Clip of the week: n°3 11/06/2009

Ciao a tutti! eccomi qui con un nuovo "clip of the week". Protagonisti di questa settimana sono i The Wombats, band di liverpool formata da Mattew Murphy (voce, chitarra e tastiera) Dan Haggies (basso) e Tord Øverland-Knudsen (batteria). I tre ragazzi si incontrano al Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts. Questa scuola gli diede la possibilità di poter suonare ad un concerto in Cina. Ed infatti mentre in patria erano praticamente sconosciuti, proprio in Estremo Oriente la band iniziò ad ottenere consensi, specialmente dopo la pubblicazione di un album in Giappone chiamato "Girls, Boys and Marsupials" . La band rilascerà poi una seconda edizione limitata in vinile chiamata "Moving to New York" nel Gennaio del 2007. I singoli contenuti in questo disco ottengono ottime critiche dai DJ radiofonici inglesi. A maggio dello stesso anno i Wombats rilasciano il loro terzo singolo chiamato "Backfire at the Disco", che fa guadagnare successo al gruppo anche in patria. Il video è del loro ultimo singolo "'Let's Dance To Joy Division'" rilasciato nell'Ottobre del 2007, data che coincide con l'uscita del loro album di debutto "A Guide To Love, Loss And Dsperation", un album indie rock molto catchy e divertente che consiglio di ascoltare. Dopo il video troverete come sempre anche il testo. Bye!




I'm back in Liverpool,
And everything seems the same,
But I worked something out last night,
That changed this little boys brain,
A small piece of advice,
That took twenty-two years in the make,
And I will break it for you now,
Please learn from my mistakes,
Please learn from my mistakes.

Let's dance to joy division,
And celebrate the irony,
Everything is going wrong,
But we're so happy,
Let's dance to joy division,
And raise our glass to the ceiling,
'Cos this could all go so wrong,
But we're so happy,
Yeah we're so happy.

So if you're ever feeling down,
Grab your purse and take a taxi,
To the darker side of town,
That's where we'll be,
And we will wait for you and lead you through the dancefloor,
Up to the DJ booth,
You know what to ask for,
You know what to ask for.

Go ask for Joy Division,
And celebrate the irony,
Everything is going wrong,
But we're so happy,
Go ask for Joy Division,
And raise your glass to the ceiling,
'Cos this could all go so wrong,
But we're so happy,
So happy.

So let the love tear us apart,
I've found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
let the love tear us apart,
I've found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
(Let it tear us apart)
So let the love tear us apart,
I've found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
(Let it tear us apart)
So let the love tear us apart,
I've found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
Let it tear us apart,
Let it tear us apart.

Let's dance to joy division,
And celebrate the irony,
Everything is going wrong,
But were so happy,
Let's dance to joy division,
And raise our glass to the ceiling,
'Cos this could all go so wrong,
But we're so happy,
Yeah we're so happy,
So happy,
Yeah we're so happy,
So happy,
Yeah we're so happy.
