People Are Strange

Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
People are strange is when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
Yeah
People are strange is when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
People Are Strange
Brave Combo's 'People Are Strange' stands as a defining track within the band's expansive catalog of psychedelic and krautrock-inspired recordings. Released in the late 1970s, the song exemplifies the group's signature approach, blending intricate guitar work with a driving, hypnotic rhythm section that characterizes their broader discography. The composition reflects the era's fascination with Eastern influences and experimental soundscapes, creating an immersive listening experience that has cemented the track's status as a staple of the genre. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to evoke a sense of cosmic wonder and social commentary without relying on explicit lyrical narratives, allowing the music itself to tell the story of a shifting cultural landscape.
