Klee - Gold


Ok guys, up next for the international week we have Klee from Cologne (Köln), Germany, named after the famous Swiss / German painter Paul Klee. The band generally dishes out Pop / Power Pop songs and the one I’m recommending will fall into the Power Pop category.
The song is Gold, I love the initial riff and the beat of the song, the vocals are also a treat, an English version of this song is also available but I don’t know why it does not have the same affect on me, maybe it’s the exotic feel the song gets from the German language or maybe it's because I feel that the lyrics also lose some of their beauty in the translation, I don’t know, the video of this song is also very very cool, I love it, in fact I rank this video in one of my top 10 favorite videos of all time, what do you think, here it is

If you like this song you can get it from the link below
Gold - Gold
For the curious hearted here are the lyrics of the song translated in English, I just used the Google translate, so I don’t know how accurate they are
We are aflame in the dark of night,
We remained long unrecognized
And then we go out into the world,
Into the light,
First alone, then hand in hand, step by step
And there `s no turning back at any moment,
We are part of a whole that is greater than you and I, you and me.
We will be like gold,
We were like gold,
We were like gold,
We were like gold,
More than meets the eye.
By the splendor that surrounds us, we will always back
To the hidden fortune
Not alone, hand in hand, step by step Come on, Come on Come with me
We will be like gold
And there `s no turning back at any moment
We are part of a whole that is greater than you and I, you and me.
We will be like gold;
We were like gold,
We were like gold,
We were like gold,
More than meets the eye.
We will be like gold;
We were like gold,
And there's no turning back at any moment,
We are part of a whole that is greater than you and I,
You and me.
You and me.
We were like gold,
We were like gold.
