Dutch new wave duo Pol, made up of model/musician siblings Ruben Pol and Matthijs Pol, have returned with their excellent new single “Modern Strange Love“.
The track arrives with glistening and mind altering synth pop, akin to pioneers of the genre Bronski Beat and Pet Shop Boys.
“‘Modern Strange Love’ portrays a despairing expression of love, a love that seems to be unobtainable.”

Pol “Modern Strange Love” Lyrics:
Modern Strange Love
Tears are crawling
We only wait to survive
No, why don’t you please
Give it to me?
All I need to survive
Speak your mind, nobody can deny
Yet all we ever do is wait a long, long time
Need your love before you paint it blue
There is another time
in which I’m meant to be with you
run
away
with me
(tonight)
What can we do?
L’amour toujours
And you’re dancing
Like you’re alright
(You) seem to don’t mind goodbyes
No escaping
It’s mistaken
Your routines break my mind
Speak your mind, nobody can deny
Yet all we ever do is wait a long, long time
Need your love before you paint it blue
There is another time
in which I’m meant to be with you
run
away
with me
What can we do?
L’amour toujours
You’ve got to wait for me
Modern Strange Love
You got me feeling down
Modern Strange Love
Oh, you want attention now?
Modern Strange Love
Oh, what am I feeling now?
Modern Strange Love
(Ooh) x2
