Something More

Dizzy now, I can't explain
How you made me feel today
Off-guard you caught me there
Never thought this would go anywhere
That look was in your eye
No hurry to say goodbye
Was it something you had planned
When your fingers touched my hand?
I've read it wrong before
Imagination running wild
How can I ever be sure?
I wonder could we be together?
If it’s not just a game you play
Where do I find the words to say?
Could there be something more?
Don’t say never
I love you now just as a friend
I wouldn’t want all that to end
But imagine something more
When tomorrow comes around
Maybe things will settle down
All the signals disappeared
A little miscommunication here
Still I wonder what will be
How you'll act when you're around me
What if things are changing now
Will I know, and if so, how?
'Cause I've got it wrong before
Another soul, another time
So I need to feel for sure
Could we two be together?
If it’s not just a game you play
Where do I find the words to say?
Could there be something more?
Don’t say never
I love you now just as a friend
I wouldn’t want all that to end
But imagine something more
Us together
If it’s not just a game you play
Where do I find the words to say?
Could there be something more?
Don’t say never
I love you now just as a friend
I wouldn’t want all that to end
But imagine something more

If you wonder where The Beatles played on Savile Row
I can guarantee you now that he won't know
At the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
He's rubbish at the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Don't bother asking him who sang "Come On Eileen"
He doesn't know, that's why I don't want him on my team
At the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
He's rubbish at the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
The prize money we could win you'll never see
He'll make us look bad, don't do this to me
Why you'd want him with us is a mystery
He knows nothing about pop history
He thought Donna Summer was a singer in The Supremes
Don't suggest he'd be an asset to our team
At the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
He's rubbish at the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
With all the rolling, my eyeballls are getting fatigue
He thought there really was a waitress in The Human League
At the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
He's rubbish at the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Rubbish at the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
He's rubbish at the pop quiz (oh-oh-oh-oh)
He's rubbish at the pop quiz
So rubbish at the pop quiz
He's rubbish at the pop quiz
So rubbish at the pop quiz

The Photocopies Michigan
Unapologetically old-school #indiepop in a mid-80s-to-early-90s vein, made without secret plans to fill stadiums (ugh). Think lo-fi #c86 #twee #postpunk #janglepop etc. Originally from London.

Dust in the Path of Love
by The Reds, Pinks & Purples
supported by 17 fans who also own “Triple B-side (EP)”
I desperately needed something intoxicating and cathartic and this is just what the doctor ordered. Catchy melodies slathered deep in fuzz.

Very difficult to choose a favourite track! An amazing band, amazing sound

IV
by Letting Up Despite Great Faults
On their latest LP, the Austin group peel away the synth and distortion to highlight the jangly melodies at the core of their songs.

On “Exposure & Response,” Troper writes the kind of songs that would have filled stadiums in a bygone era.
