Public Image Ltd. Seattle

Uploaded by: belsenghost
Video Description:
http://www.youtube.com/group/PiL
Personnel:
Vox - John Lydon
Guitar - John McGeoch
Guitar / Various - Lu Edmonds
Bass - Alan Dias
Drums - Bruce Smith
This was the first release from the 'new' PiL. A line up which would last in various forms for another five years. 'Seattle' was written on tour while the band were in Seattle, apparently inspired by how boring the town was.
Quotes:
Seattle is unusual, in that we recorded it on tour, when we had some days off. The days off were in Seattle. Clever huh?
- John Lydon, 'Plastic Box' sleevenotes 1999

Sex pistols were way better. The only good thing about PIL songs is the tune. The lyrics suck. It's the same thing over and over and over again.

On some of his videos, John looks uncomfortably self-conscious. Despite his in-yer-face image. But he looks cool here. And it's bloody good song, Johnny. Nice work.

I went to a PIL concert in November '87 in Detroit (Happy? Tour), and I believe they opened the show with this song..will never forget that show. I was always dressing like John back in them days.

I have to agree with him. Seattle is hella boring

Okay, I kinda like this song now, but I still think the Pistols were way better. I'm not one of those "punk of die" people, but I dunno, I'm so used to listening to the pistols, i guess. PIL is pretty good. And yeah, sid didn't sing in most of the songs. My mistake

Hmm. Not to give ... ( 2 weeks ago by Krauthamster)

Hmm. Not to give Spin (or was it Rolling Stone?) too much cred, but folks were saying every (or most) of the other of the early punk bands (incl. the other 3 mems of the Pistols were laid back and hated Sid, who actually earned the name vicious by being a shit to people. So to the person who gave stigonbass a minus, look a little deeper, hm?

I used to dig this ... ( 1 week ago by spilwacky)

I used to dig this song until I learnt it was Johny's way of ragging on Seattle as boring. Well, Johny is an expert on boring-his stiff snot covered hair, and squeeky angry voice and attitude havent changed in over 20 years --- yawn ---- booooooriiiiiiing.

Spilwacky. You learned wrong. This song is not even about Seattle. It was written in Seattle while they were on tour. It is actually about some slums in the suburbs of London, england so you are way off on what you learned. Not even on the right continent.

eh, green river was majority mudhoney, and really, after hearing the way lydon treated other bands, he deserved getting his backstage room trashed and PA snapped out. just read "Our Band Could Be Your Life" if you dont believe me on how much of a jerk lydon was.

this song reminds me of being 16 and smoking out my bedroom window listening to this song as huge snowflakes fell, almost to the beat of the song. palaces, barricades, threats......ace!
