FUN LOVIN' CRIMINALS

COME FIND YOURSELF



What's the album name about?
I haven't managed to find any quotes specifically about the name of the album, although I think it's fairly self-explanitory, especially as there's a song with the same title on the album. I did manage to find a couple of very early quotes about what releasing the first album meant to Huey and Fast: " Huey: We like it, it's what we were doing at the time. It's our gift to the world. Fast: It's out gift to ourselves too. When we doing our thing three years ago, we didn't have the luxury of having Steve's drums down on tape. Huey: It's something we always wanted to hear finished.

The Songs

The Fun Lovin' Criminal


Passive/Aggressive

The Grave and The Constant


Scooby Snacks


"Remember that Scooby Doo thing and the Scooby Snacks that used to calm everybody down, like when Shag and Scoob were buggin? What I meant it as when I wrote the song was as a bank robbery on Valium. It means different things around the country. Sometimes it means pot and I heard in one place it means Crystal Meth."

Smoke 'em

Bombin' The L
"This is a song about the subway in New York, it always arrives late, and when it does come, it's covered in graffiti"

I Can't Get With That

King of New York

�Mayor Rudy Juliani is taking over. He has the police on his side and they're cracking down on personal freedoms, under the guise of quality of life. New York is supposed to be the raw nerve, it's getting a little homogenised and the person responsible is our mayor. No one seems able to stop him, so he's the King Of New York.�

Unfortunately most of the interviews taken from the time of the release of CFY are no longer accessible on the internet, so quotes etc about the songs are very difficult to find, but if you find anything that I don't have, please mail me and I'll give you credit!
