On a club gig in London five years ago two people met in
the bar. They began talking about music and realized they
had the same music taste, Bob Marley, Pixies etc. The two
guys were Gavin Rossdale and Nigel Pulsford, the first
members of today's Bush. Next thing in the band history
that happened was that bassist Dave Parsons joined, coming
from the band Transvision Vamp. The three guys plus a
unknown drummer founded a rock group called the "Future
Primitive", but they later changed the name to Bush.
They had some songs and played at English bars, not making
any big money. At one gig, Robin Goodridge was in the
audience. He liked the music, but not the drummer, so got
backstage after the show and spoke to Gavin about what he
thought. After that, he was a member More...
Review about Bush Great song | Reviewer: Nick
------ About the song Letting The Cables Sleep performed by Bush
Great song sure it helped alot of people. Like I seen someone say Ive had quite a few things happen and its like I had always tried getting attention cause I didnt wanna hold it in but now its like everything people say and do doesn't seem to matter anymore. I got in a car crash a while back and I seen it coming but even before and after it happened my heart never sped up or slowed down. It was a bad feeling to not care, I was surprised to see how many people felt the the same way about this song as I did
Steady love | Reviewer: Sacculina
------ About the song Comedown performed by Bush
The bass and guitars in this song are amazing. I'm hypnotized and I can't stop listening, as much as he doesn't want to "come down from this cloud." I think this song is about obsessive love, or one's strong feeling for someone who doesn't show the same passion. It's obsessive love because one finds solace in someone else, who gets them in a sense of high. You don't want to stop getting that feeling. And it's uncontrollable as you can listen to the steady beat through out the entire song, and occasionally hear the shrieking of the guitars, or some sort of dysfunction. Like love, it grows and can get intense. You get addicted to your love you can't enough of, even if it's a downfall or unhealthy. Simply strong emotions of love, or lack of love either way loves a drug like ecstasy. You keep coming back. Beautiful, and complex song.
I found out 4 days ago that my mums battle with cancer was lost...
I have these brief moments where I forget the sadness but of course, they are brief moments after which, reality always slaps me straight back in the face...
It is made worse by the fact that I had only just worked up the courage to go see her..(I have been in denial and too scared to see her as I did not think my heart could cope)..I called, only to find out her funeral was in fact this saturday past...The same day that my gf and I were out playing badminton like I did not have a care in the world.
So as you can imagine I am struggling with a fair bit of anger, loss and confusion (amongst a myriad of emotions)...I keep having panic attacks and am sincerely experiencing pain like never before..I keep re-reading my mums letter, she told me she only had a few wks left and would love to hear from me...I got that the day of her funeral...I have no idea how long my ex had that before she passed it onto me ..I keep holding the letter and photo of her and I to my chest just hoping it makes me feel closer to her..knowing that she touched it..knowing that she probably used her last bit of energy to write it just kills me..
I miss her so much...I feel like such a little kid...and I hate that I didnt get to hold her hand as she passed, that she died thinking I had that letter and still refused to see her..this truly is the worst heartbreak one can experience..I doubt I will ever come to terms with this...she was cremated...my gf looked up and printed out her obituary for me...i cannot explain what it was like reading that..all I want to do is hug her and tell her I am so fucking sorry...I cant tell you how excited i was when I finally decided to go up there, the thought of holding her just filled me with so much joy. only to have it ripped away in the cruelest way imaginable..I still cannot fully digest any of this...
This song says everything I feel...pure heartbreak...
Silence is NOT the way | Reviewer: Callahan
------ About the song Letting The Cables Sleep performed by Bush
having battled with my own demons, this song really hits home. I never really wanted to bother anyone with my problems, addictions, depression, cutting . . . now I regret that decision. I hurt the people who love me the most. I am learning to allow others to help me, it's been a challenge, but worth it.

