R.I.P. Karl, thanks for the beautiful music and the great memories <3

[hummingbirdsyndicate]

He should be considered one of the greats

[thedollarbillsMilton]

Such a great band. Such a brilliant musician and lyricist. Wrote such hauntingly beautiful songs with poignant lyrics about the fate of the world, environment etc. Rest well Mr. Wallinger. Taken far too soon.

[headovmetal]

Rest in Peace, Sir. You will be greatly missed.

[alhollywood]

Saw World Party at the Santa Monica Civic Center in 1986, just love this.

[mkmstillstackin]

what a great little artistic piece. perfect the way it is.

[stpierreorama]

This song is excellent. A true hidden gem

[t_scott]

Thanks guys. Great memories of a fabulous song!

[Clambelly]

World Party busted the pop rock formula.... great songs

[ATP]

Wow, that voice. I just love that voice

[GeorgiaGrowGuy]

World party was the best pop band since the beetles.

[Chickaboom]

All these songs make me feel 20 years old again and hopeful about the world, even if just for a few minutes. Thank you Karl, (and your buddy Mike Scott) for all, the songs and hope over the years.

[philipjames]

My favouite albulm of the 90s. Goodbye Jumbo.

[PaulWilliamGibson]

So sorry to hear of Karl’s passing. He really was one of the best.

[michaelbackhouse]

Love this and World Party. There are few guitarists like Karl who play guitar left handed without changing the strings around, which mean they have to play chords upside down. As if it isn't hard enough. Well done Karl.

Temazo, World Party!!! great performance.!!!!

[AlanLawra]

And if you listen now
You might hear
A new sound coming in
As an old one disappears
See the world in just one grain of sand
You better take a closer look
Don't let it slip right thru your hand
Won't hou please hear the call
The world says

Chorus
Put the message in the box
Put the box into the car
Drive the car around the world
Until you get heard

Now is the moment
Please understand
The road is wide open
To the heart of every man
A few simple words
So a mule could understand
He don't want tomorrow
If it's just crumbling into sand
Won't please hear the call
She says

Chorus

Until you get heard

The world says
Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
Cos i'm waiting right here with my open arms
Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your soul to me
Cos i'm waiting to behold your many charms
Is that love in the air?
She says

Chorus

Until you get heard
Until you get heard
Until you get heard
Until you get heard

[arthjuarez]

como me encantaba esa rolita y ahora para mi es un clasico

[StevenHalverson-km]

For anyone wondering, it’s drive the car around the world, until you get heard.

[SpartanBeta]

woah :o his voice is still really healthy compared to the other older version of the song, unlike Robert plant
