It is "sky diver, inside her"! Of course, very clearly heard as such. And makes a great line! Like Parachute Woman, "land on me tonight".

How many times has this been brought up!

It's definitely kissing cut in cans - once and for all - cut, not c--t, cans, not Cannes, it's Dietrich, it's the movies, it all fits

Just get a very good pair of headphones and listen, and listen again like I did, it's definitely not c--t!!

Cheers

This is what I always assumed. "Cut in cans" refers to movies, though admiteddly "c unt in Cannes" might be a better line!

AND, have Mick and Keith sung better harmony since "Casino"? I say NOT.

Is the pronouncement of the name of the city of Cannes in English the same as the word cans, just also the last s? Seems odd to me, in Dutch we pronounce the city's name exactly like the French do, of course without the S.

So I think too that it's Kissing cuts in cans, unless you English speaking people call Cannes the same as canscool smiley But it's no hanging matter.

Actually many Americans do miss prenounce it as Canz. And I think keith could be doing the classic Mick Americanism there.

Thats a whole other story Scilian. Actually seeing cvnt with your moniker reminds me of the episode of The Sopranos, where a war almost starts because of the rumor Junior likes going down on his women. Which is taboo with those Cosa Nostra dudes.

Casino Boogie, great title, referring of course to Le cote d'azur and its casinos. I've been there many times and the song simply IS le cote d'azur. Btw: I never was drugged up nor a millionaire and certainly not a tax exile (on whatever street). But I recognize the atmosphere of Le cote very well in this song. Everything in it fits: the lyrics, the pace, the guitars and the guitar solo towards the end.

For my money, that tasty guitar figure Taylor plays toward the fadeout could have gone on another five minutes.

Tele, my first reaction: that's what I always think when the song is over: pity, I want to hear more of that jamming-with-guitar solo. On the other hand: that feeling, that longing for 'more' is at the same time the power of the music. Taylor often plays a few notes or only a short solo and then I often have the feeling: so sorry it's already over. But that makes the music just great. For example, Mozart wrote many pieces in the strict sonata form, with only a short but intense 'development section' in it. Always too short, in my ears. But I must admit that it has the effect that you're always 'waiting' for that special part to come and also that the music never bores. It's like a pearl hidden in an oyster. The oyster is in itself already beautiful, but the pearl is the 'highlight', though being only a very small part of the whole.

Well,I've listened to it several times again .
I am not English but he sings " Cut in Cannes " (The "s" at the end of Cannes doesn't have to be pronounced , you must pronounce it " can " )

As far as I know, we call it "sky diver " here as parachuting .
In the south of France ,at sea sides, you can actually see plenty of lift bag sports .

not that this is vastly different, but it could be:

Aside for the clear 'N' you hear being prenounced, 'cut' is too short to make the line fit the bar. If it was 'cut' it would have been prenounced 'cu-ut", with a longer draw.

Btw, I haven't seen them in years, but isn't the actual frase written in ink on one of the LP sleeve jackets?

Mathijs, again I have to disagree with you and go with Tele's interpretation. The extra 'n' is too much as for the metric. 'Cuts' would be the ultimate metric solution. I checked the LP sleeve inside out and the line isn't on it, like I expected. Because the Glimmers certainly enjoyed the 'double meaning'. Let's stick to that. Artistically, metrically, philosophically, sexually and financially definitely responsible winking smiley

Mathjis, I don't see how "cut" is shorter than "cvnt" - both one syllable and take the same amount of time to say or sing.

Tele, There really is a metric difference. Cvnt is just a little longer, so metrically it's not so apt as cut(s). It's inherent in the pronouncement of the N. It slows down, it softens the sequence, it's just less sharp. Remember: all those s: kissing cuts in Cannes. The N would destroy the whole effect. It's maybe a detail, but though.

The N would destroy it unless you emphesize it. Listening to it again does not really provide an answer though. There's 100% for sure no "s" in both "cu(n)t" and "can(nes)".

Concerning the guitars, I always assumed it was Taylor and Richards playing rythm, but it's only Richards -including the slide. Taylor's only part is the solo bit at the ending.

What source, Mathijs, as for the guitars? According to Keno Richards plays bass and rhythms guitar and Taylor 'guitars':

[www.keno.org]

Anyway, to me the jamming/solo part is an essential part of the track: I always look forward to that piece of it when playing it.

Keno is not the best source for this kind of information.

if it is "cvnt"--can someone explain the joke to me? I'm not saying that with that word it's lavatory humor and can't be funny. I just don't get it, specifically.

I think taylor's role on Exile is pretty limited overall. But does he play bass on this track?

I don't think it's a joke so much,as a description of certain type of sexual act. At least that's my take on it.

Richards on bass. Crude but great. Taylor's role is not at all limited on Exile. Get out your album to see how many songs he played bass on, and the guitar parts are superb. Plus: his one-and-only writing credit!

The sax from Bobby Keys makes that song for me, it give it a extra swing on it, great track with great rythm guitar.
If I hear it good it`s kissing cut in can(ne)

I was trying to be kind to Keno--or, really, to people here who use Keno's site seriously. The knowledgeable posters here (use your own judgment to decide on these) are far more reliable.
