@Song of the Day@

I figured that after the little music mini-discussion, why not have a showcase for those songs I totally dig? Here's the first one...

Arcadia, "Election Day" ((c) 1985, LeBon/Rhodes/Taylor, released by EMI Records Ltd.) (mp3 downloadable at: http://website.lineone.net/~soredtherose/ElectionDay.mp3 )

Wild kind of look to the day, opening eyes impale neon flickers She moon, she turning away, The city's her slave, he's cheating his mistress She's moody and grey, she's mean and she's restless (so restless, so restless indeed)

All over you as they say, Rumours or rivals yell at the strike force - Hi guys, by the way, are you aware you're being illegal (ooh) It's making your saviour behaviour look evil 'scuse my timing but say, How d'you fit in with this flim, flam and judy

Maximum big suprise your smile is something new I pull my shirt off and pray, We're sacred and bound to suffer the heatwave Pull my shirt off and pray, We're coming up on re-election day

Stretching my love down the way To your invitation stretching my body Use your intuitive play Cause maybe we have more play time than money

Maximum big suprise she knows something new I pull my shirt off and pray, I'm saving myself to suffer the heatwave Pull my shirt off and pray, We're coming up on re-election day

By roads and backways a lover's chance, down a wind Curtain murmurs and sounds be calm hands on skin Carry further.. entangled strands.. all sing! Time, saving some time to slip away we could dance ..

Oh! Shouldn't be asking.. Wild and scheming Could be my election day

Maximum big suprise you know something new I pull my shirt off and pray, We're sacred and bound to suffer this heatwave Pull my shirt off and pray We're coming up on re-election day

Second verse, same as the first...

And the lyrics are here:

Sin of the City (LeBon/Rhodes/Taylor/Cuccurullo) ((c) 1993, EMI Records Ltd.)

Coat check girl up in Happyland Has a violent row with a Cuban man Julio leaves in a drunken rage - Comes back with the gasoline The club has no fire exit The club only had one door Only five people came out alive The sin is that 89 died

89 dead! 89 dead! 89 dead! 89 dead!

The sin is that a year and a half before The fire chief's out and he's raising cain Brands Happyland hazzard close down but no. No-one ever paid him no mind..

No-one ever paid him no mind.. No-one ever paid him no mind.. No-one ever paid him no mind.. No-one ever paid him no mind..

City living, heavy trouble City living rough We are given angry heart But angers not enough

(chorus)

Daily News reviews of the landlords life Found six thousand code violations light. The city has more a hundred thousand wars All for one of Forbes' four hundred whores.

Just one fire cracker on a big bondfire Of self serving penny pinching wiseguy style.

Never allowing for the human condition. (hayyyeah) Never allowing for the human condition. (hayyyeah) Never allowing for the numen condition. The sin is that these guys survive.

(chorus) (chorus)

The sin of the city yehh (chorus) Stop killing your people now. Stop wasting your people now. (chorus) Your jacking your people off

Sin of the City, yehh (chorus) Stop killing you're people how. You're wasting you're people yeahh. (chorus)

Am not posting up a song of the day for tonight because of lack of time, but I will be searching for a song of the day for tomorrow. Hopefully I can get a Naked Eyes one...I've been listening to my Naked Eyes greatest hits tape and "Voices in My Head" and "Low Life" especially have been attractive. If not, I'll probably post an Andy Taylor song.
