Garbage built on the sonic landscapes of My Bloody Valentine, Curve, and Sonic Youth, adding a distinct sense of accessible pop songcraft. Garbage was the brainchild of producers Butch Vig, Duke Erikson, and Steve Marker. Initially, Garbage was an informal jam session between the three producers held in Marker's basement, but they eventually recruited vocalist Shirley Manson, who had previously sang with Angelfish and Goodbye Mr. MacKenzie. Vig is a native of Viroqua, WI, who learned to play piano as a child and drums as a teenager. He attended the University of Wisconsin briefly before pursuing a career in music instead. The first band he joined after leaving college was Spooner, who he played drums with. Also in Spooner was Erikson, who sang and played guitar with the band. Marker was a native of New York who moved to Wisconsin to attend college. He became a fan of Spooner and began recording their songs. Vig left Spooner shortly afterwards, but he kept in touch with the band. After a few years, Spooner became Firetown and Vig played drums in the new outfit. Firetown broke up in the late '80s, without achieving much success. Prior to the formation of Firetown, Vig and Marker bought an eight-track cassette recorder together and set up a makeshift studio in a local warehouse. This studio was dubbed Smart Studios and Vig recorded numerous local punk and alternative bands at the warehouse. By the late '80s, Smart had become one of the hippest recording studios in America. Many records released on Touch & Go, Sub Pop, and Twin/Tone, among other indie labels, were made at Smart. Vig and Smart broke into the big time in 1991, after he produced Nirvana's Nevermind. Nevermind elevated Butch Vig to the status of a superstar producer and for the next two years, he produced numerous American alternative superstars, including Sonic Youth, Smashing Pumpkins, and L7.
Shortly after Vig became a star, he and Marker began playing together, eventually asking Erikson to join them. Hence, Garbage was officially formed in 1993, after Erikson joined the duo. After a year of playing, they hired Shirley Manson after seeing Angelfish on MTV. Manson began her musical career at an early age, joining Goodbye Mr. MacKenzie as a teenager; she played keyboards and sang backing vocals in the band. For the next few years, she toured with the band before leaving to form Angelfish, whom she led through an eponymous 1994 album. Garbage recorded their debut album in late 1994 and early 1995. Their eponymous first album appeared in the fall of 1995 on Almo Sounds. After receiving support from radio and MTV, the album began to climb the charts toward the end of 1995, when the second single, "Queer," received heavy airplay. By the summer of 1996, Garbage had gone gold in the United States, and shortly afterward it achieved platinum status, as "Only Happy When It Rains" and "Stupid Girl" became radio hits. After a brief break, Garbage began work on their second album in the summer of 1997. The record, entitled Version 2.0, was released in May the following year, preceded by the single "Push It." Four years later, they issued a sophisticated third album, Beautiful Garbage, and the first single "Androgyny" became a moderate radio hit. Bleed Like Me followed in 2005.

As heaven is wide Nothing that you say will release you Nothing that you pray would forgive you Nothing's what your words mean to me Something that you did will destroy me Something that you said will stay with me Long after you're dead and gone If flesh could crawl My skin would fall From off my bones And run away from here As far from God As heaven is wide As far from God As angels can fly If holy is as holy does This house will burn straight down to hell Take it's conscience with it As it falls Nothing said could change the fact My trust was blind You broke the pact If God's my witness, God must be blind If flesh could crawl My skin would fall From off my bones And run away from here As far from God As heaven is wide As far from God As angels can fly I wish, I wish I wish, I wish Take it back, I dare you take it back No you can't?

Cup Of Coffee
You tell me you don't love me Over a cup of coffee And I just have to look away A million miles between us Planets crashing to dust I just let it fade away I'm walking empty streets Hoping we might meet I see your car parked on the road The light on at your window I know for sure that you're home But I just have to pass on by So no, of course, we can't be friends Not while I'm still this obsessed I guess I always knew the score This is how our story ends I smoke your brand of cigarettes And pray that you might give me a call I lie around in bed all day just staring at the walls Hanging round bars at night wishing I had never been born And give myself to anyone who wants to take me home So no, of course, we can't be friends Not while I still feel like this I guess I always knew the score This is where our story ends You left behind some clothes My belly somersaults When I pick them off the floor My friends all say they're worried I'm looking far too skinny I've stopped returning all their calls And no, of course, we can't be friends Not while I'm still so obsessed I want to ask where I went wrong But don't say anything at all It took a cup of coffee To prove that you don't love me

