Blog CemeteryShirley Temple's what???
January 10th 2007 03:20
Shirley Temples' P...y was the name of the band that we know as "The Stone Temple Pilots". I was told this years ago when they first came out, but I believe its true. I decided to make them my artist of the week. They changed their name a couple of times before coming up with the "Stone Temple Pilots". They stayed with the "STP" because they liked the "STP motor oil" logo.
I put them in my CD player last night and it's still in there. I have Core and Thank You which is their greatest hits. I suggest their greatest hits to everyone. 'Plush' is a great song, the original or acoustic version. There is also the Tinkster version which isn't bad. I was in Florida with my sister and we decided to go out one night. We went to a bar on the beach, and a two man band started playing "Plush". I immediately was on the floor jammin. The next thing I know they motioned me to come on stage with them, and I sang the song while they played. It was very cool. I want to give you the lyrics to a different song though. I like the seduction of this song and I wanted to share it with you.
'Sex Type Thing'
"I am, I am, I am
I said I wanna get next to you
I said I gonna get close to you
You wouldn't want me have to hurt you too? Hurt you too?
I ain't, I ain't, I ain't
A buyin' into your apathy
I'm gonna learn ya my philosophy
You wanna know about atrocity, atrocity?
I know you want what's on my mind
I know you like what's on my mind
I know it eats you up inside
I know, you know, you know, you know
I am a man, a man
I'll give you something that you won't forget
I said ya shouldn't have worn that dress
I said ya shouldn't have worn that dress
I know you want what's on my mind
I know you like what's on my mind
I know it eats you up inside
I know, you know, you know, you know
Here I come, I come, I come
I am, I am, I am
I said I wanna get next to you
I said I wanna get close to you
You wouldn't want me have to hurt you too? Hurt you too?
I know you want what's on my mind
I know you like what's on my mind
I know it eats you up inside
I know, you know, you know, you know
Here I come, I come, I come"
I was lucky to see the "Stone Temple Pilots" before they broke up. I saw them and others at the Hard Rock Festival in Chicago,Il. They played 4 songs. They played 'Plush', 'Sex Type Thing', 'Vasoline', and 'Interstate Love Song' . I was delighted.
Scott had trouble with heroin like many other artist, and it eventually caused the band to break up. He is now with "Velvet Revolver" and I hear that he has cleaned up his act. Good for you Scott! I have not gave "Velvet Revolver" a listen and I am not sure why.
Okay people let me know some of your favorite "STP" songs or lyrics. If you like them or hate them? Do you like the new band that Scott is in? Am I stupid for not buying a "Velvet Revover" CD? Come and talk to me

I used to love Shirley Temple's P...y when I was a teenager, but grew out of it...
Damn, that didn't come out right. If only there was a way of deleting things you have typed. Oh well, let me try again.
I actually like their album Tiny Music better than the earlier ones, where they went a bit more glam and pop. I think it suited them better than the broodiness of Core.
P.S. They should have never changed their name. What the hell is a Stone Temple Pilot anyway?

Three words...
INTERSTATE LOVE SONG...
"Waiting on a sunday afternoon
For what I read between the lines,
Your lies.
Feelin like a hand in rusted shame
So do you laugh or does it cry?
Reply?"
Everytime I hear these lyrics...it reminds me of something...but I can't quite remember what. Hmmmm.
HEY HELLVIS,
Good to see you, too! I cracked up when I seen your comment to Tinkster. I had just emailed her and said that I was glad they changed the name...too...many...visuals.
Any sign of the Colonel lately?

That's cool that you got to perform the song. That would've been fun. In 2005 on Australian Idol, one of the contestants, an annoying mall punk kid called Lee Harding, sang "Plush". It wasn't too good. Another guy also did "Rooster" by Alice In Chains which was actually pretty good. There were some interesting song choices that year.
Shirley Temple's Panties would have been an okay name, but I like the flatout offensiveness of the other one.
That reminds me of a bit of useless music triva: Shirley Temple's daughter Lori (or Lorax) used to play bass with the Melvins.

No word from the Colonel lately, although I did visit another Colonel yesterday and ate one of his Zinger Bacon & Cheese burgers. It wasn't quite the same as you and yourcheeseburgers, but it was close.
Did you know that "Sex Type Thing" is a song sung from a rapist's perspective? I remember reading that somewhere, although looking at the lyrics, it could be interpreted in a few different ways.

Lovely...first, the little tidbit about STP name and then a lovely little tune about rape. What am I going to find out next? That the band spent some time in prison for murdering someone's grandma? That they worship Satan? Give me your best shot at this point.
You should know that nothing will ever be as good as my cheeseburgers! In fact, you should make it your religion of choice. Oh wait....I have confused myself on food and religious denominations, again. Dammit.
