After losing a demo contest on belgian alternative national radio Pure FM and receiving a true enthusiastic response, the two boys got more sure of themselves and decided to show the people what they are up to. In october 2005 they opened shyly for Saint Thomas at Brussels Botanique Club. A few month later, they are back as a support act for Belgian band Venus and The Tellers are truly another group, Ben and Charles show the arrogant talent of the ones that come from nowhere. Okay from nowhere indeed, but you have to reckon that they don’t show up holding anything in their hands...
Ben has a voice that gives you thrills as
Charles is taking care of all subtle acoustic arrangments, the Tellers fire at you with laidback ballads, melancholy tunes,...beauty.
Their third gig was at the Nuits Botanique festival in Brussels, they’ll play the Dour festival and a couple summer gigs around Europe.
They’ll have a 7-track-mini album available in june, lend them your ear... or even both...
(2) There is at least one pre-existing artist with this name, a power-pop/ pub rock group from Brisbane, Australia fronted by Damien Garvey. They released 2 albums, a cassette-only release in 1991, and CD "Flex" in 1992, and enjoyed a loyal local following.
MEMORY
The Tellers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
what I see is something incomplete
you're so battered, but I love you anyway
I laugh so much, when I'm on my own
I would like to hear you say,
a year or a decade is the same
I lost a part of you, underneath my feet
I thank the lord you are still here to accompany me
there will be a different time, on the same old watch
Oh, but many clockturns are still left,
present is the only thing we have
Oh how did I treat you ?
I'll care about you from the bottom to the top
'cause what remains of you is wonderful
The Tellers' song Memory is a nostalgic reflection on lost love and the memories that remain long after the relationship has ended. The lyrics describe the fading of lilacs, a symbol of a bygone season or time, and the disappearance of footsteps, suggesting that the past can never be recaptured. The singer has waited to see something significant happen, but all that remains are memories that haunt and remind him of what he has lost. The chorus highlights the theme of memory, with the repeated phrase "you are a memory" implying that the past lover is nothing more than a ghostly remnant of what used to be. The singer also muses on the ill-mannered ways of songs and lanes, suggesting that his memories are not always comforting, but instead are a mix of good and bad experiences.
Throughout the song, the singer reflects on his relationship and the moments he shared with his past lover. He talks of "night and days, summer and rain" and recalls the "queen and me," highlighting the idea that his lover was like royalty to him, and that their time together was precious. The final stanza has an interesting twist, with the singer questioning why he was rescued by his lover, and identifying himself as a "naughty boy" and her as a "Mandy girl." This suggests that their relationship may not have been entirely healthy, and that there were negative aspects to it.
Overall, Memory is a heartfelt song about lost love and the power of memories to both comfort and haunt us.
