Il 17 gennaio uscirà il secondo album “Ritual” dei White Lies.La band londinese che è legata alla scena del revival post-punk(Editors,Interpol…) si fa risentire con “Bigger Than Us”,un brano che va al di là delle mie aspettative(l’album d’esordio non mi è piaciuto) coniugando appeal commerciale ed il dark-mood che contraddistingue il genere.Spero solo che non sia il miglior brano del cd come lo era “To Lose My Life” nel disco d’esordio.

TESTO
You took the tunnel route home,
you’ve never taken that way with me before.
Did you feel the need for change?
Apologies on your fingernails,
love flickered in the city of lights,
Like good singers(?) on radio waves
I don’t need your tears
I don’t want your love
I just gotta get home.
And I feel like I’m breaking up,
and I wanted to stay,
Headlights on the hillside,
don’t take me this way,
I don’t want you to hold me,
I don’t want you to pray,
This is bigger than us…
You went where the horses cry,
you’ve never taken that way with me before.
Did you feel the need for change?
Guilt smeared across your lips,
I was tired and cold from the window
You’re cold, nothing has changed.
I don’t need your tears
I don’t want your love
I just gotta get home.
And I feel like I’m breaking up,
and I wanted to stay,
Headlights on the hillside,
don’t take me this way,
I don’t want you to hold me,
I don’t want you to pray,
This is bigger than us…
