I'm going to start a karoke thing going on here. Just for you.
(Also for me.)
What I shall do is post a music video, and the lyrics underneath. That way you can watch and sing along.
I'm sure you won't actually, but rest assured, I will.
Let's start with
I never thought much of this song, until I watched 'L'Arnacoeur'. That was some film. Ah, Romain Duris, comme il est beau...
Wake Me Up Before You Go Go - Wham!
Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!
Jitterbug!
You put the boom-boom into my heart,
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts.
Jitterbug into my brain,
Goes bang bang bang till my feet do the same.
But something's bugging me,
Something ain't right.
My best friend told me
What you did last night,
Left me sleeping
In my bed.
I was dreaming,
But I should've been with you instead.
CHORUS
Wake me up before you go go,
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo.
Wake me up before you go go,
I don't wanna miss it when you hit that high.
Wake me up before you go go,
'Cause I'm not planning on going solo.
Wake me up before you go go,
Take me dancing tonight.
I wanna hit that high...
You get the grey skies outta my way,
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day.
Turn a bright spark into a flame,
My beats per minute never been the same.
'Cause you're my lady,
I'm your fool.
Makes me crazy
When you act so cruel,
C'mon baby,
Let's not fight.
We'll go dancing
And everything will be alright.
REPEAT CHORUS
Cuddle up baby,
Move in tight.
We'll go dancing tomorrow night.
It's cold out there
But it's warm in bed.
They can dance,
We'll stay home instead.
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts.
Jitterbug into my brain,
Goes bang bang bang till my feet do the same.
But something's bugging me,
Something ain't right.
My best friend told me
What you did last night,
Left me sleeping
In my bed.
I was dreaming,
But I should've been with you instead.
CHORUS
Wake me up before you go go,
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo.
Wake me up before you go go,
I don't wanna miss it when you hit that high.
Wake me up before you go go,
'Cause I'm not planning on going solo.
Wake me up before you go go,
Take me dancing tonight.
I wanna hit that high...
You get the grey skies outta my way,
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day.
Turn a bright spark into a flame,
My beats per minute never been the same.
'Cause you're my lady,
I'm your fool.
Makes me crazy
When you act so cruel,
C'mon baby,
Let's not fight.
We'll go dancing
And everything will be alright.
REPEAT CHORUS
Cuddle up baby,
Move in tight.
We'll go dancing tomorrow night.
It's cold out there
But it's warm in bed.
They can dance,
We'll stay home instead.
Four things:
1) As I copied the lyrics from some lyric site, I was horrified by the number of mispelled words and the bad punctuation, so I went through it all and corrected it. I have allowed for artistic licence.
2) I hope I didn't lose any of my street cred because of this. Agh. The damage is done.
3) I hope I didn't lose any of my precious few followers because of this. (I love you. Don't leave me. It's not what it looks like. I was thinking of you the whole time, I promise.)
4) I feel I must justify myself by saying that actually 'The Next Time Around' by Little Joy, is the most played song on my iPod.
"I hope I didn't lose any of my street cred because of this."
