My America
April 27, 2009I just love this song. It’s also one of the few songs where Nina really lets her voice lash out - and send shivers down your spine. Normally, she’s all bedroomy and sleepy sexy (she’s SO beautiful), but this is one of those songs recorded after drinking 5 cups of coffee. Refreshing.
If you’re one of those few cocky and arrogant chocking-the-eagle Americans, there’s a lesson in here.
Darling, darling
The moon went out tonight
And I’m caught like a doe in your headlights
Oh yeah, alright
I’m yours to knock around
I’m a little too starstruck to wanna fightOo-e-oo-ee, it’s a cold-hearted world
Oo-e-oo-ee-oo, I’m gonna be your girl
It’s a little too late to cry
You’re my AmericaNot quite snow white
It came down all night
And put a filter of ash on the sunrise
Oh yeah, alright
Move a little bit closer
Lay your big dirty hands on my innocenceOo-e-oo-ee, it’s a cold-hearted world
Oo-e-oo-ee-oo, I’m gonna be your girl
It’s just a little too late to cry
You’re my AmericaOoh, heaven laughs at us now, baby
But we’ll be shooting it down, honey
It’s a little too late to hope and pray for a miracle
You’re my AmericaHey Rock star!
You’re my America


Local (Quebec) girl-band I guess you might enjoy.
