Versus

Versus is an American indie rock band formed in 1990 by Richard Baluyut, Fontaine Toups and Edward Baluyut in New York City. Richard and Fontaine were to remain the two core members throughout the band's history. The band was noted for their marriage of indie pop songwriting and vocal harmonies to the "loud-soft" dynamics of grunge and alternative rock. They were also noted for their proficient and disciplined musicianship and for their credo of "meat, sports and rock", neither of which had much currency in the early 1990s American indie scene. They named themselves after the Mission of Burma album Vs. more »

Mr. Demille, I am ready for my closeup
Picture perfect, you can see my love is too much
Hang me in the Louvre, I'm Mona Lisa
I'm shiny and glamorous, baby
Pretty is abysmal to me
Mr. Demille, I am ready for my closeup
Picture perfect, I know my love is too much
Hang me in the Louvre, I'm Mona Lisa
I'm shiny and glamorous, baby
Pretty is abysmal to me
Pretend that I am a canvas and you are the Da Vinci
Or I can be your night sky, Van Gogh in your lifetime, honey
You can see that I am fine even when I am broken
After all, I'm just another voice that you hear but never listen
My people call it resilient, I call it carelessly caring
But who gives a damn when the world's on fire as long as you're winning, baby?
Mr. Demille, I am ready for my closeup
Picture perfect, you can see my love is too much
Hang me in the Louvre, I'm Mona Lisa
I'm shiny and glamorous, baby
Pretty is abysmal to me
Mr. Demille, I am ready for my closeup
Picture perfect, I know my love is too much
Hang me in the Louvre, I'm Mona Lisa
I'm shiny and glamorous, baby
Pretty is abysmal to me
You wanna live a life in peace without ever feeling haunted
You only want to see the end once it's a painting
Don't you know that a part of the world is dying endlessly?
How can you love if you don't feel pain? Is it love if it's not worth fighting for?
The traumas and avalanche, calamitous flood
Never ending but I'm still standing
It's a crime to feel the loss
Don't cry, it'll form a Tsunami
Mr. Demille, I am ready for my closeup
Picture perfect, you can see my love is too much
Hang me in the Louvre, I'm Mona Lisa
I'm shiny and glamorous, baby
Pretty is abysmal to me
Mr. Demille, I am ready for my closeup
Picture perfect, I know my love is too much
Hang me in the Louvre, I'm Mona Lisa
I'm shiny and glamorous, baby
Pretty is abysmal to me
Toast one last glass, just keep on dancing 'til the nightfalls
I am a masterpiece, you make me feel alone
Toast one last glass, just drink 'til you've reached the end of the bottle
I feel alive in CHAOS, stability while unstable
Mr. Demille, I am ready for my closeup
Picture perfect, you can see my love is too much
Hang me in the Louvre, I'm Mona Lisa
Mr. Demille, I am ready for my closeup
Picture perfect, I know my love is too much
Hang me in the Louvre, I'm Mona Lisa
I'm shiny and glamorous, baby
Pretty is abysmal to me
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready for my close-up
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready for my close-up
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready for my close-up
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready for my close-up
Mr. Demille, I am ready for my close-up
