I can't believe that no-one put this up for #alternateFridayMusic so I'm dipping in again, because it's just sitting there.
You pour heart out writing a plaintive rock / love song in the 70's, even going so far as to name it Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again replete with Renoir references. The song's a hit, the band's a success and you take it on the road...
...and you're met with #vitriol by your fans.
every time you play the song.
Even in the year you died, the band replaced you with some other bloke and while sounding worse than a cover band of themselves, the audience is still at it:
The Angels - Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again - The Gov - Adelaide, 2014
I mean, FFS, the uploader named it after the audience chant - not the song title 🤣
50 years after the song was released, 12 years after you died, it's the still the audience chant that's being remembered. Sorry Doc 🤷🤣

The Angels - Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again - RAGE AUSTRALIAN MUSIC WEEK
#AlternateFridayMusic#Vitriol
The Alan Parsons Project -
I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You
I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You
Another pick for this week's #alternateFridayMusic theme, #vitriol. This tale of revenge made it to #3 on the Billboard soul chart in 1972:
Laura Lee: Rip Off (1972)

Laura Lee - "Rip Off" (1972)
This week's #alternateFridayMusic theme is #vitriol. Rosco Gordon had the only #1 r&b hit of his career with this song:
"I'm gonna load my pistol
Gonna sharpen my knife
I'm gonna get that man that's got my wife"
Roscoe Gordon: Booted (1951)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hjJS5cEPHg
Gordon recorded two versions of the song that came out simultaneously on two different labels (Chess & RPM). This is the Chess version.

Stevie Wonder - You Haven't Done Nothing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ji2ma2mfyhU
The Jackson 5 are singing backup
"You Haven’t Done Nothin’,” the first single from his 1974 album, “Fullfillingness’s First Finale,” which would eventually become the second of his three ‘70s albums to win the Grammy for album of the year. It wasn’t just a blistering indictment of the then-current state of affairs, as his 1973 hit “Higher Ground” had been; “You Haven’t Done Nothin,’” in all its double-negative glory, was scathing political recrimination aimed directly at the White man in charge. “Richard Nixon,” it seemed to be saying, “this one’s for you.” Incidentally, the 37th US President resigned on August 8, 1974, the day after “You Haven’t Done Nothin’” was released as a single."

These guys were SO great at the Power To The People festival. Guess who they dedicated this one to? 😁

I had reached my destination, but I sat in my car in the parking lot to listen to this song when I first heard it.
Without Me - Halsey
#alternatefridaymusic #vitriol
You're So Vain - Carly Simon
#AlternateFridayMusic #vitriol AFI - I Hope You Suffer
The #AlternateFridayMusic cue is #vitriol
Oh, I have an obvious one for this.
Bluejuice - Vitriol
There's bound to be a chemist or spelunker among us this #AlternateFridayMusic
Eat your heart out and go to 11 with some #vitriol to grease the cogs.
Here's a trash classic:

#AlternateFridayMusic
The cue is #Vitriol
I hate racist blokes, telling tasteless jokes
And explaining where people belong
I hate ignorant folks, who pay money to see gigs
And talk through every fucking song
I hate people in night clubs, snorting coke
And explaining where your going wrong
Well if you agree, then come hating with me
And feel free to sing along
And I hate pointless status updates on Facebook
FYI we were never "m8"s
We pretend to be friends on the internet
When in real life, we have nothing to say
To each other, oh brother I have love for my mother
For good times, for music and my mates
Yeah I laugh, and live and I have love to give
But sometimes all you can do is hate
Well I hate them fussy eaters, you cook them fajitas
They only eat pizza and chips
I hate stepping outside, for a smoke and some guy
Coughs, like your lungs are his
And I hate queuing up, for festival toilets
Especially when you need to shit
And I hate the X-Factor, for murdering music
You bunch of money grubbing pricks
And I hate them magazines, aimed at insecure teens
That make ten year old′s race to grow up
Hey kids, let's all be anorexic or better
Eat chocolate until you throw up
Keep your Hollywood stars, and their stupid cars
And the Bo-tox, that makes them look fucked
Just grow old with grace, have you seen Cher′s face
It looks like it's been hit by a truck
Passenger - I Hate (Live from the borderline London)
#alternateFridayMusic and the cue this week is: #vitriol
Well, the first one to come to mind is Brian Eno's Dead Finks Don't Talk which was a kiss off to Bryan Ferry...
Now I needed to follow with a rowdier one. Here's Faith No More - The Gentle Art of Making Enemies. https://youtu.be/l_HtpFAlPWY

#vitriol
This #alternatefridaymusic is
#vitriol , and boy, I have a ton of hese. But let's start with this number, which sounds quiet, but is utterly devistating. Chat Pile and Hayden Pedigo - Demon Time.
Yet more #alternateFridayMusic 🎉
and the cue this week is: #vitriol
I'm doubling down on a bonus Oils track because the more I researched this cue, the more the vitriol built up:
Midnight Oil - Blossom and Blood
I'll let these lyrics from 1985 do the talking:
🎶 You the mothers who sent your sons
Wipe away your tears
For those who fought and those who fell
Become our sons as well
You the warriors with your words
Throw away your spears
You talk of times of peace for all
And then prepare for war
All the people with dreams, all the mothers with sons
All the people with dreams never woken at night by the sound of guns
Like a child that's born on a moonless night
Like a child that's born, we parachute down to an unknown fight
This city of blossom and blood
This city suffered more than it should
These sidewalk silhouettes not washed away, not washed away
...
Whatever you've done, whatever you think you've done, whatever you've done
There's a hope in the heart says never again
Never again, whatever you say, whatever you say
It's the price of peace to remember that day 🎶
