THE SOUND : MISSILES (1980)

Η ταλαπωρία που υφίσταται η λέξη “συγκλονιστικό” στις μέρες μας, σε κάνει να το σκέφτεσαι διπλά πριν τη χρησιμοποήσεις. Σε ό,τι με αφορά το κάνω όταν θεωρώ άδικο να βάλω στη θέση της κάποια άλλη, απλώς και μόνο για να μην ακουστεί κοινότοπη. Ακούμε λοιπόν το συγκλονιστικό – και συγκλονιστικά επίκαιρο – τραγούδι των Sound από το δισκογραφικό τους ντεμπούτο. 🔴 🔴 The overuse that words like “shocking”, “staggering” suffer nowadays makes you think twice before using them. As far as I’m concerned, I do it only when I feel it would be unfair to replace them with some other word, just to avoid sounding cliché. So here it is then: the staggering — and shockingly relevant — song by The Sound from their debut album.

Written by: Adrian Borland Album: Jeopardy Producer: Nick Robbins, The Sound

Deep in the country
The factories hide
Where they make the missiles
That run our lives
Who the hell makes those missiles?
Who the hell makes those missiles?
Who the hell makes those missiles?
When they know what they can do
They’ve got the money
They’ve got the know-how
It’s all above our heads
It’s coming down now
Who the hell makes those missiles?
Who the hell makes those missiles? Missiles
Who the hell makes those missiles?
When they know what they can do
Missiles cause damage
And make an eerie sound
Missiles leave carnage
Where there once was a town
Who the hell makes those missiles?
Who the hell makes those missiles? Missiles
Who the hell makes those missiles?
When they know what they can do
Who the hell makes them?
Who the hell makes them?
Who the hell makes those missiles?
When they know what they can do?
