World Spins Madly On - The Weepies

I thought of you and where you'd gone
And the world spins madly on.

Louis Prima - Just a Gigolo / I Ain't Got Nobody

There will come a day when youth will pass away

What will they say about me?

When the end comes, I know

They was just the gigolos

Life goes on without me

A friend of mine had posted this tonight and so it appeared on my news feed. Ever since we first met, I had always enjoyed the music he'd put on or share on social media. This one wasn't any different. 

This is one of those songs typical of that decade and genre that's a bit ironic; in the sense that the music is so fun and happy but the lyrics itself is a bit sad and depressing. These songs always have me polarized. I love listening to it (evident from the smile on my face and my snapping fingers), but the fact that it's a sad song disguising inside a happy tune makes it all the more depressing. 

When did I get so sensitive?

Chez les yé-yé - Serge Gainsbourg

Non rien n'aura raison de moi
J'irai t'chercher ma Lolita
