I feel guilty saying that my favourite Living Colour song is “Cult of personality” , but It blows me away everytime they play it. Aside from the first time I heard it on the radio, I was lucky enough to hear them play it at their last show at CBGB’s. As we were a slightly older crowd than when we saw them in the 80’s, our physical response was a bit more subdued. Instead of breaking into a frenzied mosh pit, we all leaned into the beat and bobbed our heads. I could feel the floor of the club breathing it’s last few breaths in time with the beat. I felt like that floor could give way any moment. I felt the same fear for my life and thrill of survival that I did in those slam dance pits in my teens. What a rush.

My favorite Living Colour song is Go Away, because it highlights the combination of their funk, soul, and heavy metal all in one number. To me, that has been their consistent and unique sound since the very beginning.

My favorite Living Color song is “What’s your favorite color?” (Baby?).

my favorite living colour track is Open Letter to a Landlord, especially live with that great vocal intro by glover. i feel it has the total package of what the living colour sound is.

I love ” Behind the Sun”, the guitar work is so trippy and psychedelic. I got into Living Colour recently, after seeing Doug Wimbish playing with Tarja in NYC. I look forward to my first Living Colour show :)

“Time’s Up!” The title track to the second album. I remember seeing this tour in Providence and when the sound effects that start the album started and they took the stage, the hair on my neck stood up! That show, and every one since, has been ridiculous!!!!! I’m so glad they are touring again!!

My fave is Money Talks. I can listen to Vernon’s solo on that a zillion times, and still never understand how he doesn’t lose sight of the original song, or how Muzz knew when to come back in. The song kills kills kills, just like the band. Do not miss them live.
