NOWADAYS THE GREEN LOBBY WOULD OBJECT

And if you listen now
You might hear
A new sound coming in
As an old one disappears
See the world in just one grain of sand
You better take a closer look
Don't let it slip right through your hand
Won't you please hear the call
The world says


Put the message in the box
Put the box into the car
Drive the car around the world
Until you get heard

Now is the moment
Please understand
The road is wide open
To the heart of every man
A few simple words
So a mule could understand
He don't want tomorrow
If it's just crumbling into sand
Won't please hear the call
She says


Put the message in the box
Put the box into the car
Drive the car around the world
Until you get heard


Until you get heard


The World says
Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
Cos I'm waiting right here with my open arms
She says give a little bit
Give a little bit of your soul to me
Cos I'm waiting to behold your many charms
Is that love in the air
She says


Put the message in the box
Put the box into the car
Drive the car around the world
Until you get heard


Until you get heard
Until you get heard
Until you get heard
Until you get heard


Nice sentiments Karl, but think of the carbon footprint....surely there's a better way to get heard than clocking up the miles......

A cracking bit of pop music from 1990.  All lovely and warm and perfect for a summer's day....not that we've had too many of them in Glasgow in 2011.  So far.....(he says more in hope than expectation).

Oh and surely I'm not alone in thinking You're All Invited To A Party is one of the the best rip-offs of the Rolling Stones circa 1964 there's ever been....(and yes, I know they were ripping off blues musicians by then).
