1980s=cold war, getting shockingly drunk, smoking cintrolled drugs, and listening to music such as this, what a Glorious disaster it was

music to kill yourself to-- by Colin Newman

Wow! One from the time machine indeed..... almost forgot all about Colin....
Fanx mate for this one! :o)

I love this song. Had no idea there was a video for it though, or that Colin had ever sported such a magnificent beard!
-
I had no idea there was a video for this! It's such a hypnotic song..
-
What a quirky video. Colin in full-on monk, I see... Reminds me, of all things, of Steve Carrell's character in Little Miss Sunshine, both in appearance and feeling. Sad, yet amusing.

A tiny facet, a twisted image of what might be me
A risk I've taken, a line that's drawn between the A and B
Although it seems a long time since we've all been here
We can't return, we can't stand still

In peopled spaces, we shrink our lives as we make our dreams
Pretending action, reporting lives that are out of reach
Although it's been a long time, I've never been here
I have no wish to return and I'm not standing still
Da-da-da-da da-da-da-da
Under water over ground
Da-da-da-da da-da-da-da
No width no breadth
