Felt - Grey Streets

CRELP 011
Released: Sep 1986

Grey streets and streets of grey
Patrolled by knights from the invading day
Closing eyelids stutter and tumble and turn away
Makeshift memories they collide for another stay
I was attracted to you because the forces were so blind
And you were attracted to me
Because my face smiled down from a wall
And you said I looked kind
Well hello it's me again
I just called 'round to see my friend
'Cause when I'm talking to you can't you see that the world's aglow
You're so semi-precious about life and you won't let your feelings show
I was a photograph
I was a picture on display
You were so negative because once I owned the world
But I gave it away
I am here and you are there
We are near so why should we care
You almost wish you werw dying it would be an excuse to really live
I sometimes wonder why 'cause you've got nothing left to give
And I was attracted to you
Because the forces were so blind
And you were attracted to me
Because my face smiled down from a wall
And you said I looked kind.

@stephenp1968 sorry to burst your bubble man, but we couldn't care less if you're sorry or not.

[stephenp1968]

Sorry to burst your bubble foilks, but these guys arent anywhere near as good as Echo & the Bunnymen or The Smiths. Actually, Im not sorry.

ultimate classic

[jackonfire85]

Underrated band, this album and "strange idols pattern..." are two jewels

[MrGreathorse]

It is impossible to be this good and make it, no mystery they didn't hit it big to me. But people will discover them slowly over the years and their star will shine for a very long time

I got this record for about ten bucks in Nashville. First pressing, Creation, etc. Gotta love Nashvillians' general lack of music knowledge. It's one of the only reasons I miss living there

@emile235 Who cares about chart positions? Felt didnt & thats just one of the reasons why they were better than Echo & The Bunny men, The Smiths etc
