I was riding shotgun
With my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
He's got a one-hand feel
On the steering wheel
The other on my heart
I look around, turn the radio down
He says, "Baby, is something wrong?"
I say, "Nothing
I was just thinking
How we don't have a song"
And he says...
Our song is the slamming screen door
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
'Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date: "Man, I didn't kiss her, and I should have."
And when I got home ... 'fore I said, "Amen"
Asking God if he could play it again
I was walking up
The front porch steps
After everything that day
Had gone all wrong
And been trampled on
And lost and thrown away
Got to the hallway,
Well, on my way
To my lovin' bed
I almost didn't notice
All the roses
And the note that said...
Our song is the slamming screen door
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
'Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date: "Man, I didn't kiss her, and I should have"
And when I got home ... 'fore I said, "Amen"
Asking God if he could play it again
I've heard every album, listened to the radio
Waited for something to come along
That was as good as our song...
'Cause our song is the slamming screen door
Sneakin' out late, tapping on his window
When we're on the phone and he talks real slow
'Cause it's late and his mama don't know
Our song is the way he laughs
The first date: "Man, I didn't kiss him, and I should have"
And when I got home ... 'fore I said, "Amen"
Asking God if he could play it again
Play it again
Oh, yeah...
Oh-oh, yeah
I was riding shotgun
With my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
I grabbed a pen
And an old napkin
And I wrote down our song
Aš asmeniškai boikotuoju tokius siūlymus ir nebalsuoju už juos (kaip, beje, boikotuoju ir beveik visus koverius, nebent tas koveris kažkoks smarkiai inovatyvus). Bet ne visi kreipia į tai dėmesį ir balsuoja tiesiog už pažįstamą atlikėją.
Dėl Tony Iommi - čia kažkoks jau pattern'as. Priminsiu, kad Scent of Dark, 2021-ais išleista, mūsų tope pasirodė 2025-ais. Beje, išbuvo visas 12 savaičių, buvo pasiekusi pirmą vietą ir užima 46 vietą 2025-ųjų top100-uke. Absurdas.
Įdomu buvo gyvai pajust grupės laikyseną. Kokia visgi tai gotikinė grupė… Ėjau klausytis As I Die, o teko iš naujo perkratyti diskografiją. Vien dėl to verta dalyvauti koncertuose, nes privačiam patyrime gali paaiškėti, kad esi aklojoje zonoje.
