No Picture tommy Average	#1 by tommy greenham at Dec 2, 1987 at 2:52 PM EST
	it reminds me of being lost in club culture and drugs and alcohol.....and gorgetting who you really are. all thats left is a kind of drugged shell. its like wanting to go back to your former self, to "dull the pain"- to come home.

No Picture Tim Average	#2 by Tim Curry at Sep 19, 1988 at 10:22 AM EST
	sweet prince, the lines "stuck between the do or die" means that yoo have to choices do or die.. it means you are forced to do things and if you dont do it then you die... good look with your english lol

No Picture Cocoabean Average	#3 by Cocoabean at Sep 19, 1989 at 12:28 AM EST
	Hey I' from Germany and need some help for translating their texts into German. If someone wants to help me, please what does he mean with "stuck between the do or die" ????

No Picture My Life is Rule Average	#4 by My Life is Ruled by 4 Strings at Mar 30, 1997 at 6:39 AM EST
	I've read that this isn't Brian's favourite song back when Black Market Music came out, I'm not sure about now though. This song talks about the longing for a home for Brian. He really never had one as a child and now he doesn't really have one as a performer because of the travelling. He is also fighting for a friend who is using drugs. He is wanting for his friend to become what they used to be and how the person's life has fallen to pieces.

No Picture Sojo Rhythm Player	#5 by Sojo The Great! at Dec 1, 1998 at 3:54 AM EST
	Brian was always dragged around the world by his father..I think it may have been about feeling lost. The drug/alcohol culture soudns good too..like he's got the feeling of growing up but has the attachment to home, as we all know Brian is fond and connected with his mother.

No Picture I Told Them My Lead Player	#6 by I Told Them My Name Was Jim Steele at Dec 17, 2001 at 6:05 PM EST
	Think this may be my favourite song, ever. Love the line: Always goes against the grain, and I can try and deny it Give a monkey half a brain, and still he's bound to fry it.
