Garbage - Special Lyrics

"Special"

I'm living without you
I know all about you
I have run you down into the ground
Spread disease about you over town

I used to adore you
I couldn't control you
There was nothing that I wouldn't do
To keep myself around and close to you

Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
But I've run out of patience
I couldn't care less

I...
I...

Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know

I used to amuse you
I knew that I'd lose you
Now you're here and begging for a chance
But there's no way in hell I'd take you back

Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
But I've run out of patience
I've run out of comments
I'm tired of the violence
I couldn't care less

I'm looking for a new [4x]

We were the talk of the town [4x]

I thought you were special [4x]

Writer(s): Shirley Manson, Steve Marker, Bryan Vig, Douglas Erickson
album: "Version 2.0" (1998)

Garbage's second studio album repeated the success of the debut album a bit worldwide, mainly in the major markets, UK: where it was number one and was also certified with double platinum for sales of over six hundred thousand copies. In the United States, where it reached number thirteen and was certified with platinum (near two platinas) by sales of more than one million copies in that country. All over the world, it sold more than four million copies! As was the case with the debut album, homonym, in the mid-nineties. Six singles were taken from Version 2.0, (1998), Push It, I Think I'm Paranoid, Special, When I Grow Up, The Trick Is To Keep Breathing and You Look So Fine. It really is a good alternative rock album. I recommend. Thank you very much, Garbage, for existing! You are special and unique in the rock world. And Shirley Manson, you are so beautiful and sexy.

So fucking beautiful.

Cult has me make these people go away I dont want to know Ryan wilson.

Unfortunately she was shot down and killed by Billie Eilish and the general Garbage that passes for music post 2010.

Spread coronavirus about you over town .....

I like the songs, but I think the only thing that I didn't like was the electronic drums. I always hated music with electronic sounding drums. Still do.

this song reminds me with revolver album by the beatles <3

That video is whacked, but in the best kind of way...

2020.. still love and rocking!!

"Do you have an opinion, a mind of your own?" More relevant today than in the 90s

"I'M TIRED OF THE VIOLENCE, COULDN'T CARE LESS..."

WE'RE ALL DOOMED...WORLD WAR BEGAN TODAY.

Cool song

I thought u were special.

I lost my virginity to this song. How ironic it ended up being.

Siempre uno vuelve a escuchar música de los 90's como esta banda genial.

Looks like she hunting Butch Vig.

A knod to the Pretenders! Love it.

Los 90s que recuerdos de alegría y nostalgia 😊😭

19 Ene 2020!!!!

Anyone have an opinion in 2020?

The lyrics.
Typical nutcase women.
They try and destroy you after you split up..
Evil bitch lyrics..

enjoy the flight if u wish u were there in the sky!!!!!!!

0:10 Este en un mensaje del 2020 para la reina astarte, resista el triunfo está por llegar

Una grandiosa canción 🕺🏽 escuchándola aún en el 2020 una de mis favoritas de Garbage

Still waiting for the continue..

I remember when this music video dropped... I"ll always love Garbage...

Under rated song for sure. Great changes. Very interesting. Harmony arrangement multiple voices. Hell of a song.....nice production. Feels like it never gets to the chorus though. So close but never finds it. Very good anyway..lol

Love the homage to Pretenders in lyrics

This is a Garbage special.

Everyone who came here deserves a thumbs-up. ON THE HOUSE!!!

some of the best music i've ever heard :(

Great bass line, awesome

Snoopy vs the Red Baron 3030?

2020 and years to come of watching this masterpiece...

Im going down!

Whats that? You're the talk of the town?

No! I'm going down!

Alright alright so youre the talk of the town. So?


No! I'm goi--- *static*

Happy New year 🎉❣️❣️🎉❣️🎉 2020.

Love this song. Maybe I'll see you in concert soon. Would of loved to see you perform in the 90's though.

2020! Here we go!

Landed here from Transworld - Transmission 7

Best garbage song ever 😉

After seeing this video on MTV, I bought Version 2.0 at my local music store. I've been a massive Garbage fan ever since.

