The Temperance Movement - "Ziggy Stardust" (David Bowie cover)
Now Ziggy played guitar
Jamming good with Weird and Gilly
And The Spiders from Mars
He played it left hand
But made it too far
Became the special man
Then we were Ziggy's band
Ziggy really sang
Screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo
Like some cat from Japan
He could kill 'em by smiling
He could leave 'em to hang
He came on so loaded, man,
Well hung, snow white tan
So where were the spiders
While the fly tried to break our bones?
Just the beer light to guide us
So we bitched about his fans
And should we crush his sweet hands?
Oh yeah
Ziggy played for time
Jiving us that we were voodoo
The kids were just crass
He was The Nazz
With God-given ass
He took it all too far
But boy, could he play guitar
Making love with his ego
Ziggy sucked up into his mind (ah)
Like a leper messiah
When the kids had killed the man
I had to break up the band
Oh yeah
Ooh
Ziggy played guitar

Οι The Temperance Movement μας έρχονται από την Σκωτία. Δημιουργήθηκαν προ επταετίας κι έχουν κυκλοφορήσει τρεις "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους ("The Temperance Movement" - 2013, "White Bear" - 2016, "A Deeper Cut" - 2018) και δύο EPs ("Pride" - 2012, "Live in Session" - 2013). Η δισκογραφική τους επιστροφή μετά από μία τριετία αφορά συλλογή. Τιτλοφορείται "Covers & Rarities" και (όπως μαρτυρά ο τίτλος) αφορά σε διασκευές (πέντε) και δικά τους "σπάνια" τραγούδια (ή εκδόσεις αυτών).
Δελτίο τύπου: «We are delighted to announce our first The Temperance Movement release in over three years! Put together with the help of guitarist and founding member Paul Sayer, 'Covers & Rarities' is a treasured collection of rare and unheard gems, some of which have never been available before on CD or vinyl.
Alongside The Temperance Movement's enchanting songwriting, from waltzing rock lullabies to sunbursting rock 'n' roll anthems, 'Covers & Rarities' features an irresistible rendition of Deep Purple's "You Fool No One", featuring Deep Purple's very own drum virtuoso Ian Paice.
This compilation journeys through various special tributes to some of Britain's all-time favourite bands and artists, including Led Zeppelin and David Bowie, all performed with the vibrant, hip-charming energy that The Temperance Movement are known and loved for.
This package includes the compilation on CD and a complete download on high quality WAV files, with the afore-mentioned Deep Purple cover available for download instantly. This edition comes with a digital download of the full album, plus a download of a completely unreleased, never-heard-before studio track 'Long Run'. This track is ONLY available with the digital download from the Earache Webstore.»
