The Animals Lyrics


It was pretty big news in music when, in 1983, IRS
announced it had signed the original (and reformed) classic
rock band The Animals.

The Animals were part of the U.K. blues scene of the early
60s and one of the most noteworthy bands of the British
Invasion. Originally known as the Alan Price Combo, they
formed in early 1962 in Newcastle-upon- Tyne, England, the
group changed its name to The Animals when Burdon joined
later in 1962. The group's inspiration and much of its
early repertoire came from American blues and R&B. Eric More...

Not exactly a tribute to military chaplains | Reviewer: Paul
    ------ About the song Sky Pilot performed by The Animals

Could not allow the previous review to go unchallenged. This was an antiwar indictment of the hypocrisy of military chaplains and the Viet Nam War. And that is how I found them to be in my own experience.

Historical context | Reviewer: Dr.Dan
    ------ About the song Monterey performed by The Animals

I was 12 when this came out and the music at the time pissed off the establishment. It was so righteous to hear the names of OUR bands being honoured by the Animals -- the Who, Stones, Hendrix. People singing about US rather than Sinatra and strangers in the night. Wally needs some historical context to understand how important this was as WE celebrated our coming out.

the nashville teens | Reviewer: david hughes
    ------ About the song Tobacco Road performed by The Animals

i dont ever recall the animals performing this song,but i do rememember the nashville teens singing it,ive had many of eric burdon and the animals records in my time,even had one album where the song when i was young was on it,extreamly hard to get an original recording of this,but im 99% sure that it was the nashvile teens who sung it first,and sure the animals never performed it,unless they covered it at a concert.

JUST HEARD THIS "BLAST" FROM THE PAST | Reviewer: "BRUCE
    ------ About the song Monterey performed by The Animals

I had't heard this in a million years.Bought back alot a memories... read earlier posts dating back to Wally... (well every one has an opinion I suppose and we got to hear Wally's... NEXT..LOL )I'm glad the song makes no sense to him...thats how the universe works to keep in balance. Its the music and the performance so just tune out next time it comes on the radio and I will listen for the 2 of us. Peace out Dude

    ------ About the song Don’t Bring Me Down performed by The Animals

A perfect example of how the American R&B music scene of the 1950's and 60's influenced the British. The Animals sold it back to the white boomers here in the US. In my opinion, they smoked The Rolling Stones who were basically a blues band doing american R&B covers. The Animals were very soulful especially on this tune.

Meanwhile at the Whisky-A-Go-Go | Reviewer: Jivaroo
    ------ About the song Story of Bo Diddley performed by The Animals

Bo Diddley and Johnny Otis confronted Eric Burdon of the Animals at the Whiskey in Hollywood because the above song uses lyrics they wrote without due legal credit or consideration.
Eric Burden: Man, music is life.
Bo and Johnny: Man, music is business!

My world would never be the same | Reviewer: Dave
    ------ About the song Monterey performed by The Animals

Where and how old were you June 1967? I was 18 in L.A. I got a contact experience through this perfect song,stoked when it came on the radio. Wally, it's about the picture not the poetry, the energy not the meter, the breakthrough, not the train wreck. Though I did not attend I made up by visiting the central coast for decades before eventually moving to MONTEREY (and I'm not dreaming).

The Song | Reviewer: Prosper
    ------ About the song House of the Rising Sun performed by The Animals

This is one of my top 5 favorite songs of all time. I don't care who wrote because the Animals play it so bloody well. I want this song to be played at my funeral. Also, this song would be great to listen to during a zombie attack. I do not know why but it would be, I think. By the way, Left 4 Dead 2 is set in New Orleans,so yeah. Just thought I'd say that. Maybe I'm an idiot.
