    M83, if you haven't already heard of them, are a French band that make a combination of shoegazing (think My Bloody Valentine) and Electronic '80s style new wave music. Just picked up their name album entitled Saturdays = Youth and wanted to share this track with you.


    I really like the video for this one.

    Lyrics:
    Death is her boyfriend
    She spits on summers and smiles to the night
    She collects crowns made of black roses
    But her heart is made of bubble gum

    Graveyard girl

    Dark rags and red stars
    She's the dirty witch of her high school
    She worships Satan like a father
    But dreams of a sister like Molly Ringwald

    Graveyard girl

    "I'm gonna jump the walls and run
    I wonder if they'll miss me?
    I won't miss them.
    The cemetery is my home
    I want to be a part of it,
    Invisible even to the night.
    Then I'll read poetry to the stones
    Maybe one day I could be one of them...
    Wise and silent.
    Waiting for someone to love me.
    Waiting for someone to kiss me.
    I'm fifteen years old
    And I feel it's already too late to live.
    Don't you?"

    I can't help my love
    For Graveyard Girl.

    The video is quite original, and I like the song, definitely has a lot of throwback charm to the 80s. Nice

    This vid is oddly amusing and the girl is cute.  Shoegazing and new wave - 2 of my fave musical styles.  Thanks for sharing.  Do you like the band Slowdive?

    haven't heard of them;
    but the lyrics sounds kinda dark
