New York girls play hard to get
but they've been around with everyone
& I don't know if I shouldn't quit
before I do something that can't be undone
Oh, those New York girls,
Oh, those beautiful girls,
love those New York girls,
world's most beautiful girls,
New York girls are hard to please
& I don't know if I can satisfy
them, because all them seem to do is tease
& uh, try to get with other guys
Oh, those New York girls,
Oh, those beautiful girls,
love those New York girls,
world's most beautiful girls,
though you haunt me,
you can't see me,
though you're near me,
you can't be me,
so I tell you,
you must leave me,
though I want you,
& you need me,
Oh, those New York girls,
Oh, those beautiful girls,
love those New York girls,
world's most beautiful girls,
[synthesizer solo]
New York girls are such a drag
because they give it up to worthless fools
& uh, leave me standing in the rain
because I don't got none of that New York cool
Oh, those New York girls,
Oh, those beautiful girls,
love those New York girls,
world's most beautiful girls,
though you haunt me,
you can't see me,
though you're near me,
you can't be me,
so I tell you,
you must leave me,
though I want you,
& you need me,
Oh, those New York girls,
Oh, those beautiful girls,
love those New York girls,
world's most beautiful girls
As day slowly dies & the sun sinks somberly into the sea, a whispered conversation tells a strange tale of a nameless prince
who loved a foreign princess, but she left him, & so he lost his face & turned to stone. And some rumors hint that the prince never wholly succumbed to this petrification, that deep within the sad monument, there is a human heart still, bleeding endlessly through long eons....more
This is a pretty great record. I don't know, just listen to it if you're looking to listen to something new. "Everybody Loves You When You're Dead" is pretty killer. This band really digs The Sweet. John Hawkwood's Blackfoot Sun
This is a crazy album. All the melodies are in fact harmonies, which is trippy. Many of the songs are only a few chords, but are arpeggiated to sound like many. It's avant-garde minimalistic jazz. John Hawkwood's Blackfoot Sun
Bridgette Imperial is a brilliant singer-songwriter/composer with a remarkable gift for shoe-gaze, in only the best sense. Misgivings is a beautiful, meditative & heartbreakingly melancholy album. John Hawkwood's Blackfoot Sun
Bouncy, urgent, raucous indie rock, anthemic yet unpredictable; this Oxford, U.K. trio sounds defiantly full of life. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 28, 2020
