bio
el "Low Rock" es una combinacin nica de jazz, blues y pop/rock propia de Morphine, mezclada con letras irnicas y oscuramente cmicas. Su sonido sin guitarras presenta una combinacin inusual de saxo bartono, percusin y bajo. Morphine se form en Boston en 1990, sus integrantes son: Mark Sandman (vocalista, bajo) y Dana Colley (saxofn). Jerome Dupree (batera), abandon el grupo en 1991 antes de la realizacin de su lbum debut, Good. Mientras que con Good, Morphine obtuvo una crtica notable y substancial en el entorno underground, no lograron con cualquiera de sus realizaciones subsecuentes entrar en el gusto masivo. Luego de la realizacin de Good, la banda reemplaz a Dupree por Billy Conway, un integrante de una de las bandas de Sandman. En 1992 Morphine realiza Cure For Pain, junto con una extensa gira, recibiendo alguna atencin por parte de la crtica, llegan a vender ms de 300,000 copias alrededor del mundo, logrando buenas posiciones en los top diez de muchos pases, con el sencillo Buena. Las producciones que siguen son Yes y Like Swimming. En Julio 3 de 1999, Mark Sandman tuvo un ataque cardiaco sobre el escenario en Palestrina, Italia. El tena en ese momento 46 aos. Morphine realiza de manera pstuma su ltimo lbum llamado The Night, en el ao 2000. Luego de la muerte de Sandman, el resto de los miembros de Morphine se reagruparon para continuar grabando bajo el nombre de Twinemen.

a good woman is hard to find. a good woman is hard to find. she was heavy, on the back beat. see played me just like a tambourine. well, she took me to church, prayed till it hurt. a good woman is hard to find. a good woman is hard to find. i'll live to love another one more time. a good woman is hard to find. she was a helluva woman, from a helluva town. she took me all the way, it was a long way down. she makes me wonder, wonder, all day long. can a good woman, ever be found? can a good woman, never be found? she was beauty and adventure. she seemed so glad to be alive. i want to be happy, but not all the time. a good woman is hard to find. a good woman is hard to find. i'll live to love another one more time. a good woman is hard to find. she wrapped me up. saved me for later. left me no way to penetrate her. guess that was what i needed at the time. a good woman is hard to find. a good woman is hard to find. i'll live to love another one more time. a good woman is hard to find.

07. rope on fire

hand over hand up the lifeline, luckily the knots stay tight. silhouettes of the two of us climbing, climbing up a rope on fire. climbing up a rope on fire. trapped in a room in a fortress, running outta air to breathe. only seconds to go and we'll break free, i didn't think that we would reach. only the two of us can disconnect the bomb. and save ourselves before the oxygen is gone. i'll call for backup, you start to scream. it's not the first time we've been in this dream. she ripped the wings right off my back. she whispered deep, keep it on the track. she said you're no angel, no angel anymore. all the wheels are coming loose. close-up shot of a burning fuse. the sky is filled with question marks. will the chains come apart? these few seconds that i've left to go. flames and chaos down below. and the earth opens wide. got to climb a rope on fire. look at the clock. look at the clock. make it to the car but the car won't start. me try to move the car but there's no more time. we'll have to climb a rope on fire. hand over hand up the lifeline, luckily the knots stay tight.

08. i'm yours, you're mine

on my fingertips. on the tip of my tongue. i register your every touch. i hear your smell. i hear your smile. fast as light. two hundred miles. and all across that line. stretched between your bed and mine. all alone just for tonight. i'm yours and you're mine. i got birds that shiver in a forest so thick. i got hands full of magic tricks. and i'll part those branches with my hands. clear the land mines from your path. and all across that line. stretched between your bed and mine. all alone just for tonight. i'm yours and you're mine. and all across that line. stretched between your bed and mine. all alone just for tonight. i'm yours and you're mine. on my fingertips on the tip of my tongue. i register your every touch. i'll row the boat across the lake. we got smoke, we got perfume in our wake. and all across that line. stretched between your bed and mine. all alone just for tonight. i'm yours and you're mine.

09. the way we met

no there's nothing too romantic about the way we met. that's not to say it doesn't make a certain sense. maybe it's just the kind of people that we are. that's not to say whether it's right or wrong. it's not right or wrong. it's not right or wrong. there's no cute story that we tell together. laughing and finishing each other's sentences so charmingly. truth is it was all an accident. just like it is for everybody else. but then again it was all and accident. just like the way it is for everybody else. later we had toast, took turns sitting on the windowsill. like two fields of wheat, sent signals cross the kitchen sharp and sweet. there's no cute story about the way we met.

10. slow numbers

lazy boys and shy dianes. one at a time, single file. they counted the low numbers as they walked by. i count a high number. a low number. among the slow numbers. the number four means nothing to me but the number four means death to chinesse. number seven is lucky in japan. here we don't give a damn. but on the elevator, no thirteenth floor. on the elevator, no thirteenth floor. thirteenth going up. going up... going up... relaxing as i wait in line. some of the numbers lose their smiles. specially the numbers one through nine. because they're only seating parties of ten or higher. for the dancing the question mark sticker and the mermaid kickers. the number four means nothing to me but the number four means death to chinese. number seven's lucky in japan. here we don't give a damn. but on the elevator, no thirteenth floor. on the elevator, no thirteenth floor. going up... going up... going up...

11. take me with you

you want to begin again. pretend you're innocent. if you believe, you can convince yourself. i'm sure you can convince yourself. this town never gave you much back. just rumors and a whispering attack. this town is not your friend. never mind the loose ends. take me with you when you go now. don't leave me alone. i can't live without you. take me with you, take me with you when you go. and i don't care about the things i leave at home. cause things can't really keep you company when you're alone now. you want to burn your bridges? i'll help you start the fire.
