Nik Kershaw - The Riddle (ORIGINAL VIDEO 1984, COMPLETE WITHOUT PUBLICITY)
(Lyric)
The Riddle
Nik Kershaw
I got two strong arms,
blessings of Babylon
time, to carry on and try
for sins and false alarms
so to American the brave
wise man save.
Near a tree by a river there's a hole in the ground.
Where an old man of Aran goes around and around.
And his mind is a beacon in the veil of the night.
For a strange kind of fashion there's a wrong and a right
But he'll never never fight over you.
I got plans for us
nights in the scullery
and days, instead of me I only
know what to discuss
Oh, for anything but light
Wise men fighting over you
It's not me you see,
pieces of valentine
and just, a song of mine to keep
from burning history
seasons of gasoline and gold
Wise men fold.
Near a tree by a river there's a hole in the ground
Where an old man of Aran goes around and around.
And his mind is a beacon in the veil of the night.
For a strange kind of fashion there's a wrong and a right
But he'll never never fight over you.
I got time to kill, sly looks in corridors without
a plan of yours a blackbird sings on bluebird hill.
Thanks to the calling of the wild
wise mens child.
.........
Near a tree by a river there's a hole in the ground
Where an old man of Aran goes around and around.
And his mind is a beacon in the veil of the night.
For a strange kind of fashion there's a wrong and a right
But he'll never never fight.
Near a tree by a river there's a hole in the ground
Where an old man of Aran goes around and around.
And his mind is a beacon in the veil of the night.
For a strange kind of fashion there's a wrong and a right
But he'll never never fight over you
No he'll never never fight over you.

I wasn't even born when this song was made, but I absolutely love it. It's a shame only a few of his songs became hits in the US. The video is awesome, great imagery. And I agree with chantykwats, love the hair.

I like the Alice in Wonderland visuals. Very storybook. Clever artists all around. Thanks Nik. Enjoy this video time and time again.
