Friends for Dinner - Dream Again

i was listening to Franz Ferdinand's beautiful song "Dream Again", and remembered this silly episode where i was first introduced to this band. 

Backtrack to many years back - It was this work trip we made to Beijing, and a colleague of mine was sweeping down bags of pirated CDs from this auntie by the roadside and when we got into the taxi, I asked her what she bought, she rattled off a whole list of stuff she bought, all of which i have heard of, then she came to this one that she said "Franz Ferdinand" and I was a little shocked, repeating, "What? Friends for Dinner?" And perhaps it was the traffic noise in Beijing, she answered (without a blink), "Yah, Franz Ferdinand." I thought, what a terrible name for a band! - Friends for Dinner?! i love my friends.

Silly me, of course, subsequently i realised the real name for the band ;) ok cool stuff and here is one track i liked "Dream Again"

and here is the lyrics of Dream Again

Don´t be afraid if
you hear voices
Or feel the sweet air
Spoken upon you
Sometimes the sound
Of a thousand
Whispering words
Of Hope will reassure
Show me the future
Will see us join together
If the oceans split
Or the mountains sigh Then I
Will keep on dreaming
I live to dream again

Don´t be afraid if
you´re descending
The deepest despairs
Without a handrail
to guide you
Sometimes the sound
Of a thousand
Whispering words
Can confuse
But when you´re sleeping
They shift and
slide together
Bring meaning
To the canyon's cry So I
I keep on dreaming
I live to dream again

Sometimes the sound
Of a thousand
Whispers are where
You live a little fear
But feel the pressure

I feel us dream together
I feel no fear
I feel no fire Oh I
I keep on dreaming
I live to dream again 

I will have Friends OVER for Dinner and we can listen to this nice song :)
