Inside - Oingo Boingo | Boi-Ngo Unreleased 1987

Reuploaded with improved sound. Still the same source as previously so still a bit rough/flat sounding, but now slightly better mastered.
Inside - Another essential unreleased song recorded for Boi-Ngo that sadly went unreleased. Like most the cut songs from Boi-Ngo, it's a little more introspective. The running order on the source tape (not bootlegged by me) suggests Inside was originally intended to end the album.
An earlier mix exists here: • Inside (Early Rough Mi...

LYRICS:- When you feel like you are fading Like a ghost out in the sun When your mind needs some persuading When the world seems like it's dead When your eyes feel like they turned around inside your head When you fear no one around you When you cry and nobody comes When you say 'this is my treasure' When you say 'this is my life' When you fly down and spread your arms into the sky Inside, something is empty Inside, won't somebody care You're nailed to the cross It's the whole world's loss and nobody's sad Inside, something is missing Inside, something is bad Built yourself a wall Oh and it surely will fall when nobody's there When you scream and no one will listen When you find your friends are gone Will you hide in resolution Will your pride cover your eyes Will you laugh as the whole parade passes you by? Inside, something is empty Inside, won't somebody care You're nailed to the cross It's the whole world's loss and nobody's sad Oh inside, yeah something is missing Inside, something is bad You built yourself a wall Oh and it surely will fall when nobody's there Inside, something is missing Inside, something is missing

"Outrageous" made it to the album but this was left out... Go Figure!

[@MrTeton]

Outrageous is a great song but yeah they should have definitely kept this

[@wowitsdom]

And where did all my friends go 😪

[@nighttimevideo]

'My Life' and 'Outrageous' are two of my least favourite songs from OB's backcatalogue. Nothingburgers of songs. Inside and Mama deserved to be on that album instead.

[@MephProduction]

@@nighttimevideo nah, loved those songs, no song needs removing there was room for all of them

[@amandirun]

freaky style vro ❤👅

[@Heartofjoya]

Good last track choice

[@bahza_haha]

Heck yea

[@stillchill0]

nice

[@dotcomgamingd5564]

Love this song! Definitely would've preferred it over "We Close Our Eyes". Not to say that one is bad but it's definitely my least favorite song on the album.

[@dotcomgamingd5564]

Personally though I think "Mama" would've been a better closer.

[@user-ye3ot2nb8z]

agreed "we close our eyes" feels kinda out of place in this album

[@nou7009]

yeah, I personally think that we close our eyes fits in dateott much better

[@nyago7556]

i really really love this one !! insidee... something is empty (real)

[@genogeno6643]

smooth

[@musicsoluble]

Nice Number!

[@NeonNoodle-v4g]

[@consumeobama5770]

[@GremlinJohnny]

hearing this for the first time and i was thinking it sounds kinda like something you'd hear earlier on. i can see why you thought that
