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

careless in our summer clothes





splashing around in the muck and the mire





Hang me up to dry - cold war kids

Careless in our summer clothes, splashing around in the muck and the mire
Careless in our summer clothes, splashing around in the muck and the mire

Fell asleep with stains caked deep in the knees; what a pain

Now hang me up to dry
You wrung me out too, too, too many times
Now hang me up to dry
Im pearly like the whites wh-whites of your eyes

All mixed up in the wash
Hot water bleeding our colors
All mixed up in the wash
Hot water bleeding our colors

Now hang me up to dry
You wrung me out too, too, too many times
Now hang me up to dry
Im pearly like the whites wh-whites of your eyes

Now hang me up to dry
You wrung me out too, too, too many times
Now hang me up to dry
Im pearly like the whites wh-whites of your eyes

Laura, cant you give me some time,
I got to give myself one more chance.
To be the man that I know I am.

This'll be the last time,
I ever do your hair.
One face among the many,
I never thought you cared.
Thisll be the last time,
I ever do your hair.
One face among the many,
I never thought you cared.

Ghostland Observatory - Sad Sad City


Sad sad city - ghostland observatory

Been getting tired of my motor running,
feeling over heated cause my life keeps coming,
my heart has been troubled by the speed of love.

Searching these streets for a soul committee,
Talking ideas on lust and pity,
The fables I've found have no place at home.

[Chorus]
Well I need you, to want me, to hold me, to tell me the truth
Say I need you, to want me, to hold me, to tell me the truth, yeah
Ain't no party in a sad sad city. x2

Well, roll the dice, pay the price
Dance with wolves in a pack of lies,
The blood we crave shall drive us all insane.

Yeah outer space, it's a lovely place,
A long lost love in a flower vase,
Laying on the floor shattered, battered and bruised.

[Chorus x2]
Well I need you, to want me, to hold me, to tell me the truth
Say I need you, to want me, to hold me, to tell me the truth, yeah
Ain't no party in a sad sad city. x3
