Artist- Chvrches
Song of the day- Do I wanna know?
I know what you're thinking. It has been 4 days since you restarted your blog, where is the dancy music? Today is your day. So I was slightly late (only slightly) on my discovery of Chvrches and it was actually through today's cover song I realized the brilliance that is Chvrches. I'm obsessed with good covers and have discovered many gems through Australian radio's "like a version" series. Now I know I should appreciate Arctic Monkeys far more than I do, but what I like about a cover is sometimes it uncovers (a zing!) total greatness of a song I had at first not appreciated. The melody and lyrics are flawless and perhaps just needed a pixie girl and synth for me to see it. (Sorry die hard AM fans.) But it's such a universal concept of being happy in liking someone and not sure if you want to stay in that blissful one sided crush fantasy world or making it a reality and risking losing that perhaps fake but still true filling of glee. And alas, I am president of safe fantasy living world. So far all those in the running for vice-president and the ones who brave reality. This dance jam is for you.
Have you got color in your cheeks'
Do you ever get the feeling that you can't shift the tide
That sticks around like something's in your teeth
And some aces up your sleeve
I had no idea that you're in deep
I dreamt about you near me every night this week
How many secrets can you keep'
'Cause there's this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow
When I play it on repeat
Until I fall asleep
Spilling drinks on my settee
(Do I wanna know?)
If this feeling flows both ways
(Sad to see you go)
Was sorta hoping that you'd stay
(Baby we both know)
That the nights were mainly made for saying
things that you can't say tomorrow day
Crawlin' back to you.
Ever thought of calling when you've had a few?
'Cause I always do
Maybe I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody new
Now I've thought it through
Crawling back to you
So have you got the guts?
Been wondering if your heart's still open and
if so I wanna know what time it shuts
Simmer down and pucker up
I'm sorry to interrupt it's just I'm constantly
on the cusp of trying to kiss you
I don't know if you feel the same as I do
But we could be together, if you wanted to
(Do I wanna know?)
If this feeling flows both ways
(Sad to see you go)
Was sorta hoping that you'd stay
(Baby we both know)
That the nights were mainly made for saying
things that you can't say tomorrow day
Crawling back to you
Ever thought of calling when you've had a few? (calling when you've had a few)
'Cause I always do ('cause I always do)
Maybe I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody new
Now I've thought it through
Crawling back to you, (do I wanna know?)
If this feeling flows both ways
(Sad to see you go)
Was sorta hoping that you'd stay
(Baby we both know)
That the nights were mainly made for saying
things that you can't say tomorrow day
(Do I wanna know?)
Too busy being yours to fall
(Sad to see you go)
Ever thought of calling darling?
(Do I wanna know)
Do you want me crawling back to you?
