now I'm hung up on a dream

Continuing with the free downloads over here, i'm really feeling the tough alliance today. The first track i had of theirs was "Neo Violence" which is free somewhere on the urban outfitters music blog. It's super catchy. This cover of "hung up on a dream" by the zombies is cute and light and perfect for such a pretty summer day! Also it's available for free on Chickens Don't Clap!



Hung up on a dream - The Tough Alliance (cover)

Well I remember yesterday
Just drifting slowly through a crowded street
With neon darkness shimmering through the haze
A sea of faces rippling in the heat
And from that nameless changing crowd
A sweet vibration seemed to fill the air
I stood astounded staring hard
At men with flowers resting in their hair

A sweet confusion filled my mind
Until I woke up only finding everything was just a dream
A dream unusual of its kind
That gave me peace and blew my mind
And now I'm hung up on a dream

They spoke with soft persuading words
About a living creed of gentle love
And turned me on to sounds unheard
And showed me strange and clouded sights above
Which gentle touched my aching mind
And soothed the wanderings of my troubled brain
Sometimes I think I'll never find
Such purity and peace of mind again
