No Sense

About No Sense

"No Sense" is a 1983 song from Australian rock band Cold Chisel, and appeared on the album Twentieth Century. Released as double A-side single with "Hold Me Tight" it reached number 14 in the Australian charts. Receiving more radio airplay of the two songs on the single, it appeared on Cold Chisel's early greatest hits compilations. It has been described as being reggae or "almost ska."The lyrics of the song were inspired by a fan from Wollongong who would send Barnes letters declaring her love and occasionally threatening suicide. Toby Creswell said it featured Barnes' "customarily direct rock song approach, underneath which a very odd keyboard part was placed and on top, a reggaefied guitar. Like so many songs on Twentieth Century, this track takes chances with the formula."The video was directed by Chilean artist Eduardo Guelfenbein, who had also done the artwork for the album and the picture sleeves. The video featured a slightly different intro to the song. more »

Mail arrives in the morning
I'm hoping for good news
Another letter from a girl that I don't know
Another letter full of no news

You don't tell me anything
You just go on and on
And you don't make no sense

You try to tell me that you love me
But we ain't never met
You try to say you're gonna be my one and only
But I wouldn't take no bet

You don't tell me anything
You just go on and on
And you don't make no sense
