The Three O'Clock - Jet Fighter (power pop anni 80 - video e testo)

Musica Power Pop

Dall'album Sixteen Tambourines del 1983 i californiani The Three O'Clock che diedero una spinta al movimento neopsichedelico del Paisley Underground con le loro sonorità Power Pop. Sicuramente la band è stata influenzata molto anche dalle liriche e le canzoni dei The Jam in primis, ma anche Secret Affair e Lambrettas. A testimoniare questo affetto con le band del Mod Revival a fine video c'è una bella scarrozzata in scooter, ma è evidente che non siamo nell'Inghilterra di Quadrophenia, ma nel caldo della California.

With nothing to show

And on the day when duty calls

I don't think I will go

Airplanes, flying yet I feel so low

'Cause I'm a

Jet fighter man in the daytime

Jet fighter man in the daytime

Jet fighter man in the nightime

Jet fighter man and the Reds they go aaahhh...
