I was at the McCarren pool concert on August 12, 2006 and I'm almost positive he said Pink Steam was about that. Or rather, he said it was about some girl he met in 1978 who meant a lot to him... I'm guessing Kim.

I think that could be about a swedish girl he dated before Kim... or was 'Incinerate' about that? I don't know.

sugar kane?


Youre perfect in the way, a perfect end today
Youre burning out their lights, and burning in their eyes
I love you sugar kane, a-comin from the rain
Oh kiss me like a frog, and turn me into flame
I love you all the time, I need you 8 to 9
And I can stay all night, yr body shining

And I know
Theres something down there sugar soul
Back to the cross a twisted lane
There something down there sugar kane

Im back again in love, Im back again a dove
Whered you get your light, your smilin sugar life
Another lovers day, another cracked up night
Every night I say, the light is coming

And I know
Theres something down there sugar cone
Back to the cross a twisted lane
Theres something down there sugar kane

Hey angel come and play, and fly me away
A stroll along the beach, until youre out of time
I love you sugar kane, a crack into the dream
I love you sugar kane, I love you sugar kane
I love you sugar kane, I love you sugar kane
I love you sugar kane, I love you sugar

wasnt that about marlyn monroe.

i dont know, lets just guess, ill say 100%

the ikara cult 02.12.2007 02:10 PM

100% was about that bloke in a load of the goo/dirty videos who got shot wasnt it?

Bal 02.12.2007 02:31 PM

sugar kane is about marilyn monroe for sure
100 percent is more about Joe Cole. a friend of the band who got shot.
JC was written for him as well.

maybe 'i love her all the time'?

thank you, took 14 posts til someone thought of it, think people think

jennthebenn 02.12.2007 03:35 PM

haha, yeah, in the recent issue of bust the interviewer asks if their
relationship has inspired many of their song lyrics, and thurston mentions
"i love her all the time."

thurston and kim met in 80/81, so the "pink steam" dedication couldn't have
been her. me and pantophobia were at that show too, and the
previous one as well. most fun i've had in a pool ever.

morelikely girl before Kim. you know, the one he was obsessed with for a while (she lived in same block as Thurson, when he moved to ny) .... and then he met Kim.

ditto to Diamond Sea as well...but I'd like to think that song was written about me personally :)

Definitively "I love her all the time."
If you look at the lyrics booklet in "Bad Moon Rising," you'll see a stenciled photo of Kim in red over and aside the lyrics of "I love her all the time." So this is it.
