Broken Radio

Broken Radio
Written and Performed by Jesse Malin (2007)


I was thinking about another time still in my mind
When I used to know a little girl high on this world

Your baby loves you more than you know
Raised on rivalry and Rock 'n Roll
Moving to the Motor City soul
She lets go
On the radio

Well we never had a lot of cash
But we loved those kids
Some say that she missed the boat
But she just burned the bridge

The angels love you more than you know
Raised on rivalry and Rock 'n Roll
Moving to the Motor City soul
She takes hold
On the radio

She used to talk about astrology
She was born in June
She danced with strangers and celebrities
Empty stars and the full moon

I was thinking about the universe
For what it's worth
Or the one about the Phoenix bird
That died and then returned

The angels love you more than you know
Raised on rivalry and Rock 'n Roll
Moving to the Motor City soul
Moving to the Motor City soul
Sometimes I see her face
When there's no place to go
On the radio
On the radio
On the radio
On the radio broken radio

Really nice nostalgic shot...remembering sitting up at night tuning around the short wave bands on my old Hallicrafters (with tubes). Remembering those "Motor City" days. Nice mood and simplicity.

Lovely lighting - hope the radio isn't really broken it looks like a classic.

The radio waves are still flowing.
Probably just needs a new transistor or two.
