It’s so easy to say you’re sorry
But it won’t go away
(No, no, no, ah!)
I don’t wanna hear what you have to say
I don’t, I don’t
There’s a dream I have—
Where you go somewhere
So far away
I stay right here
For a holiday
Like I’m sixteen
Spring break at home
I’m all right
You’ve the really good friends that don’t know you
Don’t you get too proud
What am I singing about?
It’s just a melody!
IT DOESN’T MEAN A THING!
It’s here to make the song better!
I’m not even thinking about where it goes
Now I am!
Yes, it’s spring, it’s spring in
TEN DAYS!
The clocks, speed them up…
The clocks, speed them up!
There’s a dream I have—
Where you go somewhere
So far away
I stay right here
For a holiday
Like I’m sixteen
Spring break at home
I’m all right
I find it easy
To think of other ways this could have turned out
But coded messages and polite displays
It’s too much, it’s just too much to— stop now

Can't even begin with this one. Alex Cameron's faultless blend of humor and hook is genius, but more importantly manages to be so contemporary while referencing Orbison, Presley, Petty, you get it. Give Pleasure
Found this browsing bins at a shop in Carroll Gardens, BK. Had never heard of the group before, but bought this comp anyway. It's exactly what you want when someone puts J. Peel's name on the record! Give Pleasure
"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 2, 2023
