Sam Sparro - Black and Gold

I first heard about this song from Kabian, who said it was from FIFA09. I gave it a try, it sounds really nice. I actually liked the song the first time I heard it, a rare case from me who needs some convicing before digging a song.

If Katy Perry did a cover on it, why shouldn't it be a boring song? X)




If the fish swam out of the ocean
and grew legs and they started walking
and the apes climbed down from the trees
and grew tall and they started talking

and the stars fell out of the sky
and my tears rolled into the ocean
now i'm looking for a reason why
you even set my world into motion


'cause if you're not really here
then the stars don't even matter
now i'm filled to the top with fear
but it's all just a bunch of matter
'cause if you're not really here
then i don't want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold


i looked up into the night sky
and see a thousand eyes staring back
and all around these golden beacons
i see nothing but black

i feel a way of something beyond them
i don't see what i can feel
if vision is the only validation
then most of my life isn't real

'cause if you're not really here
then the stars don't even matter
now i'm filled to the top with fear
but it's all just a bunch of matter
'cause if you're not really here
then i don't want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold


Too bad Island Records don't let anyone embed the music video. So here it is:


It's really unique, give your ears some alternatives instead if a certain "Wanita Gila" or the band who came close landing on Mars. Until then, good bye!
