I can't get get enough of this tune. I've heard all the live versions, seen it live at Brixton but, for me, the album version wins hands down. It's the most sinister song they've done since TIHOE for me and the first song of theirs I've properly caned since Peeled Apples. Love it.

Anyone got any decent interpretations of the lyrics?

No, I mean interpretations. What's it about to folk? Not transcripts

I did check http://www.officialcharts.com/singles-chart/ to see if it had charted. But nothing. Turns out more people were excited for Morrissey instead.

I listened to the lyrics again and think that's what they really are:
Europa Geht Durch Mich Europe had a language problem German roads, they gave me vision I've seen the future, it's not written This motion makes a modern love song European skies, European desires European roads, European hopes European sons, European love European dreams, European screams European skies, European desires European roads, European hopes European sons, European love European dreams, European screams Europa geht durch mich Europa geht durch mich Geister wie verlebter Schlaf Zeit, die ich zurückgelassen habe Renne weiter um zu fliehen Renne weiter weg vom Leben European skies, European desires European roads, European hopes European sons, European love European dreams, European screams European skies, European desires European roads, European hopes European sons, European love European dreams, European screams Europa geht durch mich Europa geht durch mich Europa geht durch mich Europa geht durch mich God builders, divine losers Let's salute eternalism More words and less meaning Communication disappearing Europäischer Himmel, Europäische Lust Europäische Straßen, Europäische Hoffnung Europäische Sonne, Europäische Liebe Europäische Träume, Europäische Schreie European skies, European desires European roads, European hopes European sons, European love European dreams, European screams Europa geht durch mich Europa geht durch mich Europa geht durch mich Europa geht durch mich --- In addition to the lyrics on msppedia: "verlebter Schlaf" is still not really a German saying, but "verlegt" means "misplaced" whereas "verlebt" means "jaded". This might make more sense. Nina also always sings "europäische...", never "european", but that might just have been an issue of paste©. Lastly, she sings "europäische Sonne", not "Söhne". The latter is the correct translation. sons = Söhne but "son" sounds more like "Sonne" (= sun). No idea if this was deliberstely changed or just a mistake she made recording her one take. |

Was really looking forward to hearing the studio version but the video thrown in is a great bonus...great song and video!.
Not liking WMTTB though... I am pretty sure this was the tune Robin Turner was raving about on twitter a while back or could there be an even better tune on the album?..would take a lot to beat this... Last edited by Kafir_Lover; 20-05-2014 at 13:47. |

This might well be my favourite song of theirs in 15 years. It'll either be this or '4 Ever Delayed' that has that prize.

It's a stonker from what i've heard on Youtube. I hope it's not too overproduced on the album.
Edit: Wait...what? There's a studio version out there? *goes hunting*

I don't know, I thought it was quite a good remix. Not up their with "La Tristessa" remix or "Faster". But enough there.
Such a shame I haven't got a turntable any more! |

£12.50 including P+P? The JFPL remix double album cost around that.
