I mean I could kinda get that confusion with this and there she goes but once I got told off for ruining Golden Brown by telling someone it was about heroin. I was like what the fuck, I mean the clue is the name, some people!

They just thought it was about honey. Delicious drug from those pusher bees

Which makes the dark meaning behind the Four Tops’ Sugar Pie Honey Bunch clearer. Like heroin both sugar and honey will cause your teeth to fall out.

You leave the bees alone, they’re our best friends! But yes sweet sweet delicious honey...

Sounds like there’s something extra in your honey!

Would love to hear your perspective on Transformer. It’s a great pop album, Mick Ronson and Bowie do a great job producing and arranging it and Lou brought fringe groups to wider consciousness through these songs. Perfect Day is about heroin btw

Yeah, i first heard this album when i was around 18 yrs old.
From first listen it had a flow and story that grabbed you and not really a bad tune to zone you out. One of those classics id put in my personal top 100 Albums of all time.
Maybe played late evening after a couple of drinks. Ahhhh
Quite envy whoever gets a first listen of that one.

Also if thinking Perfect Day is a love song to heroin ruins it as a love song to a significant other just ignore my posts here

Nah it can be about both.

Queen B?



Carry on.

That’s why all that buzzing is coming from your room. I hope that you realise that The Buzzcocks is a pop/punk band and not an adult website for men who fetishise about mating with the Queen Bee.

@Skalap will get annoyed in this week’s episode of the sitcom as he can’t eat his croissants as he has to wear a bee keepers costume due to his bee sting allergy. Cue hilarity
