Jason Baker Excellent overview of the output of the Rename project. YDDML is still to this day a song I just can't get enough of! Favorite track: You Don't Deserve My Love.

reactive1 I've been a huge fan of RENAME since the first album, "Culture", debuted fourteen years ago. This "best of" collection represents what perfectly crafted synthpop sounds like in the 21st Century. If you aren't already a RENAME fan, buy this - you will be!

Reciprocal 05:44
"Reciprocal" Too bad Too late Your mind’s a dyson sphere Let’s reciprocate Come on Come on Come on Come on Isn’t it fascinating ? We should be celebrating This wonderful world There’s a huge party But guess who's not invited Wherever you go Do as you’re told New boss same owners No way out Wherever you are It’s a bipolar world Stuck in a cage You want out Come on Come on

Around Around What have you done to me ? My love is precious Do you think you can save it ? You speed up my heartbeat You loop my thoughts My feelings : Around around You light my soul on fire You make me sin You make me fly much higher You let me spin Around around Oh no, Oh no, You make me lose my mind What have you done to me ? No one but you can satisfy me You speed up my heartbeat You loop my thoughts My feelings : Around around You light my soul on fire You make me sin You make me fly much higher You let me spin Around around

Firewall 03:41
Firewall social life so you are what you post then be careful what you say don’t forget - they save everything play the game don’t look forward look back to the past that was so much fun and when love was the answer of everythng done or denied you were my breaktrough true love personifed because the world can seem so large for such an old heart and my fear is too much you’re my all you’re my love you’re my firewall you’re my love you’re my all modern life say it loud , spread the word they won’t listen to what you fear don’t forget - they’ve created this blue box world in which we play a part of naivety like a child not knowing what’s good for us of everythng done or denied you were my breakthrough true love personifed because the world can seem so large for such an old heart and my fear is too much you’re my all you’re my love you’re my firewall you’re my love you’re my all

Never Stop! 03:50
Never Stop! It's the smell of hairspray And the hypnotic disco ball And the pulsing music That lures me to the dance hall All the moving shadows And the spinning ceiling fan And the pounding rhythm All makes me who I am I don't want A whole lot! Give me pop! Let me move! Let me dance! Never stop! Give me pop! Keep it hot! Never stop! Oh no - Never - Never Stop! Oh no - Never - Never Stop! Oh no - Never - Never Stop! Oh no - Never - Never Stop! It is pure anticipation As I wait for Saturday night I'm putting on my make-up Everything must look just right It doesn't really matter Who I see when I arrive We will move together The music makes us feel so alive! I don't want ........

Maybe Later I Will Fall The time of not being close is over We can talk about private things We shouldn't stop when we've just begun No one will know what we share It's making me mad There's a bomb inside my head All I need is the answer To the questions that haunt me I'm sitting in my room Starring at the wall I fell in love and maybe later I will fall I'm sitting in my room Starring at the wall I fell in love and maybe later I will fall The time of not being close is over We can talk about secret needs We shouldn't say that we do some things wrong Whatever their accusation is It's making me mad There's a bomb inside my head All I need is the answer To the questions that haunt me I'm sitting in my room Starring at the wall I fell in love and maybe later I will fall I'm sitting in my room Starring at the wall I fell in love and maybe later I will fall When you love someone You've got the power to believe But confiding can be fatal We must both learn to trust ourselves I'm sitting in my room Starring at the wall I fell in love and maybe later I will fall I'm sitting in my room Starring at the wall I fell in love and maybe later I will fall

The Boxer 04:49
The Boxer flying to the east to ease some pain watch the media to tell us what's going on there is a man who wants this job so much they call him the boxer he could be a good man in the clutch no he couldn't he just thinks he could it's a fake movement ! let's get over it identified justified calculate the profit ! get over it ! every little gesture makes impression every word you'll speak will peak so strong we really can't talk to you right now they've hacked your smartphone somehow tonal footsteps make a sad melody territorial visions chapters of bigotry we were so close too close for our foes no cameras for a speech you're their critical overdose the boxer depends on strength for the winning punch eye to eye unjustified facts denied calculate the chaos get over it ! the boxer he knows how to loose the boxer still wise enough to choose .... another option

