![]() Essential (1993) [ larger cover art ] |
The sun
Blowing the moon away
Lights me up for
One more day
The streets are naked
In the morning sun
The night lifts behind me
I run and run
Morning heat
Puts a thin film of sweat on my face
A little man, his eyes half closed
Puts chairs on tables
Admires his work
And collects a quarter from the floor
I head over to Broadway
Where I watch myself
Having a slow breakfast
Trying to impress the barman with a fresh voice
When I ask for the bill
The sun
Blowing the moon away
Lights me up for
One more day
The streets are naked
In the morning sun
The night lifts behind me
I run and run
Desire
Desire for the unknown eyes
Desire for the unknown name
I'm burning in the morning sun, I want to run
Desire for the unknown name
Desire for the unknown love
I'm burning in the morning sun

perfect comment. police - bring on the night - should be next. uh-oh!!! here comes a serious drum solo! :) I'd give this a 6 -- it needs a little more oomph. |
| Coffee-Orphi (Koblenz/Germany) | Posted: Nov 08, 2006 - 04:08 This version is a little different (less beat) than the original one from the album "Stella". Or maybe it`s just the typical difference that almost appear between european and american versions ...... something, I never really understand. |

| Dave_B (Bristol, UK) | Posted: Sep 25, 2006 - 05:25 AAhh, the band CAN could have been...Like The Beatles could have been Wings! |
| yclept (on the threshold of the sea to sky) | Posted: Sep 10, 2006 - 14:05 not good enough to be on the playlist...crikey, I can even understand Bill's affection for Ozzy's "Crazy Train" but there is no excuse for this |
| AphidA (Alexandria, VA) | Posted: Jun 29, 2006 - 08:48 This thoroughly sucks |
| AlienRelic (Lost in a lost world) | Posted: Jun 29, 2006 - 08:48 I never heard any music from Yello before I started listening to RP. Their music is kind of hard to classify and seems kind of "eclectic", but I like what I've heard so far. |
| hippiechick | Posted: Jun 29, 2006 - 08:47 Just like some peeps don't get 60's music, I totally don't get this 80's crap. All the cheesy synthesizers! |

excellent movie |
| novacura (Rotterdam, Holland) | Posted: May 31, 2006 - 03:38 Considering that they come from a yodelling country, they have made a positive contribution to the 80s and 90s electronic scene. Need to hear more Yello from Bill. |

Thank you! It's been driving me crazy trying to remember where I know the name Yello from. Now I have the strong desire to watch that movie |
| SoundsGoodToMe | Posted: May 16, 2006 - 13:10 For me, Yello is forever known as the band that did Oh Yeah at the end of Ferris Bueller's Day Off. |

| aflanigan (Downstream) | Posted: May 16, 2006 - 13:09 Cool. Used to hear a track called "La Habanera" on WHFS in the old days. Expand your horizons! |
| ElSupreme (ATL) | Posted: May 16, 2006 - 13:08 Now I know what my friends were talking about when they where hearing yellow. And I thought it was the acid. |

| ahoylola (Morro Bay, CA) | Posted: Jan 19, 2006 - 07:21 sounds like leonard cohen. love it! |
