Start Wearing Purple by Gogol Bordello.
From the Ukraine, relocated in New York, Gogol Bordello keeps flashing in front of my ears. Gypsy punk extrordinaire Eugene Hutz co-starred with Elijah Wood in Everything is Illuminated, and the entire band is featured on screen and on the soundtrack.
A friend of mine has all of their records and I have been fortunate enough to hear them. Holy Ghost Tent Revival played a show at Studio B in Greensboro a few months ago, and played Start Wearing Purple while someone was changing a string.
Here are the lyrics and the chords. Good luck with the Ukrainian.
Start Wearing Purple by Gogol Bordello.
Am
Start wearing purple, wearing purple.
……………………………………..E7
Start wearing purple for me now.
All your sanity and wits, they will all vanish,
………………………………………..Am
I promise, it’s just a matter of time.
So yeah, start wearing purple, wearing purple
Start wearing purple for me now
All your sanity and wits, they will all vanish
I promise, it’s just a matter of time
I met you were a twenty and I was twenty
But thought that some years from now
A purple little little lady will be perfect
For dirty old and useless clown
So yeah, start wearing purple, wearing purple
Start wearing purple for me now
All your sanity and wits, they will all vanish
I promise, it’s just a matter of time
I know it all from Diogenis to Foucault
From Lozgechkin to Paspartu
I ja kljanus obostzav dva paltza
Schto muzika poshla ot Zvukov Mu!
So yeah, start wearing purple, wearing purple
Start wearing purple for me now
Start wearing purple for me now!
All your sanity and wits, they will all vanish
I promise, it’s just a matter of time
So Fio-Fio-Fioletta! Etta! Va-va-va-vaja dama ti moja!
Eh podayte name karetu, votetu, i mi poedem k ebenjam!
So yeah, start wearing purple, wearing purple
Start wearing purple for me now
All your sanity and wits, they will all vanish
I promise, it’s just a matter of time

“The Junior League Band is an old-time inspired rock band fronted by the Georgia grown banjo, vocalist, Lissy Rosemont.

Around a year ago, Molly McGinn ventured into our kitchen with a small outfit she hustled together from local musicians which she fondly called her “Buster Dillys.”
Over the course of the following 15 months or so she encountered Molly Miller and together with Kasey Horton they formed Amelia’s Mechanics, very quickly releasing their first album, [...]
