"Grass" is sometimes mistaken to be about cannabis, but was actually written about Coate Water, a parkland in Swindon. Moulding composed it on an open E-tuned guitar and found its harmonic changes by playing the chord shapes of Thunderclap Newman's "Something in the Air" (1969). The mixing of violin and guitar was an idea lifted from John Lennon's "How Do You Sleep?" (1971). Todd Rundgren added a tipple to the blend. Moulding originally sang the song with a deeper voice. He said Rundgren voiced concern that the effect was too close to "a molester", and so Moulding "did the Bowie thing and added an octave above it". The track bookends "Summer's Cauldron" with a reprise of its "insect chorus" |

The promo for the Australian Grand Prix in the early 90s got me into this song. It was so frustrating that I didn't know it was Atomic Playboys from Steve Stevens til after yt!

I only a few years ago realize that this 2 80's songs are about Masturbation:
The Vapors - Turning Japanese https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWWwM2wwMww Cyndi Lauper - She Bop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFq4E9XTueY And to this day, I still think this song is about female chastity and sexual abstinence and the sealed lips are the labias of their vaginas which should be considering all the Go-Go's girls look like Uber Dykes! The Go-Go's - Our Lips Are Sealed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3kQlzOi27M |
