The 99th revolution Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 Here's my potential lead to an unknown song in Berkeley Square, one of the titles spawned was Future Old Boy, based on what others made out of Billie's introduction to this obscurity. I made this one out as well, but the first U has a weird accent. Am I hearing things or was this title that existed for a long period the true lead for some time already? Quote
Miko Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 What unknown song? I wish threads like this would include some context to what's being talked about. Quote
The 99th revolution Posted February 7, 2024 Author Posted February 7, 2024 There was an unknown song at the Berkeley Square KALX show (1989) which was nicknamed Jennifer and Future Old Boy. Quote
Little Boy Named Booze Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 Absolutely don't know what you're talking about and what is your lead. Video? Context? Please Quote
The 99th revolution Posted February 7, 2024 Author Posted February 7, 2024 This is what I am talking about, when I say "lead" I refer to what I made out from Billie's introduction of the song. In the beginning you can hear him say the song title, which appears to be "Future Old Boy". This speculation has existed for a while now, but the song was still considered unknown. Quote
Miko Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 It doesn't sound ''future'' at all. It sounds more like ''Butcher''. Quote
The 99th revolution Posted February 7, 2024 Author Posted February 7, 2024 Good point, I was sort of skeptical about the word future because Billie didn't say the actual pronounciation but more of a 'foo-tur', so you might be right with the name being "Butchered Old Boy" or something. Quote
Saviour Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 Sounds like a cover of something. They covered all sorts of random stuff around this time from bands around Gilman and Lookout Records. I remember the bootleg of C Yo Yus in the early days of file sharing which people thought might be an unrecorded track. Quote
The 99th revolution Posted February 7, 2024 Author Posted February 7, 2024 For some reason the guitar reminds me of the opening to Nirvana's smash hit Smells Like Teen Spirit in the same way as Christie Road's guitar before "Oh mother stay out of my way / of that place we go". Quote
