Poor Old Lu - Shine

'Shine' was written awhile before Mindsize was recorded and, in fact, had no ties (musically) to any other songs that we had written. It was set apart in that it featured piano, something we hadn't had much of before...

Poor Old Lu - Sickly

'Sickly' was written entirely in the studio over the course of a few hours. The guys (Aaron, Nick & Jesse) began to jam on a moody song in the main room while I (Scott) tried to work out a suitable melody and lyrics...

Poor Old Lu - Slipknot

Of all the Poor Old Lu songs to show up on Napster in great number, this one did. I always found that strange until I heard that there was also a band called Slipknot. I can only imagine all those people who downloaded...

Poor Old Lu - Slow

This song is probably one of the 'filler' tracks on 'Sin'. It wasn't a single. It wasn't much of a concert hit. In fact, this song was rarely mentioned at all. Why is that? Who knows. Maybe it's just not that good. It...

Poor Old Lu - So Good To See Me

This song never really went anywhere. Definitely the song that no one could remember the name of, it didn't accomplish a whole lot. Lyrically, this song is obviously a farce. Taking 'selfism' and putting it into the...

Poor Old Lu - Sometimes Cry

Another song that had been recorded previously, it first appeared on our 1992 independent release, Star-Studded-Super-Step. Sometimes Cry was a fairly popular song in concert, partially because of the catchy chorus. The...

Poor Old Lu - Speak Soft

(lyrics by The Swoon) A wonderful song. Although The Swoon only recorded one album that we know of, it was all that we needed. In fact, it was difficult to pick which track to record... we just knew that we wanted to...

Poor Old Lu - Sunlight And Shadows

I've been mixed in dark and light today, you know And I'm sure it does not please or bless or show Still there's something to be said However far beyond my nose, I know Have you become so dull, so cold? Does the truth...

Poor Old Lu - The Waiting Room

She was staring at the ceiling I was staring at the floor He was fixed in thought and wonder Of what lied behind the door There was a man with little movement I knew I'd seen him here before The people with the...

Poor Old Lu - The Weeds That Grow Around My Feet

wrapped up in my self instead and if i fall this time will it be the last time for this crime anger has more of my soul than i ever wished it would hold and as i let it go and watch how it grows it won't fold do i love...

Poor Old Lu - This Theatre

This theatre Is so run down The grabbing hands Oh the people of this town My costume is on And the scenery shines They all wait for me To say my lines Countless in numbers Are the laughter and tears The emotions so...

53

Poor Old Lu - Thoughtless

Much of the songwriting for 'Sin' can be broken up into three parts. A few songs were written shortly after Mindsize was recorded, during various tours, etc.. A large majority of the songs were written in the two weeks...

54

Poor Old Lu - To Be Awake

First released on Star-Studded-Super-Step, 'To Be Awake' was already a bit of a token song for us by the time that we re-recorded it for Mindsize. A tad bit folky, with a bit of a rock vibe, 'To Be Awake' was quite...

Poor Old Lu - Today

It is the sweetest thing to know that To know it is right And what a sight To step ahead and see the sun, now Not a cloud in mind Or waiting on time I've emptied my hands And now I can, I can receive The most amazing...

Poor Old Lu - Tried & True

This song was one of the tracks that had some arrangement changes between the demo versions and the version that ended up on Mindsize. It was for the better, I think. In retrospect, this is one of my least favorite...

Poor Old Lu - What If Uncle Ben Had Lived

This song has always had a very emotional vibe to it, mainly because of the title, but also because of the melancholy feel. Actually, the title comes from a long running band joke. In the 80's, Marvel released a series...

Poor Old Lu - Where Were All Of You

As one of the successful singles off of 'Sin', 'Where Were All Of You' may be one of the most representative songs of what Poor Old Lu's sound is like. Aggressive. Dreamy. Deep. Poppy. Something like all of that, but...
