Arguably Australia's greatest pop group
ever, The Go-Betweens seemed to save the
best for last when they split in 1989.
(They reunited in 1999, and have issued
two more studio recordings since that
time). 16 Lovers Lane is simply
breathtaking; it is a deeply moving,
aurally sensual collection of songs about
relationships and the broken side of love
that never lapses into cheap
sentimentality or cynicism. Songwriters
Robert Forster and Grant McLennan had
always been visionary when it came to
charting personal and relational
melancholy and heartbreak, but here, their
resolve focused on charting the depths of
the romantic's soul when it has been
disillusioned or crestfallen, is simply
and convincingly taut. While it's true
that the group was going through its own
version of a soap opera-styled romantic
saga, that emotional quagmire seemingly
fueled its energies and focus, resulting
in an album so texturally rich, lyrically
sharp, and musically honest, its effect is
nothing less than searing on an any
listener who doesn't have sawdust instead
of blood in his or her veins.Opening with
McLennan's "Love Goes On," the stage is
set for a kind of refined yet primal
emotional transference that pop music is
rarely capable of revealing. As he sings:
"There are times when I want you/I want
you so much I could bust/I know a thing
about lovers/Lovers lie down in trust/The
people next door they got problems/They
got things they can't name/I know about
things about lovers/ Lovers don't feel any
shame/Late not night when the light's down
low/The candle burns to the end/I know a
thing about darkness/Darkness ain't my
friend/Love goes on anyway," the doorway
to the heart and its secrets opens. In the
grain of his voice lie the flowers in the
dustbin whose names are desperation and
affirmation. With its hyperactive acoustic
guitars, Amanda Brown's cooing string
arrangements, and the deftly layered,
subtly played brass instruments, the tune
becomes a gauzy anthem; it celebrates the
ravaged heart as a beacon of strained hope
in the entryway to a hall of bewilderment.
He follows it with "Quiet Heart," a song
whose opening was admittedly influenced in
structure by U2's "With Or Without You,"
but blows it away lyrically and with its
subtly shifting melody and harmony between
the guitars. Brown's multi-layered strings
actually stride the backbeat's pulse. His
protagonist speaks to an absent lover. His
ache offers a view of his own weakness,
desperation, and an all-consuming
tenderness: "I tried to tell you/But I can
only say when we're apart/How I miss your
quiet, quiet heart." Forster seems to
underline McLennan' s raw emotionalism
with his painterly, nearly baroque, "Love
Is A Sign," where images from visual art,
remembered scenarios, and real life
brokenness intermingle effortlessly with
the elegance of mandolins, a string
orchestra, and a shimmering bass line.
With "Streets Of Your Town," the
Go-Betweens scored a minor hit in the
U.K., and even got played on American
radio for a moment, but despite the fact
that it has the most memorable hook on a
record filled with them, it merely
underscores how constant the quality is on
the record. Evidenced further by "The
Devil's Eye," and the shattering closer
"Dive For Your Memory," 16 Lovers Lane is
melancholy and somber in theme, but
gloriously and romantically presented.
Despite the fact that band has but a cult
following, even in the 21st century, the
Go-Betweens have nonetheless given us a
far more literate, magnificently written,
performed, and produced slab of pop
classicism, than Fleetwood Mac's
wonderfully coked out, love as
co-dependency fest, Rumours.
SCREW THE INDUSTRY!!!! SUPPORT THE *ARTISTS*!!!!
