Internet Killed the Video Star
About 6 months ago I was turned on to The Limousines; a very indy, underground band that only had a myspace and 1 song.
Since then their hype has grown considerably because of that one song… Very Busy People.
I instantly fell in love with that song, made everyone I have ever met listen to it 47 times and made it my ring tone for my own number so I could hear it anytime by just calling myself.
I loved it that much. Okay maybe not that much… but a lot!
So a few months have passed and my good buddy Tai Jun and I have spent considerable time scouring the internet for any new songs by them or any mention of an album.
Today… Tai hit me up on Gchat with a link to their new single, Internet Killed the Video Star.
And you know what? It’s just as good, if not better, than Very Busy People.
The production values on the video are awesome which means they have some financial backing now (I hope) and the album is due next week I believe.
I cannot wait. I’m incredibly pumped for this album.
Music is one of my biggest passions in life and right now, The Limousines are the hot new drug for my addiction.
Check them out. Now. Leave my site or just click below. I don’t care, but hear this shit.
Lyrics:
THE KIDS ARE DISCO DANCING
THEY’RE TIRED OF ROCK ‘N ROLL
I TRIED TO TELL ‘EM HEY THAT DRUM MACHINE AIN’T GOT NO SOUL
BUT THEY DON’T WANNA LISTEN
NO THEY THINK THEY’VE HEARD IT ALL
THEY TRADE THOSE GUITARS IN FOR DRUMS MACHINES AND DISCO BALLS
WE CAN’T REWIND NOW
WE’VE GONE TOO FAR
THE INTERNET KILLED THE VIDEO STAR
THE KIDS ARE DISCO DANCING
THEY’RE TIRED OF ROCK ‘N ROLL
DON’T BOTHER TELLING THEM THAT DRUM MACHINE AIN’T GOT NO SOUL
YOU KNOW WE NEVER LISTEN
WE THINK WE’VE SEEN IT ALL
LIKE EVERYTHING WE’RE DOING
NO ONE’S EVER DONE BEFORE
DID YOU HEAR WHAT THEY SAID
THAT ROCK ‘N ROLL IS DEAD
YEAH IT’S LIKE A ZOMBIE IT’LL DIG ITSELF BACK UP AGAIN
I TUNE IN THE SIGNAL BUT IT’S FADING
OH SOME GHOST STRUMMING HIS GUITAR ON THE RADIO
SINGING GLORY DAYS ARE GONE
BUT EVERYTHING’S OK
CUZ WE STILL LOVE OUR SEX AND DRUGS JUST LIKE THE GOOD OLD DAYS
THE KIDS ARE DISCO DANCING
THEY’RE TIRED OF ROCK ‘N ROLL
DON’T BOTHER TELLING THEM THAT DRUM MACHINE AIN’T GOT NO SOUL
THE KIDS ALL JUST GO DANCING
THEY’RE TRYING TO ROCK ‘N ROLL
DON’T BOTHER TELLING THEM THAT DRUM MACHINE AINT GOT NO SOUL
WELL I’M A HORRIBLE DANCER
I AIN’T GONNA LIE
BUT I’LL BE DAMNED IF THAT MEANS THAT I AIN’T GONNA TRY
YEAH I’M A SHITTY ROMANCER BABY
AIN’T GONNA LIE
BUT I’LL BE DAMNED IF THAT MEANS THAT I AIN’T GONNA TRY
AND GETCHA TO GET UP GET UP GET UP AND DANCE
THE KIDS ARE DISCO DANCING
THEY’RE TIRED OF ROCK ‘N ROLL
DON’T BOTHER TELLING THEM THAT DRUM MACHINE AINT GOT NO SOUL
WE CAN’T REWIND NOW
WE’VE GONE TOO FAR
THE INTERNET KILLED THE VIDEO STAR
