Cheraderama
The Legendary Pink Dots Lyrics


Colliding in the stroboscope... Yes, now you see me, now you don't.
Tonight I'm dressed in black, I mourn the death of colour. Hopeless,
crying in my wine through happy hour; trace the lines that crawl across
my face and round my eyes. Watch the ballerinas fly on powder clouds
through six dimensions, seeing just the patterns on the wall. Cold eyes
searching for a space that's warm enough to take them through the night.
There's only black & white. Express. We never touch, we only press.
Can taste the desperation in your breath, I swear that I'll protect you if
you'd only look into my eyes. Choose your masks and raise your armour. Eyes
down for Cheraderama!

The Legendary Pink Dots are a Netherlands-based band formed in August 1980 in the UK who, although distinctly underground, have been musically influential over the years. The band name was derived from pink dots of nail varnish on the piano in their squat, where founding members Edward and April lived. The band has as its focal point vocalist Edward Ka-Spel, who is, along with Phil "The Silverman" Knight, one of the original remaining members of the band.

The band name was derived from pink dots of nail varnish on the piano in their squat, where founding members Edward and April lived. The band has as its focal point vocalist Edward Ka-Spel, who is, along with Phil "The Silverman" Knight, one of the original remaining members of the band. In the mid eighties the band resettled in the Netherlands, where they still reside today. Apart from Edward and Phil, the line-up has gone through many changes. Members such as Ryan Moore, a Canadian bass player, who joined in 1991 after the recordings of the Last Man to Fly with the Tear Garden (he joined as a session musician), went on to form their own labels and musical projects. See Twilight Circus and M Records. Their music is nothing if not original and it is difficult to categorise, but comparisons may be drawn with bands like Pink Floyd and Can.

Their sound has been described as an amalgamation of psychedelic rock, industrial, synth-pop and avant-garde. They have released over 40 records and continuously tour the world.

Members of the band have also collaborated with Nurse With Wound, The Dresden Dolls,Jarboe,HNAS,Jim O'Rourke,Skinny Puppy's cEvin Key, forming The Tear Garden. Key also appears on the 1994 album 9 Lives to Wonder.

Hi Christa. Thanks to the virtual technology your response came straight to my email😉 i know what u mean. Some music like LPD or DCD can affect our emotional state very deeply. Sometimes i’m molesting myself with songs that evoke very strong feelings and sometimes make me even feel depressed but unable to stop listening to them, it’s like addiction. I don’t know if you have heard of a russian band called Kino?? Their music is so beautiful but at the same time make me feel really sad. Greetings

Awe, same as I♡ Sometimes I cannot listen, for some reason it's heartbreaking. I remind myself I'm still that person I miss! I want to spend some time reflecting on this..I really doubt you'll see this comment 5yrs after you posted, so this is a diary entry. From CBP🖤🩰

magnificent...so unusual..i love its psychodelic nature...anyway.."chose yours masks and raise your armour"..

Luv krafft

This has to be in my top 5 LPD songs. With over thirty albums, it is kinda pointless to narrow it down. Just doing it for the uninitiated. so my top 5 lpd songs are: 1. Madame Guillotine 2. Hotel X 3. Disturbance, and Cheraderama 4. As Long as it's Purple and Green 5. Casting the Runes, or Triple Moon Salute. The only thing I can say is that I have yet to hear another band that provides such a deep, textured body of music and sound.
