I don't think that it's
Gonna rain again today
There's a devil at your side
But an angel on the way
Someone hit the light
'Cause there's more here to be seen
When you caught my eye
I saw everywhere I'd been
And wanna go to
You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe
I won't disappoint you
As you fall apart
Some things should be simple
Even an end has a start
Someone hit the light
'Cause there's more here to be seen
When you caught my eye
I saw everywhere I'd been
And wanna go to
You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe
You'll lose everything
By the end
Still my broken limbs
You find time to mend
More and more people I
Know are getting ill
Pull something good from the
Ashes, now be still
You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe
You'll lose everything
By the end
Still my broken limbs
You choose to mend
You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
You came on your own
You came on your own
Gonna rain again today
There's a devil at your side
But an angel on the way
Someone hit the light
'Cause there's more here to be seen
When you caught my eye
I saw everywhere I'd been
And wanna go to
You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe
I won't disappoint you
As you fall apart
Some things should be simple
Even an end has a start
Someone hit the light

When you caught my eye
I saw everywhere I'd been
And wanna go to

That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe
You'll lose everything
By the end
Still my broken limbs

More and more people I

You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
You came on your own
You came on your own

Reminds me of The Killers. The singer sounds a bit like the guy from Joy Division...Not my kind of sound.
sounds like Kitchens of Distinction ![music](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/icon_music.gif)

How do you account for a 10 year gap in comments? Just a little blow away as I assume this song has t hit Bill’s playlist in that long. Me likely!
so amazing. and so much more that Interpol
Played at 11. Gotta be.
This is the very definition of 'a driving beat'.
'Smokers' is also excellent.

Makes me think of that sentence sometimes written above urinals,
"the future of <insert your country's name here> is in your hands".

End this. That would be a start.
Interpol, you suck, no matter what you're calling yourself in this song.

Saw them at the Melt!-Festival a few weeks ago. Great gig, great band. Great album as well.

Ah, Ian Curtis, we miss ye, lad
I really don't like their singer. Overwrought and grating as hell. It makes me think of what Bruce Campbell would sound like in a fake parody rock band
...my brain hears scolding of poor orgy ettiquette...

No it's fat Mary and her four sisters!
Truely a great piece. Hope to hear more of this kind of music.
YES!

re career set: The Pretenders?
this song reminds me a lot of Interpol, who i love.
![tongue](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/icon_tongue.gif)
I give it a 2. And that means I am being nice. These guys are a rip-off of a host of bands who do a much better job of re-interpreting the good ole '80's. Like Interpol.

Yes, but so catchy that by the middle of the song you are tired of it. really goes nowhere for me.

Wish in one hand... ;^)
Reminds of stuff i used to hear on KROC (L.A.)
back in time when it played great stuff!
They ripped off the "hourly chime" melody.

Has a serious 80s groove to it. Thinking early Echo or maybe the Numbers.
I just bumped it from 7 to 8. Like you care.
Like it more each time I hear this.

Did a ctrl+F to search for Joy Division in this string before posting my own. Saved me a bit of work.
Interpol, why did you change your name?

Heh, nice work if you can get it.
i still can't believe this isn't interpol.

LOL - did I say I didn't like this? Before you start to shove people into boxes to match your perceptions, ask yourself if they'd be listening to Radio Paradise if they weren't "adventurists". ![roll eyes](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/icon_rolleyes.gif)

I agree, I had to turn the volume completely down. Of course, what could follow that song? Except, maybe, "Here Comes The Sun"?

Oh and yes, I hear Interpol, but a friendlier Interpol, you know, one picking daisies, opening doors for old ladies.

Has a Kitchens of Distinction or Trash Can Sinatras sound with the sonic oscillating guitar effect and a bit of the Killers in the delivery IMO. Catchy, will have to listen to more. Thanks Bill!

Nevertheless, it is nice to hear that voice. It's as if Ian rose from the grave.

Very inspired by early goth. I like this a lot.
Great!

I just uploaded it. And, yes, it's much better. More power. More intensity.

And it's been rejected with no LRC plays. Color me puzzled. :-(
I like this song despite being annoyed that so many of these new new wave bands sound just like the predecessors and sometimes each other (Elefant, anyone?)
Anyone else have the whole CD? How good? Worth a buy?
I was completely prepared to dismiss this tune... Interpol (modern day's BeeGees) or countless others. But as I listened, I could hear a real earnestness and wit to the lyrics. Definitely worth another listen. Likeable anyway.
Joy Division anyone?
These last 2 songs sound like they are describing dying to me.
4:18 pm - Editors - An End Has A Start
4:15 pm - Patty Griffin - Blue Sky
Not necessarily depressing.
Sounds good to me! Of course I have been a Depeche Mode Fan for years....

It says that you like Interpol and the way that this song drones on and that you're in good company.

I'm with Bill on this. Clever, maybe it will grow on me. solid 6
These guys have definitely heard Interpol.
reminds me of Morrissey.
New editors cd?? Awesome! These guys tore up Lollapalooza last year.
New Editors?! Nice! Update - Sounds *a lot* like the last album...I look forward to the rest of it though. They play a good show.
