1.	In Love (1995) 02:56	lyrics	buy track
I'm falling in love with a girl I've just met today She's so pretty, she's so beautifully dressed I look at myself and I wish I was someone else Someone who could catch her eye with just a wink But I'm not that cute I've got nothing to say Nothing to share No money to pay the rent What can I do to make her mine? Could somebody help me? help me now! She brings me the light but how could I make her see When my heart is so afraid..., well just like me I think it's the first time 'cause I feel like it's going to break Into a million pieces: love..... it's there!! Tonight please let me be the one I just want to hold you tight Tonight is the night Tonight, it has to be the night When all my dreams could fly So close to the sun I'm falling in love with a boy I've just met today He's so pretty, he's so beautifully dressed I think it's the first time (yes i think it's the first time) 'Cause I feel like it's going to break Into a million pieces, love.... it's there!
2.	Julie (1996) 04:06	lyrics	buy track
Julie is moving away Leaving her friends Her home and her family So tired of bearing the rain And listening to the same Pretended sugary pop stars She bought a plane With the money her daddy gave her All over the world Nothing but rainy days and rock and roll Where was the love? Could someone tell her why all the groovies where gone Maybe tomorrow a better sound will come along Julie open your eyes There is a light at the skyline I think you'd better move up You've got to hang on to sunshine Julie open your heart There is no sense in protecting it You'll be a beautiful star Now drink some strawberry juice and free your mind Julie started to play With a glittering face The songs that she'd always loved And crowds of people in grey Where healing their pain (gritty gritty pain) At the multicoloured stereo sound Swinging around A thousand people were dancing through the night Music was flowing Unbelievable growing flowering vibes Colours and candles Groovy incense and shocking perfumes Julie remember Your love will save the world This is your life you can do whatever you like Julie, Julie take a balloon and fly Take a beautiful one
3.	Shine (Go To California) (2002) 03:22	lyrics	buy track
Eight o'clock, time to wake up Morning shower, a little make up Yellow dress and a watermelon smile 'Cause summer's finally here And now no fears are coming to your mind You feel so sunny and so happy and you shine I bet your life's gonna make a change It's time you make a move and rearrange your feelings Different, you feel different For the first time in your life. Try to find a place That it's right for you to fly away And maybe you can give it a try Take a sip of lemonade and find a hideaway Where you shine so bright Summer's in the air You can smell the flowers everywhere Rainy days are gone out of sight You can go to california Sure the sun will warm ya And then you'll shine Music plays, people hand in hand You never thought life could be so lovely Fall in love and take it to the end

Anywhere I go I need to share my groovy love I need to fly and hide my fears And fear those melodies in my ears Give to me your love Your endless dreams and lazy thoughts Your life is green and pink and blue I want a boyfriend just like you I love you sweet baby Bring back your tenderness I miss your company Bring back the naivety Those crazy nights dancing beat Anyway you'll always be lonely Sorry but I'm not feeling that lonely (Yes you are) Look at me, sorry, I 'm happy (Yes your are) Anywhere I go I need to share my groovy love I need to fly and hide my fears And fear those melodies in my ears Give to me your love Your endless dreams and lazy thoughts Your life is green and pink and blue I want a boyfriend just like you My girlfriend was so cute She loved the songs of Mama Cass That made her perfect to fill my simple life Anywhere I go I need to share my groovy love I need to fly and hide my fears And fear those melodies in my ears Give to me your love Your endless dreams and lazy thoughts Your life is green and pink and blue I want a boyfriend just like you

