The Brian Jonestown Massacre - Spacegirl

The track "Spacegirl" from "Spacegirl and Other Favorites"

I hadn't seen this on Youtube yet and it's one of my favorite BJM songs.

i wrote this waiting for elise to get off work..in the upper haight busking.then i tracked it that night on the otari 8trk sempti with six da-88s all in the control booth at the compound...

[ausgaze]

5:48 is when it just goes next level. Anton you're a king mate.

[jognjackson]

You know, the strangest thing happened to me on the way to outer space today...

[LizardHendwin]

That's making me so high before i take my drugs...This is just the greatest band ever ! 

[seanaaronpauliejacks]

50 years from now, this band will be a legend

[frankiedarko]

I was in love, I was staring in the sun
I was living lost in your eyes
I was alone, I was dreaming...

[celestewilliams]

My god, I am currently listening to this at 23:11 - 3 times in a row, and probably 500 times since I first discovered it, in amongst a nugget of BJTM songs...2018 I saw them - in my top 3 bands of that year.

Spiritualized
Public Service Broadcasting
Brian Jonestown Massacre

In no particular order.

In standard: 022230 002230 022230 002220
then 022230 022220 022200 022220 (all just movement down and up B string)

[brenan]

what a fucking life to live. thank you anton

[ManicMechanic]

I just wanna shoegaze and groove with BJM

[greeneups]

@TaylorWarhol yes indeed, so many parts, so much time must have been put into making it. And it is one of the best BJM songs, and proly the most under rated

[greeneups]

I totally agree. dude have u ever been to a BJM concert? I havent but would do many things so i could!

[celestewilliams]

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

[julieswahn]

This relaxes me to the point of having a little spittle in the corner of my mouth.

[brucewillis]

Godless by the Dandy's rips this off hard... I love that Anton emerged as the true Rock and Roller out of the two of them. And yes, the comparison is a puerile undertaking, but whatever. History is written by the victor.

[greeneups]

Dude, yes!!! They are playing in Boston on june 8, but it 18+, so I wouldnt be allowed in.... and its like 7 hours away.... But it it wasnt so far away, i would get fake ID's and go.
