Experimenting with Stop Motion

The Bowery Boys

The Bowery boys were a gang based north of the Five Points district of New York City in the mid 19th century. Their views were based on rebelling against what was expected of them as younger men (teenagers) and started their own views, style and interests as a group such as being anti-Catholic and anti-Irish. Their style dressed them in black stovepipe hats, red shirts, black flared trousers, high-heeled calfskin boots and black vests, with oil slicked hair which gave them a second name as 'Soaplocks'.



<-- This is a fight between The Bowery Boys and the Dead Rabbits in the Sixth Ward, New York City. The group was made from mostly single males who frequented the saloons and brothels of the Bowery.

"Love Diamonds, a stereotypical love song, meaning those little things that is unique in every relationship that makes it special and individual from others. Every relationship has them."

Don’t you say, I love you again

We’re like a box love diamonds

You play the game, on my heart

I feel the pain, I’m not insane

You spinning wires round my heart

You disappear, in front of me

And never come back for me again

You took my love last night

Was it wrong or right

All I want is for your love diamonds X 2

I miss your laugh and your eyes

When they looked deep down into mine

It will rain, when we kiss

And I’ll make my only wish

I want to play, on the strings

Of your mind and of your heart

Its hurts inside, I’m petrified

Stars are floating around my eyes

You took my love last night

Was it wrong or right

All I want is for your love diamonds X 2

You took my love last night

Was it wrong or right

All I want is for your love diamonds X 2

These lyrics are talking about a love song, about someone who is confused by what they want in the relationship and is toying with the idea of whether it should carry on.
