I don't want to be shy
Can't stand it anymore
I just want to say "Hi"
To the one I love

Cherry blossom girl

I feel sick all day long
From not being with you
I just want to go out
Every night for a while

Cherry blossom girl

Tell me why can't it be true

I never talk to you
People say that I should
I can pray everyday
For the moment to come

Cherry blossom girl

I just want to be sure
When I will come to you
When the time will be gone
You will be by my side

Cherry blossom girl

Tell me why can't it be true
Tell me why can't it be true

Cherry blossom girl
Cherry blossom girl

I'll never love again
Can I say that to you
Will you run away
If I try to be true

Cherry blossom girl

Cherry blossom girl
I'll always be there for you
That means no time to waste
Whenever there's a chance
Cherry blossom girl

Tell me why can't it be true
Tell me why can't it be true

Loved Air, still do.
I remember finally getting to see them in concert with my then girlfriend. The lights dimmed, they came on stage and started their first number when my GF decided to pass out. Thankfully I had some help to carry her from the front of the crowd towards the back of the venue, where she finally came to.
That was a relief! We watched the rest of the gig from there.

Horrible.

Just horrible.

Strong Badians are nothing like the French. And Strong Bad is way cooler than Spider Man.  I mean, pfff, who's a scared of a spider, man?

This one is OK (not crazy about the flute), but I appreciate RP introducing me to Air; it's opened up a whole new genre of music for me that I've come to really enjoy.  The duo's Mer du Japon (and the remixes) are my current favorites.
Posted 15 years ago by plaice3    [ Reply ]
I like their newer stuff better.  And BillG wore this one out when it first came out.

I can understand this leaving you cold, as Air are a bit of an acquired retro taste, but "sounds like Wham" {#Stupid}? This is a rather long way from George Michael's voice and instrumental style.

Thank you, thank you, Bill & Co., for lacing your playlist so heavily with female vocalists and surreal instrumentations. It gets me down that there is so little on the broadcast 'spectrum' that isn't crashing guitars and guys bellowing their lyrics like wounded bears. I mean, there are times when crashing guitars and the angst of young males sound fine, but that seems to be all that Clear Channel knows.

As much as I love this tune and all of Talkie Walkie as well as Moon Safari, I simply can't play the CDs through. Feel like I'm gonna OD on cotton candy. This one, BTW, seems a distant relation to Silkie's "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" or the Mojo Men's "Sit Down I Think I Love You".
