Military Guns and Daisy – “Tall people don’t live long”
In 2022, Militarie Gun and Dazy collaborated on “Pressure Cooker,” one of the best songs of the year. They then signed up for Mannequin Pussy’s Missy Davis for a remix of the song. “James is taller than me, so I can guess how I came up with the title of this song,” commented militia gunman Ian Shelton. “What started as a joke between us has turned into a real conversation about people who have reached a certain height in life beginning to look down on others. “Tall people” became the words on our cheeks for those who have lost so many perspectives that someone thinks it’s okay to feel that not that much. This song is about rejecting that attitude.
James Goodson of Dazy added: “Ian and I wrote this song right after the ‘Press Cooker’ came out, so we realized how bold it actually can be with songwriting. We got together really quickly in the afternoon when we exchanged ideas. A few years later, we were finally able to take a song above the finish line with Justin Raisen.
