| rdfs:comment | - Hailing from Detroit, Michigan USA, Majesty Crush was composed of lead singer David Stroughter, bassist Hobey Echlin, guitarist Michael Segal and drummer Odell Nails III. While incorporating the same lush, dreamy sound as other shoegazer acts of the time, it was the lyrics of Majesty Crush songs that set them apart from all other artists of the genre. Stroughter's often strange and obsessive lyrics cover such subjects as stalking Jodie Foster (No. 1 Fan), torture (Boyfriend), a female cashier at an adult book store (Sunni Pie), actresses (Uma), tennis stars (Seles) and Italian porn stars (Cicciolina).
