Alphaville

Satt och kollade på ett avsnitt av O.C. när den här fantastiska låten kom. Var bara tvungen att sätt mig och lyssna på den. Jag måste nog säga att detta är en av mina tio favoritlåtar om jag ser till låtar jag gillat under många års tid, den blir liksom aldrig dålig, oavsett hur många gånger man lyssnar på den.

Ja, vad säger man. Texten talar för sig själv. Jag blir helt fylld av en grymt skön känsla av beslutsamhet och melankoli. Jag vill ut och förverkliga mina drömmar samtidigt som min åldersnoja gör sig påmind.

Läs och njut (eller ännu hellre; ladda ner och njut)

Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?
Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men
Can you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders we're getting in tune
The music's played by the madmen

Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever young

Some are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later they all will be gone
Why don't they stay young
It's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't want to perish like a fading horse
Youth is like diamonds in the sun
And diamonds are forever
So many adventures couldn't happen today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams are swinging out of the blue
We let them come true

Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever.
