Bull In The Heather

What exactly does "betting on the bull in the heather mean?"

xpressway2yrskull · 05.21.2006, 09:29 AM

racing? That's what the video would suggest but surely there's more to it than that.

it's a horse name. kim betted on him in some horse races

val-holla-ing · 05.21.2006, 09:51 AM

i think it's the same horse that's found in the liner notes for experimental jetset.

i dont think the the "bull in the heather" portion of the song has anything to do with the rest of it

I always thought it ment some kind of long shot, far fetched thing.

Always thought it related to the cover of Sister, the picture of these ruminants in the tall grass, thus meaning betting on the Sonic Youth (they're 4, Lee, Kim, Thurston, with Steve in the background). Not kidding.

ohhh, i always though those were just weird cows.

now that i look at it. they look like punkers! with their hair all in their faces

val-holla-ing · 05.21.2006, 11:29 AM

those cows are more metal than punk. they've even got the horns to prove it.

she's blacked out on mine also. this is the original LP cover. i think it was some coppyright issue bullshit

I don't think they did an very good job of UPC-ing the Disney thing. Like we can't tell? That CD cover/back has always intrigued me, though. Good stuff.

It's a reference to a big ol' peen.
