The Eponymous Album [Editorial]

Vinylgewordene Anmaßung, als „Debüt“ gleich mit einer Doppel-LP auf den Markt zu kommen; von „Liberty / United Artists“ beauftragt und selbstbewusst selbstproduziert. Das Ergebnis: ein Klang, wie ihn sich die Band vorstellte und erträumte, aus den Eklektizismen und Ingredienzen, die Rock zum Lebensmittel machten.

It Is You (You Belong To Me)

Gonna hold you tight Yeah I’m gonna feel right
Feelin‘ right
Holdin‘ tight
Through the night That’s where it’s at

When you’re feeling small All you gotta do is call
Feelin‘ small
Gotta call
Through the wall That’s where it’s at

Don’t be late
I’m not goin‘ to wait on our second date
Honey don’t be late
Honey I can’t wait
Don’t be late
I’m not goin‘ to wait standin‘ at your gate
Honey don’t be late
Honey I can’t wait

Babe I’ve got a knife So you better be my wife
Got a knife
Be my wife
All my life You belong to me

Honey it is you Don’t you know I shall be true
Feelin‘ blue
Bein‘ true
It is you You belong to me

Don’t be late ...

Gonna hold you tight ...
