Anteriormente ya se ha escrito en este blog sobre Hoodoo Gurus, la mejor banda de los años 80. Algunos piensan que la decada de los 80 fue hortera a mas no poder, la verdad es que tienen razon, pero dentro de los años 80 habia grandes bandas, las cuales no aparecen afortunadamente en los recopilatorios, una de esta bandas fueron y son Hoodoo Gurus.
Canción: Leilani
Disco: The Stoneage Romeos (1984)
Dave Faulkner/J.Baker/K.Rendall/R. Radalj
Somewhere on a South Pacific island
Sits a young man staring at the surf.
His native girlfriend died a death quite violent
A tribal sacrifice made to the earth.
She was brown, her hair was black, her eyes were blue.
A chief's daughter, Leilani was her name.
She and her young man made a handsome two
But lava tore them both apart again.
Leilani, don't go to the volcano (he'd say).
They were saving for a little hut,
She collected sea-shells every day.
Everynight they'd share a cigarette
But The ancient, angry gods got in the way.
Leilani, don't go to the volcano (he'd plead).
(CEREMONY:)
Katoomba, Hey! Macumbah, Ho!
Umgawah! Hey! Ho! Hey-eh! Ah...
Leilani - crula-bula-ulladulla-wok-a-tai
Aba-laba-laba, Hut!
Leilani-nevageta-huta-tera-cota-tile
Aba-laba-laba Hut!
Umgawah!!!
Still the young man sits upon the beach,
He's staring misty-eyed out into space.
He's thinking about his girlfriend (of late, deceased),
At least her death had purpose; now his life is a waste!
Leilani, don't go to the volcano (he'd beg her)
Esta cancion fue su primer single, mañana mas.
