So What About It

The Fall · Other Songs - The Fall

Fall advice!

Fall advice!

Fall advice!

Fall advice!



The year number 1

Has gone and turned

Into year of bomb

Tv wars 24 hours

But it happens

Fall advice!



Shaking my bones down the m14

Passenger seat gripped tight

And seriously

I cannot sleep

But Im happy

I cannot eat

So what about it?



It happens

It happens

It happens

Fall advice!



The works down the drain

And interest never wanes

So what about it?



Fall advice!

Yak! yak! yak!

Some are born to life

Some are born depressed

About it

Fall advice!

To parties underground

Youre driving around in lake districts

Youre stepping around

It doesnt't't matter to me

Cause it happens

Its magic

So what about it?

So What About It

The Fall's 'So What About It' captures the band's signature post-punk intensity and Marc E. Smith's distinctive lyrical delivery. Emerging from a prolific era of experimentation, the track exemplifies the group's ability to blend abrasive rhythms with cryptic, conversational phrasing. While the song stands as a standalone recording, it reflects the broader energy found in their extensive catalogue of singles and album cuts. The Fall consistently challenged conventional rock structures, often prioritizing attitude and repetition over traditional songwriting. This recording serves as a testament to their enduring influence on alternative music, showcasing the raw, unpolished sound that defined much of their output. Fans of the band's more direct, driving numbers will find this track representative of their core aesthetic, balancing melodic hooks with the group's characteristic angularity.