This is how Star Wars 9 should've ended. Girl power without bullshit.

I wonder if they drew lots to find out who would be the last guy? Oh, Shirley.

Álbum épico de los 90, en cassette luego en CD luego en MP3 actualmente en smartphone la buena música nunca muere.

перевожу китайским друзиям
она поёит о том
что видя мэйджор том
остаётся при своём мнении

слышь гагарин королёв ленов
сопли выдавило все давно
не справшиваем вас
ходил ли _____
Гагариени в туалет
джуманджи всирано отрой нампуть
и будемм мы любить авс

Great song, cool band, STUPID VIDEO.

The 90s...i survived, barely 👀🖤
Shirley Manson is SO talented and sexy

Alguien recuerda un video similar de una cantante similar de la misma epoca en que salio este??? Igualmente a la chica la van persiguiendo en naves antigravedad en un desierto... La he buscado durante años y no la encuentro.

Love this track and the video. Always have an opinion and a mind of your own. Best bit of advice in this lyric.

Una de las canciones mas bellas de Garbage, nunca me canso de escucharla, es fantastica

I love this video. It reminds me of Heavy Metal magazine.

Still iconic and awesome. This band has aged quite well.

Ohhhh man

Never to be continued?

Charles Manson had some talented kids. Shirley might be even better than Marilyn! Just call me Oscar cuz I love me some Garbage!!

Quien de mexico ? Me encanta esta cancion 👏👏

2020 Garbage on tour with Alanis Morissette!🤩🎸🎶🎤

Here in 2019 🙌

I'm looking for me!!!

She looked so good in this video.. Mercy.

Fuck I love this track. I'm 40 and it still moves me to joy in the music and to tears in the lyrics

Metal Slug's Planes?!

Underrated

So many years later..
I hoped Shirley was able to contact home base and get to the extraction point
to continue the fight..and when the next album came out I hoped it wasn't an Avril replica..
It appears all is well..

Named the band, "Garbage" on a whim, didn't think they would be popular.

SHIRLEY WAS FIRE IN THIS VIDEO! <3

💐 I saw Garbage @ SEC in '98 💓

Their best song for the emotional connection

Sherilin I Love you!💞💞💞💞

I'm still upset they didn't continue this story.

Garbage was amazing! They ran away from the pack and trail-blazed for so many followers

She's classy, sexy love it awesome voice

saludos desde tequila jalisco mexico y esta rola me latia un resto y aun la oigo en el 2019

This girl was most definitely special 😝

Shirley is still a flawless goddess and I'm glad she and the boys are still making music

I love her music <3

The 90s, fucking awesome music!

without all that make up I'm sure she'll look totally different girl

Omg are those cherry red strawberry lipstick...Have lots of use for those lips !,,,

This song hurts.

We broke up. This is her now.

Me encanta esta canción, me transporta a mi infancia cuando la oía en la radio 😪 imagen digital 101.9 aún lo recuerdo 🙊

Like si lo ves en 2019, saludos desde FRESNILLO Zacatecas México al Mundo yeahhhhhh 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽 viva México, Garbage Grupazo 🙏✌👍🇲🇽.

Thanks for the flashback.

Yes another great dancing song for me at the time. in my late teens. Of course im sure no one hear the lyrics except me. I would like to dedicate this song to Steven T Hall. Thanks buddy! Proposed at Jones beach NY, a bout a week later we broke up, less then 2 more weeks later he married another girl! Pissed at the time. Gave him my heart, my life and my money. And got nothing in return but ... your dumped!

Brings me Memories.

1999 doesn't feel that long ago.

Such talent so beautiful!!! Good old days!!!!

One of the most under rated music videos ever made.

This is their BEST SONG yet I never see it on a Top 10 List of theirs!
I think it's better than Push it and Stupid Girl!

Anthem!

Butch vig created the late 90s and early 2000s

I loved this song since the 90's. Who's still listening to Garbage? Give it comment.