Don't You Shock Me She has left me alone And I don't know what to do I'm depressed I'm distressed Do I need a psycho-analyst ? It's a shame It's a shock Such a painful mental block I'm a man He's a boy And soon a laughing stock Don't you shock me When you're young You have dreams And ideals Someone steals You speak words without sense Shuffle cards In a game of chance It's a shame It's a shock Such a painful mental block I'm a man He's a boy And soon a laughing stock So don't you shock me Don't you shock me So don't you shock me Don't you shock me Love pain is bothersome Look what I¥ve become Craving for your caress My life is tristesse So don't you shock me Don't you shock me...

The Hack 04:12
The Hack It took years of my life And all the hopes of my heart But with a few key strokes You ripped it all apart You reached all of my friends And breached the fortress of trust You left it all in ruins For your petty lust Is there any limit to the lives you've bought and sold? You're just a hack A certified nobody You're just a hack That hurts everybody You might wear a white shirt And flaunt a college degree But none of those things Will earn respect from me You're telling yourself You'll always make it through But one of these days They'll be coming for you Is there any limit to the lives you've bought and sold? You're just a hack A certified nobody You're just a hack That hurts everybody It's because you can't see You'll never look in their eyes And because you're not heard As you're living your lies

Play In The Rain I can say it without any hesitation My knowing you has stood me on my feet You side-step my unfounded reputation Willing to take the bitter with the sweet (Willing to take the bitter with the sweet) I want to go play in the rain Where the cold drops wash out the pain I want to go play in the rain I want to go play in the rain When my life seems so mundane I want to go play in the rain There's a sinister side that's hidden deep inside me The only one that can hold it down is you Please don't ever leave or walk behind me I wouldn't know where to go or what to do (Wouldn't know where to go or what to do) I want to go play in the rain Where the cold drops wash out the pain I want to go play in the rain I want to go play in the rain When my life seems so mundane I want to go play in the rain The dark clouds in my life try to surround me Though I should feel fear, I feel relief Your refreshing arms like waves will wrap around me Leaving no more space to fill with grief (Leaving no more space to fill with grief) I want to go play in the rain Where the cold drops wash out the pain I want to go play in the rain .....

Limelight 2K14 We go out to the castle Where famous people stamp their feet At Meet & Greet I know they're telling lies behind our well paid backs It doesn't matter, 'cause we shake their hands I don't know whether I'm wrong or right It's too important to appear tonight 'Cause the guest list's a hit We're included and late A glass of champagne Before I'll seal the trade 'Cause I want to be where the stars are bright Someone sunburnt by limelight The wise men I talk to kiss a billboard bunny They laugh when I smile but I wasn't funny They feature some faces to make young girls shiver "Success is golden / creativity's silver" You damp your fingers, you read the conditions Damp them again, I'm sure we'll pay our visions In their mind they've got the clause "Rearrange" But Darling I swear, I won't change 'Cause I want to be where the stars are bright Someone sunburnt by limelight Limelight

In The Future You are the future And sometimes it's hard To carry the load for you. I will remember That this is my job You're the reason I do what I do Look to the future It can be a good life We can hope for a much better place If you remember That I give it to you With a loving, protective embrace I can't control it all The way this world keeps moving on The politicians and decisions That can all go wrong But I can do my best To shine a light ahead of you 'Cause you are the future And I want to help you make it through In the future – In the future – In the future – In the future This is your moment And I know you feel scared There are people out there to fear I will protect you From the worst of the worst 'Till the best of the best can appear Look to the future And don't give up hope I will catch you if you should fall down Then give you a moment To catch your own breath And go much higher on the rebound I look to the future It's a dream that we both can share I'll always remember You're the one that carried me there

