City's breaking down on a camel's back
They just have to go 'cause they don't know whack
So all you fill the streets, it's appealing to see
You won't get out the county, 'cause you're damned as free
You got a new horizon, it's ephemeral style
A melancholy town where we never smile
And all I wanna hear is the message beep
My dreams, they gotta kiss because I don't get sleep, no
Windmill, windmill for the land
Turn forever, hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is ticking, falling down
Love forever, love is free
Let's turn forever, you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
Is everybody in?
Laughing gas these hazmats, fast cats,
Lining them up like ass cracks,
Ladies, homies, at the track
It's my chocolate attack
Shit, I'm stepping in the heart of this here
Care bear bumping in the heart of this here
Watch me as I gravitate,
Hahahahahaa
Yo, we goin' ghost town,
This Motown,
With yo sound
You're in the blink
You gonna bite the dust
Can't fight with us
With yo sound
You kill the Inc.
So don't stop, get it, get it
Until you jet ahead
Yo, watch the way I navigate,
Hahahahahaa
Shake it, shake it, shake it, feel good, AHHHHahahahah
Shake it, shake it, shake it, feel good, AHHHHahahahah

Windmill, windmill for the land
Turn forever, hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is ticking, falling down
Love forever, love is free
Let's turn forever, you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
Is everybody in?
Don't stop, get it, get it
We are your captains in it
Steady, watch me navigate,
Hahahahahaa
Don't stop, get it, get it

Eh, plenty of other places to get hip hop... this isn't that station.
We all have to put up with something we don't like around here. Anyway - this isn't what I'd call hip hop, I'm not sure I've ever heard any straight out hip hop on here which I would welcome and in fact I'm going to make some suggestions.
same song twice in a day. ok!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this CD...have for years... do yourself a favor and watch the Direct TV concert from many years ago. sooooo good...
indeed. i think it's from 2005 or something? i watched it this last weekend - probably for the 5th time. it's awesome.

And it looks like they're all having SO much fun! Especially the string section.
Not too many songs on RP mention ass cracks.
Or HazMats.
For those who say the lyrics are meaningless, I knew exactly what the lyrics meant then. This song made me want to jump up and sieze the day:
"Windmill, windmill for the land
Turn forever hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is ticking, falling down
Love forever, love is freely
Turned forever, you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
Is everybody in?"
I just don't _get_ it, though. Great beat, the rap section is cool, but the lyrics don't make any _sense_. (Not that anyone said they had to!)
On my gosh!
This must be the 1st time this has ever happened with a rap song:
Don't get me wrong
I wear a sarong
pass the bong
Short, no long
Ding...a dong?
King, no its Kong
Can't count the number of people on to whom I've foisted RP. No complaints yet, though, so onward we go.
True story -- a friend who I had not seen in years was in town. I had turned him on to RP some time in the mid 2010s. He asked me what I listened to, and I said mostly streaming stuff. He perked up with that, "oh there's this GREAT station called Radio Paradise." I just pretended to be impressed.
Not too many songs on RP mention ass cracks.
Or hazmats!
And I still love it!
Witness the spectrum of diversity on this fully operational radio station !
IT'S A TRAP!
Sorry, couldn't resist. Happily trapped...
Observed in vacuum this is a solid 9.
Dads listening to this station react to hip hop like my allergic cousin to a peanut..
In this house it is the Dad who constantly pushes RP on his kids

Reality, who listens to mainstream radio anymore??

Great tune, solid 9 from South Billyburg where the only vacuums are Hoovers!
Not sure what you mean about Dads.

Yes!
We all of us thank you two! xoxo
turning off slide show, just to be safe.
Seems like these Bananas's boogeing is synched

Other replies to this are great and mentioned the human touch. What is missing with automatic DJ apps is the magic of the segue, which Bill makes look easy, which is genius. AND themed sets so subtle you may not notice, which no algorithm could dream up.
TOTALLY NAILED IT!
Plastic beach is also magnificent album, and environmental, though.
The Kinks were first ;-) -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDhfzuWs8Xw
Tom Tom Club — Suboceana
Marvin Gaye — Got To Give It Up
Gorillaz — Feel Good Inc.
Bill is in a party mood. I like that!
Rap? Hahahaha...the semi-spoken part in the middle of this song makes this a rap song about as much as Dylan's Subterranean Homesick Blues is a rap song. A pet peeve of mine is when people dismiss "rap" music categorically. You couldn't pay me to listen to commercial, mainstream rap that celebrates money, guns and (politely) women...but there is so much creativity and musical genius in the wider hip-hop genre (underground, indie, etc.) Lots of poets and idealists there, along with infectious melody, awesome beats, and lyrical innovation.
As last posts go, this one seems hard to beat. Is it too late to nominate this for 2013 post of the year? :-)
I'm just the opposite. Anything close to Rap is my favorite flavor.
Just my thoughts when I first heard it, love it, though!

Amen! And the rappers on this track, De La Soul, are some of the best.
Their 3rd album, Buhloone Mindstate, is easily among the best albums of all time, IMO.

(That's who provides the rap portion of this tune.)
the trouble with Pandora is that it gets incredibly boring. What I love about RP is the variety
Yeah. Pandora is horrible, but I still go there. Sometimes I need a change of pace and you can make your own station, worthless though it may be.

Humans rule. Talented, devoted humans are the best!

Here, here! for hear_my_name! Well put!

Absolutely it does, rap is not one of those conduits. Period....

Every now and then I feel just like this. But then RP plays something I love and would never have known about otherwise, and I am grateful to have the chance to listen or not listen knowing that something great is just around the corner. We have music we love because artists pushed the normal boundaries, and because others were there to listen. I think there is always more to come if we keep our hearts, minds, and ears open.
I don't know if I'd go that far... Well, maybe a tiny bit, but only if The Streets were included in the playlist.
I did drunk karaoke to this once. At times it's almost as hard as Blues Travellers's The Hook, even when one isn't half in the bag.
I wish they had an emoticon for "snort laugh out loud"
Hip Hop never killed anyone, except for maybe several hip hop artists.

Facing up to the fact that The Madonna -vs- Lady Gaga moment just aint gonna happen on RP.
Too true.

I don't think that's what he's singing in the second line there. I hear the words "bitch" "slap" and "girl."
Nice!
while listening to U2, I was thinking it was similar to this Gorillaz song. I guess Bill thought so too!
vice versa...but you're right
(By the way, did he say "ass-crack"? Eeewww.)

Melody is similar.

I always crank the volume when I hear this song. . .
I needed a "pick-me-up"!
LOL - perfectly stated!
Edit: and I really like this song, and the changes within it.
Full respect to Damon Albarn. From Blur, to his work in Mali to Deltron3030 and Gorillaz he he just does music. Usually great music. He tries it all, and I think he's often underated as a complete musician. Look at all he's done and think back to how silly the whole Oasis vs Blur thing was. Blur had been going for 11 years before that even started! Oasis were a one-trick pony. A pretty talented pony, but still...

I enjoy the entire "package" - the concept, the music, the art, the animation.
Course I grew up a fan of the Monkees and the Banana Splits!
I comment too much on this one song. I must like it.
