MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1 — “Hippychick”)

By October of 1990…

British group Soho was making some noise…

with their song…

“Hippychick.”

(Music Cut #2 — “Hippychick” guitar intro)

And there’s something about that guitar riff…

that just might sound a whole lot familiar to some of you.

Because Soho borrowed it

(Music Cut #3 – The Smiths, “How Soon Is Now?”)

Yep! That’s The Smiths!

Soho sampled Johnny Marr’s unmistakable guitar…

and turned one of alternative rock’s moodiest riffs…

into a dance-floor hit.

(Music Cut #4 — “Hippychick”)

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
“Your life revolves around a force of oppression
And I won’t deal with true blue devils of correction.” – SoHo – “Hippychick”
