God Help the Girl Page #4
Was he really good looking?
He was quite good looking.
Was he Australian?
He was Australian,
but he moved over here
with his band.
I don't know.
Well, why were you
not in the band?
Well, I wasn't really
playing music then.
So you crossed multiple
continents for a boy.
This is weird.
You want to go back?
No, it's good weird.
I feel like I'm escaping.
I feel like Tom Sawyer.
We should definitely
fake our own deaths.
Oh, excuse me,
blondie, I know you.
You go to the posh school?
Would you go with my pal?
Where does he want me to go?
I don't understand
what you're saying.
Would you go with him,
as in go with him?
Uh... James, paddle.
Oh, I love her,
she's an English rose.
But I bet she's 30.
To deny the ned would be to deny
What was that?
I'm just saying,
this is a ned city now.
but it's run by neds.
What happened to the Victorians?
They built the city,
they used the workforce,
then they f***ed off
with the money.
I know more about the city
than I would say
60 percent
of the local residents.
- What?
- I do.
I study the history
of this place, I've...
I have.
Sorry, James, you are English.
No, I'm not.
How long after you
were born in Scotland
did you live in Scotland?
All right, well, I was born here
and then after like
six months we moved.
Oh, that doesn't count.
If you went to the pub now,
around the corner,
and you were like,
"Hi, everyone, I'm Scottish,"
someone would punch
you in the face.
Absolutely.
No they wouldn't.
Maybe I'd punch them back.
We're definitely a band now.
Why are we a band now?
This is something
only a band would do.
This is band sh*t.
Day trips, canoeing, kayaking.
What do you think, James?
I think we are
that's all.
So what makes a band then?
You don't make a band,
a band makes you.
It comes up
and sweeps you along.
Do you know what, I think
it's possible that all
have been made anyway.
I mean, what's the point?
Pop music's basically...
it's been on the slide
since 1969.
Do you have any idea
what he's talking about?
Not really, but he
sounds quite sad.
I'm going to be in Eve's band,
and you can either
be in it or go back
to posting up sad notices
in sad cafs.
Thank you.
There you are.
So is this a regular thing
with you, James,
just taking girls
on random day trips?
Up until this point
I would have said no.
I don't believe you.
I think it's the one sneaky
little move you have.
It's a good one.
Thank you for helping.
And, thank you as well.
What did I do?
I don't know.
Okay.
Steady.
Steady there, me hearties.
You can keep shouting,
because as captain
of this vessel
I'm going to have
to knock you out.
James, just chill out.
I drank too much wine.
We know you did.
You still feel like Tom Sawyer?
A bit.
Like Tom Sawyer when he's drunk.
Hi, this is Dr. Callie Gretty
here,
please leave a message
after the tone and...
Okay, so what do you want
this band to sound like?
Well, I don't know.
I mean, do you really
Doesn't it just happen?
Mostly it does, depends
on what kind of color
you want to add to the songs.
Do you want it
to just be us three?
Yes, I... I don't
think I could handle
So you don't want any drums?
Or a bass?
Well, wouldn't those things
just get in the way?
I mean, wouldn't
they choke the sounds?
Isn't that exactly what
happened with your band?
Yeah, but those
guys were idiots.
They... they didn't know
what they were doing.
Let me just ask you this.
The... the records
that you love,
would you say
they were folk music,
classical, jazz,
or pop?
Pop music.
Then we're gonna
need drums and a bass.
Ugh, but I don't want
I think we can
make a nice sound.
Ohh, we... we can
make a nice sound,
yeah, there's
But let me tell you this,
if you want to hear
your voice floating
in the middle of a beautiful
tapestry of frequencies,
you're gonna need a pop group.
Oh, okay, I just
thought about something.
We get people to play drums
or bass or whatever we need,
but we tell them right from
the start that we're the band.
They do what they're told
or they can leave.
But I mean, do you think people
would actually go for that?
It's not like we're
experts or anything.
That doesn't matter, no one
You're the song writer,
you're the boss.
So what do we do?
Advertise.
James can make one
of his super cool flyers
and I won't steal it
like I did last time.
Can you do it, big man?
Come on, let's go,
it's pissing rain.
He's a loving kind of guy
He's dedicated to his mate
His choice, he is in love
But temptation
As he waits,
his dream fresh
inside his head
His baby is sleeping below
He's a loving kind of guy
He's trying to forget
Every day he chips away
a little rock on his shoulder
Love is a sculptor
and he makes him
a shoulder again
I've got to go to work.
Will you come find me
and tell me what happens?
Okay, okay, you've got me.
Just sit, sit down.
What are you doing here?
We're not doing anything.
But you've left a trail there.
Okay, listen, shush.
Shh!
Calma, shut up.
Listen to the guy,
he's got something to say.
If you want to be in the band,
got to listen to the guy, okay?
The handsome guy, hm?
Okay, this is what
we're looking for.
There's this place
at the university
where this other band rehearses
and we can borrow their stuff.
Apparently there's
twins in the band,
and they're both hot.
Are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
Sh*t, so we're
really gonna do this?
Eve, your brother's here.
You don't have a brother.
Hi.
One second.
What's the deal
with the Swiss chap?
The man mountain,
the yodeling flingy.
The fuckish dilettante.
What's a dilettante?
I don't know, one who dabbles?
Has he dabbled?
Oh, he's tried.
You let him?
I was preparing to let myself.
Then he got kind of hypnotized.
My cleavage cast
a spell over him.
Really?
Is that usual?
No, absolutely not.
I go up and down quite a bit.
Sometimes I quite like them,
feel ready to show the world,
want to tape them up
and go running
through the barley.
How did you get in here?
We said we had your inhaler.
Can we get your room keys?
What are you gonna do in there?
We're gonna use your
guitar and your keyboard
and write a new song.
Okay, but don't
go through my stuff.
No way, brother.
We might even cook you dinner.
What's the song like?
A little bit Osmonds,
little bit Bowie.
Oh, oye, no.
Hey, I love him.
I'm going through
a real phase with him.
Yeah, of course you are,
every young girl your age
goes through a phase with him,
which is fine,
it's commendable.
What are you talking about?
