Another one I'd forgotten is Isaac Hayes, who often talks about "ladies" or
whatever for quite a while, before bursting into song. Similar in effect to
"I Knew These People" on the "Paris, Texas" soundtrack LP. I like Richard
Harris too. Lest we forget, Hawkwind also indulge in a spot of spoken word
nonsense from time to time, including the lyric to top even Arab Strap's
"then she wanked me off": "If you are making love it is imperative to bring
all bodies to orgasm simulataneously." Not particularly revolting until you
see pictures of Hawkwind and imagine them...well, bringing their bodies to
orgasm simultaneously. In space. I'm thinking of using that Arab Strap lyric
at the bottom of all my messages.
