Duff's "Believe in Me" single B-sides

[Bang Bang]

Anybody ever hear the bonus material on Duff's "Believe in Me" single?  He covered David Bowie's "Cracked Actor", and Prince's "Bambi".  Awesome stuff.  These two b-sides are omong the best of Duff's solo material.

I've got the Believe In Me cassette single which has Bambi on there, but not Cracked Actor. What does that song sound like?

Lyrics for Cracked Actor:


"Cracked Actor"

I've come on a few years from my Hollywood Highs
The best of the last, the cleanest star they ever had

I'm stiff on my legend,
the films that I made
Forget that I'm fifty
cause you just got paid

[CHORUS]
Crack, baby, crack,
show me you're real
Smack, baby, smack, is that all that you feel
Suck, baby, suck,
give me your head
Before you start professing
that you're knocking me dead

You caught yourself a trick down
on Sunset and Vine
But since he pinned you baby
you're a porcupine

You sold me illusions for a sack full of cheques
You've made a bad connection 'cause I just want your sex

[CHORUS]

[Bang Bang]

Bambi Lyrics:

I knew from the start
That I loved you with all my heart
But you were untrue.
You had another lover and she looked just like you
Bambi, can't you understand?
Bambi, it's better with a man

It's so hard to believe
Maybe it's because you're so young
Or maybe I'm just too naive
Who's to say, maybe you're really having fun

Bambi, can't you understand?
Bambi, it's better with a man

All your lovers--they look just like you
But they can only do the things that you do
Come on, baby, and take me by the hand
I'm gonna show what it's like to be loved by a man

Bambi, I know what you need
Bambi, maybe you need to bleed

Yeah!

[Fingers]

I never knew he recorded these-thanks for the info

[CheapJon]

why isn't all these threads about bands and stuff the VR members did before VR in the ex-gunners section?


if ya know what i mean

[Bang Bang]

I kind of agree, but that's the way this website has been set up by Jarmo I think.  Odd...

[Andreas - N.I.R.]

It's been a couple of years since I heard these two tracks. I think I have them on a CD somewhere (converted from mp3). Anyways, Cracked Actor is really, really great! IMO it's the best solo song Duff has released, not counting Neurotic Outsiders (seriously one of the most underrated bands ever).

[snakepipero]

[micfac]

it would be nice if somebody could share them - pm me please

Thanks for taking care of this.  O am having some trouble figuring out how to work Megaupload.  Hope everyone enjoys the songs.  Go Duff!  Sumo wrestler of beers!
