Lyrics

RADIO NOWHERE

Live 28 Jun 2009 version


[Spoken:] Alright, let's go! This is "Radio Nowhere".

One, two, three four!I was trying to find my way home
All I heard was a drone
Bouncing off a satellite
The last lone American night

This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?

I was spinning 'round a dead dial
Another lost number in a file
Dancing down a dark hole
Searching for a world with some soul

This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?

I just want to hear some rhythm
(I just) want to hear some rhythm
I just want to hear some rhythm
(I just want to hear some rhythm)

I want a thousand guitars
Pounding drums
Million different voices speaking in tongues

This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?

Driving through the misty rain
Searching for a mystery train
Bopping through the wild blue
Trying to make a connection with you

This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there?
Is there anybody alive out there?

I just want to feel your rhythm
I just want to (feel your rhythm)
I just want to feel your rhythm
(I just want to feel your rhythm)
I just want to feel (your rhythm) (I just want to feel)
(I just want to feel your rhythm) (I just want to feel)
I just want to feel (I just want to feel)
Yeah

London Calling: Live In Hyde Park

Hard Rock Calling is a music festival held at Hyde Park in London, England, around early summer each year since 2006, and spans the period of two or three days. The festival is organized by Hard Rock Cafe and Live Nation.

During their Working On A Dream Tour, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band performed on the last day (28 Jun 2009) of the festival and their performance, was captured with High Definition (HD) cameras and was released in its complete form on DVD the following year. The film was officially released on 22 Jun 2010, though it premiered on the big screen in a 90-minute edited version on 05 Jun 2010 at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Museum in Cleveland, OH. The 90-minute cut was also screened in June 2010 various theaters across the United States, with benefits going either to the venue itself in the case of non-profit theater, of The Danny Federici Melanoma Fund.

The film is credited to Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band and is titled "London Calling: Live In Hyde Park". The release takes its name from LONDON CALLING, the Clash classic that Springsteen opened the show with.

In addition to the complete 28 Jun 2009 concert, the release also contains performances of three songs from other shows: an instrumental version of RAISE YOUR HAND from an unknown performance plays over the closing credits, and THE RIVER from Glastonbury Festival and music video for WRECKING BALL recorded at Giants Stadium are included as bonus tracks.
