  • Song aus dem album Oceans Apart
    What would you do if you turned around
    And saw me beside you
    Not in a dream but in a song?
    Would you float like a phantom
    Or would you sing along?
    Don't know where I'm going
    Don't know where it's flowing
    But I know it's finding you
    What would you do
    If you saw me driving by in a car
    The quickest you've ever seen me spin?
    Would you smile and wave
    Or would you bow and get in?
    Don't know where I'm going
    Don't know where it's flowing
    But I know it's finding you
    But then the lightning finds us
    Burns away our kindness
    We can't find a place to hide
    Come the rainy season
    Surrender to our treasons
    Can we even find our tears?
    Don't know where I'm going
    Don't know where it's flowing
    But I know it's finding you

    NewHopeNashFan, I could not agree more. I discovered the Go-Betweens by chance in in 1988 and became an instant fan of them and Grant's solo work. It's criminal that they to this day are virtually unknown here in America. Grant's music has a very profound and deep meaning in my life and that he passed away so young is something that I have a really hard time accepting. The GB's music is what took me to Oz for 3 months. A country I fell in love with. Dunno if I can go back to Brisbane now. :-(

    I've been a Go-Betweens fan since the late 80's (around ten yo), then loved Grant's solo work as I grew older... I acknowledged their reformation at the time, but now, listening to this, and in hindsight of Grant's untimely passing, I wish I'd paid more attention while I had the chance.
    I love the interplay between Robert and Grant- you can almost see one of them lurking in the kitchen while the other raised laughs in the lounge room. This is such a beautiful song.

    I came to the Go Betweens through rock, prog and blues; they're one of the few 'pop' bands that are THAT good :) Robert Forster and Grant McLennan (RIP) had sublime collaborative chemistry, and produced wonderful solo albums too! A great band, and always will be!
    Greetings from the UK!

    • @tullfan7872
      @tullfan7872 5 лет назад

      Agree - they're very creative and original. What amazes me is that as a singer Forster isn't that good and as a guitarist McLennan wasn't exceptional. But the consistency of the collaboration and harmonising is unbelievably good ... just perfect. There aren't too many moments in music when that happens. REM's guitars, Michelle Branch's voice harmonising with her strumming guitar. Plus, Steven Wilson is another artist that came up through rock and prog that currently is doing some great pop.

  • @tullfan7872
    @tullfan7872 6 лет назад +1

    I missed this band in my youth - am just starting to catch up now. That's a very Churchy jangly guitar there as well as Kilby-style offhand vocals. They also remind me of The Cure and Paul Kelly to give a very upbeat fusion of art pop and urban folk. Nice song.

    Is more about being in another place
    Like it’s always been

    To tell you about the bachelor kisses.
