Really Red – Crowd Control / Corporate Settings is one of the early singles in Texas punk rock from 1979. This single is one of the first records among their accomplishments. The songs are about getting the crowd hype, feeling the music, and paying your way in the music scene. 250 copies of this single were issued as a “7 vinyl.
Crowd Control is about getting the crowd hype, feeling the music, and paying your way in the music scene. The song is mostly about getting the crowd hype and feeling the music though.
You feel the music in their lyrics whether it be a beat or a chord that you hear. These lyrics explain how you can feel the music, “Beat plays to you/Let it go right through you/Strike a chord in you/It’s time to move, move, move you”
Really Red tells us to ignore those people who are always watching you. Read these lyrics, “Ignore those people/Always watching, watching, watching/What a bore - those people/Always watching you/Ignore those people/Always watching, watching, watching you”
Really Red also tells us to ignore boring people. They are out of patience with crowd control these days. “You don’t need no Saturday night lessons/What you don’t know is just for terminal bores/And you don’t need no good advice for you/I’m out of patience with crowd control these days” Are you out of patience with crowd control these days?
Every time you pay buy a ticket to attend a concert of a band, you are paying their wages. These lyrics say how you pay for their career. “You pay the ticket/You pay their wages”
Corporate Settings is about paying your way in the music scene and paying dues. Corporate Settings is an example of one of the greatest hours in Texas punk rock history.
I rate this single 5/5*****!!
