In LA there are no shadows
There are no shadows in LA
Our memory’s written backwards
Getting shorter every day
Here in a city that doesn’t talk back
Sing for the future run from the past
Oh the water’s rising fast
We followed the sunlight as far as we could
Were looking for heaven we found Hollywood
Where nobody’s selfish they’re all just misunderstood
Well it’s still so hard to tell you
Oh telling you is so hard
We’re as empty as the sidewalks
On Venice Boulevard
Oh I heard the angels singing
That Spanish siren call
Her flowers bloom in winter
If you survive the fall
Here in a city that doesn’t talk back
Sing for the future run from the past
Oh the fires fading fast
And we tried to concentrate
But the warmth of the windshield made it hard to stay awake
We followed the sunlight as far as we could
Were looking for heaven we found Hollywood
And the Japanese maple that watched patiently
As we lost our voices as it lost its leaves
And we followed the sunlight as far as we could
And I’m sorry the sun didn’t set where it should
But nobody’s selfish here we’re all just misunderstood

Ich werde nie den Moment vergessen, wie ich in Schwerin in einem Media-Markt das Album Warm Strangers bei den Reinhör-Stationen gesehen habe. Scheinbar hatte jamnd anders sich die CD zuvor reingezogen und dort liegen lassen. Das Cover hat mich angesprochen und ich hab die CD sofort in einen der CD-Spieler getan. Ich war hin und weg und knapp bei Kasse, und hab trotzdem die CD sofort gekauft. Vielen Dank, Vienna, für diese wunderschöne Erinnerung. mpfau

Vienna and Tanya- So fluid, lots of subtle voices in the sound. I enjoyed the male angst among the power of the female hope for a great future. Well done. Very much worth the wait after being teased from the first set of songs from the concept album tadjacks
