Ghent-based band - earlier under the name Things to Come - who shot to the top of the Belgian scene through their victory in the 1998-edition of the Rock Rally (a "battle of the bands" contest, which they won before Fence and Chrome Yellow). The trademark Das Pop are (what else to expect with such a name) pop-melodies and a sound that's close to Blur and Britpop. As Bent van Looy, the singing and painting drummer, describes it "There's a need for pure pop in Belgium. Our music is without pretence, but has to be clever. This has to be clear both in the lyrics and the music.

Such A Day Lyrics

Das Pop

Its' such a day
making all kinds of love to you
and it's ok
Nobody's watching me or you
are you
we might destroy the things we have
our minds are sane
our hearts in half
we try to work
it doesn't work
we know
we're in a daze
watching the masses after work
we work
we'll go astray
making our love until
we hurt
we'll burn
we might destroy the things we have
our minds are sane
our hearts in half
we try to work
it doesn't work
we know
we can't relive the lives we had
we must collide we move ahead
we head for home
all work no play
you know
it's such a day
we'll go astray
making our love until we faint
all stained
