bowery electric - Without Stopping

John Maus - Streetlight (unofficial music video)

In high school, I discovered Bauhaus, Love & Rockets, and Tones on Tail…
The Album Pop is amazing. I collected all the crazy colored-vinyl 12” records.
Of all their songs, from goofy to darkly magnanimous, I love this one the best. So many cool elements – the bleeps, the low droning synths, the backwards stuff, the bassline, the reverse-reverb vocals… they all add up to a seriously epic masterpiece…

She said, Time to crush this feeling
Writing very long letters as soon as it rains
Ooh the rain

To dance the night away
He watches topless pin-up faces
A million different jackpots
With a thousand different gazes
Ooh the rain

But it’s time to crush this feeling
As soon as it rains
Ooh the rain

But it’s time to crush this feeling
As soon as it rains
Ooh the rain . . .


Tones On Tail - Rain

You bring your shine
I’ll rain hell
Hide away all night
In your happiness
The warm glow of your skin
Ignore with patience 

I’m on the other side
Watching the world go by
I know why you did
When you’re leaving I already miss you

Step barefoot across the glasslike shells
Storms kiss your glowing hair
Stare through the shadows a little bit
I hear voices as I follow this river forever
You bring your shine
I’ll rain hell

I’m on the other side
Watching the world go by
I can see why you did
I won’t forget you

Finding a place in line
Is everything alright?
Finding a place in line
Is everything alright?

I’m on the other side
Watching the world go by
I know why you did
When you’re leaving I already miss you