Avalanche Of Fear when the night is dark
 and my sleep not deep enough opening my eyes
 I scan the stars in the heavens above then I wonder to myself
 who am I, what’s my purpose ? different thoughts run through my mind never felt so blind an alien emotion (what is it ? )
as if I lose myself (what is it ?) grainy images (what is it ?) I fear the truth I look back on my youth from the pages of my diary I was able to think 
and use the lobus frontalis so I wonder to myself
 why mankind became so digital ? the most beautiful things in life are now buried alive in a cloud progression (how is it ?) if we lose ourselves (how is it ?) renaissance (how is it ?)
 the code for peace will we ever break it ? how ? (what is it ?)
 that brought us here (what is it ?)
 we need to hear
 (what is it ?)
 won’t you stop to consider (let’s stop this) avalanche of fear (what is it ?)
 that brought us here (what is it ?)
 we need to hear (we’re passing)
 the last frontier (we’re not drowning by an) avalanche of fear

Ex-L. 03:40
EX-L. Pose your question I will answer You don't believe a single word I'll say My heart will be speaking to you You won't care and break it anyway (Ex-L.) We're not meant to be (Good friends) So painful but true (Ex-L.) We're not meant to be (Good friends) No more me and you Love is holy Love is good I never knew the meaning of tragedy But you've been a good teacher to me You will say that I was too kind The truth is I was too blind (Ex-L.) We're not meant to be (Good friends) So painful but true... Oh Honey, you won't ease the pain Save your promises they'll be in vain All I needed was security But your vampish ways have ruined me No more money will change my mind Every gift you gave has made me blind And now I open my eyes and see Your vampish ways have ruined me (Ex-L.) We're not meant to be (Good friends) So painful but true...

Touch 03:56
Touch touch touch touch so so much touch touch touch so so much you do it again you fill my room with vapor senses play tricks on me logical thinking ends here my hand guids a pen on a blank sheet of paper pure pop poetry transfer peer to peer touch touch touch (I need you) so so much (a tender) touch touch touch (could change my life) so so much (I want to) touch touch touch (I need you) so so much (a tender) touch touch touch (I love you) so so much you do it again you fill my world with magic bodies like sculptures only the good thoughts survive show me a good face life´s greekly tragic full of emotions gathered in a hive touch touch touch ... a changing perspective once passive now active like a dog locked away in a hutch I long for a human touch touch touch touch ... let yourself go perfection means boredom open your mind for sensual wisdom

Who Needs The World Who needs the world if we have each other you know I don't like work and I don't love the money and I don't love the jokes I get the punch-line but they're just not funny darkness comes too soon I'm howling at the moon I don't know what I'm becoming when the fears take over and my mind starts running Who needs the world if we have each other Who needs the world if we have each other the daily grind is hard and makes me a slave into the mundane tasks fulfilling the demands of this day and age I think I'll stay at home and lock myself in a room I'm hiding under the sheets waiting for you can you please come soon Who needs the world if we have each other Who needs the world if we have each other

I Only Wanted To Be An Orchestra redeeming all those bad bills they need to be paid mainstreaming the hardware decides who's hot and who's not daydreaming co-existance in a valueless biz no scheming whoever signes me gets the full me how can you play me and not pay for it ? I'm not a public benefit never found the perfect formula I only wanted to be an orchestra let's be cool and turn the radio off such violence and nonsense in almost every word never tried to be a superstar I only wanted to be an orchestra songwriting I clamber on the music scale sheet lightning energy hidden in a cloudy me I am thankful for nice words feeding my heart I am hateful when I see the misuse of power and law how can you play me and not pay for it ? I'm not a public benefit never found the perfect formula I only wanted to be an orchestra let's be cool and turn the TV off such violence and nonsense in almost every scene never tried to be a superstar I only wanted to be an orchestra credits
