See what you did to me I never felt so easy, felt so free Too long I have been married to the grave, but didn’t earn how much I gave, I gave … So totally insane Hopeless passion rules the game Soft and tender through the night, we’re diving side by side So totally insane You’re the one to take the blame For the sadness that I hide became a pleasure ride On you my isle I want to stay, come rescue me from today Your smile’s the prettiest inside this town, it makes me want you, kills my frown See what you did to me I never felt so easy, felt so free That’s why I breathe your near until I’m dead, don’t care about what your neighbor said all night So totally insane Hopeless passion rules the game Soft and tender through the night, we’re diving side by side So totally insane You’re the one to take the blame For the sadness that I hide became a pleasure ride

Caught 04:08
I glide away in the drunkenness of this night In a world which even cries when it laughs Everything is worthless for a very short moment It seems to be like a fire which will burn everything   Soon I’ll reach the higher ground My sake will guide the way There I’ll stay, I’ll stay Agony won’t done me ’cause I’ll divest all my love You’re away, away …   Lunacy and beauty, enticing flash A sinking world is just all that remains Stronger than a maelstrom which has taken me down Loosing my consciousness, I’ve gone to follow the wind Soon I’ll reach the higher ground My sake will guide the way There I’ll stay, I’ll stay Agony won’t done me ’cause I’ll divest all my love You’re away, away …   Take down your pressure and I’ll be your treasure For all that I gave can be taken away Learn to esteem that what lies in between and I will be there to hold you Soon I’ll reach the higher ground My sake will guide the way There I’ll stay, I’ll stay Agony won’t done me ’cause I’ll divest all my love You’re away, away …

Hypocritical 04:06
While I wait, beloved sweet child, for a time to come - a time to face the light Everything becomes more clear, where behind a tragic mask is growing fear While I wait, beloved sweet child, for a time to come - a time to face the light Everything becomes more clear, where behind a tragic mask is growing fear Once more I search and doubt the barren chance Undying gets the frail romance when it fails But there are seven million causes to enjoy a lucky life Just one is left to urge me and to show me that I’ll die This state of such a paranoia - hardly to endure - makes me so hypocritical, there’ll never be no cure Once I lovely called you »thick« Nowadays a bitter taste gives me the kick When you’re close I feel the same like some years ago - it’s nothing but a shame We’re playing hide and seek and seek and hide, but who will keep the larger pride? Though I’ll die … But there are seven million causes to enjoy a lucky life Just one is left to urge me and to show me that I’ll die This state of such a paranoia - hardly to endure - makes me so hypocritical, there’ll never be no cure But there are seven million causes to enjoy a lucky life Just one is left to urge me and to show me that I’ll die This state of such a paranoia - hardly to endure - makes me so hypocritical, there’ll never be no cure

Now it’s here, a brand new day - just like that before Walking down the streets alone and nothing changed - I still adore What they call their present life always passed me by Every hour I’m so sad - I wonder where my joy is left Note for note features every single load Sulking still … Thus I condone the aging-bill Suffering on imperfection fills my aching heart with fear It’s not easy to ignore that … no … And with every dawn it kills While that longing for the end seems to overcome I start flying up to there where I do not care, no longer bare Note for note features every single load Sulking still … Thus I condone the aging-bill Suffering on imperfection fills my aching heart with fear It’s not easy to ignore that … no … And with every dawn it kills

My Burana 04:45
Down from the dream side where we came, we passed the seven kingdoms of passion with no shame - fallen from heaven Now that she’s gone, o I do really miss her Lonely I’m thirsting with a sigh Just want to kiss her My Burana don’t you see - this is heaven Glowing devotion in your eyes, burning like embers Never forgetting, never dies - I will remember My Burana don’t you see - this is heaven In the hour of your sweet charming slumber all my faith did rise When I’m drunk with your love I’ll get sober never before our sun turns to ice My Burana don’t you see - this is heaven In the hour of your charming slumber My Burana don’t you see that’s heaven In the hour of your charming slumber My Burana don’t you see that’s heaven In the hour of your charming slumber My Burana don’t you see that’s heaven

