VIDDIE:: EBTG "Rollercoaster"




VIDEO ONE:: 03:10
EBTG Video for "Rollercoaster"

----------------------
A quick post, as I'm swamped & busy keeping others up until all hours. In 1984, I bought My Ever Changing Moods by Paul Weller's Style Council. It featured the vocals of Tracey Thorn on a few tracks & the next year I would discover her collaboration with Ben Watt, Everything but the Girl. In '85, I played to death my import copy of the heavily acoustic Love Not Money. I lost track of EBTG until Amplified Heart, a handful of bittersweet songs with often cool synthwork intertwined with the acoustic arrangements. The big hit with umpteen remixes from AH was "Missing," but I love the sadness of "Rollercoaster" & the fact that Tracy Thorn is riding a bike in the apartment in this video. Sometimes we soundtrack our lives & I recently paired this with another track on the album, since my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway.


I still haven't got over it even now.
I want to spend huge amounts of time on my own.
I don't want to cause any serious damage.
I want to make sure that I can manage,
because I'm not really in your head,
I'm not really in your head.

And I see love and disaffection
and the clouds build up and won't pass over.
This is my road to my redemption.
And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway.

I still haven't got over it even now.
I want to spend huge amounds of time in my room.
And I'm not coming out until I feel ready,
not running out for a while my heart's unsteady,
and I'm not really in your head.
I'm not really in your head.

When you sky falls to minus zero,
well some things must dissappear.
Oh this is my road to my redemption.

And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway.
The names may have been changed but the faces are the same
The names may have been changed but as people we're not the same.

And I'm not, no I'm not, no I'm not
really in your head.

And my life is just an image of a rollercoaster anyway.
