What A Way To Die

“WHAT A WAY TO DIE”….TEENAGE ODE TO PARTYING, DRINKING, LETTING OFF STEAM. PENNED AS A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT BETWEEN DAVE LEONE “HIDEOUT” MANAGER AND THE PLEASURE SEEKERS, THE SONG WAS RECORDED IN 1965, LATE FALL AND RELEASED IN 1966, VALENTINE’S DAY. THE SONG WAS VERY POPULAR, AND DID WELL REGIONALLY, GIVING THE PLEASURE SEEKERS NOTARIETY AS A ROCKIN DETROIT GROUP. THROUGH THE YEARS, THE SONG WAS IN “BLOOD ORGY OF THE LEATHER GIRLS”, A CULT-HORROR FILM OF 1988, AS WELL AS BEING COVERED BY GROUPS THROUGH THE YEARS, BOTH IN THE U.S. AND ABROAD. SUZI GROWLS IN HER LOWER REGISTER AND SPITS OUT THE LYRICS WITH GREAT PRE-PUNK ARROGANCE
