I travelled to a mystical time zone…

Fra nyt interview på thestranger.com med The Smiths’ Johnny Marr:

I’m aware that the music for the Smiths song “A Rush and a Push and the Land Is Ours” was borrowed from a song called ‘Shoes’ by Reparata. How were you introduced to that song?

It was inspired by that, yeah—the bulk of that tune I kind of remembered from being a kid while it was on the English charts. I liked the electric piano—it stuck in my subconscious. It’s funny how these things come out.

3 tanker om “I travelled to a mystical time zone…”

  1. Se dét er da interessant – du må have haft slukket for radioen af og til dengang. “Shoes” havnede faktisk på en af radiohitlisterne herhjemme, husker jeg.

  2. Jeg kendte ikke dette nummer før i går, men hvor er det vildt godt! Troede ellers den eneste The Smiths-forbindelse til Raparata gik via titellånet fra sidstnævntes northern soul-hit ‘Panic’… 😉
