Here they come! the dogs of lust.
Out of my mind. into my life.
Somebody should be here to hold me
Somebody should be here to show me, show me!
When you're lustful. when you're lonely.
& the heat is rising slowly.
I got it blue. I got it bad.
I got the sweetest sadness I ever had.
As the hours pass before my eyes.
As the hours pass before me.
When you're lustful. when you're lonely.
& the heat is rising slowly.
I keep reaching up
But they drag me back down
Wherever I try to hide
I will always be found
When you're lustful. when you're lonely.
& the heat is rising slowly.
Rising rising rising slowly
Rising rising rising
Rising rising slowly.
Out of my mind. into my life.
Somebody should be here to hold me
Somebody should be here to show me, show me!
When you're lustful. when you're lonely.
& the heat is rising slowly.
I got it blue. I got it bad.
I got the sweetest sadness I ever had.
As the hours pass before my eyes.
As the hours pass before me.
When you're lustful. when you're lonely.
& the heat is rising slowly.
I keep reaching up
But they drag me back down
Wherever I try to hide
I will always be found
When you're lustful. when you're lonely.
& the heat is rising slowly.
Rising rising rising slowly
Rising rising rising
Rising rising slowly.

This album was released in my last semester of grad school when we all knew we were graduating and were trying to kill our livers. There's a special place in my heart for this album and this sone.

Huh. I'd disagree, but that's just my opinion. Also, though not necessarily about the singing itself, in the audio engineering world, the album "Dusk" is considered to be a literal "how-to" clinic on recording vocals. Incredible dynamics, multi-tracking including the utilization of a variety of mics (and on the same song), distortion, even the recording level which frequently made one feel they were in the same room. the list goes on. IMHO, Matt Johnson is a freakin' genius and "Dusk" is his masterpiece...as influential in the recording arts as The Beach Boys "Pet Sounds" is.
Wow. I love RP listeners like this.

Awesome song by an awesome band severely let down by lame arsed commentary. Just digging out my copy of Dusk for the drive to work. Great album as all The The albums are - already looking forward to Bluer than midnight
Terrible singing!

Confused wites:
What is all this talk of a Harp? I listened like mad, couldn't hear one, at all.
Seems I couldn't hear the harp for all the noise made by the harmonica.
Hint - one fits to the mouth, the other is a bit bigger and is beloved of the Welsh.
Get it bl**dy right!

Makes me think of sauntering into a bar with a bunch of bikers or local cowboys hanging out. Keep your eyes a little lower than usual but wear a big grin. Say 'hello' but don't stare. It is all cool.
Can not hear this without thinking of the Marginal Prophets. Like This!

Hey! The The! I'll never forget this one morning shortly after I've moved to the city, when I woke up to a really beautifully sunny day and the girl I was sleeping over at, had put "This is the day" (my life will surely change) on the record (!) player - introducing me to a great song of a great band and giving me a really memorable feeling...
I don't know how old you people are, but this is one of the best things to come out of the 90's. You might consider playing the whole album side, since they do a very nice job with continuity. And the music is irreproachable. That means good.
note to self: you want to buy this for dancing around the house - trust me - you liked it today

No really, it's true, it's not like that bozo who complained about Beck's playing harp on a song. What this guy's doing here is pretty amateur hour. Honestly, it almost sounds like he sampled a few harp notes into a synthesizer and is repeating them.
But the song works overall anyway.
I wanna not like this because of that singer's voice, but somehow it just works for me with the harp.

"I am the Walrus" with a harmonica.
(And any time you can get a walrus to play the harmonica, that's a hell of an accomplishment!)
woot woot!!! Shades of John and Julian Lennon....this packs got potential....awe in the Harp zone bossa!!!!!!
Apparently a new album is soon out!
GREAT intro..like a British ambulance
Always nice to hear something I haven't before, and this actually sounds good. Rates a 5 or so, eh?
Does anyone know what Matt is doing now? We need new music!

How can someone's opinion of a song make you lose respect for them, unless they present that opinion in a childish or offensive manner?
Definitely sounds better on a Friday afternoon ... unfortunately its only Tuesday, now.

I'd like to hear this live. At about 3 a.m., after I'd been drinking since 9 p.m.
Love this stuff ... isnt Johny Marr playing guitar on this one?
Nice one. Love all their (his) older stuff too.
Unfortunately I bought it all again recently on iTunes so I can't upload to RP damn it!

OMG I LOVE this song!! Good old days indeed...
Oh yes.
Sometimes it's more about the memories than the music. But then there muse have been some music there to get me to first listen to it 14 years ago.

Oh, and for the detractors. My 6 year plays this on the harmonica as well, with no hands too boot :) And I still like it :)

I seldom understand when folks say "the good old days" but this tune provides me an insight into that saying.
...still no rating of 20 available...
I need to rate this higher than possible here.
A 20 would do it perhaps....
Whoa - already had this rated a 10... After Bill's genius segue from Belly Slow Dog, I'll have to bump it to 11!
Hell mutha-f'n YES! Been years since I heard this! Great summer driving song to turn up with the top down...
Sounds just as good fourteen years later.
I would love to hear Buddy Guy cover this one. He would tear the ass off this one...
This is such a hot song!
Damn, this rocks!
And what a pain it is to do forum searches for a name like The The... :P
hound dog....slow dog...dog of lust...black dog?
this is a great classic, more the the please
this is why i always will love radioparadise. the the! only station i know who plays it. nice surprise :)

Wow. I think you're the only "Harp Snob" I've ever known. You rip on the Pretenders for their HARMONICA on "Middle of the Road". Loosen up !!!!
I'm gonna have to back up Algrif on this one. It does sound like a kid on the harmonica. I know, because I wrote this exact song on a harmonica when I was about 6 years old. The only difference is that my version of this song was about 2 hours long. Would you like to listen to my version?