Strange Days 04:02
Just like a fuddling fix it shoots between us Glow well, dear fire stream Leaving all debiting far behind Well as the days turn dark with bad suspicion I know this certainty is really really really not of life These are strange days Echoes of my throat I deny nothing twice These are strange days Matter’s gone abroad I deny nothing twice Inside a wounded mind there’s no redemption These fault of those who tied someones heart up to the loving cross can never be assumed nor be deemed ended And in the end it’s but a really really really bitter loss These are strange days Echoes of my throat I deny nothing twice These are strange days Matter’s gone abroad I deny nothing twice

Freezing 04:05
Though it’s over, though it’s out, though you changed - there’s no doubt, still my heart does beat too fast Though I try you to suppress, though I try to confess, no one hits the fault - I’m sad It’s too clear that I have lost my destination - my host That’s not easy to digest I go down all alone and I’m freezing, freezing … I go down all alone All my powers went away How I wished you to stay But my heart knows it’s too late Never did I thought that life could influence our strive this entire love to safe I go down all alone and I’m freezing, freezing … I go down all alone and I’m freezing, freezing … I go down all alone and I’m freezing, freezing … I go down all alone I guess the whole tragedy led us to our borders We bled more than we could ever bear Nonetheless you’ll forever be, o my god it’s killing me, my sweet bopper, and I see: I go down all alone and I’m freezing, freezing … I go down all alone I go down I go down I go down I go down

Just today I felt myself arise, no matter what’s the token And I see your fairy eyes And I see your fairy eyes Never did I meet a girl like you The yesterdays are broken And I’m walking And I’m dying with you Yes I know: I know, you know both the gushing and the low There is so much to been shared Yes I know: I know, you know both the streets that we are going Well, your beauty connives no regret Too long I’ve been down under Now your love flows through my veins Now your love flows through my veins Though your skin is made of ivory, your charm is made of thunder And you’re smiling And you’re dreaming like I do Yes I know: I know, you know both the gushing and the low There is so much to been shared Yes I know: I know, you know both the streets that we are going Through your veil shines your love, lil’ smiling Penumbra Let me see all your thoughts, your vision – show it all Yes I know: I know, you know both the gushing and the low There is so much to been shared Yes I know: I know, you know both the streets that we are going I know, you know both the gushing and the low There is so much to been shared I know, we know both the streets that we will go

Redefine 05:44
By the craft of sleep different views I keep O why must some overflow become undertow? O why do I handle decline? All I want is to save what is mine So I redefine Chosen ways can’t be laid to rest O why must the pretty ones turn into a test? O why does it seem there’s no time? All I want is to hold on the line Keep hoping, keep loving, hiding above Keep looking back - it’s going better And the morning glows, wants me now to rouse But I answer with a smile, dream on for a while And I do enjoy all you five All I want is to share all your strive Keep hoping, keep loving, hiding above Keep looking back - it’s going better

about

In very rare cases, it happens that a powerful classic car gathers dust in a garage completely unused. Even if it was once potentially outstandingly roadworthy and possibly even ahead of its time. Even the owner had almost forgotten about its existence. And then suddenly - a whole 20 years later - a new generation discovers a back door to that garage that had remained hidden even from the owner.

Because the classic car bears neither a license plate nor a model name, the new generation relentlessly embarks on a search that lasts several years. One day they finally succeed. They track down the owner. His name is THE GALLERY. And the surprised owner tells them the model name. It is »Little Islands«. Out of love for the model, the new generation had even come up with its own name in the meantime: »So Totally Insane«.

Impressed and moved by the new generation’s love for this classic car, THE GALLERY decides to dust it off, polish it up a bit and drive it out of the garage. Into the daylight. Out of gratitude, the classic car is given a new model name that combines its origins with its newfound appreciation: »Little Islands - So Totally Insane«. That makes it complete.

What the new generation didn’t know until now: there are eight more locked garages next door. The eight other classic cars inside are also being dusted off and polished up a bit. An armada of nine supposed classics now stands in the yard, enjoying being driven out for the very first time in their long unknown history. Admittedly late, but better than never.

THE GALLERY gives this particular constellation the name »Garage Millennials«. They are old, no doubt. But they are in good shape. Above all, they can hardly wait to finally, finally hit the road. Because that’s exactly what they were once made for.

Be nice to them and have a good time together.
