    The song that changed my life, start of the six weeks holidays, long hair, flares, at the end off, skinhead, doc's and a red Fred Perry, would do it all again

    Each day I walk along this lonely street
    Trying to find, find a future
    New pair of shoes are on my feet
    Cause fashion is my only culture
    Nothing ever change, oh no
    Nothing ever change
    People say to me just be yourself
    It makes no sense to follow fashion
    How could I be anybody else
    I don't try, I've got no reason
    Nothing ever change, oh no
    Nothing ever change
    I'm just living in a life without meaning
    I walk and walk, do nothing
    I'm just living in a life without feeling
    I talk and talk, say nothing
    Nothing ever change, oh no
    Nothing ever change
    I walk along this same old lonely street
    Still trying to find, find a reason
    Policeman comes and smacks me in the teeth
    I don't complain, it's not my function
    Nothing ever change, oh no
    Nothing ever change
    They're just living in a life without meaning
    I walk and walk, do nothing
    They're just playing in a life without thinking
    They talk and talk, say nothing
    I'm just living in a life without feeling
    I walk and walk, I'm dreaming
    I'm just living in a life without feeling
    I talk and talk, say nothing
    I'm just living in a life without meaning
    I walk and walk, do nothing

    My friends were all into Styx, Journey, Foreigner et al. I wasn’t. I saw these guys on SNL doing “Gangsters”, and it was nothing but New Wave after that.

    Adam Curtis knocks it out of the park again this year by using this song to open his latest BBC series, Can't Get You Out of My Head (2021). It sounds so good.

    This is an unsung tune in their cannon. So so good. One of their best, and over time coming up on the rails of better known tracks. Shall I get my coat? I'll get my coat.

  • @sinqobilebandile6558
    @sinqobilebandile6558 Před rokem +3

    such a great song, i was obsessed with it when i first found it, it's a bit absurd how "happy" it sounds compared to the lyrics, probably one of the reasons I love it so much.. reminds me of one of my favourite camus quotes:
    "the struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart"
