It's you! It's me! And there's dancing!
Check this out first:
You! Me! Dancing! by Los Campesinos
So I wrote a little thing about this music video.
‘You! Me! Dancing!’ by Los Campesinos!
I
It barely matters
that our morningwatch
of echoing major chords
will sweep away the ghosts
of thorn-mingled ruins –
our mutual smallness remains.
Sun glares over the mountains,
houses rise like bruises
from the sickly patchwork
of hesitant string-picks.
How can you understand
the sunrise forging warehouses
from the shadows, building
inevitable momentum
from a frenzy of dischords?
II
Draw back from our disco of nuclear beats –
blasting this sphere to a cosmic glitterball –
which reminds me of no earthly thing
more than your eyes under the flashing blue
and violet light.
Thanks for reading,
Dave.