I know you've never been strong But from time to time you've shown A little sparkle of integrity Now this is the time To make it through the night They walked away from your life Taking all those crazy dreams That once belonged to only you But even without them You've got to save your smile You have some reasons to cry But you'll always see the grass Greener than any other one Now you have a chance to sit on the fence And think how good it could have been to live a life Of melodies and songs for everyone (I never did it right) You have some reasons to cry But you'll always see the grass Greener than any other one Now you have a chance to sit on the fence And think how good it could have been to live a life Of melodies and songs for everyone
6.	Silly Things (1996) 05:25	lyrics	buy track
I love you doing those silly things Laughing over my eyes in the fairground The way you play with your living Your childish heart is like sunny weather After all, the rain that came is gone And now my eyes are closed It feels better singing a love song Hear the sound, my feet are off the ground The sound of spring and love Sweet melodies that come to my voice sweet baby Fly away, somwhere beneath the waves Sorrounded by the sea Pretend that nobody hears your weeping Find a space where time slows down 'til break A place to be alone Confusion fills my imagination Now let me give you some candies They taste much better when we're together Our love will be never-ending As long as we're as light as two feathers I've been there for a long time Now could you give you sweet vibrations I love it when you smile at the sunshine!
7.	My Favourite Girlfriend (1994) 01:34	lyrics	buy track
There were so many times When my hands needed care Your were there to protect them And the nights I was low When my faith was too small Your were right there to save it From the iced days of Christmas To the warmth of July You've been always so gentle Though I'm not always easy You've been always so mild I just want you to thank you For being here by my side When my hands needed care Your were there to protect them And for singing my songs With a voice that I love You're my favourite girlfriend Though I'm not always easy You've been always so mild I just want you to thank you For being here by my side When my hands needed care Your were there to protect me
8.	Radio Milkyway (1996) 03:05	lyrics	buy track
We have a message to you To share all around the world Forget your sorrow We're going to be in the groove 'Cause we got the stereo sound Of today and tomorrow Easy pop tunes Strawberry style Now open the way For the Milkyway sound Looming up from the freeze Groovy people around the world Let us be in the scene And we promise to bring you love Take a chance on the beat Groovy people around the world Here's the sound of the spring Here's the sound you've been waiting for We've been holding it up We've lived up in a cloud A thousand lightyears from the Milkyway Now we're moving along We're taking the planet earth Fasten up your seat belts We have come to stay! Take a chance on the beat Groovy people around the world Here's the sound of the spring Here's the sound you've been waiting for We only want to see you smile With our music in the sun It's a summer breeze We're just sidereal Turn the radio on Let your dreams go Wherever they find love
9.	Fizzy Dizzy (1995) 03:28	lyrics	buy track
Inside a world of chocolate bars and cotton candy We love to crash in the bumper cars 'til going crazy We're living up in the space beyond the noisy world Don't speak, don't move, just fly away Your dreams are meant to stay Don't try to drown them in the shades It's like tiptoeing on the clouds On a sunday morning promenade Eating marshmellows and nuts Your sleepy face it brings back the sunshine to my life Inside a world of chocolate bars and cotton candy We love to crash in the bumper cars 'til going crazy Sweet fizzy dizzy when we jump into the big wheel Up in the yellow car we let our bubbling dreams go flying Round and round (Uh uh) look at the sunny sky Happy-go-lucky foolish time (Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh) Swimming across the stars We'd like to be just who we are Inside a world of chocolate bars and cotton candy We love to crash in the bumper cars 'til going crazy Sweet fizzy dizzy when we jump into the big wheel Up in the yellow car we let our bubbling dreams go flying We're living up in the space beyond the noisy world

