Song Of the Day: May 18, 2005
The Lackloves-Starspangledsatellites
From International Pop Overthrow Vol. 5,
Not Lame Records, 2002
When little Mickey hears this, his fuzzy heart starts beating so fast I worry that he'll explode. "He means it so much!" he says, on the brink of tears. The "he" in question is Mike Jarvis, the amazing voice of the Lackloves, and prior to that of the Blow Pops. This is one of THEE examples of what happens when SOUL meets power pop. "UNTIL THE END OF TIME!" My God, the infinite sadness...is there something NOT to get about that?!? An absolute classic, our single favorite song of 2002, and one to play over and over, because you will NEVER forget that moment when you discover that your love, while it is so strong that you can physically feel it dissolving your internal organs, is not powerful enough to overcome mere circumstance.
This is an alternate version from the one on the Starcitybaby CD. Mr. Rainbow Quartz decided he liked the basement demo better, but we prefer the "finished" version. Either one is deadly.
