One EskimO - Astronauts

Artist: One EskimO
Track: Astronauts
Album: One EskimO - EP
Year: 2009
Here's another one of those floaty tracks that I just love so much. One EskimO is an English band with a wonderful, refreshing sound. Their debut single "Kandi" has been getting a lot of attention, so I decided I should give a little love to my other favorite track of theirs, "Astronauts." The lead vocals are smooth and dreamy. Combine those with soft guitar chords, simple piano notes, and ambient electronics, and I'll pleasantly slipping into dreamland.  Another cool thing about this band is the fact that they created their own animated series for their music videos. Seriously. Go watch them. They're kind of adorable. Click here for lyrics, music video & lyrics! LYRICS:

You float like a baby

Trying to escape this covered in tar

But every recording

You keep distorting like an astronaut

It's funny old world 

Full of headaches in turn

So whenever you need space

I guess it's okay

When you're floating away

To feel nothing at all

We can be astronauts

If you want to get out of here

You float like a baby

Looking for safety somewhere on Mars

But if I'm mistaken

Your body's in England but your head's in the stars

It's funny old world 

Full of headaches in turn

So whenever you need space

I guess it's okay

When you're floating away

To feel nothing at all

We can be astronauts

If you want to get out of here

We can get out of here

We can get out of here

We can be astronauts

We can be astronauts

It's funny old world full of headaches in turn

So whenever you need space

I guess it's okay

When you're floating away

To feel nothing at all

We can be astronauts

If you want to get out of here

We can get out of here

We can get out of here

We can be astronauts

We can be astronauts
