The Magnetic Fields

The Magnetic Fields

The Magnetic Fields es una banda estadounidense de la ciudad de Nueva York encabezada por el compositor y cantante Stephin Merritt. Los álbumes lanzados por Merritt bajo el nombre de The Magnetic Fields se les puede definir como un Synth Pop con reminiscencias ochentenas y bonitas letras, comúnmente sobre amor, a veces irónicas, a veces tristes, otras más festivas. Mientras que en los álbumes The Wayward Bus y Distant Plastic Trees predomina la voz de Susan Anway, en el resto de los álbumes los temas son cantados principalmente por el propio Merritt. La banda comienza como un proyecto de estudio Merritt, con Merritt tocando todos los instrumentos. Con la ayuda de su amiga Claudia Gonson, quien participo junto con Merritt en la banda The Zinnias durante la escuela, juntaron la banda en Boston que era donde Merritt y Gonson vivían para tocar las composiciones de Merritt. La primera presentación en vivo fue en el "TT the Bear?s Place" en Boston en 1991, donde tocaron para una escasa audiencia que esperaba ver a Galaxie 500. La presentación no sonó como en las grabaciones, que tenían un sonido más representativo de lo que la banda era, pero con el tiempo ambos sonidos han llegado a converger.

Letra de I Thought You Were My Boyfriend (single edit)
You told me you loved me
I know where and when
Come sunrise, surprise surprise
The joke's on me again

I know you don't love me
You know I don't care
Keep it hidden better
Did I say the world was fair?

I thought I was just the guy
For you and it would never end
I thought we were supposed to be
Like glue

I thought you were my boyfriend
I thought you were my boyfriend

Love or not I've always got
Ten guys on whom I can depend
And if you're not mine
One less is nine; get wise

I thought you were my boyfriend
I thought you were my boyfriend

I just hope you're happy
Stringing me along
While you're stringing
I'm here singing
This, my saddest song

I wish I could see you
I wish I could sleep
Should I freak out? Should I seek out
Someone I could keep?

I thought I was just the guy
For you and it would never end
I thought we were supposed to be
Like glue

I thought you were my boyfriend
I thought you were my boyfriend

Love or not I've always got
Ten guys on whom I can depend
And if you're not mine
One less is nine; get wise

I thought you were my boyfriend
I thought you were my boyfriend

I wanted you tonight
I walked around alot
Wishing you were here
To keep me from sleeping

With anyone who might
Want me, or even not
Some guys have a beer
And they'll do anything
Anything
Anything...

I thought I was just the guy
For you and it would never end (Thought you were my boyfriend...)
I thought we were supposed to be
Like glue

I thought you were my boyfriend (Thought you were my boyfriend...)
I thought you were my boyfriend

Love or not I've always got
Ten guys on whom I can depend (Thought you were my boyfriend...)
And if you're not mine
One less is nine; get wise

I thought you were my boyfriend (Thought you were my boyfriend...)
I thought you were my boyfriend...

I thought I was just the guy
For you and it would never end (Thought you were my boyfriend...)
I thought we were supposed to be
Like glue
