Vidéo : The Stranglers – This Song

On peut préférer le retour des Stranglers à celui d’ABBA. Après avoir rendu un hommage sensible à leur claviériste Dave Greenfield décédé l’année dernière du Coronavirus avec And I Should See Dave, Jean-Jacques Burnel envoie du lourd avec This song.

Point besoin de rajeunir avec des hologrammes les Stranglers, activistes rock depuis 1974. This Song met en scène l’ex footballer Stuart ‘psycho’ Pearce, fan ultime du groupe avec plus de 300 concerts à son actif dans une course poursuite rageuse en noir et blanc irriguée par la basse trépidante de Burnel.

Dark Matter des Stranglers sortira le 10 septembre avec un CD bonus de 8 titres live en précommande.

The Stranglers – This Song

I’m collecting all these feelings for you
Put them in a box in a darkened room
And seal the lid with an industry standard glue
Make the box into a silent tomb
With all these photographs and pictures of you
Taken in a car and someone else’s front room

This song will get me over you
Lift me up and take me out of view
This song that says that she’ll hurt you once or twice
But she’ll never be with you the way you want her to
This song will get me over you

Take the box into uncharted seas
Far away from all humanity
And swear the crew to absolute secrecy
Sink the box down to the ocean floor
For maybe 20,000 leagues or more
And ban deep sea diving by an act of law

This song will get me over you
Lift me up and take me out of view
This song that says that she’ll hurt you once or twice
But she’ll never be with you the way you want her to
This song will get me over you

Ill trust in Davy Jones’ locker
Far from any grave robber
To steal away all the memories of you
And all the people they may wonder
That I no longer seem to bother
And I appear to be completely over you

This song will get me over you
Lift me up and take me out of view
This song that says that she’ll hurt you once or twice
But she’ll never be with you the way you want her to
This song will get me over you
Lift me up and take me out of view
This song that says that she’ll hurt you once or twice
But she’ll never be with you the way you want her to
This song will get me over you
This song will get me over you
This song will get me over you
This song will get me over you
If that’s what I really wanna do
