See the lyrics of Cyr:

Tangents vex the whorl
The void arrives, then leaves
Returning, returning a kiss
For lovers built the dream

Yeah...these lyrics make me high, they make sense, people can connect

The only one who is on the verge is bolly. Musically!

We don't know anything about these lovers!

In the "strange lovers" era we knew the lovers were strange, engaged in strange love acts or were the recipients of WPCs strange love.

We’re all hoping for something cataclysmic.
But it’ll probably be something dull we already know like “new album coming out ! Soon! “ or, “jimmy just partnered with Yamaha drums!” Or “jack bates got his driver’s license!” Or “Zuzus now has goat milk!” Or, “paws Chicago now adopts turtles!” Or, “big announcement coming soon!”

There is literally only one announcement Billy could make that would get me to care.

........... lol....hopes seem really high for friday....
I like the positivity here.

I got once again blocked on ig cause i asked bolzinoy if james did contribute more on this album. ....... no answer...just blocked.... funny how bully reacts like an offended child....
Thats the big prob: he cant handle criticism although i asked a neutral normal question....

I've been trying to figure out his context for "lovers" in his new era lyrics, and I thought he was talking about "people who love", as opposed to soulless meanies. But then why does he say "lover you're stange...to me"?? HE MAKES NO SENSE.

COUNT DOWN TO SOME EXPLANATIONS, BILLY.

brothabigcock, Bill blocking you pretty much means James had little contribution. He wouldn't get so butthurt if it wasn't true.

A lot of WPC love songs are about his relationship with fame/fans. Stand Inside Your Love is a real obvious example of this. Lovers in WPC speak = people who love him/his music.

Cyr is about the new album, an announcement in song. The new album's "on the verge" of being released and it's going to win back a lot of fans - "The void arrives, then leaves" - and that it's a thank you of sorts to the fans who stuck by him - "Returning, returning a kiss. For lovers built the dream"

Strange means strange. Strange fans. Eg the song Monuments is about him being excited about some work but not getting the reaction he expected, not understanding what his strange fans want (read the lyrics it's really clear). Which is exactly what happened with MTAE.. strange!

100% this.

It seems like Jimmy & James are just shaking Billy/SP for $$$ at this point. I suspect they've learnt their lessons first time round, and since Bill needed them for the "comeback reunion tour/album", they've contracted up, contributed the bare minimum or given Bill exactly what he wants, and then check out. And then if it bombs, and the next Jimmy/James project (Shiny 2) is unpopular Billy will probably disband again. And it won't be his fault for putting out shit like 'Cyr', it'll be because... the nostalgia market is oversaturated, or COVID, or Jimmy & James weren't really into it. etc. etc.

I wonder if they'll go on to do their "big, final concept album" after Shiny, because Bill's expressed a desire to, yet this seems like an almost gritted-teeth, business arrangement. The difference between Shiny's collection of pre-written songs, and a big concept album.... is Jimmy (& maybe James') sustained input in the creative process. There's tension there under the surface because that's probably not what they signed up for, and more about Billy reclaiming something, without compromising himself obviously, cos if they recorded a collaborative MCIS epic... Bill wouldn't be singing or mixing his vocals any better.

Bullshit,sry. Siyl is/ was about his girlfriend ( watch storytellers) , cyr forgettable, people can not connect to these shitty singing and lyrics.

For the masses the sp are dead and forgotten.
The only one who is on the verge is corgan, musically.


I thought that scheissi vol.2 is the concept album, but i guess he mostly used some riffs from day for night or monuments
.

No hopes for tmorrow.

Fool, say hello to your daddy!!!
