Tim Buckley - Down By The Borderline Lyrics

I'm big fun!　　tokyo japan

Yet people say greetings from LA was out of nowhere?

Buzz Gardner didn't play this free with Frank. Wow!

COMEONBOYCOMEONBOYCOMEBOYCOMEONBOYYY

I suspect the marketing was sabotaged because why is this not one of those giant hits everyone knows about?. It's on his StarSailor album, which pissed his record company off no end as being too wierd although this 1 track wasn't. It broke his confidence {upped his drugs?] This gem rips the top off ur head off and goose-bumps like a banshee. Fantastic.

because there are better songs and better singers. He has to get in line.

@Honey327 Go back to shitty pop trite.

@Honey327 I think Starsailor is a masterpiece but it's definitely not for everyone. Try Goodbye and Hello, Blue Afternoon or Greetings from L.A. I can't really think of anyone on Tim Buckley's level with such a career and voice.

one of the most powerfull songs ever~and one no-one has ever heard of it !!!. That's because it's a psychochosm that turned into a black hole..Rocks though

I think on this song Tim was working towards the sound which eventually became the Greetings from LA album!! Brilliant.

Definitely

Tim Buckley or, better called " The best rock singer of all time"

the residents stole this riff

where? I haven't listen Residents yet

@gabriele gilli a song off their album baby sex

Thank you

kicking tune

Wowww!!!!!

*wELL isn't this a MAGICALLY composed piece>~>~>?~?~?*

The genius of Tim Buckley. He was fearless, breaking through genre labels in his continuous search for beauty.

Well said. That more onus was put on that now and all days.

+Kevin M absolutely!

Kevin M iiii

this song is just

A genius!!! <3

Bloody awesome !!!

You can hear the beginnings of the soul and funk that Tim was about to delve into.

haha! What a great message in my inbox! Yes, I have listened to Alan Sorrenti and Saint Just and some of other Italian prog bands! I am not a savant of that musical direction, but I especially like Celeste with their "Principe di un giorno" album. "Aria" is also a great album! And I agree with the part that there's no one like Timmy. ^_^

Because there's nothing else like it. Closest is an album called "Aria" by Alan Sorrenti influenced heavily by "Starsailor," sung in Italian, which also has trumpets & the violin of Jean-luc Ponty. In the early 70s he used to open for Pink Floyd in Italy. However by the mid-70's he had turned into a very shallow disco-pop act. His sister Jenny Sorrenti's group called Saint Just also put out a couple of great Italian prog-rock albums at that time. You can find tracks from all of them on you tube

oh why the fuck i love this so much!

bloody hell!!!!! :D

Badass...

oh i love this...orgasm

if only his passion had remained with music and not other influences that so many of us fall prey to... what a fantastic repertoire there could have been.Love this jazzy tune

This man's voice knew no bounds!

Neither did the man himself. :( It must be tough to deal with the genius in oneself...

perfect

taumelnd großartig!
