give up
Nachdem ich im letzten Posting ja doch sehr computerbezogen wurde, ist es höchste Zeit, dies mit neuen Artikeln ins Archiv wandern zu lassen. Nun denn...
Gestern habe ich mir das geniale Album "Give Up" von "The Postal Service" zugelegt. Ist zwar mittlerweile drei Jahre alt, aber hatte ich irgendwie verpasst. Klingt ein bisschen wie der New Wave der 80er. Kann ich den ganzen Tag hören...
Clark Gable - The Postal Service
- I was waiting for a cross-town train in the London underground when it struck me
- That I've been waiting since birth to find a love that would look and sound like a movie
- So I changed my plans and rented a camera and a van and then I called you
- "I need you to pretend that we are in love again" and you agreed to
- I want so badly to believe that "there is truth, that love is real"
- And I want life in every word to the extent that it's absurd
- I greased the lens and framed the shot using a friend as my stand-in
- The script it called for rain but it was clear that day so we faked it
- The marker snapped and I yelled "quiet on the set" and then called "action!"
- And I kissed you in a style that Clark Gable would have admired (I thought it classic)
- I want so badly to believe that "there is truth, that love is real"
- And I want life in every word to the extent that it's absurd
- I know you're wise beyond your years, but do you ever get the fear
- That your perfect verse is just a lie you tell yourself to help you get by?
