Everything But the Girl দুইজনের ব্যান্ড ।দম্পতি । এই ব্যান্ডটা সবার কাছে খুব একটা পরিচিত না ।
আমিও শুনি নাই তেমন --- একটা গান শুনছিলাম hackers ছবির সাউন্ডট্রেকের সৌজন্যে --

অসাধারন লাগল -- এর পর খুজে খুজে আরও গান বের করে শুনলাম

LULLABY OF CLUBLAND

How much of yourself do you give away
After someone's left your life in disarray?
It still hurts
But it won't show
Because I'm too proud
So you're never ever gonna know.

I'm on the dark side of the street,
Not the light side of the street.

It's packed at 2am.
I've got no coat,
Are you on your own?
I'm into you.
When are you going home?
Get into me.

How much of the day can you sit around
Letting all your feelings drag underground?
I don't care and I do care
Because I want it
If I know that it's out there everywhere.

I'm on the dark side of the street,
Not the light side of the street.

It's packed at 2am.
I've got no coat,
Are you on your own?
I'm into you.
When are you going home?
Get into me.

I saw you standing at the bar,
Don't know your name or who you are.

It's packed at 2am.
I've got no coat,
Are you on your own?
I'm into you.
When are you going home?
Get into me.

Missing --

Step off the train
I'm walking down your street again
Past your door
You don't live there anymore
It's years since you've been there
Now you disappeared somewhere
Like outer space
You found some better place

And I miss you
Like a deserts miss the rain
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain

And could you be dead
You always were two steps ahead
Of everyone
I walked behind and you would run
I looked out by your house
And I could almost hear you shout down to me
Where I always used to be

And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain

Back on the train
I asked why did I come again
Can I confess
I've been hanging around your old address
And years have proved
To offer nothing since you moved
You're long gone
And I can't move on

And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain

Step off the train
I'm walking down your street again
Past your door
I guess you don't live there anymore
It's years since you've been there
Now you disappeared somewhere
Like outer space
You found some better place

And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain


Mirrorball --

you never knew the teenage me
and you would not believe
the things you didn't see
some pretty some ugly
and the lovely mirrorball
reflected back them all
every triumph every fight
under disco light

c'mon, girl, it's all right
c'mon, girl, it's all right now
c'mon girl, it's gonna be all right now

well, I guess some boys adored me
but the one I loved ignored me
and caused me in the end
to murder my best friend
and though I got her letter
it never did get better
and I got out of my head
then I joined a band instead

c'mon, girl, it's all right
c'mon, girl, it's all right now
c'mon, girl, it's gonna be all right now

some good times I remember
my birthday that september
we laid down on the lawn
and counted until dawn
the stars that we lay under
and is he still I wonder
the fairest of them all
mirror mirrorball
mirrorball

c'mon, girl, it's too late
c'mon, girl, it's too late now
c'mon, girl, let it all go
c'mon, girl, it's too late now
c'mon, girl,
it's gonna be all right
c'mon, girl,
it's never gonna be all right
it's too late now
let it all go
it's never gonna be all right