April Tenth It was April the tenth, I remember it well It was so cold that year It was colder than hell Things hadn't been good For you for a while 'Cause I'd been on tour I hadn't heard And Ruth dropped in With the letter you wrote And I read it aloud To prove that I could And we were both laughing 'Cause we know how you are We never thought Your quitting was good We thought that you knew you But I guess that we don't Are you heavenly or Just like the past? We called you "the black penny" Remember that? The sea is wide The streets are long There's blood in all our hands With the catalyst gone And only what's left to us Is history built on dust On sweat and on poet's words Great nations and governments [sweet?] Lies and victories, Eager and keen to please Those [junkies?] Are everywhere With their thousand-yard stare We all end up the same Like little lambs to meet their end

Begging Bone
You're just like a dog With your begging bone You're always chasing psychos down those rabbit holes You like them the best 'cause they are dangerous And they get off on you and your subservience What can I do? Can't make a monkey out of you I can't keep you on a leash Can't lock you in your room I can't make you perfectly Suspicious of the world Can't teach you lessons That you never want to learn You started to believe That you're completely unlovable Which makes us want to laugh 'Cause you're adorable You say you've been depressed But no doubt you'll get over it And get back on your feet Just like a pugilist What can I do? Can't make a monkey out of you I can't keep you on a leash Can't lock you in your room I can't make you perfectly Suspicious of the world Can't teach you lessons That you never want to learn It's ok to be afraid Of what's inside another mind An invitation to discover And explore the other side It's ok to be afraid Of finding out you really care Like a hammer crashing down Between the clouds out of the air Pray that they come through Of course they never do Of course they never do (X 4)

Butterfly collector ( The Jam )
So you finally got what you wanted, You've achieved your aim by making the walk in line, And when you just can't get any higher, You use your senses to suss out this week's climber, And the small fame that you've acquired, Has brought you into cult status but to me you're still a collector. There's tarts and whores but you're much more, You're a different kind 'cause you want their minds, And you just don't care 'cause you've got no brains, It's just a face on your pillowcase that thrills you. And you've started looking much older, And you're fashion sense is second rate like your perfume, But to you in your own little dream world, You're still the queen of the butterfly collectors. You carry on 'cause it's all you know, You can't light a fire, you can't cook or sew, You get from day to day by filling your head, But you surely must know the thrill between your legs has worn off. And I don't care about morals, 'Cause the world's insane and we're all to blame anyway, And I don't feel any sorrow, Towards the kings and queens of the butterfly collectors. There's tarts and whores but you're much more, You're a different kind 'cause you want their minds, And you just don't care 'cause you've got no brains, It's just a face on your pillowcase that thrills you. You carry on 'cause it's all you know, You can't light a fire, you can't cook or sew, You get from day to day by filling your head, But you surely must know the thrill between your legs has worn off. And I don't feel any sorrow, Towards the kings and queens of the butterfly collectors.

Candy says ( Velvet Underground )
Candy says I've come to hate my body All that it requires in this world Candy says I'd like to know completely What others so discretely talk about I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly Over my shoulder I'm gonna watch them pass me by Maybe when i'm older What do you think I'd see If I could walk away from me Candy says I hate the quiet places That cause the smallest taste of what will be Candy says I hate the big decisions That cause endless revisions in my mind I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly Over my shoulder I'm gonna watch them pass me by Maybe when i'm older What do you think I'd see If I could walk away from me

Driving lesson
Car, car, car, car, car, car Let's get behind the wheel, We'll go driving To the mountains, To the rooftops. We can take it nice and slow, I'll be driving To the iceburgs, To the edges Car, get in the car, Car, get in the car. Heading to the clouds, Past the buildings By the harbor, Through the storm. Tear across the page, By the marker Leave the light on, By the boy's side. Car, get in the car, Car, get in the car. I can make an honest man of you, I can make you clean if you want me to, I can make you go very far, Just take the car. Get in the car, Car, get in the car Take the car ( gotta feel to make it real ) X9
Enough Is Never Enough
Searchin' for fun With nowhere to go, Got your leather boots on But what do you know And they're playing garbage on the radio Enter the dark You wanna run Enter the night Where nobody knows you Where the boys are and everybody's high If enough is never enough And you're down at heart If the world is getting you down Then come with us If enough is never enough And you're down at heart If the world is getting you down Then come with us Back to the bar Where the place is slamming All the pretty queens and the sluts are dancin' And the conscience of politicians' sly All sweat and lust and filthy habits All the wannabes are going to sell their package At the carnival of the lonely broken hearts If enough is never enough And you're down at heart If the world is getting you down Then come with us If enough is never enough And you're down at heart If the world is getting you down Then come with us If enough is never enough And you're down at heart If the world is getting you down Then come with us Come with us Come with us Come with us Come with us

