Gang of Four

Gang of Four

Gang of Four es una banda formada en Leeds, Inglaterra, en 1977. Estuvieron activos hasta 1986 y reunidos a principios de los 90?s y luego en 2004 con la alineación original. Su estilo se destaca por una aún actual mezcla de punk, funk y dance, un género conocido como post-punk o dance-punk y que compartían con Joy Division, The Raincoats, Devo, New Order (sí, despues de Ian), entre otras. Su disco más reconocido fue ?Entertaiment?, donde la mezcla mas clara de funk y punk se hace notar (Se nota influencia en los primeros años de los Red Hot Chili Peppers como referencia), sus siguientes discos reflejan mas la mezcla del punk/funk y lo electrónico. Destaca el contenido social de sus letras, con influencia de pensamiento socialista y de denuncia contra las injuticias del capitalismo, al grado que en este sentido se les clasifica como representantes de un neo-marxismo punk. Sus actuales hijos se entornan en el post-punk revival, siendo The Rapture, !!!, Clinic, Art Brut, Death From Above, Klaxons, Pretty Girls Make Graves. Discografía: Entertaiment! (1979), Solid Gold (1981), Another Day Another Dollar Ep (1982), Live At The Palace (1984), Hard (1984), Peel Sessions Ep (1986), Shrinkwrapped (1995)

Letra de We Live As We Dream, Alone
Everybody is in too many pieces
No-man's-land surrounds our desires
To crack the shell we mix with others
Some lie in the arms of lovers

The city is the place to be
With no money you go crazy
I need an occupation!
You have to pay for satisfaction

We live as we dream, alone
To crack the shell we mix with the others
Some flirt with fascism
Some lie in the arms of lovers

We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone

We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone

Everybody is in too many pieces
No-man's-land surrounds me!
With no money we'll all go crazy
(we apologize)

Man and woman need to work
It helps us define ourselves
We were not born in isolation
But sometimes it seems that way

We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone

We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone

We live as we dream, alone
The space between our work and its product
Some fall into fatalism
As if it started this way

We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone

We live as we dream, alone
(We live as we dream, alone)
We live as we dream, alone
(We were not born in isolation)
We live as we dream, alone
(But sometimes it seems that way)

(The space between our work and its product)

We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone
(As if it always must be this way)
We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone
We live as we dream, alone
(With no money we'll all go crazy)
