Il 2012 fu la "Summer Of Love" della band: eravamo finiti in un giro sociale piuttosto vivace, fatto di movida e inciuci estivi. Io, Gabriel e l'allora tastierista
(Albert Cale) eravamo così infognati con la Psichedelia e il Sunshine Pop che decidemmo di render tributo in un EP di cinque brani; uno cantato da me, uno da Albert, due da Gabriel.
Di proposito, pescammo tra brani e band di nicchia: Tomorrow, Love, Zombies, Idle Race. In quanto disco di cover, la sua promozione fu ridimensionata e tutto fu trainato da semplice, incondizionato
amore per gli anni sessanta. Esecuzione con alti e bassi...Ma l'importante fu il sentimento, e quello fu in assoluto l'anno più bell della band nell'attività live e nei rapporti interpersonali, anche
con il nostro seguito di allora.
Care Of Cell 44
Good morning to you I hope you're feeling better, baby
Thinking of me while you are far away
Counting the days until they set you free again
Writing this letter, hoping you're okay
Saved you the room you used to stay in every Sunday
The one that is warmed by sunshine every day
And we'll get to know each other for a second time
And then you can tell me 'bout your prison stay
Feels so good you're coming home soon
It's gonna to be good to have you back again with me
Watching the laughter play around your eyes
Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
Kiss and make up and it will be so nice
Feels so good you're coming home soon
Walking the way we used to walk
And it could be so nice
We're talking the way we used to talk
And it could be so nice
It's gonna be good to have you back again with me
Watching the laughter play around your eyes
Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
Kiss and make up and it will be so nice
Feels so good you're coming home soon
Feels so good you're coming home soon
The Birthday
She had a birthday yesterday she cried
Took off her glasses let her hair down cried
She told them all at work about the day
How it is no-one came?
Wo-oh woh, oh woh-oh
She sent the invitations to her friends
They were too busy doing other things
She told them all at work about the day
How it is no-one came?
Wo-oh woh, oh woh-oh
She took the decorations from the wall
Was it the ladder loose that made her fall?
She told them all at work about the day
How it is no-one came?
Wo-oh woh, oh woh-oh
She had a birthday yesterday she cried
Orange Skies

Carnivals and cotton candy and you

For you it comes so naturally
Right here in my arms

Real Life Permanent Dream
i don't think i'll be coming past
this way again today
lots of things have happened here
i can't really say
she was nice to me but somehow
i don't think it's right
that girl belongs to someone else
i finally saw the light
i wouldn't stay, she begged me then,
she cried and made a scene
i calmed her down and told her
our relationship's a dream
description in a book told me
this thing would never last
it's just a phase that people go through
it'll easy pass
now i just go for walks in sunshine
breathing cool fresh air
see her face, touch her skin
i would not dare
my state of mind is purer now
that i am on my own
it's just a phase that people go through,
out of it i've grown
i feel so much better now
my conscious is so clean
who wants to get hung up on
a real life permanent dream
now i just go for walks in
sunshine breathing cool fresh air
see her face, touch her skin
i would not dare
who wants to get hung up on
a real life permanent dream
who wants to get hung up on
a real life permanent dream
