all i see is what's in front of me...

don't hold on
go get strong
well don't you know
there is no modern romance

Time, time is gone
it stops stops who it wants
well i was wrong
it never lasts
there is no
this is no modern romance

in time, time is gone
never lasts, stops who he was
well i was wrong
never lasts

this is no
there is no modern romance
there is no modern romance
this is no modern romance
there is no there is no

baby I'm afraid of a lot of things
but
I aint scared of lovin you
baby I know your afraid of a lot of things
but
dont be scared of love

cause
people will say all kinds of things
that dont mean a damn to me
cause all I see
is whats in front of me
and thats you

well, I've been dragged all over the place
i've taken hits time just don't erase
and baby i can see you've been fucked with too
but that dont mean your lovin days are through

cause people will say all kinds of things
that don't mean a damn to me
cause all I see
is whats in front of me
and thats you

well I maybe just be a fool
but I know you're just as cool
and cool kids
they belong together

cool kids...they belong together..

...since i left Sheffield and my beloved Fuzz Club, which nurtured my love of indie music, i've longed for a replacement...somewhere that i can pretend i'm some cool front woman whilst shouting the lyrics of every song in the faces of my friends. After many a disappointed night i've decided to start my own night....and here it is...

Two kids born on the sticky floors of Sheffield indie clubs are reviving their lost anthems in East London. Amongst the abundance of disco and dubstep we shall revel in the bellowed choruses of such bands as Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Futureheads and The Smiths – taking us back to the early 2000s when our only worries were broken Converse and affording the cab fare home.

Modern Romance: your Auntie's 7" collection,your favourite old college mixtape, and the noise from your kid brother's bedroom. Frock up and dance to forgotten favourites,hidden treasures and future playlists. An indie-disco for you to fall in love with.

...making our first appearance at The Old Blue Last this Sunday and again at The Ink Rooms on Easter Friday....i better go, i have some work to do!

Modern Romance - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

...love, don't cry...

...and they don't. i adore the Yeah Yeah Yeahs...still, after all these years...my favourite band. so it's a happy day because the video for Skeletons has been released....by far the most beautiful song from It's Blitz...but don't worry Maps, it always has and always will be you.
