Rocketship (band)
Rocketship is an indie pop band formed in Sacramento, California in 1993. Led by singer-songwriter and guitarist Dustin Reske with bassist Verna Brock, keyboardist Heidi Barney and drummer Jim Rivas, the group released the single "Hey, Hey, Girl" in 1994 and the album A Certain Smile, a Certain Sadness in 1996. After the album's release, the original line-up dissolved and Reske continued Rocketship essentially as a solo project, releasing the singles "Honey, I Need You" and "Get on the Floor (And Move It)" in 1997 and the albums Garden of Delights in 1999 and Here Comes... Rocketship in 2006.
Rocketship's sound can be described as '60s-style pop, characterized by ringing guitars and droning organs; although, as a solo project, Reske has taken the sound in an ambient direction.
In May of 2014, Rocketship performed for the first time in several years, during both SF Popfest and NYC Popfest festivals.

Generation Swine
Generation Swine is the seventh studio album by the heavy metal band Mötley Crüe, released on June 24, 1997. The album marks the return of lead singer Vince Neil following his last appearance on 1989's Dr. Feelgood and the last album to include drummer Tommy Lee until his return for their 2008 album Saints of Los Angeles.
Background
Following the commercial failure of the band's self-titled album, Mötley Crüe was under pressure by executives at Elektra Records to return Mötley Crüe to the level of commercial success that the band enjoyed in the 1980s.
The band, then officially consisting of vocalist/guitarist John Corabi, bassist Nikki Sixx, drummer Tommy Lee and guitarist Mick Mars, were so frustrated with the failure of the previous album and tour sales that they fired numerous people around the group, including their accountant, manager Doug Thaler, and their producer Bob Rock. The band then hired Allen Kovac as their new manager and started looking for another producer to work with for their next record which was originally titled Personality #9.

Rocketship
by: Werd (s.o.s)[Werd:]
I am
So fly like a Rocketship
Out this world when I'm rocking this
So fly like a Rocketship
Out this world when I'm rocking this
[Kathy McCarty:]
I'm going on a trip far away
[Werd:]
Yo bring that back bring that back
Going on a trip here mate and so are you
With the Scottish rapper
Alude Reekie Edinburgh ken who it is mate it's Werd S.O.S.
Got my bags packed it's a fact I go
But I come right back like a rap yoyo
Don't rap yo yo no Koko no
Don't sound like a clown that sounds so so
I'm Han Solo and I'm solo
I get so high and your still so low
And rock a show with an ounce of snow
Put it in my nose I know you know
It's a big no no to flow no mojo
I stay flash like an instant photo
So bright like lights on popo
Do what I like till they light my logo
From Edinburgh oh no to London Soha
So I can say so hoe blow for more doe
I fuck Uranus and do Saturn's ring
I'm out this world when I do my thing
I am
So fly like a Rocketship
Out of this world when I'm rocking this
Rock this shit
Ship shit that's how fly
I should go stay in the Isle of Skye
How I'll I'm I shit skill don't lie
And check my standards I mountain high
Plus I produce these kids like mothers
Take it right to these cunts no rubbers
And I write rhymes like old Mother Hubbard
There's no fucking other need doe mother fucker
Done shows in the summer now we back in the winter
Getting under skin like splinters but I'm no mutant ninja
I am no little winger I will win I'm a winner
Yeah I'm hot your a minger aw man I deliver
Like takeaway dinners take away you beginners
Only see competition when I'm looking in the mirror
[Kathy McCarty:]
There is a boy there
His name is 'X'
He says you don't know me
I don't know you either
[Werd:]
Who fuck is you you wee bend
Err in fact I don't want to ken
I got no buddies calling me friend
I'm a hang up but they call me again
And it's quarter to ten and I'm rocking the pen
So it's often a tend to blocking my end
Because Iv no got time to be talking to them
When I don't drop shit I be dropping a gem
At fithteen and shit seems by sixteen
My sixteens where just mean a sick teen
With shit dreams to get green a has been
That's has been seen before he seen scenes
Before I seen scenes cunt
Let's count just count till you see me
The days so fly call me run away I'm take off
Sing it lassie
[Kathy McCarty:]
The stars are blurring
We are going fast
We are going on a trip far away
We are leaving today
Our planet is our Rocketship
