Shiver - Screaming Jets

Zack (CrimsonTiger15) is kinda obsessed with Aussies saying the word 'shivers' and it reminded me of this song called Shiver by the Screaming Jets. They are a band from Newcastle, NSW and they are pretty good, well I think so anyway. I found, a cover on Youtube, it wasn't bad but I couldn't find the original, which, in my opinion, is ten times better. Sooooo, I managed to look on imeem.com, after thinking about it but never getting around to it, I found it, to my surprise!!! Most overseas sites don't have much Australian music, and it's really disappointing.

The original Shiver by the Screaming Jets



I've been contemplating
Suicide
But it really doesn’t suit my style
So I think I’ll just act bored instead
To contain the blood I could have shed
She makes me feel so weary
My heart is really on its knees
But I keep a poker face so well That even my mother couldn’t tell
That my baby’s so vain
She is almost a mirror And the sound of her name
Send a permanent shiver
Down my spine
Down my spine
Well I keep her photograph against my heart
Cause in my life she plays
A starring part
Our love could hold on cigarettes
There is no room for these cheap regrets
She makes me feel so weary
My heart is really on its knees
But I keep a poker face so well
That even my mother couldn’t tell
That my baby’s so vain
She is almost a mirror
And the sound of her name
Send a permanent shiver
Down my spine
Down my spine
Sends a permanent shiver down my spine
