We get our energy from all these flashing lights Flash! Flash! Baby! Flash! Flash! Sleeping through the day so we can party through the night Don't need the sun to make us right Hop in the limo and pop open champagne Splash! Splash! Party! Splash! Splash! Cause baby we are rock stars and we run this game We run this game and we run it tight Keep the bass pumping and the dancefloor packed Cause we're going out tonight and we're never coming back! This is Forever Midnight! This is Forever Midnight! This is Forever Midnight! This is Forever Midnight! Step on the strip and the cameras flash away Flash! Flash! Baby! Flash! Flash! This is the party life, this is a normal day We're getting up when the sun goes down Step on the dancefloor and shake it 'til they close Cash! Cash! We want your cash! Cash! Cause baby we are rock stars and everybody knows This is the Total Ghost sound This is Forever Midnight! Take me out! This is Forever Midnight! Let's g out! This is Forever Midnight! Take me out! This is Forever Midnight! This is Forever Midnight! Take me out! This is Forever Midnight! Let's go out! This is Forever Midnight! Take me out! This is Forever Midnight! We hit the town every night When you see us its a sight When we step out of the limo, We are apple take a bite Designer shades and threads We're always turning heads When we dance into the morning While you're sleeping in your beds We see the girl, make a kiss Can not pass up all of this This is Forever Midnight This is forever bliss Record play, DJ spin All the clubs let us in The party never stops So let us begin! This is Forever Midnight! Take me out! This is Forever Midnight! Let's go out! This is Forever Midnight! Take me out! This is Forever Midnight! Let's go out! This is Forever Midnight! Take me out! This is Forever Midnight! Let's go out! This is Forever Midnight! Take me out! This is Forever Midnight! Let's go out!

Too Fast for the Autobahn 03:18
lyrics

On the Autobahn from Dresden On the way to a gig in Berlin We drove too fast to pay the toll 'Cause when you're rock and roll like we are In a prototype Lamborghini car You have a tendency to lose control We got pulled over by a ladycop She was serious and seriously hot She wrote a ticket for 1000 Pounds She said "There is a way That you don't have to pay You have to take me on the town" we said We drive too fast! Too fast for the Autobahn! Too fast for the Autobahn! We drive too fast! Too fast for the Autobahn! Too fast for the Autobahn! Pass the line up to the nightclub door And straight on to the discotheque floor She said she wants to dance until the sunrise She took the ticket out of our pocket Tore it to pieces and then she dropped it And then we looked into her eyes and said We drive too fast! Too fast for the Autobahn! Too fast for the Autobahn! We drive too fast! Too fast for the Autobahn! Too fast for the Autobahn! And we were Dancing and dancing And dancing and dancing And moving and moving And moving and moving Dancing and dancing And dancing and dancing And party and party And party and party Dancing and dancing And dancing and dancing And moving and moving And moving and moving Dancing and dancing And dancing and dancing And party and party And party and OW! We drive too fast! Too fast for the Autobahn! Too fast for the Autobahn! We drive too fast! Too fast for the Autobahn! Too fast for the Autobahn!

JungleCat 02:26
lyrics

By the light of the moon She moves She grooves She soothes your soul You lose control Fast like jaguar Sleek like panther If love is the question She is the answer to to your dreams Amazing things She's a JungleCat and No one can tame her She's the wild one. She's intrusive She will run away So no one can blame her She's a carnivore. She's in elusive When you're walking all alone She's gonna find you When you hear the cat call She will remind you That she's faster, smarter, hotter, And better than you When you see her on the cat walk There is nothing you can do You can run and run and run and run As fast as you can But when she catches you She's gonna make you a man She's got the glowing eyes And they glow in the dark She's got the sharp teeth And they go in your heart Have you ever danced with the cat In the moonlight? Have you been caught up In the cat fight? She will take you down, shake you down Tear you to bits You are just another victim On her list She doesn't know your name And she does not care She will take you up a tree She will leave you up there Just when you think you're done You will find She's gonna come back For a second time time! She's a JungleCat and No one can tame her She's the wild one. She's on the prowl She will run away So no one can blame her She's gonna pounce. She can growl She's a JungleCat and No one can tame her Her speed is fast. Her eyes are green She will run away So no one can blame her Her claws are sharp. She can't be seen

SAPCE STATION International Space Station Floating 'round in the air Floating 'round in the air We have made a decision To do a concert up there Do a concert up there So we called NASA/Just to ask 'em If we could have a shuttle rocket machine But when they said that it was against the law We ask them "what do you mean?!" They can not tell us no No! They can not tell us no to go Oh oh oh! 'Cause space is the next place We're gonna do our show Oh Oh Oh! We took all of our keyboards And loaded them in the jet We loaded them in the jet Then we revved up the engines As high as they could get As high as they could get We flew through the clouds and through the ozone And right up to the Space Station door When they came to let us in They didn't know what was in store! They can not tell us no No! They can not tell us no to go Oh oh oh! 'Cause space is the next place We're gonna do our show Oh Oh Oh! They can not tell us no No! They can not tell us no to go Oh oh oh! 'Cause space is the next place We're gonna do our show Oh Oh Oh! If NASA says no then we'll do it on our own We'll build our own rocket and we'll go to space alone If NASA says no then we'll do it on our own We'll build our own rocket and we'll go to space alone The Space Station's doing nothing up in orbit But floating So this is why we are promoting you to come up to our show. If NASA says no then we'll do it on our own We'll build our own rocket and we'll go to space alone! They can not tell us no No! They can not tell us no to go Oh oh oh! 'Cause space is the next place We're gonna do our show Oh Oh Oh! They can not tell us no No! They can not tell us no to go Oh oh oh! 'Cause space is the next place We're gonna do our show Oh Oh Oh!

about

“Space Lightning” combines two of America’s favorite pastimes: Space, and Lightning, resulting in 11 tracks of dizzying, surging electro synth sorcery. The crisp, clean sound production crushes dance floors in its wake, powered by neon-hot synths, burning bass lines, and lyrics that sound as authentically German as Tom Cruise did in “Valkyrie”. Space Lightning is like a time machine. From the first track, Einführung ("introduction"in German), the listener will be taken back to a better time, when it was okay to party in moon shoes and garish acid-washed jeans.



Chön and Biktor are the German wunderkinds behind “Total Ghost”, which is riding the Kraut-wave tsunami that’s about to hit America.
This hypnotique electronique brings us sounds inspired by 80’s“Kraftwerk”, with a Euro trash glam sensibility inspired by trips to the local thrift store. With their music already in rotation on German radio and videos featured on Canal + in Paris, the only destinations left to explore are the discotheques of America.
With their first full length LP release, “Space Lightning”, Total Ghost has evolved from its humble origins as a fake internet band into a real band that plays in front of live audiences—and likes it. With multiple shows already under their belt, they have perfected the alchemy of combining self-parody with the dance beats of their wax melting tracks. It’s music that rockets beyond its gimmick, and into the stratosphere of a giant space party (with lightning).