------ About the song Letting The Cables Sleep performed by Bush
My best friend commited suicide at the beginning of the year. We found this song in his Zen section on his comp. On his funeral they played this song also. So it gives a special meaning to me. He never contacted anyone or called someone before he commited suicide. I stay with one big question and that is why? A question that never will be answered.
So the lines:
Silence is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
are the things i think about. He was only 35years old, left his girlfriend and his daughter. R.I.P. DiGiTiZ. I'll hope u'll watch us and guard us. I hope that u found ur peace now.
Big man | Reviewer: Tyler
------ About the song Testosterone performed by Bush
One of Bush's more meaningful songs, in my opinion, and, also, one of their best.
On its meaning: I believe it has much of the same meaning as "Mr. Mustache" by Nirvana, which is basically anti-manly man, or, the media's definition of a man: violent, war loving, and basically all things considered "manly", and how absolutely stupid and self-centered most of it is, but, that's just my take.
Time to communicate | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Letting The Cables Sleep performed by Bush
This song is about a friend of Gavin's who was diagnosed with HIV but Gavin didn't know that until well into his friends illness. Once he did know he felt he didn't want to spoil or waste the amount of time he had left with is friend so he wants to let him know he is there for him for whatever time they have left. Some of the song's lyrics seem to be coming from the aftermath... Make time for those you care about, keep the lines/cables of communication open at all times and make sure you are approachable at all times about anything with those you care for.

------ About the song Swallowed performed by Bush
This song song starts of being vague and complex, using metaphors etc.
The song is so intense and powerful, especially at the end where complete honesty comes through.
It explains the whole song and everything the writer feels in a few soft sounding, hard hitting words.
"Gotta get away from here- Miss the one that i love A lot"
6teenstone is a hypnotic album it is. cold contagious is something hard to believe being 'made'. because i believe it had existed before the creation of time and a band called Bush discovered it in a trance (probably when they were painting-but released it in their second album). Cold Contagious must have been made by an advanced super consciousness and have found Bush as the medium to pass the message on to vertibrates in this here third dimension. dont get me wrong but Bush is one of the best band out there. i'l drink to bush all day. cheers!

------ About the song Letting The Cables Sleep performed by Bush
it was just so strange for me...I just found somewhere this song and I listened to it all day ...I just really liked the lyrics...and then, I went to the school (first day after summer vacation), and...the director came and said that one of my classmates committed a suicide one day before...we were celebrating the New Year's Eve together, etc..he seemed to be happy..he had lots of TRUE friends..nobody knew why...either now...it was 3 years ago..I can't forget it...and the lyrics..."silence is not the way, we need to talk about it"..

------ About the song Glycerine performed by Bush
these power chords and the structure there in have been used in so many songs, too many to count. gavin rossdale probably didnt steal this from journey. no offence but i think journey suck. they probably stole it from someone else anyway. big deal. bands intentionally or unintentionally steal from other bands all the time.

------ About the song Glycerine performed by Bush
Firstly, lots of bands and singers "borrow" bits, etc. for their songs, so even if the did intentionally "steal" from Journey, no big sin.
more importantly, this is hands down one of the best ever written, in my humble opinion.

This is a brilliant version, much more emotive than the Rolling Stones song. I also really like The Sundays' cover of this.

------ About the song Swallowed performed by Bush
Heart break in 2 words. Renderd into a poetic song of soul felt homage to the relationships that never lasted a lifetime, but taught deep life lessons, & deep perspective of the human condition. Love, & thanks to the band. Rock On, & Roll with this heavy flow called life. Your contribution is greatly appreciated. *Starry*

At the very first time I heard this song, it really got into my spines. This is really a great song. But I don't know if it has other versions or not. The one I heard was without drums and others.

I heard this in Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2. This is such a great song! I always liked the music in the background and the lyrics.

------ About the song Float performed by Bush
I think this is a widely underappreciated song. It beautifully captures the emotion and intensity of wanting to save someone lost in the rain, or loving someone enough to give yourself over for their sake.
i've love this song almost for 8 yrs now when one of my brothers play it at home. it reminds me so much my brothers that i cry everytime i listen to it because my youngest brother is now dead. it is a very touching meaninful song.
