My boat's capsized, it's gonna sink to the bottom
I can see the lights on the shore getting farther away

I don't know if I'll make it home tonight
But I know I can swim under the Tahitian moon

I came out here tonight to look for my friend
I don't know if I'll ever get to see him again

I don't know if I'll make it home tonight
But I know I can swim under the Tahitian moon
One last time under the Tahitian moon

The sea is a very easy place to disappear
Drift away, fall asleep or make your peace

I came out here tonight to look for my friend
I don't know if I'll ever get to see him again

I don't know if I'll make it home tonight
But I know I can swim under the Tahitian moon
I can swim under the Tahitian moon
I can swim under the Tahitian moon
I can swim under the Tahitian moon
I can swim

All I'm hearing is "Under the Tahitian Girl" which is no doubt pleasant but probably wrong lyrically. ;)
Her skirt looks a bit sticky though...

Yes! Funny how the older I get the more I like this. I thought it was supposed to work the other way around. 8.

Your loss. Both Porno for Pyros albums are outstanding. Very nearly as good as Jane's best stuff.

The perfect song for me.

Love Porno for Pyros. It's good music - just totally different than Jane's Addiction. Still moving, high quality stuff, though.

This IS lame...
I think its excellent. I loved Janes and p for P. The show for this album had Mike Watt playing bass. It was a great show! P for P is just not as bombbastic as Janes.

I just love all the comments (from any song played on this station) about how it's not the right song for the time. People! This is a global station and its on 365/24/7. Anyway, these guys rock. Very nice textured guitar sound. Solid 8.

Lame? NOT. It all means much more than you know.

Thanks RP! I was researching Mid-Oceanic ridges when this came on. It took me away from my studies.

It sounds like they know how to make music but most of time they don't. A self-destructive bunch in spite of themselves? Kind of sounds like it.

Extra totally weak. And super lame. Once Perry Ferrell decided it was a smart move to end Jane's Addiction, I lost all interest.

Reminds me of a hot and muggy summer in Baltimore in 1996... Damn, that town was a dump.

Man, haven't heard these guys in ages. Better than I remembered.

sad that second bands of charismatic frontmen rarely live up to the glory of their first bands. this song is pretty groovy, though, esp for p4p, who i generally find irritating to listen to. 6

Decent song, just in the wrong line up.

Ahh, brings back memories of driving on the back roads late at night when I was in high school, windows down, radio blaring. Love this track.

I'm the bratty type that definitely prefers Jane's Addiction to PFP, but this is still a 9. Somebody please upload Kimberly Austin.

I have to confess to the same. Unfortunately, I think the last JA album might have been close. ...but I loved this PFP album. I've got Bali Eyes.

I've said it before, I'll type it again.... If Perry Farrell were to take a dump on a plate, I would buy it. Through Janes Addiction, Porno for Pyros, and on his own, the man just knows how to make good music. Not my opinion, but seriously fact.

I disagree, LOVE jane's Addiction, and this track- but the rest of that album is forgettable, saw him play it live at the Tibetan Freedom concert, and even live, the rest of the songs got me wishing that PFP was playing.
I disagree with your disagreement! I haven't thought about this album for a while, but now I must get it out and enjoy the w h o l e CD!

WOW. i haven't heard this in so long that it took me almost the whole intro to remember what it was. AWESOME. this was such a great album (for the most part). i'd love to hear other tracks from it if they're out there...
100 Ways is still making the rounds on the listener review channel. here's hoping it makes the cut.
