WEDDING BELLS (ARE BREAKING UP THAT OLD GANG OF MINE) As recorded by Gene Vincent (From the 1956 Album BLUEJEAN BOP!) [Verse 1] Not a soul down on the corner That’s a pretty certain sign Those wedding bells are breaking up That old gang of mine [Verse 2] All the boys are singing love songs They forgot sweet Adeline Those wedding bells are breaking up That old gang of mine [Bridge] Well there goes Jack there goes Jim Strollin’ down lover’s lane Now and then we meet again But they don’t seem the same [Verse 3] Life gets that lonesome feeling Then I hear the church bells ring Those wedding bells are breaking up That old gang of mine [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Well there goes Jack there goes Jim Strollin’ down lover’s lane Now and then we meet again But they don’t seem the same [Verse 4] Life gets that lonesome feeling When I hear the church bells ring Those wedding bells are breaking up That old gang of mine

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque la nostalgie d'un groupe d'amis qui se dissout peu à peu à cause des mariages. Le chanteur ressent un vide en voyant ses camarades s'éloigner pour embrasser la vie amoureuse, tandis que leur bande se réduit, emportant avec elle les souvenirs de moments insouciants. Les cloches des églises rappellent ce changement inévitable, marquant la fin d'une époque. C'est un reflet poignant de la solitude qui s'installe lorsque l'on réalise que les choses ne seront plus jamais comme avant.
