lyrics

Blind Youth
Written by Ian Craig Marsh, Philip Oakey, Martyn Ware

Verse 1
No future they say
But must it be that way?
Now is calling
The city is human

Chorus
Blind youth take hope
You’re no Joe Soap
Your time is due
Big fun come soon

Verse 2
We’ve had it easy, we should be glad
High-rise living’s not so bad

Middle 8
Dehumanisation
Is such a big word
It’s been around since
Richard The Third
Dehumanisation
It’s easy to say
But if you’re not a hermit
You’ll know the city’s okay

Parralox Melbourne, Australia

If ever there was a new electronic pop band to encapsulate and emulate the legendary stylings of Depeche Mode, The Human League, Erasure, New Order, Pet Shop Boys and the spirit of Madonna in her 80s day-glo era, then Australia’s Parralox are that modern-day reincarnation. ... more

This 5 track EP has been inspired by the crossover between ambient, techno, and pure sound design. Sounds amazing. John. Parralox

A Secret Place
by xPropaganda

supported by 33 fans who also own “Blind Youth”

A Secret Wish is still an album I play to this day. It has never waned. I actually think it has got better with age. I'm not a fan generally of live recordings but this is one I love listening to. And Disziplin is on here too. Just as I remember it on The Tube. Who could ask for anything more? Just wish I would have been there but this is the next best thing. ❤ bazgray

Monsters
by Empathy Test

supported by 21 fans who also own “Blind Youth”

Bandcamp is my favorite app. Without Bandcamp I would missed out on a lot of great music like Empathy Test! A wonderful album. Occasionally bombastic with nice synths and the voice of Isaac Howlett on top. Well done guys💪🏽 Fredschuit
