lays
its the storing allgoodtimes balah blah

out here in the streets
blah blah
half of the time
than we did in the pool hall
down town bubblegum bums

watching the night life the lights and the fun

never wanted to be the boy next door always thought id be something more
it aint easy for a small town boy
it aint easy at all
thinking it right
doing it wrong

thoughts of my sleepiness
..........

Please only vote once.

I figured there would be some outrage to Drowse's early exit, but I didn't realize it would be so unanimous. That's getting me wondering...

Yet, there's not much I can do about it right now, so oh well.

it is hard life
