Machine Head - Message In A Bottle Lyrics






Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
There's no one here but me
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle

A year has passed since I wrote my notes
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep us together
Love can mend your life
But love can break your heart

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle

    2019!!!! I remember getting this album in High School and jamming the fuck out of it. My friend's all wanted to listen to grateful dead and phish while pretending to be hippies, but not me it was this Pantera, Crowbar, Eyehategod, Acid Bath and shit like that.

  31. R.... C....

    I remember when I bought this album, and I listened to this song. I then stopped listening to machine head

  32. R.... F....

    I like the version from Excel better. Just my opinion.

  33. F.... D....

    The end

  34. J.... M....

    Better than the original.

  35. B.... B....

  37. S.... M....

    Way to screw up a song guys

  38. 8.... ....

    I think he might be sending out an SOS

  39. C.... B....

    I can imagine a game where you're stuck in an island and this song is in the credits

  40. J.... D....

    Garbage cover by a garbage band.

  41. l.... m....

    I keep coming back to this. Such a good song. Love it.

  48. F.... P....

    Am I the only one that this feels like a pre cursor tone wise, guitar and vocal wise to beneath the silt? Not sure the year but I definitely feel like they ran with this and found a way to make it their own, cool cover!

  49. S.... R....

    🤘🤘

  50. M.... ....

  51. J.... B....

  53. J.... B....

    Posted on Pinterest !!!!!

  54. N.... &....

    I remember having The Burning Red album back in 99 when I was 19 and my favorite songs were this cover,The Burning Red, and The blood ,The sweat ,The tears

    N.... &....

    Those were the wigger days of machine head....

  55. I.... c....

    Id be curious to hear the police thoughts on the cover. Ftr i think its awesome!

  56. M.... T....

    Fuckin love it!!

  57. P.... B....

    Anyone know any other songs that has guitar flanging similar to the one at the beginning of this song?

  58. J.... V....

    Yeah good cover to bad the album is easily their worst one.

    J.... V....

    Jessie Van Morrison .... too...

  59. y.... ....

    Wow. I used to love this in the clubs in my formative years. Now it sounds like whiny emo crap. Hasn't aged well at all.

  60. A.... M....

    Too slow...

  61. Z.... H....

    This album practically saved me around 15 years old. .. can't believe i almost forgot about it

    Z.... H....

    Me too! Such an integral part of my youth!

  62. �.... V....

    https://aplaceiliketohide.blogspot.com.es/2016/08/message-in-bottle.html

  63. c.... ....

    This song makes me feel emotions that I thought I couldn’t feel anymore

  64. I.... S....

    Hmmm... surprised me lol

  65. b.... m....

    A year has past since I blew my nose

  66. l.... ....

    Nice cover, although it's not my favorite genre!
    I always prefer the original to the copy.

  67. D.... L....

    this is good

  68. c.... v....

    Pretty hardcore. Love it

  69. I.... N....

    Fuck me this is awesome!

  70. M.... ....

    In summer 1999 i devastated my brain by furious headbanging to this. Still having that big bad old Denon decibel machine and red covered CD from 1999.

  71. B.... ....

    What genre of rock would this be classified as?

    B.... ....

    bluegrass

    B.... ....

    Nigrum Romanum It's grunge, bluegrass has more roots in country. Grunge rock is very sloggy, slow, and depressing with brief moments of energy.

    Usually you identify grunge by this, if the song starts slow and slowly builds up to a climax at the end it's probably grunge.

    B.... ....

    oh man, i was only  joking...thanx for explanation

    B.... ....

    MrGaableenz Yeah I figured you were either joking or wildly mistaken, either way, no problem.

  72. W.... H....

    Before Robb Flynn turned into a blowhard Libtard.

    W.... H....

    William H. Thompson remember when musicians seriously didn't give a shit whatsoever?

    W.... H....

    It's a really a damn shame what happened to him.

    W.... H....

    @Tyler Jarjoura I read the lyrics to the last album & was like nope Machinehead like Greenday & Offspring only have 3 albums haha

  73. V.... B....

    Amazing cover..! Such a masterpiece..!

