Bohemian Vendetta - Enough (1968)

Initially known as The Bohemians when it was formed in Long Island, New York in 1966, this band was composed of Nick Manzi, Chuck Monica, Randy Pollock, Brian Cooke, and Victor Muglia. They released one self-titled album on Mainstream Records in 1968 which sold very poorly. Nick Manzi, Brian Cooke, and Victor Muglia backed the artist Faine Jade on his 1968 album, Introspection, but it’s unclear whether that backing role occurred before or after their band’s own album. Some accounts claim that the only reason Bohemian Vendetta was able to record their own album was because they had proved themselves as musicians by backing Jade. Others claim that the band took the role of backing Jade after their own album sold poorly.

Appearing on their only album, this song accompanies other originals as well as a few cover songs, including “The House of the Rising Sun” and “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.” If you like this track, check out “Irresistible,” “Half the Time,” and “Images.”

Lyrics:

Oh, standin’ here beside myself
Wonderin’ what to do
I’m tired of starin’ at empty walls
Thinkin’ only of you

But what do you care now, baby
What happens to me?
You live in your own world, baby
As blind as can be

(Enough)
I’ve had it up to here
(Enough)
Can true love disappear?
(Enough)
I’m sick of all your lies
(Enough)
There’s love-light in your eyes

Lonely days and lonely nights
Draw me closer to frustration
I can’t accept my state of mind
You wreck my imagination

I trusted you so much, baby
What good did it do?
The secret is out now, baby
And the blame is on you

(Enough)
I’ve had it up to here
(Enough)
Can true love disappear?
(Enough)
I’m sick of all your lies
(Enough)
There’s love-light in your eyes

(Enough)
I’ve had it up to here
(Enough)
Can true love disappear?
(Enough)
I’m sick of all your lies
(Enough)
There’s love-light in your eyes

(Enough)
I’ve had it up to here
(Enough)
Can true love disappear?
(Enough)
I’m sick of all your lies
(Enough)
There’s love-light in your eyes

(Enough)
Oh, I’ve had it up to here, yeah yeah
(Enough)
Can true love disappear?
(Enough)
I’m sick of all your lies
(Enough)
There’s love-light in your eyes…
