Music Monday - Republica
Republica - Ready to Go
Republica is from England and was formed back in 1994 by Tim Dorney and Andy Todd. The group took of with the addition of vocalist Saffron which gave them a vocalist to go along with their music. The band lifespan was unfortunately short lived and only consisted of two albums that spawned a few songs that made the airways. At the height their sound could be described as techno pop with a hint of rock. Their sound is very reminiscent of another female led group... Garbage, but they are in no way in the same league as them.
Ready to Go is probably their best known song and has been a mainstay in my working out song rotation. It's got a very good beat and the use of both electric and acoustic guitar is unusual and works for me. Hope you like it.
You're weird, in tears, too near and too far away,
He said, saw red, went home stayed in bed all day,
Your t'shirt, dish dirt,
Always love the one you hurt
It's a crack, I'm back yeah standing
On the rooftops shouting out,
Baby I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out
You sleep, too deep, one week is another world
Big mouth, big mouth, drop out, drop out
You get what you deserve
You're strange, insane, one thing you can never change
It's a crack, I'm back yeah standing
On the rooftops shouting out,
Baby I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out
It's a crack, I'm back yeah standing
On the rooftops having it
Baby I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out, shout it out
Abused, confused, always love the one that
hurt ya hurt ya hurt ya
It's a crack, I'm back yeah standing
On the rooftops shouting out,
Baby I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out
It's a crack, I'm back yeah standing
On the rooftops having it
Baby I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out, shout it out
It's a crack, baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go...

Techo certainly has made a name for itself but still, it all got it's start by way of classic rock, I'd say one needs to add in a bit of heart for balance on a music Monday ~

These Dreams
Spare a little candle
Save some light for me
Figures up ahead
moving in the trees
White skin in linen
perfume on my wrist
And the full moon that hangs over
These dreams in the mist
Darkness on the edge
Shadows where I stand
I search for the time
on a watch with no hands
I want to see you clearly
Come closer than this
But all that I remember
Are the dreams in the mist
These dreams go on
when I close my eyes
Every second of the night,
I live another life
These dreams that sleep
when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake,
the further I'm away
Is it cloak and dagger,
could it be spring or fall
I walk without a cut
through a stained glass wall
weaker in my eyesight,
the candle in my grip
And words that have no form
Are falling from my lips
These dreams go on
when I close my eyes
Every second of the night,
I live another life
These dreams that sleep
when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake,
the further I'm away
There's something out there
I can't resist
I need to hide away from the pain
There's something out there
I can't resist
The sweetest song is silence
that I've ever heard
It's funny how your feet in dreams never touch the earth
In a wood full of princes
freedom is a kiss
But the prince hides his face
from dreams in the mist
These dreams go on
when I close my eyes
Every second of the night,
I live another life
These dreams that sleep
when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake,
the further I'm away
These dreams go on
when I close my eyes
Every second of the night,
I live another life
These dreams that sleep
when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake,
the further I'm away
And of it's lyrical meaning ~