  74. A.... B....

    JEEP CHEROKEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  75. M.... J....

    WELL SHIT!

  76. D.... M....

    terminaré la cerveza! JAJAJAJA

  77. M.... ....

    hell fuck yeah!

  78. Z.... S....

    When the cover is better than the original...

    Z.... S....

    Shut up you idiot!

    Z.... S....

    Excel did it better

    Z.... S....

    Hard to say, bro... MH are genius, but Police are too! Wouldnt judge here..

  79. D.... ....

    Why have I not heard this before?

  80. G.... W....

    i don't know why but i really like metal covers of non metal songs, probably why i like scorpions so much, i love their cover of tin solider by small faces.

    G.... W....

    George Williams Death forever 🤘

    G.... W....

    RIP Chuck :(

  81. K.... G....

    1.5 original speed

    K.... G....

    Instant original speed as intended by Police!

    K.... G....

    RIP legends xD

    K.... G....

    1.5 seems a little too fast though.
    on the other hand, 1.25 is still too slow...

    i can't decide which one is better, probably best would be sth like 1.4 or 1.35

    K.... G....

    Its slower then the original idiot

  82. C.... O....

    Love the song..

  83. M.... D....

    Fuckin hell this is good

  84. S.... S....

    fuckin awesome

    S.... S....

    S.... S....

    +Sio Snarf maybe you saw another person with same profile photo?

    S.... S....

    Sedef Sarı who hasn't heard of burzum?

    S.... S....

    Glen Humphrey maybe

  85. m.... a....

    Holy fuck, this is awesome. 'Message in a Bottle' is my favourite The Police song and this blows it out of the water. I normally don't like Machine Head.

    m.... a....

    you right . but I do like their first album . in whole ... must be that drummer BOSS .

    m.... a....

    m.... a....

  86. t.... s....

    ...___...

  87. b.... b....

  88. R.... O....

    the lyrics are a bit off as he doesn't sing the part about a hundred bottles on shore, anyway it's a great song😀

  89. W.... m....

    Awesome fucking cover. Now if Metallica would do it...

    W.... m....

    Absolutely. I like this version,but something about it leaves me feeling like it never really hit max revs.
    Now,if METALLICA did it...
    Aye. Definite.

  90. C.... J....

    epic win

  91. M.... B....

    omfg thiss is great cover forgot about it

  92. J.... H....

    Oh my god. I haven't heard this version in 15 years. I feel old.

    J.... H....

    only as old as u feel mate and this cover makes me feel 300ft tall !

    J.... H....

    I feel old as shit but I decided feeling old is for pussies.

    J.... H....

    k thanks

    J.... H....

    Never heard it. I am old

    J.... H....

    this album collect dust on my cd rack

  93. J.... R....

    Its buckcherry, my mistake.....

    J.... R....

    +Jeff Ruffner so it's not machine head ?

    J.... R....

    +Kurt Cobain... it's Machine Head. Burning Red album. Epic cover!

    J.... R....

    @Peter McMaster Ok, yes great cover !

  94. J.... R....

    Dramarama anything anything, chuckberry anything anything.... Look those up and I dont like either band and that was a classic song then excellent cover.....

  95. A.... L....

    I have never liked Machine Head, and I didnt think I like the Police all that much, but the first minute and a half of this has made me decide to revisit both of them.

    A.... L....

    +Atlus Libre Respect brother!There is something about this song that just hits the spot!\m/!

    A.... L....

    get some !!!!!!

    A.... L....

    Same!!!

  96. M.... M....

    For me, this cover is like Trivium's cover of Metallica's Master of Puppets.  Not just a rerecording but a reinvention of the song.  This kicks ass!

    M.... M....

    thank you

    M.... M....

    And I've been sitting here thinking Triviums was just that by my lonesome.

    M.... M....

    I like the original version of master of puppets a little more....

  97. p.... ....

    Linda banda!....

  98. M.... ....

    Love the rawness.... great cover.

  99. M.... M....

    Very grungy
