Dieses Lied spielten sie, vier-, fünfmal am Tag, auf Radio Nostalgie, das wir nur bald nur deswegen so hysterisch hörten, weil sie immer wieder dieses Lied spielten, die Bee Gees, 1964, wie kann einem nur so ein Text einfallen, fragten wir uns, und warum spielt ein Sender an der Cote d'Azur bloß dieses Lied so oft?

I Started A Joke which started the whole world crying But I didn't see that the joke was on me, oh no I started to cry which started the whole world laughing Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me.

I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said 'Till I finally died which started the whole world living Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me

I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said 'Till I finally died which started the whole world living Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me Oh no that the joke was on me

Oh, das stammt von den Bee-Gees? Ich kenne die Coverversion von Vonda Shepard, die sie in einer Ally-McBeal-Folge singt. Ich mag ihn. Ad Astra

gibt es da nicht auch eine sehr gelungene version von faith no more?
