London calling to the faraway towns
Now that war is declared-and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls
London calling, now don't look at us
All that phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing
[Chorus]
The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear error, but I have no fear
London is drowning-and I live by the river
London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it, brother, an' go it alone
London calling upon the zombies of death
Quit holding out-and draw another breath
London calling-and I don't wanna shout
But when we were talking-I saw you nodding out
London calling, see we ain't got no highs
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes
The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear error, but I have no fear
London is drowning-and I live by the river
I live by the river
The lyrics LONDON CALLING of THE CALLING is also present in the album Two (2004)
The Calling sono un gruppo musicale statunitense formatosi a Los Angeles nel 2001 da Alex Band (voce) e Aaron Kamin (chitarra). I due si sono incontrati quando Kamin usciva con la sorella di Band. Dopo aver firmato un contratto con l'etichetta RCA, il duo ha ingaggiato altri musicisti: Sean Woolstenhulme (chitarra), Billy Mohler (basso) e Nate Wood (batteria) per registrare e pubblicare il loro album di debutto *Camino Palmero* nel 2001. Il singolo "Wherever You Will Go" è diventato il brano più famoso del gruppo, raggiungendo la Top Ten sia negli Stati Uniti che nel Regno Unito e comparendo in numerosi film, spot televisivi e programmi TV. Il secondo album del gruppo, *Two*, pubblicato nel 2004 senza Woolstenhulme, Wood e Mohler, non ha avuto lo stesso successo di *Camino Palmero*. Attualmente il gruppo è in pausa, con Alex Band che si dedica a un progetto solista.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
