Furniture - To Gus

 
0
Copied!
Maybe in your time
Things were worse than they are now
Or seems so
We gaze into the past it takes on a rosy glow
Or seems to
With ale at three and two a barrel
We could all forget our troubles
Or seem to
Sing the folks some songs
That have popped into your head
They're laughing
Put the donkey in the wash house
Grab a crust of bread
And you're laughing
Life up from the bottom has got you to the top
Or something
A life that is a symbol of never giving up
Or something
Tell us of the fame you've found
With Wait Until The Work Comes Round
Or something
Wandering by your place
I wonder did you ever starve
You always had a bob or two from making people laugh
The bright blue plaque
Proudly boasts your name
The bright blue posters say that nothing's changed
Gus, you wouldn't recognise your town
But you sure as hell would recognise the times
They're laughing
Or something
It seems so

Biography

Furniture is a British indie pop band that was formed in 1979 in London. The band was originally a quartet consisting of Jim Irvin (vocals, guitar), Tim Whelan (keyboards), Hamilton Lee (drums), and Maya Gilder (bass). They quickly gained a following in the London music scene with their melodic pop songs and catchy hooks.

Furniture released their debut single, "Why Are We In Love?" in 1981 and followed it up with their first album, "The Wrong People" in 1983. The album received critical acclaim and established the band as one of the leading acts in the UK indie music scene.

Over the years, Furniture went through several lineup changes and released a string of albums and singles that showcased their eclectic sound and songwriting skills. Their music was characterized by lush arrangements, poetic lyrics, and a blend of alternative rock, new wave, and post-punk influences.

Despite not achieving mainstream success, Furniture continued to be a cult favorite among music fans and critics. They disbanded in the late 1980s but reunited briefly in the early 2000s for a series of live shows and festival appearances.

Today, Furniture is remembered as one of the pioneering indie bands of the 1980s, with their music still cherished by fans of alternative pop and post-punk. Their influence can be heard in the music of contemporary indie bands, and their legacy continues to inspire new generations of musicians.
