I would dazzle you with brilliance
I like this life just the way it is,
And the castles all around me have been melting now for years
And it kills my brain to think of all the time I wasted here:
All the efforts, sweat and broken hearts, the screaming and the tears.
Coherent words fail me, but Iāll try to convey thisā¦
I came of ageācut my teeth so to speakāas Elfman⦠The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo⦠Oingo Boingo⦠and eventually just Boingo⦠blew the doors off what I thought music could be. Some of their later stuff is on par with Pink Floyd. Your mileage may vary; haters gonnaā hate and all that.
Visionsā not memories, but visceral visionsā Visions strike me when I listen to this music, (not just Change but a lot of it.) Riding in cars and trucks as a teenager⦠Going to bicycle races (both to race and to watch)⦠Lots of hard work with a boom-box or headphones⦠I once drove fence posts, by hand, around a small field powered by Oingo Boingo⦠I once saw them perform in a tiny hall, god-only-knows-where, in Manhattan, maybe in ā91 or ā92⦠I still have an Oingo Boingo shirt from, it might be, 1990?, that was given to me as a gift⦠I even have the double VHS of their final concertāand I know of noone with a VHS player any moreā¦
Oh, God, hereās that question now! The one that makes me go insane!
Iād gladly tear my heart out if you never change!
Never change!
Never change!
Never change!
Never! Never! Never! Never!
Changeā¦
Great music. Great memories.
Who do you want to be today? Who do you want to be?
