Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See anytime I hear this tune I just start drifting away
And all I wanna do is go back
Sometimes I feel like I'm in Barcelona
See anytime I hear this tune I just start drifting away
Sometimes I, I feel like I don't know what's going on
And sometimes I'm led to believe everything I know is wrong
And always keeping the truth it's all in my mind
Explanations for the way that I feel
Are so hard to find
That's why that's why
Sometimes I feel like I'm in Barcelona
See anytime I hear this tune I just start drifting away
And all I wanna do is go back, go back
Sometimes I feel like I'm in Barcelona
See anytime I hear this tune I just start drifting away
And all I wanna do is go back back
(And all I wanna do is go)
(And all I wanna do is go back)
I feel (like)
I feel
I feel (like)
Like I wanna go back, like I gotta go back
I feel (like)
Said I feel
Like I wanna go back, like I gotta go back
Each time I decide these feelings can't keep going on, no no
It's just a matter of time before they come back twice as strong
Sometimes I feel like I'm in Barcelona
See anytime I hear this tune I just start drifting away
And all I wanna do is go back back back
Sometimes I feel like I'm in Barcelona
See anytime I hear this tune I just start drifting away
And all I wanna do is go back, go back
Sometimes I feel like I'm in Barcelona
See anytime I hear this tune I just start drifting away
And all I wanna do is go back, back
Sometimes I feel like I'm in Barcelona
Sometimes I feel like I'm in Barcelona
See anytime I hear this tune I just start drifting away

@freelancer2011
Distribution/territorial rights, sadly. I used to work for a streaming service. Sometimes, I learnt thru their news they can even stipulate the type of availability (stream or download-to-keep for X amount of time). Agreements can last a long time. -You get a glimpse of this if you look at certain albums (esp. albums with various artists), some songs may be greyed-out. If it's greyed out, it means that song is not available in your territory under Service X.
@taridean
It's almost criminal that it's not available to stream. I'm glad I still have it on vinyl that I bought when it was initially released. "Get rid of your record collection and embrace digital" they said. Thank goodness I ignored that.

I like to remember how I cried on the shoulder of Stamina MC. We were drunk after a couple of shots after a private party for friends. I told him how his music affected me when I was a high school student. He cried too, "No one, no one, no woman has ever said anything touching to me like you just told me". The manager, party owner, my friends and guests stood beside us trying to soothe our tears 😂. But they didn't understand us. My shoulder was soaking wet. Moscow, summer 2016.
