from Oannes *

H συνεισφορά του καλού φίλου του blog, Emmanouel στο car-related music tribute: ένα υπέρ-ευχάριστο ποπ τραγούδι από τους άγνωστους σε μένα Ισπανούς Gospel Music, με φωνητικά από την Tracey Anne Campbell [Camera Obscura]. Καλό να “βλέπει” κανείς το είδος της indie pop να επιβιώνει, αν και χειμαζόμενο.

A contribution to the car-related music tribute from the good friend of the blog Emmanouel : a hyper pleasant pop song by the Spanish band Gospel Music, unknown to me, with vocals from Tracey Anne Campbell [Camera Obscura].
It is good to “see” indie pop surviving, even in days like these.

❝ I’ve got a little Honda, it ain’t much but it’s paid for
He’s got a little Honda, it ain’t much but it’s paid for
Two doors is too few doors, two more doors makes for four doors
Two doors is too few doors, two more doors makes for four doors
Most times it’s just a way to get from A to B
But B turns into C then D occasionally
That’s when I don’t call it a car — I call it an automobile
Automobile, take me away
Take me to the forest, to the mountains, to the bay
Take me where the trees
Slow dance with the breeze
Automobile, take me away
To Ipanema, to Morocco, to Bombay
Take me where palm trees
Sway in the seabreeze
Lover, our love notes have fallen off the major scale
Lover, it’s as if our love could use a stiff cocktail
So let’s take a little trip, over hill and over dale
Let’s take a little trip, but not by rail and not by sail
Blind spots are on our hearts — let’s get a better view
If you can’t see my tears, I can’t see you
Darling, don’t you call it a car — call it an automobile
Automobile, take us away
To another year, another month, another day
To the first time we
Slow danced by the sea
A-U-T-O-M-O-B-I-L-E
Automobile, take us away
Take us to the forest, to the mountains, to the bay
Take us where they steam
Tamales in banana leaves
Automobile, take us away
To another year, another month, another day
To the first time we
Slow danced by the sea
Automobile
Automobile
Automobile ❞
