What Song Are You Listening To Right Now?

Recommended Posts

Rush - Virtuality

Despite the reference to modems (what are those?), the lyrics are still very relevant...

Like a shipwrecked mariner

Adrift on an unknown sea

Clinging to the wreckage

Of the lost ship Fantasy

I'm a castaway stranded

In a desolate land

I can see the footprints

In the virtual sand

Net boy, net girl

Send your signal 'round the world

Let your fingers walk and talk

And set you free

Net boy, net girl

Send your impulse 'round the world

Put your message in a modem

And throw it in the cyber sea

Astronauts in the weightlessness

Of pixellated space

Exchange graffiti with

A disembodied race

I can save a universe

In a grain of sand

I can hold the future

In my virtual hand

Let's dance tonight to a virtual song

Press this key and you can play along

Let's fly tonight on our virtual wings

Press this key to see amazing things

Like a pair of vagabonds

Who wave between two passing trains

Or the glimpse of a woman's smile

Through a window in the rain

I can smell her perfume

I can taste her lips

I can feel the voltage

From her fingertips

Net boy, net girl

Send your heartbeat 'round the world

Let your fingers walk and talk

And set you free

Relevant to what? :D

Terrible terrible lyrics.
