PJ Harvey – Rid of Me Lyrics 12 years ago
I heard that all the lyrics are taken from one very disturbing piece of fan mail PJ got, and she rearranged them, changed a few words and put them to music. Thinking about the lyrics like that it's even scarier. Also, if you listen to live versions from 1993, the 'Lick My Legs Part' is sung by her drummer, who is credited as backing vocals for all songs in the liner notes and his voice is the same as the studio version, but live versions after she dropped him from her band and the demo version have PJ singing that bit, and her vocals sound different to the studio version, so I don't think she sings the 'Lick My Legs' section on the album version.

X-Ray Spex – Identity Lyrics 13 years ago
Eugh, can we please sort out the formatting of the lyrics to this amazing song?

Identity!
Identity is the crisis can't you see?
Identity, identity
When you look in the mirror do you see yourself?
Do you see yourself on the t.v. screen?
Do you see yourself in the magazine?
When you see yourself does it make you scream?

Identity is the crisis can't you see?
Identity, identity
Yeah

Identity is the crisis can't you see?
Identity, identity
When you look in the mirror do you smash it quick?
Do you take the glass and slash your wrists?
Did you do it for fame?
Did you do it in a fit?
Did you do it before you read about it?

Identity is the crisis I can see
Identity, identity
Yeah

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark – International Lyrics 13 years ago
These are the correct words to the opening news report - as interpreted by Andy MacClusky (OMD's lead singer who wrote the song):

The youth anti-Imperialist Tribune was
also addressed by a young girl
from Nicaragua whose hands had been cut
off at the wrists by the former
Samosa guard.
Veronica Merkoff, of the German Federal
Republic, had this to say:

"Also, ich habe eine Ausbildung gemacht als Industriekaufmann
und wurde nach der Ausbildung nicht übernommen,
habe also eine abgeschlossene Berufsausbildung.
Und so wie mir geht..."
