Gravity's Rainbow

About Gravity's Rainbow

"Gravity's Rainbow" is a song by British act Klaxons which appears on their debut album Myths of the Near Future. It is named after Thomas Pynchon's novel. The song was first released on Angular Records as a double A-side with "The Bouncer" in March 2006 and was limited to 500 copies on 7" vinyl only. In September 2006, it was released on 12" vinyl with three remixes of the track. It reached a peak position of number 35 on the UK Singles Chart. A re-recorded version of the track was re-released in 2007, with a remix from Soulwax, a new Erol Alkan-produced track "Electrickery" and a live version of the track. For the re-release of "Gravity's Rainbow", the band reshot the music video. There are two videos for this track, the original was shot in a basement using props belonging to the band members and took in total 72 hours to complete. During the babies scene in the original video, an album cover from Frankie Valli and his band the Four Seasons is shown; Klaxons later covered their track "The Night" as a B-side of their single "It's Not Over Yet". The new version of "Gravity's Rainbow" was made to accompany the release of the new recording of the single and includes scenes reminiscent of those in the original. This version is also one of only two Klaxons videos that feature their drummer Steffan Halperin. more »

Come on with me through ruined lipglock
Across Tangian deserts, we'll flock
Madcap Medusa, flank my foghorn
We'll change four seasons with our first born

All ships of sense on hyper ocean
All kites of chaos, still in motion
My culture vulture, such a dab hand
I'll steal you from the year 4000

Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
I'll always be there, oh, oh, my future love
I'll always be there for you, my future love

Your tears leave trails of [Incomprehensible]
Autonoma, the [Incomprehensible]
Most crippled lines that I can't get to
You'd slip through time but I won't let you

Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
I'll always be there, oh, oh, my future love
I'll always be there for you, my future love

Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
I'll always be there, oh, oh, my future love
I'll always be there for you, my future love

Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
I'll always be there, oh, oh, my future love
I'll always be there for you, my future love

Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
Come with me, come with me, we'll travel to infinity
I'll always be there, oh, oh, my future love
I'll always be there for you, my future love