Lately you've been changing your mind No more saturdays singing for no one 'Cause I've noticed a change in your smile It's like holidays finally I found Love! I know that you're gonna to be my love You're giving me hope, I know And it's gonna last so long, my love I know, I know Let's take our bicycles now Tell me... how does it feel? On our way to happy Up in a magic balloon we will fly away High, so high
11.	Bubblegum (1996) 04:13	lyrics	buy track
I first met you hanging around (With my little pretty girlfriend) You looked so cute, it was so easy to try (It was clear I wouldn't reject it) Lost in the crowd I couldn't hush my heart I couldn't see so far You disappeared in the noise of the night, of the night Your glance was an electric Flash! I saw you chewing bubblegum Through my Blue Tropic vodka glass Pop, you were so pop! Groovy stockings all around Green bell bottoms Sparkling lights Girls and boys all them pop kids feeling so high Then I tried getting close to you Yeah I was feeling over the moon Beat you were so beat! Mirror balls and sugary tunes Kept on going the whole night through So that's how I fell in love with you You standing there holding my hand (What a perfect situation) Hiding my love, I tried to pretend (You unlocked my imagination) Lost in the crowd C'est la follie de l'amour Dites-moi je t'aime toujours Me tu partiras et je resterais déçu Your glance was an electric Flash! I saw you chewing bubblegum Through my Blue Tropic vodka glass Pop, you were so pop! Groovy stockings all around Green bell bottoms Sparkling lights Girls and boys all them pop kids feeling so high Then I tried getting close to you Yeah I was feeling over the moon Beat you were so beat! Mirror balls and sugary tunes Kept on going the whole night through So that's how I fell in love with you
12.	Feelings (1996) 03:57	lyrics	buy track
If you keep on writing words of love in the seashore Then the water will come and make them fade forever I guess I've been always too much sensitive to ignore That your words were just a passing dream They would never true Must have been a sin You can love whoever, be loved by whoever I'm not a fool but i just thought I could trust on your Feelings, the ones you forgot when you left The ones you once said you would feel forever What kind of feelings are your fucking feelings? Well mine are melodies A kiss and a walk in the rain Some tears and a shivering faith forever These are my feelings I'm not ashamed to feel feelings Now say goodbye to the sunday afternoons singing "bubblegum" Say goodbye to all those extra peanut butter ice-creams at Häagen-Dazs Someday I will find another girl to share my daily round A girl with a sweeter voice, and a softer touch and a more innocent heart And bring her flowers and write her songs of love without a fear You may think I'm so soapy, well of course I am I'm so proud of it... I love Jimmy Webb and I love Karen Carpenter I love all the starry-eyed people who make me feel Feelings, the ones you forgot when you left the ones you once said you would feel forever What kind of feelings are your fucking feelings? Well mine are melodies A kiss and a walk in the rain Some tears and a shivering faith forever These are my feelings I'm not ashamed to feel feelings
13.	Magic People (1997) 03:41	lyrics	buy track
I just want to know Where do you want to go With all this violence Which breaks the silence Take a look at all the magic people Singing just for you We want to say to all the people of the world Stop the fighting 'cause it's not worth Now all the people of the world, stop I now We want to say to all the children of the world Stop the violence and stick to love Now all the children of the world, reject it now Some people are trying to blow up the world I just want to know Where do you want to go With all your smugness And your fucking selfishness Take a look at all the magic people Laughing at your face We want to say to all the people of the world Stop the fighting 'cause it's not worth Now all the people of the world, stop I now We want to say to all the children of the world Stop the violence and stick to love Now all the children of the world, reject it now
14.	Over (1993) 03:51	lyrics	buy track
I'm staring at the sea Pretending not to be Your favourite lover Too many groovy flights Too many cocktail nights But I've grown older And I'm not your style anymore Over, don't you know it's over My love for you was ended Long before it begun Over, all my dreams are over Since they were held by you And now you walk away Sunny days (how happy we were) Country lanes Lazy tunes They lead me back again to you Over I know it's over (closed up) But my love's growing stronger (closed up) And there's no way to stop it now (closed up)

RECUERDOS QUE OLVIDÉ 003

One of the collections we are treating like our favorite child at Elefant, and the one that has been most well-received by our followers, is “Recuerdos que olvidé” (Memories I Forgot), which collects demos and previously unreleased recordings from some of our favorite and our most representative groups. We inaugurated the collection with AEROLINEAS FEDERALES, continued with NOSOTRÄSH, and now our third release is going to be nothing less than a limited-edition copy of MILKYWAY’s first demos, which were mostly recorded before the start of LA CASA AZUL.

The demo concept has always been associated with an early stage of a song, sometimes even rougher, but always with a special charm, and in which you can trace the essence of the songwriter. “Up, Up And Away (Home Demos 1993-2002)” is full of great songs and huge hits that are so typical of our songwriter. What’s amazing here is how, in 1993, in a room, with an analog 4-track (for the songs from before 1996) and a digital 8-track (the songs after 1996), there are already songs as incredible as “Over” - the final track on this album – almost 10 years before LA CASA AZUL’s first full-length was released. 14 songs that highlight all the things we now know about Guille: his versatility, his wide range of styles, his unlimited imagination, and his inimitable personality when it comes to writing great pop melodies. But there are also discoveries and surprises in each and every one of the songs that comprise this album:

“In Love” (1995) first appeared on MILKYWAY’s eponymous debut CD-Single on Annika (and remember that while LA CASA AZUL uses Spanish as their language of choice, MILKYWAY does his thing in English), begins elegantly, between lounge cushions with echoes of the best Soft Pop from the 60s and those la-la-la’s that have returned to take us to an unforgettable place. A romantic hook, all shiny and young, where Ester Pascual’s voice appears for the first time – the only name there with Guille’s on the albums credits. It is a tribute to “Love So Fine” by ROGER NICHOLS & THE SMALL CIRCLE OF FRIENDS.

