Monica Sex - The Dress from Madrid



I gave a warning that I'll start posting melancholic songs... I really like this song and it goes perfectly with today's autumn feel. Monica Sex, probably one of the best Israeli bands ever, is making a comeback. Their sound is more mature, but then again so are they and so are their fans. The chorus is catchy but not too annoying and this song just makes me want to start wearing sweaters and eat soup and it does poke my heart a bit. Welcome back Monica!

The head is from Jaffa the dress is from Madrid
She talks, he doesn’t listen
Pain trapped inside beautiful eyes.
Take a chance, what can possibly happen?

Youth is a crazy commander
Running till out of breathe
Life flies by at a crazy speed
What do you think about the dress from Madrid?

A long long time that the ice doesn’t melt here
Doesn’t melt here
A long long time

The head is from Jaffa the dress is from Madrid
She talks, he doesn’t listen
Holding hands on the big avenue
Each one in their own bubble.

Youth is a crazy commander
Running till out of breathe
Life flies by at a crazy speed
What do you think about the dress from Madrid?

A long long time that the ice doesn’t melt here
Doesn’t melt here
A long long time

Elai Botner & Kfir Ben Lish - Days of Summer



Summer may be officially over but after last week's heatwave, it's clear that it's not ready to say goodbye. So even though it's steaming people are trying not to complain because we all know that soon summer will really be gone and make way for chilly days and cold nights. So this is one last light summer song before I start to get melancholic and moody. Somehow I don't think the weather will let me but we'll see about that. Anyway, I really like this song and the video and I guess we all should remember to enjoy summery days before we're old which will always seem to me like a very grey time.

And when everything ended I knew you’d come back
At the end of every war there’s a little illusion
And when the heart broke I knew you’d come
Even tonight to gather up my pain.

And when everything ended
I knew we’d go back to being
Like we were once good friends
And sometimes I’m strong and sometimes I’m not
Are you afraid my love?

I’ll leave long days of summer on the window
And the years that will pass and won’t leave memory
And it’s only me and you
Only me and you today.

And when everything ended
I dreamed a thousand dreams
About everything I accomplished and everything I didn’t
And if I deserve
And if I can be
The one who’ll put you to sleep today.

And years will pass and seasons will change
And we too will grow old you’ll see
By the face and by the white hairs
Inside all of these hide the years.
