M83 On Fallon With "Midnight City"
M83 has one of my favorite albums of the year, Hurry Up We're Dreaming. Actually it's a double album. My iPod asks me for a little diversity and I'm reluctant, because I love this album and I love it loud. I think you will too.
If you aren't convinced, please watch them play Fallon with their great song "Midnight City." Turn up the volume. The lyrics are below the video if you want to follow along. Lyric of note, "The city is my church." What does this song teach us about the culture?
"Midnight City" Lyrics
Waiting in the car
Waiting for a ride
At night the city grows
Look at the horizon glowWaiting in the car
Waiting for a ride in the dark
Drinking in the lights
Following the neon signsWaiting for a word
Looking at the milky skyline
The city is my church
It wraps me in its blinding twilightWaiting in the car
Waiting for a ride in the dark