In The Snow (Shirley Manson / Demo) I'm one to talk But you're so drunk you cannot walk And you make no sense Just slips and slurs between your lips And your eyes have shrunk To pins, like piss-holes in the snow And you're so fucked up You have no clue you missed my show Two gritty hands You've got them stuck inside my shirt And I bite my tongue 'Cause I know that love's supposed to hurt I'm feeling sick I don't like the way you look at her But you just laugh And stick your tongue inside my mouth If you don't want me, I don't care to know 'Cause in a moment I'll feel beautiful We both collide like we are crashing cars We fall together and forget ourselves And in a moment we feel something new There's no one else, there's only me and you But when we pull apart I feel unloved And you just become another thing I wish I hadn't done You take me home Like a piece of lint stuck on my clothes Put a record on And sit there mouthing all the words And it don't feel good As I press my back into the wall With a little love Better having that than none at all If you don't love me, I don't care to know 'Cause in a moment I'll feel beautiful We both collide like we are crashing cars We fall together and forget ourselves And in a moment we feel something new There's no one else, there's only me and you But when we pull apart I feel alive And you just become another thing I wish I hadn't done I wish I hadn't done It never lasts No one wants to feel unlovable But everybody has a place you cannot touch Everybody has a hungry mouth to feed We fall into bed like we are second best So once you rob the future So once your rob ourselves So in love with the problem We'll be solving all our lives

Kick my ass ( Vic chesnutt Cover ) I'm so sorry you had to kick my ass, You said I ruined your life, I didn't mean to do that, I had to untangle where we was intwined, It was strangling me Were you breathing so fine, The jam I was in When things weren't working out. Led me to the brunt Of your swinging bout. I'm so sorry, I regret everything, What can I do To have you take back that swing. I'm so sorry A scuffle ensued. But things are much better I guess thanks to you, The jam I was in When things weren't working out. Led me to the brunt Of your swinging bout. I'm so sorry you had to pull my hair. I had to take care of business, A lot of business giving there.

Wild horses
( Live Cover Edinburgh Secret Show 2002 / Rolling stones )
Childhood living It's easy to do The things you wanted I bought them for you Graceless lady You know who I am You know I can't let you Slide through my hand Wild horses Couldn't drag me away Wild horses Couldn't drag me away I watched you suffer A dull aching pain Now you're decided To treat me the same No sweeping exits Or offstage lines Could make me feel bitter Or treat you unkind Wild horses Couldn't drag me away Wild wild horses Couldn't drag me away I have my freedom But I dont have much time So let's do some living After we die Wild horses Couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses Couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses Couldn't drag me away Wild horses We want them someday
Witness To Your Love Was we ever so young We were tripping into town Back where The Canongate meets up With the dirty little side street I can't remember much Though I know we did like to shoplift We knew our lives stretched up to the stars And we were the masters of the universe Were we ever really that smart How did we come this far We would go skipping over the heart Over the city that shaped us We would go leaping into the arms Of anything that scared us So long before we learned the law Fearless and stupid and reckless and Free We were free So free We were free Ashes to ashes and dust to dust I was a witness to your love Ashes to ashes and dust to dust I was a witness to your love To your love Free We were free So free We were free We were so free you and me A witness to your love We were so free you and me A witness to your love We were so free you and me A witness to your love We were so free you and me We were so free you and me You're on patrol for me I'm on patrol for you You're on patrol for me I'm on patrol for you

You Don't Own Me (Lesley Gore cover / Shirley Manson & Fiona Apple / Live on Girlschool 2018 at Bootlet Theater, LA, 2018-02-03) You don't own me I'm not just one of your many toys You don't own me Don't say I can't go with other boys And don't tell me what to do Don't tell me what to say And, please, when I go out with you Don't put me on display 'cause You don't own me Don't try to change me in any way You don't own me Don't tie me down 'cause I'll never stay And I don't tell you what to say And I don't tell you what to do Just let me be myself That's all I ask of you I'm young and I love to be young I'm free and I love to be free To live my life the way that I want To say and do whatever I please Don't tell me what to do And don't tell me what to say And when I go out with you Don't put me on display I don't tell you what to say And I don't tell you what to do Just let me be myself That's all I ask of you I'm young and I love to be young I'm free and I love to be free To live my life the way that I want To do and say whatever I please You don't own me You don't own me You don't own me You don't own me You don't own me
