Spring: British band (1970's)
Spring were a Leicester-based British progressive rock band that represented the early 1970s progressive rock movement.
A one-shot band, it recorded only one album in its career, a self-titled LP released in 1971. Spring's music is notable for the use of the mellotron with three of the its five members credited with playing that instrument on the album.
Members[edit]
Spring originally consisted of Pat Moran (vocals), Ray Martinez (guitars), Kips Brown (keyboards), Pick Withers (drums) and Adrian Maloney (bass), all of whom had previously played in various local Leicester bands.
A turning point in Spring's fortunes happened after a gig in Cardiff, when the band's van broke down somewhere in the Welsh countryside, coincidentally very near where producer/engineer Kingsley Ward had recently set up Rockfield Studios. Ward would later marvel at the "coincidence of meeting a group with a broken down truck in your own home town when you have previously spent months traipsing around the country in search of talent". He was particularly intrigued by the fact that they owned a Mellotron, and "invited them down the following week for an audition with my brother Charles and myself", the outcome of which was "good enough for us to want to be involved with them". Several demo sessions followed. The band were rehearsing at Rockfield when producer Gus Dudgeon (of David Bowie and Elton John fame) dropped by to check the studio out, heard them play and expressed interest in producing them. A few months later, sessions took place at both Rockfield and London's Trident Studios, and the resulting album was released on the RCA/Neon label in 1971.
In spite of supporting Velvet Underground on a UK tour, plus Keith Christmas and The Sutherland Brothers on various dates, the band broke up in 1972 following aborted attempts at recording a second album. Two previously unreleased songs from these sessions (featuring new bassist Peter Decindis) appeared on The Laser's Edge's 1992 CD reissue of the album, along with "Fool's Gold" from the first album sessions. Moran later worked as sound engineer at Rockfield Studios, notably for Van der Graaf Generator and Robert Plant; he died in early 2011. Martinez became an in-demand session guitarist, working with the likes of Alkatraz, Michael Chapman, Gypsy, Tim Rose and Robert Plant. Pick Withers later became the drummer for Dire Straits, playing on their first four records. Kips Brown became a session musician, playing with Andy Fairweather Low and others, and was in a later band called 'Wellington'. Adrian Moloney returned to the Midlands, where he worked alongside several well-known artists and groups. A solo career as a jobbing musician and minor impresario took him all over the Midlands, and also to Tenerife for several summer seasons. He was working right up to his premature death in 2010.
Pat Moran became a notable Record Producer and worked with Lou Gramm, Robert Plant Iggy Pop, Edie Brickell and the new Bohemians as well as many others. For verification check Pat's obituary in the Guardian newspaper. On 25 May 2015 a double CD of Spring released on Esoteric Records, a part of Cherry Red Records, London. For verification you can check Tarantula recordings, a part of Bucks Music Group, London.

Butakah Cinta
Spring Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Terpaksa aku menanti
Sehingga teguhnya pendirian di hati
Bukan hanya kepentingan
Malahan keegoan telah ku korbankan
Berlimpahan kasih sayang... aku curahkan
Buat mu seorang...
Kiranya semua itu
Tak memadai bagi mu
Apa sebenarnya yang kau mahu
Ku tak tahu...
Kau hilang bila ku tiba
Kau datang bila ku kecewa...
Terasa diri... di persenda...
Dimana berakhirnya nanti
Permainan sandiwara mu ini...
Sesungguhnya aku... tak mengerti...
Jika benar cinta itu buta...
Butakah mata ku...
Berkali terluka masih jua... ku menunggu...
Apa yang ku inginkan...
Cuma kejujuran dalam perhubungan...
Jika itu tiada...
Apalah ertinya...
Penantian ini hanya sia-sia.
Kau hilang bila ku tiba
Kau datang bila ku kecewa...
Terasa diri... di persenda...
Dimana berakhirnya nanti
Permainan sandiwara mu ini...
Sesungguhnya aku... tak mengerti...
Jika benar cinta itu buta...
Butakah mata ku...
Berkali terluka masih jua... ku menunggu...
Apa yang ku inginkan...
Cuma kejujuran dalam perhubungan...
Jika itu tiada...
Apalah ertinya...
Penantian ini hanya sia-sia.
The lyrics to Spring's song "Butakah Cinta" speak of the frustration and confusion one feels in a relationship that lacks honesty and clarity. The singer expresses their willingness to sacrifice their own pride and ego for the sake of love, but is met with uncertainty and a lack of reciprocation from their partner. They wonder what it is exactly that their partner wants and if their efforts are even enough. The repetition of the line "jika benar cinta itu buta" (if love is truly blind) emphasizes the singer's feelings of being lost and unsure in this relationship, and the pain of waiting for something that may never come.
The chorus of the song highlights the contrast between the singer's feelings of being used as a convenience by their partner ("kau hilang bila ku tiba, kau datang bila ku kecewa" - you disappear when I arrive, you come back when I'm disappointed) and their own genuine, selfless love ("berlimpahan kasih sayang aku curahkan buatmu seorang" - I pour forth abundant love and affection for you alone). The repeated question of "butakah mataku" (is my vision impaired) speaks to the singer's feelings of confusion and self-doubt, as they wonder if they are blind to their partner's true intentions.
Overall, "Butakah Cinta" is a poignant expression of the complexities and challenges of love, especially when trust and communication are lacking.

Berapa lamakah lagi
How much longer must I wait
Terpaksa aku menanti
I am forced to wait
Sehingga teguhnya pendirian di hati
Until my heart is firm in its decision
Bukan hanya kepentingan
It's not just about self-interest
Malahan keegoan telah ku korbankan
I have sacrificed my ego
Berlimpahan kasih sayang... aku curahkan
I pour out an abundance of love
Untuk mu seorang...
For you alone...
Kiranya semua itu
Perhaps all of that
Tak memadai bagi mu
Is not sufficient for you
Apa sebenarnya yang kau mahu
What do you really want
Ku tak tahu...
I don't know...
Kau hilang bila ku tiba
You disappear when I arrive
Kau datang bila ku kecewa...
You come when I am disappointed...
Terasa diri... di persenda...
I feel mocked...
Dimana berakhirnya nanti
Where will it all end
Permainan sandiwara mu ini...
Your little game...
Sesungguhnya aku... tak mengerti...
Truly, I don't understand...
Jika benar cinta itu buta...
If love is truly blind...
Butakah mata ku...
Are my eyes blind...
Berkali terluka masih jua... ku menunggu...
Despite repeated hurts I still wait...
Apa yang ku inginkan...
What I want is...
Cuma kejujuran dalam perhubungan...
Only honesty in this relationship...
Jika itu tiada...
If it's not there...
Apalah ertinya...
What's the point...
Penantian ini hanya sia-sia...
This waiting is all for nothing...
