about

A song about meeting a girl in a bar. The chorus is in Irish as is the song title. Athas means Happy.

The chorus means: When you're with me, I am happy.

lyrics

It was a dark cold stormy night when I met you,
You said you liked LCD Soundsystem I said I do too,
It seemed the whole universe was hidden in your eyes,
And a smile so beautiful it could light the skies,
My heart was in my mouth lest I say the wrong thing,
Suppressing clichés in my head like you're an angel without wings,

[Chorus - as Gaeilge]
Nuair a bhionn tu i mo thionta, ta athas orm

Should I pretend to be confident or admit that I'm shy,
With you I can't be nonchalant no matter how hard I try,
And I work up the courage to ask you on a date,
And you run like the rabbit from wonderland you say you're late,
Future memories wash away like the flowing tide,
And a consoling voice in my head said at least you tried,

[Chorus - as Gaeilge]
Nuair a bhionn tu i mo thionta ta athas orm

As I turn to walk away you reappear at my side,
You hand me a piece of paper and say call me some time,
I realize I hadn't asked for your name but you had written it down,
It was the sweetest of the palindromes oh what a beautiful sound

Stuck on Repeat Cork, Ireland

Stuck on Repeat creates irrepressibly catchy electronic music, designed to make people dance. His style combines “kick you in the chest” drums with synth lines so filthy, they’re almost indecent, and catchy hooks that put Captain Ahab to shame.
