Una delle band a cui sono più legato.
Pretty in pink (soprattutto nella versione rifatta del 1987) l'ho ascoltata migliaia di volte. testo fantastico, poi lo posto.
E poi il video di The ghost in you
, con Bulter carismatico come non mai quando nel ritornello si alza dalla sedia!Heaven sotto la pioggia, e poi tutte le songs più wave dei primi dischi, a partire da Sister Europe appunto, love my way, Dumb Waiters, Imitation of Christ....
Grande gabone, stiamo rispolverando ben bene eh?
PRETTY IN PINK
Caroline laughs and
It's raining all day
She loves to be one of the girls
She lives in the place
In the side of our lives
Where nothing is
Ever put straight
She turns herself round
And she smiles and she says
'This is it'
'That's the end of the joke'
And loses herself
In her dreaming and sleep
And her lovers walk
Through in their coats
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
All of her lovers
All talk of her notes
And the flowers
That they never sent
And wasn't she easy
And isn't she
Pretty in pink
The one who insists
He was first in the line
Is the last to
Remember her name
He's walking around
In this dress
That she wore
She is gone
But the joke's the same
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
Caroline talks to you
Softly sometimes
She says
'I love you' and
'Too much'
She doesn't have anything
You want to steal
Well
Nothing you can touch
She waves
She buttons your shirt
The traffic
Is waiting outside
She hands you this coat
She gives you her clothes
These cars collide
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
Questa canzone è troppo sexy! E la parte in grassetto geniale!
, ma la loro “Secrets” è ancora oggi uno dei miei pezzi preferiti in assoluto.
