Echo Beach

Martin McHale, jamming in the hits.

I know it's out of fashion and a trifle untrue But I can't help it, I'm a romantic fool It's a habit of mine to watch the sun go down On Echo Beach, I watch the sun go down My job is very boring, I'm an office clerk The only thing that helps me pass the time away Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach someday On silent summer evening, the sky's alive with lights.

A building in the distance, it's a realistic sight.

On Echo Beach, waves make the only sound.

On Echo Beach, there's not a soul around.

I spend my time at work My job is very boring, I'm an office quirk The only thing that helps me pass the time away Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach some day Echo Beach, far away in time

Echo Beach, far away in time Echo Beach, far away in time But the guys were in the street.

They were ballin' in the street.

Hell yeah.

Echo Beach, baby.

That's right.

Brought to you by Cal Tire.

of.

Then Echo Beach, Martha and the Muffins from 1980.

Or 80, rather.

1980.

Yeah, I mean, that's fair enough.

I mean, I think it was 79 that Regatta de Blanc came out, wasn't it? I was still at school and, you know, it was just classic pop alongside, you know, Echo Beach and all those other numbers.

God, we loved it.

So did you at that stage, had you started playing any musical instruments at that point in your life?

I know it's out of fashion, I'm a trifle uncool But I can't help it, I'm a romantic fool It's a habit of mine, to

watch the sun go On Echo Beach I watch the sun go down From nine

to five I have to spend my time at work My job is very boring, I'm an office clerk The only thing that helps me pass the time away Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach on day

Silent summer evenings, the skies are white like blood.

A building in the distance,

surrealistic sights.

On Echo Beach, we make the only sound.

On Echo Beach, there's not a soul around.

Oh, my God.

Who sings the tune to Echo Beach?

Beastie Boys.

Beach Boys.
