Song of the Day: Wolf Parade - Yulia

Check out this video. Why don't they play stuff like this on the radio? Oh, who cares, I don't even listen to the radio anymore.

Wolf Parade - Yulia

I found this song on this list of the year's best love songs (posted on Valentine's Day, naturally). From Nerve:
"The Year in Love Songs"

There was one song on that list that stood out head and shoulders above the rest. And that is the song that I posted above.


Diamonds in the face of night time
Watch them as they float along
I was up there floating with them
And you know that I am gone
The radio sings a patriot’s song, it’s the devil that you know
Yulia

We were standing on the platform
The favorite sons of history
While you’re back in Prostronaya
Writing in your diary
They flip on switch at mission control and I’m never coming home
Yulia

Oh! I woke up from a fever dream
Oh! Of floating in the salty sea
I’m stranded up here floating along
and my heart beats slow and I hope they
Bring my body back
Yulia

So when they turn the cameras on you
Baby please don’t speak of me
Point up to the dark above you
As they edit me from history
I’m 20 million miles from a comfortable home
And space is very cold
Yulia

There’s nothing out here nothing out here nothing out
nothing out here nothing out here there’s nothing out here
nothing nothing out here nothing out here nothing nothing out
