''Friction, Baby'' is Better Than Ezra's third album. It was released on August 13, 1996. After this album was released, they took the year off in 1997 after touring.〔http://www.billboard.com/album/better-than-ezra/friction-baby/188280#/album/better-than-ezra/friction-baby/188280/review〕 The album's title comes from a television interview with Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones. When asked how he and Mick Jagger stayed together for so long, Keith took a long drag from his cigarette and said "friction, baby." This may also be a reference to the fact that the band had replaced its original drummer, Cary Bonnecaze, between the recording of their previous album and this one. The album produced two hits on the Billboard modern rock charts: "King of New Orleans" and "Desperately Wanting." "Desperately Wanting" also narrowly missed the Billboard Top 40, peaking at #48. The third and fourth singles, "Long Lost" and "Normal Town," failed to chart. ==Track listing== # "King of New Orleans" – 4:07 # "Rewind" – 3:07 # "Long Lost" – 3:40 # "Normal Town" – 3:39 # "Scared, Are You?" – 4:06 # "Return of the Post Moderns" – 2:54 # "Hung the Moon" – 3:46 # "Desperately Wanting" – 4:37 # "Still Life With Cooley" – 3:58 # "WWOZ" – 4:20 # "Happy Endings" – 2:43 # "Speeding Up to Slow Down" – 4:09 # "At Ch. Degaulle, Etc." – 2:16 or 6:37 # * "Mejor de Ezra" (3:17) starts at 3:20 on later pressings. On early copies of the album, the hidden track "Mejor de Ezra" is contained in the negative space before Track 1. Later copies of the album tack this secret track onto the end of the album. All songs were composed by Kevin Griffin. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Friction, Baby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
