Chicks on Speed are a female electrogroup which got its origins in Munich, formed in 1997 after the members had met through the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich. Chicks on Speed's core members consist of Alex Murray-Leslie (originally Nicki Murray-Leslie; born September 1, 1970, Australia), Melissa Logan (born September 9, 1970, USA) and Kiki Moorse (the daughter of the late film-maker George Moorse; born March 23, 1967, Germany). Around Chicks on Speed there is grouped a large and ever-changing collective of musicians, producers, graphic artists, designers, film and video makers, and so on. Though usually considered part of such musical genres as electroclash, actually Chicks on Speed started as a multidisciplinary art group, who applied punk-inspired DIY ethic to performance art, collage graphics and home-made fashion (they have created their own stage costumes with cheap and recycled material such as plastic bags and gaffa tape, for example). They originally got their name when they earned some extra money at art galleries by hanging paintings to the walls, and someone quipped that they worked like "chicks on speed".

Love Life Lyrics

Chicks On Speed

No reference no consequence
I think of you, I think of you
No commitment, nonexistent
Lovely you, I think of you

Living the high life, as the girlfriend of a star
A circle of friends who were girlfriends of stars
Shes in no good mood, he orders the car
She tells the driver to drive really far
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?

No reference no consequence
I think of you, I think of you
No commitment, nonexistent
Lovely you, I think of you

A stylist takes a cab uptown Bergdorf Goodmans
She takes back the belts she used for a test shoot
On her credit card
Living in a box outside its fancy free
Lying that she lost her job while hunting the boutiques
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?

No reference no consequence
I think of you, I think of you
No commitment, nonexistent
Lovely you, I think of you

At the end there is a house by the sea like a perfect end of a movie
From in here there´s s just these gray walls around you

No reference no consequence
I think of you, I think of you
No commitment, nonexistent
Lovely you, I think of you
