Lyrics:
This European air
It always warms my face
I wish I could buy some
I will bring you stories
And bleary eyed photos
Like a regular tourist
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing ever will
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing
Suitcases down our street
Are rolling once again
I roll away with them
Five days inside Zoo York
To loose myself with friends
I'm nowhere without you
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing ever will
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing ever will
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing
Just want to be with you my baby
Just want to be with you my baby
Just want to be with you my baby
Just want to be with you my baby
I'm counting up the cost of time
And we'll embrace our time away
We cannot save ourselves alone
Or rely on a mobile phone
Hailing from South London, Athlete is an English indie rock band consisting of Joel Pott (lead vocals and guitar), Carey Willetts (bass and backing vocals), Stephen Roberts (drums and backing vocals), and Tim Wanstall (keyboards). The band achieved chart success with the singles "You Got The Style" and "Beautiful" from their debut album "Vehicles & Animals" which achieved platinum status and was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize in 2003.

Amazing song, but crap band. I can never understand how so many bands can make classic songs like this, full of a serious haunting melody, so strong and powerful, and then go on to record wishy washy background music thereafter. Why couldn't they just continue in this vein and be one of my fav non-metal bands? A mystery to me. Edwyn Collins did the same thing with Never met a girl etc.
@tasomanda 10 жыл бұрын
Athlete is a good group, hear: -Yesterday threw everything at me -Rubik's cube -Don't hold your breath -With you I never lose -The getaway Just hear that 5 songs, maybe you can change your opinion, if you still think Athlete is a "crappy" band after that, well, at least I tried ;)

@keithgordon620 10 жыл бұрын
Julio Valle They were O.K Julio. I can see why you like them, the lyrics are pretty deep and meaningful, but just too subtle for my taste. I did play one called 'Love come rescue' though which was better (can't remember it now, but wrote the title down). I will tell you what, play 'The Last Dance' by Ken Hensley off the 'Blood on the Tracks' album (Spotify) and then you will see what i call a classic song, and tell me what you think, and if you can see the difference in our tastes. You will also be able to see why i picked out 'Tourist' as being unique within Athlete's repertoire.
@tasomanda 10 жыл бұрын
Keith Gordon Yeah, now I can understand why you liked tourist, and now I know your kind of taste. (Good songs)
@bulliztik 16 жыл бұрын
sorry, but they are very average and droning. they are 1 hit wonders with wires, and that is when i liked them. then they released the album (which could have been a single, as i could barely tell when one song ended and the next 1 began). this pop shit is getting boring, thats why i now listen to metal
