Psychedelic Furs

A little something about Psychedelic Furs
The Psychedelic Furs formed in London in the late '70s and broke up in the early '90s producing seven studio albums and numerous collections in the duration. Typically their music was trippy, articulate grooves punctuated with seering guitars and whirling effects or synthesizers. In front of this ethereal mix were the detached poetic musings of a scratchy-throated baritone lead singer. Keep in mind, stateside in the early '80s, a band like the Furs could be heard only on radio stations experimenting with 'new wave' programming. The Furs certainly stood out from the rest of the radio-friendly pop acts such as Toni Basil, Soft Cell, Nena and Thompson Twins. Their sound was unique and engaging then and still is today.

Pretty in Pink

Caroline laughs andIt's raining all dayShe loves to be one of the girlsShe lives in the placeIn the side of our lovesWhere nothing isEver put straightShe turns herself roundAnd she smiles and she says'This is it''That's the end of the joke'And loses herselfIn her dreaming and sleepAnd her lovers walkThrough in their coatsPretty in pinkIsn't shePretty in pinkIsn't sheAll of her loversAll talk of her notesAnd the flowersThat they never sentAnd wasn't she easyAnd isn't shePretty in pinkThe one who insistsHe was first in the lineIs the last toRemember her nameHe's walking aroundIn this dressThat she woreShe is goneBut the joke's the samePretty in pinkIsn't shePretty in pinkIsn't sheCaroline talks to youSoftly sometimesShe says'I love you' and'Too much'She doesn't have anythingYou want to stealWellNothing you can touchShe wavesShe buttons your shirtThe trafficIs waiting outsideShe hands you this coatShe gives you her clothesThese cars collidePretty in pinkIsn't shePretty in pinkIsn't she



Love My Way

There's an army
On the dance floor
It's a fashion
With a gun my love
In a room
Without a door
A kiss is not enough
In
Love my way
It's a new road
I follow where
My mind goes
They'd put us
On a railroad
They'd dearly
Make us pay
For laughing
In their faces
And making it our way
There's emptiness
Behind their eyes
There's dust
In all their hearts
They just want to
Steal us all
And take us all apart
But not in
Love my way
It's a new road
I follow where
My mind goes
So swallow
All your tears my love
And put on
Your new face
You can never win or lose
If you don't
Run the race



Ghost in you

A man in my shoes runs a light
All the papers lie tonight
but falling over you
is the news of the day
Angels fall like rain
and love , is all of heaven way
inside you the time moves and she don't fade
the ghost in you she don't fade away
The race is on, IM on your side
but hearing you my engines died
I'm in the mood for you
or for running away
All the stars come down in you
but love, love, love you cant give it away
inside you the time moves and she don't fade
the ghost in you she don't fade
inside you the time moves and she don't fade away
don't you know she don't fade
don't you go it makes no sense
and all these talking superman
just take away the time just to get it away
aint it just like the rain
cause love,love,love,love is only heaven away
inside you the time moves and she don't fade
the ghost in you she don't fade away
inside you the time moves and she don't fade away
the ghost in you she don't fade
A man in my shoes runs a light
but all the papers lie tonight 
falling over you is the news of the day
and love will not fade away
and love love love will not fade away
