Day 19 - Favourite collaboration

Did RIDE ever collaborated with someone for a song? I really couldn't remember any except for the R.I.D.E. track on TINASP featuring Christine Mary Biller... which I certainly would not claim as my favourite...!

Day 18 - Favourite lyrics

'Make your body a blanket, let me rest my head The world can wait for just a few minutes more, they might as well be dead'

- Close My Eyes (Ride EP 1990)

'Catch me, in another dream, I'm pulled away Hold me, gently take me through another day However hard I try, I crawl when I should fly I wander through my days, pulled a million ways'

- Paralysed (Nowhere 1990)

'They'll never invade her now'

- Sennen (Today Forever EP 1991)

'If I've seen it all before, why's this bus taking me back again? If I don't need anymore, why's this bus taking me back again?'

- Twisterella (Going Blank Again 1992)

'Looking for me in the words I'm reading Shying away from the life I'm leading here Fall on the floor, stare up at the ceiling I know that my eyes are too wide to see things clear'

- Howard Hughes (Going Blank Again 1992)

[this-bus-is-taking-me-back-again]

Day 16 - Favourite bonus track

If we're not counting the tracks in EPs... it would be Let's Get Lost from the Carnival of Light period!

Day 15 - Favourite drum part

Such a difficult question to answer. Loz is a very cool and talented drummer, actually my favourite drummer of all time. If I must choose...

Dreams Burn Down - Nowhere (1990)

Leave Them All Behind - Going Blank Again (1992)

Chelsea Girl - Ride EP (1990)

Cool Your Boots - Going Blank Again (1992)

I wish I could air-drumming. Every time I see Ride live there are always people air-drumming at the front row.

Day 14 - Favourite bass part

Leave Them All Behind - Going Blank Again (1992)

very cool bass line and it also has a bass solo!

and... I was surprised to find out that the riff of Last Frontier was played by bass! Steve you're such a cool bassist!! Can't wait to hear his new solo album.

(Another) 'Sennen' (Ride song, 1991) Inspired Fanart

Eyes aflame she ran away I will be where I want to be Need some space to be alone Need a place to call my own

Can't stay here another day Think awhile walk away People wonder where she's gone All they see's a strange shaped stone

They'll never invade her now

[this-bus-is-taking-me-back-again]

Ride in Japanese music magazine PopGear in 1992
