Mates of State
This is easily my favorite song of theirs - they sound like The Sounds and Enon got together. It's really really good....
you can get the video from their website - the lead singer gets down to her underroos so that's kinda cute -
I can't tell what kind of life I've led today
All that's known is what's debatable again
Oh, I can't see where you are
Where is the problem?
Squared-off, all bother
We're not to blame
And I can't see the darker wood
Squared-off, all bother
Where is the problem?
We're not to blame
I can't tell what kind of life I've led today
All that's known is what's debatable again
And I imagine I will see you there
You will have long flowers in your hair
I imagine I will see you there
This is the blood that we're made of
So tell it like a chronicle
Who's dancing all around?
Let's give it to me, give it to me now
We're dancing all around
Let's give it to me, give it to me now
And I imagine I will see you there
You will have long flowers in your hair
The telegram said: are you gonna call our way home?
I imagine I will see you there
Can't you hear the laughter in the air?
The telegram said: are you gonna call our way home?
And I imagine I will see you there
I know it's stout but it's shallow
I'm not aware
The telegram said: who rejuvenated your eyes, boy?
This is the blood that we're made of
Go tell it like a chronicle
Who's dancing all around?
Let's give it to me, give it to me now
We're dancing all around
Let's give it to me, give it to me now
This is the blood that we're made of
Go tell it like a chronicle
We're dancing all around
Let's give it to me, give it to me now
It's a really really good song - it'll make you smile and do that 80's hair toss kind of dance. 80's are coming back fierce - just in time - you see my theory is that there was just too much cocain and people didn't really know how to use the instruments back then and punk rock was still all about guitars. But now, I'm seeing more underground music using 4 and 5 piece sets with the keyboard and synth being the main attraction and now they know how to use these instruments to do cooler shit and make it sounds more edgy but at the same time really pop...ahh...it's gonna be a good show tonight...
UPDATE - they aren't the closing act - oh man that means I only get 6 songs. Suck ass!
