Motion Sickness is a song I have heard pretty frequently at my job. It is played several times a day at my retail job. Most of the songs played are hardly an upgrade from elevator music as far as I am concerned but one of the songs I actually liked, liked not loved.
It actually has lyrics. Songs stopped having lyrics in the 90s. Now they have one word, phrase, or sometimes a whole sentence that is repeated over and over again, usually to music created by some sort of computer program. I am not anti-technology. I love it, but I am anti-anti-creativity and anti-anti-imagination.
Anyway, I had to look up the song and the lyrics since I had no idea what it was. I think the band was called Hot Chips or Hit Chips or something like that. Please don't sue me. I have no money. Anyway, the lyrics were a disappointment, as I appreciated the lyrics that I thought I heard better.
The version I heard really "struck a chord" with me. LOL Anyway, they reminded me of my late brother and me growing up, especially in the second verse, so without further ado, here are the lyrics to the second verse as I believed they were meant to be:
'Remember when we both found out the world is hell, the world is hell?
'Remember when we both found out the world is hell, the world is hell?
Everything lost, everything lost of my dreams.
Everything lost, everything lost of my dreams.
I am only reaching out for you,
I am only reaching out to you.'
