Even though the song is about 25 years old it fits so well in today’s internet age. With all of the friends we make online these days on all of the social networks this song kind of says it all. Even if most of us never meet in person, somehow we’re all linked together in cyberspace.
By the way, the singer is Phil Oakey from the Human League and the synth music was by the legendary Giorgio Moroder. The song was from a movie called “Electric Dreams” that was well ahead of its time when it came to the technology that played a part in the movie. For more details about the movie including a bunch of movie clips go to this post that was done a while ago on here.
Here’s the music video
Here are the lyrics
I only knew you for a while
I never saw your smile
til it was time to go
Time to go away (time to go away)
Sometimes its hard to recognise
Love comes as a surprise
And its too late
Its just too late to stay
Too late to stay
We`ll always be together
However far it seems
(love never ends)
We`ll always be together
Together in electric dreams
Because the friendship that you gave
Has taught me to be brave
No matter where I go i`ll never find a better prize
(find a better prize)
Though youre miles and miles away
I see you every day I dont have to try
I just close my eyes, I close my eyes
Well always be together
However far it seems
(love never ends)
Well always be together
Together in electric dreams
