    “I was a dreamer,

    Love this song and the guitar work during the above refrain reminds me of the incredible guitar work by the Cocteau Twins. That amazing ethereal “twang”. Awesome. This is what GOOD music sounds like.

    Lyrics
    Tinseltown swimming in blood
    Tinsel ribbons dancing in the rain
    Flowers on the skyline, hey how was the wine?
    What comes round's going round again
    Towers coming up for air
    I couldn't see, I was blind
    Off in the corner, doing poet's work
    That's alright for now
    It was just a dream of your blue eyes
    I couldn't see, I was blind
    Off in the corner, doing poet's work
    That's alright for now
    It was just a dream of your blue eyes
    Tinseltown dripping in blood
    Tinsel women dancing in the wind
    Dead flowers on the skyline
    Hey how was the wine, baby?
    What comes round is going round again
    Now let me tell you about the dream
    I had no feeling, I had no past
    I was the arctic, I was the vast
    Spaces without reprieve
    I was a dreamer, watch me leave
    I was a dreamer, watch me leave
    I was a dreamer, watch me leave
    I was a dreamer, watch me leave
    I was a dreamer, watch me leave
    I was a dreamer, watch me leave

      It didn´t: Sigue SIgue Sputnik (of all bands!) did it in the late 1980´s with their video of Dancerama! They had a slightly bigger budget, but not the song to back it up:

      @stellaVista 2 месяца назад

      Well, it was "remade" as a music promo video by non other band than Sigue Sigue Sputnik in 1988 (it comes with the warning: Danger! Art Video follows")
      Dancerama by Sigue Sigue Sputnik: ruclips.net/video/o86b_V-OXt4/видео.html
      To those asking about the source: The film is La Jetée by Chris Marker. A science-fiction short film form 1962.
      The film is remarkable for many reasons: It´s made entirely of b/w still photography (except for one scene) and it was remade by Terry Gilliam as Twelve Monkeys.

    I love this song and, perhaps unique in Destoyer songs, there is an odd time signature thing happening during the "off in the corner doing poet's work.." how is that counted? I'm not much of a musician, so I am a little mystified by which measures are which.

    • @life_bandit9867
      @life_bandit9867 2 года назад +1

      My best guess is that it's switching between 4/4 and 7/8. So going from 1:06 to 1:22, we've got
      3 measures of 4/4
      1 measure of 7/8
      1 measure of 4/4
      1 measure of 7/8
      2 measures of 4/4
