Yeah

Harmonium

Okay...this really, really bugs me....we go through this again and again...there is no evidence to support the idea that Ameriteen will be on Harmonium. I feel like I always raise this point, but wasn't there an interview or something where it was said that Ameriteen was not going to be on Harmonium? I know that this has been discussed before, and I know that the general opinion has always tended to be that, being an anti-war song, and with the war in Iraq essentially over now, it simply wouldn't make sense to have it on an upcoming CD...

Post by: LimeTwister on September 05, 2004, 06:12:14 pm: Yea, it would have had to be you...and the war is not over.

But, (don't faint) I am gonna agree. It probably won't be on the album.

Post by: Afterglow on December 17, 2004, 10:06:19 am: Well... Ameriteen sounds to be a good song.. But The one I have it's a bad... hmm... I'd say more than bad... And I don't know English very well.. and I think when she was singing.. she did something wrong and stopped singing and she started again.... If you want to.. I can send you on Monday because now I'm not home.... I told my mother I would study for next year in my cousin's house but I'm in the lanhouse paying to use internet.. So. I can't send you it now...

Post by: ThomasEj on February 13, 2005, 01:57:45 pm: at first I want to ask if someone has got this song....
I've just read this lyric and I think it is beautiful. what do you think is this song about? How would you describe a title? does ameriteen mean american teen guy?

Ameriteen
Broken hearted on a Wednesday
Think we're leavin' town on Thursday
Cause bombs were droppin down all afternoon

I don't forget to pack my lipgloss
It makes me pretty, while I feel lost
Make room for glossy teeny magazines
Ameriteen, Ameriteen
Ameri...

I really like having a boyfriend
He held me close under the stars and
He kissed me there, how memories don't fade
And now the air is getting heavy
And boys with guns are getting ready
It's time for me to leave this all behind
Ameriteen, Ameriteen
Ameri...

And as the teeth of dogs of war sink in,
I feel this thing unfold
And I wish Bobby would stop by
I know he's gone through his window
And as the smoke of us blows by
I will stand by the window
All is not well in the night
Where is the sunlight that I know?

Broken hearted on a Wednesday
Momma's packin up on Thursday
Cause bombs were droppin' down all afternoon

Post by: NESSAussie on May 21, 2005, 06:10:35 am: After watching Get Up Stand Up (http://www.abc.net.au/tv/guide/netw/200504/programs/ZY7512A003D30042005T220000.htm) I'm not surprised that Ameriteen never
saw the light of day as a recording. :wink: It seems that anything remotely
against the stance of those in power was drowned in a tide of material
given the support of the administration to legitimise this War on Terror.
