WALLFLOWER LYRICS
It’s hard to fall asleep
Without you next to me
I’m in way too deep this time
Please don’t say goodbye
It doesn’t feel right
Without you by my side I’ll die
I’ve been waiting all my life
For this one night
It’s only getting better
Since the day I met her
She wears my sweater
In California weather
I tell her all the time
She could be all mine
My little wallflower
I find her in my dreams
When I fall asleep
I hope she never leaves my bed
She’s the only one
She makes me feel so young
And I can see the sun again
I’ve been waiting all my life
For this one night
She makes me feel
Like I’m the only one there
The only one there
She makes me feel
Like I don’t have to be scared
Don’t have to be scared

[@slacktalites]

I am 37, goldfinger makes me feel alive. Thanks a lot.

[@adamrees400]

34 here and I feel the same

[@lamarrotems]

33, just thinking same exact thing. Kinda want to cry tho

[@BantulPride]

33 here

[@fwk32]

I am an age as well!

[@barrychuckle5565]

36. Are all their fans about the same age or what haha.

[@StingrayMM20]

When you least expect it, there comes Goldfinger and makes you 15 again. Incredible.

[@JeremyAmacherPunkrockin4220]

Ditto!!!

[@cameronmiltonvlogs8235]

I stiill remember when he made stalker

[@bonkerzhuntsdemons7993]

Seriously

[@33.3fm4]

Mike has been an absolute machine during the pandemic with putting out music. Respect.

[@juniorhilton1954]

Mike Herrera you mean? If yes, i agree with you. Im so impressed, he did a lot of music

[@slaur]

Agree with you on mike. But so has goldfinger. Both bands have impressed me durimg this bullshit.

[@slashismyhommie8182]

Why is Goldfinger doing the "band in a field" trope from early 2000s "scene" bands?

[@BikesAndBatallas]

@@slashismyhommie8182 Yeah, homie, they should have done it in a crowded farmer's market. Or maybe in a huge festival with thousands of people. I mean, I wonder why they did it outside. There's clearly no reason to do it outside, away from... indeed, at a distance from.... other human beings.

[@louiecmancuzo2903]

@@BikesAndBatallas HA!

[@robertpoole5652]

Goldfinger is the best Ska-Punk EVER! I love how the band has morphed into a supergroup now

[@fuck_youtube_handles]

its so interesting to me how in one of their albums one song can be totally ska not very rock and then immediately go really heavy on the next one

[@bobbydogbear1710]

It’s okay to be wrong. Streetlight Manifesto sends its love and 6 minute nonsense songs.

[@TheresaInAComa]

Thank you, Goldfinger for carrying us through the pandemic and bringing us a little joy and light in a dark time ❤❤❤🎉

[@fr33rid3r33]

Let's make 2021 *FREAKING AWESOME* ! Play it Goldfinger!

[@daveg7516]

Dam straight! 😳😊👌🏼

[@slopesgameroom]

Been listening to this album on loop since release, please get the vinyl released in the UK! those import charges and postage is killing me :P

[@sloppynyuszi]

Nice video on the bands that blew up through video games.

[@kerank4157]

Slope we've commented s bit back and forth on twitter (very little) but it's great to see you in here!!!

[@keirbourne5323]

I ended up paying the $18 of postage charges from the US, for the LP release. Well worth it imo. Love this album so much.

[@kevingreeman5602]

37 years old still sounds like the 4 albums that rocked

[@krashoutkory]

Miss you guys… remember loving this album when it came out

[@greenday10867]

Such an incredible band! Been listing to these guys since tony hawks Pro skater 1!

[@AlexRetroMusic]

Saaaaaame

[@thatthieff]

Same, but Grand Turismo 2--- which came out the same year as PrSk-1; hah.

[@sloppynyuszi]

I’m so old I bought Tony Hawk after learning their song is in the game. I love all that 90s third wave ska stuff!

[@suicidalroach4864]

Same

[@hubguy]

Pro Skater 4 for me. Glad they're still doing great today!

[@BrasilTrix]

So much yes to this!

[@Deeedayy]

that bassline is crazyy!! this song is so underrated.

[@DJAd_early_hardcore]

John and Mike = Dreamteam!

[@budhyprasetyo1238]

The vibes of the song will remind us about 2020/2021 pandemic years with all bless, happiness, sadness and disapoints we have. We will always remember this song.... Thank you Goldfinger

[@joepow8717]

So happy to see Charlie back in the band.

[@lizasolas1008]

this is the kind of band that can make a song that will help us kumbaya the f*** out of 2020 and any other crap day

[@karenreid6252]

Right?!

[@russellwhelan331]

i agree totally

[@riaranta3150]

And the award for greatest comment award goes to Liza 🤘🏻💯

[@farronmain6718]

When the world need them the most they return with this dank ass album!!! Love it

[@P1983sche]

Mike Herrera 👏🙌🤙👍 That bassline is 🔥

[@EldenShadow]

I can't believe that I just found this band only in 2020... Goldfinger is awesome! Keep rocking and save today's music, bring back the 2000's essence!

[@leebenp]

[@Midnightgooner69]

Tony hawks pro skater four is how I found these guys been listening ever since.. 27 now and still rocking these dudes

[@aidenneal6167]

I love the trumpet solo because it reminds me that goldfinger is still them

[@demagreg]

It's only getting better! Since the day I met her!

[@Alex-Defatte]

Why does this remind me of Blink with a horn section? Like Mark's vocals on all of California and Nine. And even the back up 'Whoa Ah Whoa Oh' part. Love the ultimate energy though keep playing forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@batmanarkhamcentral3149]

Feldmann was the producer on those albums, but personally I love the sound. I liked it on the blink albums and I love it on Goldfinger’s new albums

[@Alex-Defatte]

@@batmanarkhamcentral3149 That explains it. I wish either of them would have recorded with a different producer though. It's almost too similar. Nothings rough around the edges or experimental. It all sounds keyed up and perfect sounding. Almost like the vocals have no range. I can't explain it. Although they're pop punk bands, they're still 'punk' bands. They sound just over polished if that's a thing. But you know what I can shut up cos I'm still glad they're both still releasing music. Thanks for that fact. Cheers Bruce!

[@coreyjameshaims449]

Not going to lie; the Quarantine sessions are the soundtrack to my 2020 👍 Still plenty of time to announce your going to come play Slamdunk next year guys; new album..you know yoi want to 😘

[@BPRecordsUK]

[@filippooretti]

Such a great front man and song, congrats damnit

[@dankingjr.2088]

New Goldfinger videos may be the only good thing to come out of 2020.

[@musen8792]

なんなんすか？全然落ちぶれ感がない！ 長いゴールドフィンガーの歴史の中で曲も音も、メンバーも最強ですよ😎👍

[@nickjohnson5201]

[@justinrice2864]

2020 brought back emo, ska and pop punk. Wasn’t such a bad year after all.

[@fwk32]
