I’ve got a new song I don’t know if you’ll like and I see colours, colours in your eyes Tell me stories, tell me tales, tell me what you’ve done Tell me something not so sad that I can understand I’m not so worried, let me paint a smile a ray of sunshine is gonna be alright Tell me stories, tell me tales, tell me what you’ve done Tell me something not so sad that I can understand I’ll lead you to a land... where you can see the sun IF THERE’S A PLACE, IF THERE’S A PLACE WHERE WE CAN HAVE SOME FUN IF THERE’S A WAY, IF THERE’S A WAY WE CAN FOLLOW THE SUN Give me a present, I will keep it in my heart give me the sunshine, I just try so hard Tell me stories, tell me tales, tell me what you’ve done Tell me something not so sad that I can understand I’ll lead you to a land... where you can see the sun

Days of sun, days of joy no more lonely boring nights summer’s here, winter’s gone and now I’m driving back home Waiting for some holidays not so far away from here wish I could lie in the sun with a pint of beer in my hand I DON’T CARE WHAT THEY THINK WE WASTE OUR TIME IN THE SEA WONDER HOW WE NEVER WIN BUT WE KEEP SINGING OUT OF TUNE (WE KEEP SINGING OUT OF TUNE) Ignore the news on TV read a music magazine walk along the endless road and I get something to eat Days of sun, days of joy no more lonely boring nights summer’s here, winter’s gone and now I’m driving back home and now I’m driving back home and now I’m driving back home

Hace tiempo que no sé nada de ti me olvidaste, yo a ti no, ¿por qué no me vienes a ver? En el fondo sé que algo existió tú lo sabes, yo también, es bonito volverte a ver LA MAGIA DE AQUELLAS NOCHES LAS MIRADAS ENTRE LOS DOS LO NUESTRO FUE IMPOSIBLE PERO ALGO EXTRAÑO QUEDÓ Cada uno siguió su camino y no fue difícil recordar toda aquella emoción LA MAGIA DE AQUELLAS NOCHES LAS MIRADAS ENTRE LOS DOS LO NUESTRO FUE IMPOSIBLE PERO ALGO EXTRAÑO QUEDÓ LA MAGIA DE AQUELLAS NOCHES LAS MIRADAS ENTRE LOS DOS LO NUESTRO FUE IMPOSIBLE PERO ALGO EXTRAÑO QUEDÓ LO NUESTRO FUE IMPOSIBLE PERO ALGO EXTRAÑO QUEDÓ

Drive 04:09
Who's gonna tell you when it's too late Who's gonna tell you things aren't so great YOU CAN’T GO ON, THINKING NOTHING IS WRONG WHO’S GONNA DRIVE YOU HOME TONIGHT? Who's gonna pick you up when you fall Who's gonna hang it up when you call Who's gonna pay attention to your dreams and who's gonna plug your ears when you scream YOU CAN’T GO ON, THINKING NOTHING IS WRONG WHO’S GONNA DRIVE YOU HOME TONIGHT? Who's gonna hold you down when you shake Who's gonna come around when you break YOU CAN’T GO ON, THINKING NOTHING IS WRONG WHO’S GONNA DRIVE YOU HOME TONIGHT? YOU CAN’T GO ON, THINKING NOTHING IS WRONG WHO’S GONNA DRIVE YOU HOME TONIGHT?

about

[ESPAÑOL]

THE YELLOW MELODIES nos presentan la segunda parte de su trilogía ‘Sunshine Pop’, una colección de cinco canciones brillantes y luminosas, cuatro propias y una versión del “Drive” de THE CARS, y que suponen la continuación de aquel “Sunshine Pop Ep1’ que publicaron a comienzos de la primavera, si bien, también salió en verano otro EP 7”, ‘We all deserve a chance’, en el sello griego Old Bad Habits.

Para la grabación de este nuevo disco, THE YELLOW MELODIES (Rafa Skam a la voz y guitarra, Antonio Clares al bajo y coros, Carlos Abrisqueta a los teclados y guitarras, y José Ángel Hernández a la batería) se fueron de nuevo al estudio PM de Pepe Moreno este verano, donde grabaron las canciones del EP2 y también del EP3 que verá la luz a comienzos de 2021. Después saldrá un álbum en vinilo y en CD, ‘Sunshine Pop’, recopilando las canciones de los 3 EPs.

‘Sunshine Pop Ep2’ contiene luminosos himnos de pop de guitarras, que definen a la perfección el espíritu sunshine de armonías vocales, rickenbackers de doce cuerdas, coloridos sintes y elegantes arreglos de percusión, metales,... Incluyen un tema en castellano, “La magia de aquellas noches’, demostrando una vez más que no se les da nada mal cantar en español.

Norma Hamilton ha vuelto a colaborar a los coros, todo un añadido de lujo para estas bellas composiciones plagadas de luz, amor y juventud que nos recargan de energía positiva.

[ENGLISH]

THE YELLOW MELODIES bring us the second part of their ‘Sunshine Pop’ trilogy, a smart collection of five brilliant songs, four own ones and a cover of THE CARS’ “Drive”. They put out the first part of the trilogy, ‘Sunshine Pop Ep1’, at the beginning of the spring, and in the summer we could enjoy another EP, a gorgeous 7” vinyl, ‘We all deserve a chance’, on the Greek Old Bad Habits label.

THE YELLOW MELODIES (Rafa Skam on vocals and guitar, Antonio Clares on bass and backing vocals, Carlos Abrisqueta on keyboards and guitars, and José Ángel Hernández on drums) went again into Pepe Moreno’s PM Studio last summer, and they recorded there all the songs for EP2 and also for EP3, which will come out at the beginning of 2021. Then, an album featuring the songs from the 3 EPs will be released.

‘Sunshine Pop Ep2’ features five guitar pop hymns, which perfectly define sunshine spirit of vocal harmonies, 12-string rickenbackers, colourful synths and charming percussion and brass arrangements,... They include a beautiful song in Spanish, “La magia de aquellas noches’.

Norma Hamilton has added powerful backing vocals in these shiny songs full of sunlight, love and youth that will recharge you with positive energies.
