New favorite song: The Sun Ain’t Shining No More by The Asteroids Galaxy Tour. This caught my ears from the moment I heard it. They had another song called Around the Bend that was used on an iPod commercial, but I like this one a lot more. It definitely hovers that border of catchy and cool versus annoying. It’s a song that could definitely end up being overplayed…but that won’t stop me from enjoying it now. The Asteroids Galaxy Tour are from Copenhagen and just formed within the last year or so. They’re re-working their website at the moment, but you can check it out here (takes you to their Myspace page for now). Enjoy!

The Sun Ain’t Shining No More Lyrics by The Asteroids Galaxy Tour
**Did the best I could…please add any lyrical insight via the comments
Well, I got my mind out of sight
lost the common sense,
got a rave in my brain
like i’m without defense.
Till I catch my eyes right in front of me,
It’s a bloke of a man finally taking me.
Hey cute from the left, oh yeah
Why’d his move he had me shake out a lie
He really had it going…
The crowd’s getting thinner
we are getting closer,
with a hole in my head
he took me to his sofa…
Well now the sun ain’t shining no more,
I don’t know why but I’ve seen it before.
Ain’t got no joy no man to lean on,
He leaves my soul on the floor like a doll.
He was young, he was hot,
he made me feel alive.
so in love I was falling,
ooh, it’s early morning.
He took me in his hands
and squeezed me real tight.
I was humbled and so joyful
depending on this guy;
he didn’t last very long
a week or maybe two.
when he called me on the phone
saying baby I don’t love you.
Just another one-way love
always giving never getting.
And now I feel so stupid
it’s like a deja vu ooooooo
Because the sun ain’t shining no more,
I don’t know why but I’ve seen it before.
Ain’t got no joy no man to lean on,
He leaves my soul on the floor like a doll.
Oh no the sun ain’t shining no more,
I don’t know why but I’ve seen it before.
Ain’t got no joy no man to lean on,
He leaves my soul on the floor like a doll.
Yeah, yeaaahhhh…
For a while I’m shining
but later I’m crying.
Instead of getting stronger,
I’m always getting weaker.
For a while I’m shining
but later I’m crying.
Instead of getting stronger,
I’m always getting weaker
Yeah now the sun ain’t shining no more,
I don’t know why but I’ve seen it before.
Ain’t got no joy no man to lean on,
He leaves my soul on the floor like a doll.