“Julie” (1996) starts the first danceable beats, with one of those impossible structures that jumps from URSULA 1000 to France Gal, from SAINTE ETIENNE to THE BEACH BOYS, wrapping things up with an amazingly Beatle-like chorus. Julie in my room with diamonds.

“Shine (Go To California)” (2002) is a delicious house specialty, as if THE LEFT BANK went on vacation to the sunniest part of the world to have a party, that inexplicably ends up blowing up in that techno-pop ending, owing so much to J-Pop.

“My Groovy Love” (1997) moves to the beat of sweet Eurodisco, with dream-like arrangements, a seriously catchy chorus, PET SHOP BOY stylings, and an undeniable tendency toward the dance floor.

“Fence” (1996); THE LEFT BANKE are back in their purest form, holding hands with LOVIN’ SPOONFUL, who go to visit Billy Nicholas and Paul Simon, in a song with a surprisingly folky spirit.

“Silly Things” (1996), funk, disco, techno-pop, PIZZICATO FIVE, KRAFTWERK, infinite synthesizers, impossible beats, celestial harmonies… This song is impossible to categorize, with its mix of a thousand different sounds and references, to listen and dance to. Must I remind you that we’re talking about Guille Milkyway?

“My Favourite Girlfriend” (1994): Another surprise with that acoustic guitar that the song starts off with, as if it were unplugged, with more folk tones, a mix of Donovan, Laura Nyro, Simon & Garfunkel… This bareness that Nick Garrie so badly wanted on his debut album, curiously enough at the hand of one of someone who is one of the masters of arrangements.

“Radio Milkyway” (1996) is an anthem. Why couldn’t we enjoy this wonder before, which describes the universe of MILKYWAY so well? From home-grown techno-pop to eurodisco, from CAPSULE to HELEN LOVE, from BIS to THE HUMAN LEAGUE, from FLIPPER’S GUITAR to Jean Jacques Perrey, this tremendous sing-along hit has special meaning on this album: “It’s the sound of the spring / It’s the sound you’ve been waiting for”.

“Fizzy Dizzy” (1995) is another song that was included on “In Love EP”. Electro, disco, techno, house, the bpms crossing the limits of possibility, the club about to burst, and suddenly the gameboy melody comes on, everyone stops and looks at each other. Yes, that’s the starting bell for the final blast, the euphoria, the dream-pop that bursts into absolute happiness.

“I Know” (2002) dives into the sunniest, most elegant part of MILKYWAY, sunshine-pop sponsored by Burt Bacharach, Henry Mancini and THE BEACH BOYS. Delicious, sublime.

“Bubblegum” (1996) is euro-pop and dream-pop, with echoes of LIO and the beloved Jacno. Another one of those marvelous choruses so unmistakably MILKYWAY, dream-like and evocative, and at the same time agile and energetic.

“Feelings” (1996); A new unforgettable chorus, PET SHOP BOYS, DEEE-LITE, NEW ORDER… melodies that chain themselves to your heart and never let go. What’s more, like that string quartet in the final moments of the Titanic, the melodies haunt you with a will of their own in the most complicated moments.

“Magic People” (1997). Yes, we were missing the vocoders, so we could begin to come full circle. Somewhere between SCISSOR SISTERS and ERASURE, OMD and Andreas Dorau, comes this new magical dance-floor hit.

“Over” (1993); Toy-like sequencers, samba, electronic deconstruction, the oldest song by Guille so far. It’s a surprising song, with a noticeable dark side, with that chorus full of Brazilian echoes but that opens little by little to the positivity and light more typical of his songs.

When it came to “La Polinesia Meridional”, Guille Milkyway talked to us about escapism as a way of understanding life and the world, something that takes on special meaning considering what’s going on in the world around us right now. In some way, this album gives even more meaning to that, now that we can see his special joie de vivre in it, that sunny vitality, that constant celebration of feelings by a songwriter who seems to have been born already bursting with inspiration that we are still enjoying to this day. And we have proof once again that what Guille has is not inspiration; it’s much more than that, something innate, intuitive and incredible.
