Having a very scant knowledge of Spanish, I can only barely make out of the gist of this song. So, wanting an English translation, I attempted to wrangle the first line of the chorus from Google. Sometimes Google Translate works, and other times...
It makes sense.
I may love you
or I may not
Flower of the road
shut it up
or "you know I love ya honey, but could you put a sock in it for the next few miles"
I love love love 80's music. I wonder who copied who, the lead singer of The Cult and Steven Tyler of Arrowsmith are practically twins, atleast in style and manner of song delivery. Anyway She Sells Sanctuary is a big favorite of mine.
Jeez, having a good time watching music videos of 80's front men gyrating around on stage half naked. For some reason they must have thought they sang better without shirts on? Maybe they did. I've always been slighty ga ga over Depeche Mode. What awesome back up singers they had.
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
a fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
and celluloid heroes never really die...
I've had this song stuck in my head on repeat for days.... (yes, I know this is technically a 70s song)
Video Killed The Radio Star
Better than me. I've been sick with a cold this last week, and have been taking mucus stuff. Unfortunately, the box says the word 'expectorant' so you know what song I've had in my head? The song Gaston sings about himself in Beauty and the Beast, particularly the part where he announces proudly "I'm especially good at expectorating,*patooie*," (spits into a spittoon) and his cheer squad sings "Ten points for Gaston!"
You trying to tell me you didn't hear that shriek? That was something trying to get out of its premature grave, and I don't want to be here when it does. - Phantom of the Paradise (1974)

Omg

Oh yeah! That one's on the Wedding Singer soundtrack I think.

I love the energy and drive of it.
