The tdBt Band, unexpected quatuor gathering tdBt on synths, effects and rythm, Totof on the keys, Nanos playing bass and guitar, MacFit guitar, bass, percussion, jokes and OrdiBaby, etc. This bunch of musicians works seriously for months now, never forgetting to have fun, and so writes some lunatic radical pop, or electronified soup :/ Most important part are the breaks and glitches that are totally abusives give not the ears much rest, but unify the sound in a partial chaos... What it don't mean a thing ? Yeah I know...

tdBt & the garys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And Joanie says that Debbie's out of reach
I called the operator, she put me on hold
I keep cryin' out for Cathy
She's got me by the soul
Cause she's out of reach, whoo!
Every single Friday night
When I want to take her in my arms, she's never there
Groovy girls make love at the beach
And Joanie says that, that Debbie's out of reach
I called the operator, she put me on hold
I keep crying out for Cathy
She's got me by the soul
Hey! She's out of reach, whoo!
Every single Friday night, I'm not kiddin' now
She's out of reach, whoo!
When I want to take her in my arms, she's not there, sir!
She's out of reach, whooo!
Every single Friday night, I'm not kiddin' now
I said that she's out of reach, whoo!
When I want to hold her in my arms, hey!
I took her to the dance last Friday night
I said, just wait there, I'll be right back
She said, Gary, that sounds fine
When I came back, I told her that I fell in love with her
She said, Gary, fallin' in love, she said fallin' in love ain't too cool
I started to cry
I started to cry
I said I started screamin', I started screamin', I started screamin', I started screamin' I started screamin'
Hey, she's out of reach, whoo!
Every time I try to hold her, I try to hold her
She's so out of reach, she's so out of reach
When I kiss her, when I kiss her, hey!
The lyrics of "Beach" by tdBt & the garys depict a story of unrequited love and longing. The singer, Gary, is infatuated with a girl named Cathy who he believes is out of his reach. The song begins with a mention of "groovy girls" making love at the beach, symbolizing the carefree and passionate nature of young love. However, Joanie, presumably a friend of Gary's, informs him that Debbie, someone else they know, is also out of reach, highlighting the theme of longing for unattainable love.
Gary tries to reach out by calling the operator, perhaps seeking guidance or a connection to Cathy. However, he is put on hold, emphasizing his frustration and desperation. He keeps crying out for Cathy, as she has captured his soul, indicating the depth of his feelings for her. The chorus repeats the phrase "she's out of reach" to emphasize the unattainability of Cathy and the anticipation of Friday night, a time when Gary hopes to connect with her.
The second verse continues with the same themes, reiterating the frustration of Gary's unrequited love. He laments that when he wants to hold her in his arms or kiss her, she is never there. The lyrics suggest that Gary is willing to do anything to be with Cathy, even expressing his emotions through crying and screaming.
Overall, "Beach" portrays the emotional journey of longing, unrequited love, and the desire for connection with someone perceived as unattainable. It highlights the emotional rollercoaster and internal struggle that one can experience when chasing after someone who seems out of reach.
