Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (Live)The Cardigans

[Verse 1]
You've seen life through distorted eyes
You know you had to learn
The execution of your mind
You really had to turn
The race is run the book is read
The end begins to show
The truth is out, the lies are old
But you don't want to know

[Chorus]
Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
And fill your head all full of lies

[Verse 2]
The people who have crippled you
You want to see them burn
The gates of life have closed on you
There is just no return

[Chorus]
Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
And fill your head all full of lies

[Chorus]
Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
And fill your head all full of lies

[Outro]
No one, no one, nobody
No one, no one, nobody
No one, no one, nobody
Nobody would ever let you know
No one, no one, nobody
When you ask the reasons why
No one, no one, nobody
They just tell you that you're on your own
No one, no one, nobody
And fill your head all full of lies
And fill your head all full of lies
Full of lies
All full of lies
Of lies, of lies
Of lies, of lies

The Cardigans

One of the most pleasing pop groups of the ‘90s, the Cardigans specialized in sugary confections that would grow annoying very quickly if they weren’t backed by solid musicianship and clever arrangements. The band’s 1995 breakout album, Life, reflected the Cardigans at their most saccharine – the sunny disposition of vocalist Nina Persson being the major argument in favor – and critics inserted the group into the space age pop revivalist camp. the Cardigans later proved that they were more difficult to pigeonhole, however.

Even the band’s origins showed that their later appearance was quite misleading; two heavy metal fanatics formed the group in October 1992 in Jonkoping, Sweden. Guitarist Peter Svensson met bassist Magnus Sveningsson in a hardcore group, though he had previously trained in music theory and jazz arranging. The two later grew tired of metal and decided to form a pop band with vocalist Nina Persson – an art-school friend who had never sung professionally – plus keyboard player Lars-Olof Johansson and drummer Bengt Lagerberg.

All five Cardigans moved into a small apartment in 1993 and began recording a demo tape that entered the hands of producer Tore Johansson later that year. He liked what he heard and invited the group to record at his Malmö studio. Signed to the dance-oriented Stockholm label, the Cardigans released Emmerdale in May 1994. The single “Rise & Shine” became a hit on Swedish radio soon after the release of the LP, and a readers poll in Sweden’s Slitz magazine voted Emmerdale the best album of 1994.
