Synthpop 's Alive (Original)

Описание: "Synthpop's Alive! Can't you hear it?!"

Disclaimer: This video response is in no way intended as a personal attack against the maker of the original "Synthpop is Dead" video. On the contrary, I found that video very amusing -- even if I disagree with its central message. As for whose case my own effort ends up supporting, well... I'll let you be the judge of that!

Synthpop's Alive

Everyone's entitled to opinion
You have yours and well, I have mine
And though it seems that our opinions differ
You'll agree in time
Well, I don't know what's written in the papers
I never listen to the radio
Haven't been out dancing now for ages
In case you didn't know
I've been staying at home
Dancing alone
Living in a dream since 1983
Dear me!
Well, I don't care what people think about me
Though you know sometimes the truth can hurt
But I will stand my ground 'till I'm pushing daisies
Up through the dirt
I've been staying at home
Dancing alone
Living in a dream since 1983
That's me!
(Phone rings)
"Hey, it's me. Listen, I hate to tell you but...
Synthpop is dead."
What? What are you talking about? No way! Never!
Synthpop's alive!
Can't you hear it?
Synthpop's alive!
Can't you hear it?
Well, if you can't, it doesn't matter to me
The beat goes on, that's plain enough to see
Synthpop's alive... for me.
