The Races - The Bird And The Bee

Gone forever to the races
Pull your money out
Call your mother
Tell her something
Never go without

Pause a moment
Just a moment
Smoothing down your hair
Gone forever to forever
Feeling like despair

You wanted to
You wanted to
You wanted to be
You wanted to
You wanted to
You wanted to be

You work so hard
Just to light a little fire
Just to make things happen
For a reason
Just to get so tired

Just to feel every
Itty bitty god damned
Bone in your body
You wanted to be free

Wondering if the numbers that you see
Up on the wall
Take for granted all you know
And what you can't reclal

Call me honey, I don't mind
I guess I feel the same
Pull me under, kiss me hard
Pull me into frame

You wanted to
You wanted to
You wanted to be
You wanted to
You wanted to
You wanted to be

You work so hard
Just to light a little fire
Just to make things happen
For a reason
Just to get so tired

Just to feel every
Itty bitty god damned
Bone in your body
You wanted to be free

You work so hard
Just to light a little fire
Just to make things happen
For a reason
Just to get so tired

Just to feel every
Itty bitty god damned
Bone in your body
You wanted to be free

J'ai découvert ce groupe il y a quelques semaines (avant même de faire le lien avec le film "The Women") avec cette chanson et j'en suis directement tombée amoureuse. De la chanson comme du groupe d'ailleurs. Les magnifiques mélodies de Greg Kurstin ("The Bird") accompagnées de la superbe voix d'Inara George ("The Bee") sont un délice. Ça s'écoute et se savoure comme des petits gâteaux colorés à l'heure du thé.
(Note : j'adore leur univers, à la fois kitch, rétro mais chic :3)

Leurs albums en écoute sur Deezer
(mon préféré est l'EP "Please Clap Your Hands")
