Queens Of The Stone Age - Make It Wit Chu
















One of the things I love about seeing band live is the music they play in between the support acts and the headliner. Some times it sucks. Some times it rocks. Sean and I were talking the other day about how cool it was when Helmet played the entire Sound Of Music soundtrack before their 1997 show at Selinas.

The last two nights I went to see Foo Fighters at The Acer Arena. Great shows that im going to write about shortly. But what rocked was the tunes the audio crew played before and after their set. There was some Clash, some Pantera (fucking A - its always great to hear Domination live in an arena, even if its off a CD) and some Queens Of The Stone Age. You may recall Dave Grohl played drums on their Songs For The Deaf album back in 2002. Great great album, probably their best work if you ask me.

So after the show on both nights the audio crew played one of the coolest Queens Of The Stone Age tracks since the Songs For The Deaf album - Make It Wit Chu. I know the title makes it sound like a stupid Pussycat Dolls song. But its not. Its a damn cool song full of hooks and some really laid back piano loop playing underneath the bass line. Me likey like lots.






"Make It Wit Chu"

You wanna know if I know why?
I can't say that I do,
I don't understand the evil eye,
Or how one becomes two.
And I just can't recall what started it all,
Or how to begin in the end,
I ain't here to break it,
Just see how far it will bend,
Again and again,

I wanna make it,
I wanna make it wit chu,
Anytime, anywhere,
I wanna make it,
I wanna make it wit chu,

Sometimes the same is different,
but mostly it's the same
these mysteries of life, that just ain't my thing
if I told you that I knew about the sun and the moon,
I'd be untrue,
The only thing I know for sure
Is what I wanna do,
anytime, anywhere and I say

I wanna make it, (again and again)
I wanna make it wit chu,
Anytime, anywhere,
I wanna make it, (again and again)
I wanna make it wit chu,
I wanna make it, (anytime, anywhere)
I wanna make it wit chu,
I wanna make it,
I wanna make it wit chu.

I wanna make it, (again and again)
I wanna make it wit chu,
I wanna make it, (anytime, anywhere)
I wanna make it wit chu,
I wanna make it, (again and again)
I wanna make it wit chu,
I wanna make it, (again and again and again and again and again..)
