Radio Paradise (mobile)

Pick apart
The pieces of your heart
And let me peer inside
Let me in
Where only your thoughts have been
Let me occupy your mind
As you do mine
Your heart's a mess
You won't admit to it
It makes no sense
But I'm desperate to connect
You can't live like this
You have lost
(Too much love)
To fear, doubt and distrust
(It's not enough)
You just threw away the key
To your heart
You don't get burned
('Cause nothing gets through)
It makes it easier
(Easier on you)
But that much more difficult for me
To make you see…
Love ain't fair
So there you are
My love
Your heart's a mess
You won't admit to it
It makes no sense
But I'm desperate to connect
And you, you can't live like this
Your heart's a mess
You won't admit to it
It makes no sense
But I'm desperate to connect
And you can't live like this
Love ain't safe
You won't get hurt if you stay chaste
So you can wait
But I don't wanna waste my love

Just so you know - its not a band it is a person working on his own using a variety of instruments and electronics found here and there and put together in a home made studio and without the benefit of a label behind him. OK, I can understand you not liking it - but you have to give respect for someone who can produce something this good off their own back. [ Reply ]

colleen Jan 31, 2013 - 12:15	Wally sent me this album way back when too. That was neat. I get a kick from showing the cd cover to people where it says it was "recorded in bedrooms around Melbourne...." [ Reply ]
Tana Jan 31, 2013 - 12:11	Still the best Gotye song. RP sure knows how to spot a rising star. [ Reply ]

(And good for him, with all the success of his new record. Hard to believe that when I bought this cd from his website, he wrote a note thanking me!) I bought this album from his site too, and we passed a few emails back and forth. I doubt he is now that open now he has worldwide fame, but I know for certain his heart is in the right place.

Very nice - I stop and really listen almost unconsciously. Totally agree - Someone That I Used to Know is excellent, but there's something about this... [ Reply ]
Dinges,_the_Dude Jan 16, 2013 - 12:19	I really dig this! Hé, and the drumsolo near the end reminds me of "Take Five" from Dave Brubeck. Anyone? [ Reply ]
