The Parlotones - Downtown Love (Audio)

/ / Lyrics / /
It's okay to fall apart
No-one cares who you are
Here in downtown, here in downtown girl
Unpack your woes, forget the no-shows
We're all lost here, we're all lost here girl

There's someone to catch you, darling
A safe place to land
Someone who sees your charm
And that wants to understand

This is downtown love

Embrace the truth
We’ve lost our youth
Our innocence and all that's true
But baby not for you
You've still got plans, so see them through
Forget the others think of you
Think of you girl

There's someone to catch you, darling
A safe place to land
Someone who sees your charm
And that wants to understand

This is downtown love

They'll kick you down if you get up
And they'll stomp the ground if you've had enough
You and I darling we can get out of here
Take my hand let's run, let’s run, let’s disappear

Run, run as fast as we can
We’ve gotta get out of here

Nothing below us or above
All we have is this downtown love
Wash away our dirty tears
Take my hand, let's disappear

It’s okay, embrace the start
We've left behind our fractured past
We are outside

Put simply, The Parlotones are South Africa’s biggest selling pop/rock act ever. Having just celebrated their 20th anniversary as a band, The Parlotones initially booked a week at the High Seas Studios in Johannesburg in 2018 to record three tracks. However, when they emerged four months later, they had twenty-five.

The result is the new album, China which confronts listeners with 14 tracks that explore The Parlotones' diverse musical range. Released in North America via OK!Good Records on July 28th, China will undoubtedly bring in a new audience for the band, yet stays true to their unique sound that has already won them over 900,000+ albums sales worldwide.

The Parlotones have toured extensively across the globe since 2007 and have played hundreds of shows and festivals including stops at T in the Park, V Fest, SXSW, and Canadian Music Week. They have also shared the stage with renown acts like Coldplay, Snow Patrol, Violent Femmes, and Imagine Dragons. One of the band’s many highlights came in 2009/2010 during their ‘Stardust Galaxies’ world tour as they sold out headline arena shows at the 20,000 capacity Coca Cola Dome in Johannesburg and the Grand West Arena in Cape Town. In 2010 the band also opened up the soccer World Cup, where they were broadcast to roughly 1 Billion people worldwide.
