Martina Topley-Bird — Black Steel
So I’ve been listening to Tricky all day and was compelled to search out this video for a couple reasons. First, I really love this cover. Not only does it genre-flip AND gender-flip (kind of? she sings it as the male character) the original Public Enemy track, it isolates the first verse of the song and kind of circles it obsessively, which has a fascinating effect. It leaves the narrator stranded in the prison cell and takes away the release of the “in the hour of chaos” part of the song, which makes this version a long, rolling boil with no relief.
Secondly, it illustrates why I’m reluctant to go see Tricky without Martina Topley-Bird. Tricky was a duo as far as I’m concerned.
THE BUZZCOCKS - EVER FALLEN IN LOVE
A universal message wrapped up in a three minute punk song sung entirely in a minor chord. It’s melancholy, angry, and wistful, and Pete Shelley’s vocals are perfect. One of my all-time favorites - this is a great live performance.

I know I say it about all mountain goats songs, but this is a really good one.

ugh, this album!
I know right, it’s just unreasonably good.
And it’s absolutely ridiculous that he was 23 when he made this. 23!?! What? He sounds positively ancient.
