Imelda May - 11 Past the Hour

  

 Imelda May Scores #1 Album! - Universal Music Ireland

Το ομώνυμο τραγούδι από το νέο άλμπουμ της Imelda May, 11 Past the Hour,  που κυκλοφόρησε στις 16 Απριλίου. 

 

It was 11 past the hour
Darkness in the air
Lay down on wild flowers
The moonlight didn't care
Give me your heart
I'll hold it with mine
So you can feel free, my love
Free for a while
Dance with me, darling
Dance with me, darling
Forget the world
I'll hold you in my arms
As we twirl around
Hide your innocence in all your sins
And all the love in the world
Won't be enough to help you sail
Through the storm you created yourself
But you're not to blame
I kiss the tear
That drops from your eye
So you can see clearer
All the stars in the sky
Don't say another word
Baby, don't speak
Sadness and sorrow
Your lips are too sweet
Mmm
Dance with me, darling
Dance with me, darling
Forget the world
I'll hold you in my arms
As we twirl around
Hide your innocence in all your sins
And all the love in the world
Won't be enough to help you sail
Through the storm you created yourself
But you're not to blame
You're not to blame
Dance with me, darling
Dance with me, darling
Forget this world
I'll hold you in my arms
As we twirl around
Hide your innocence in all your sins
And all the love in the world
Won't be enough to help you sail
Through the storm you created yourself
But you're not to blame
You're not to blame

David Gilmour - Yes, I Have Ghosts


 

Το Yes, I Have Ghosts εκτός από το single του 2020 περιέχεται σαν ομότιτλο bonus cd στην έκδοση με μαλακό εξώφυλλο  του βιβλίου της συζύγου του  David Gilmour, Polly Samson, A Theatre Of Dreamers, που κυκλοφόρησε στις 15 Απριλίου του 2021. Το βιβλίο που πρωτοκυκλοφόρησε το 2020 και είχε πολύ μεγάλη εμπορική επιτυχία αλλά και αναγνώριση από τους κριτικούς σαν το βιβλίο της χρονιάς, αναφέρεται σε μια 18χρονη, που μετακομίζει στην Ύδρα για να ξεφύγει από τον αυστηρό πατέρα της τη δεκαετία του 1960 και γνωρίζει πολλούς καλλιτέχνες ανάμεσα στους οποίους και το Leonard Cohen. Εκτός από τον David Gilmour στο cd παίζει και η κόρη του ζευγαριού Romany.  

 Τα κομμάτια του cd είναι: 

1. Yes, I Have Ghosts
2. Tell The Truth
3. Astral Dust
4. Kokineli


The heat of the sun stayed on through the night
Made spectres of strangers playing games with my sight
I passed through the station, a face in the crowd

The whistle was blowing, the barrier came down

There was my baby, in another's embrace
I called out her name in shame and disgrace
Yes, I have ghosts, not all of them dead
Making dust of my dreams, spinning round and around
Around in my head

Marc Almond - Cabaret Clown

Marc Almond – Varieté (2010, CD) - Discogs

Από το 15ο άλμπουμ του Marc AlmondVarieté που κυκλοφόρησε στις 7 Ιουνίου του 2010.

Το  Varieté ήταν το πρώτο άλμπουμ του με καινούριο υλικό μετά από μια δεκαετία.

 

 Drawing your curtains
And locking the door
TV dinner for one
You're alone as before

Do you leave on the greasepaint
To cover the tears
Does it hold the illusion
Of your star lit years

Self parody and bathos
Deluded belief
Like the blackest of comedies
Ending in grief

Where was the pathos
And where was the man
Just a cabaret clown
In a Vaudeville sham

I'll be seeing you round
Cabaret Clown
When there's no one around

Where was the voice
That thrilled me to bits
Where were the show stoppers
Where were the hits

You hanged the arrangements
Performance so cruel
Where was my hero
There now stands a fool

And what the hell
Did you do to your face
Can't you let in the grey
And grow old with grace

You're a freak and a fraud
With contempt for your crowd
So beautifully bitter
So painfully proud

Too much blind pride
To admit when you're wrong
Envious of others
You messed up your song

Yes I know the clown's story
The clichés the same
With you smile on the outside
Inside you're in pain

So behind the locked door
With your dinner for one
Do you forget the lyrics
To most of your songs

When I look at the pantomime
What do I see
Like a mirror of truth
Staring back I see...

Blue Öyster Cult - Tainted Blood

 




 


Δεκαεννέα χρόνια μετά το Curse of the Hidden Mirror οι  Blue Öyster Cult επιστρέφουν στη δισκογραφία με το The Symbol Remains. 

 Οι BOC δεν σταμάτησαν στο διάστημα αυτό τις ζωντανές εμφανίσεις και με τη "συναυλιακή" τους σύνθεση κυκλοφορούν το νέο τους άλμπουμ στο οποίο συμμετέχει και ο Albert Bouchard σε ένα κομμάτι (That Was Me).



We danced among the mortals blind to their despair
As the sweet scent of certainty fills the midnight air
I offer first taste to my love as is our way
Tainted blood, she cries and dies, my whole world fades away

No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years

Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery

Throughout the many years our lives were oh so sweet
But this tainted blood has taken everything from me
No place for me within this world, the dance is done
No reason to remain, you were the only one

No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years

Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery

No one to wipe my bloody tears
The life we had for 200 years

Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light
Do whatever it takes to end this endless night
Without her there's nothing for me
Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains
Do whatever it takes to end my pain
Without her eternity is misery

Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light

There's nothing, nothing for me

Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains

Put a stake through my heart, throw me out in the light

Make the sign of the cross, wrap me into the chains

The first time, the first time
The first time, the first time
Well can I say amen?
I never thought, this could happen again
And I hope this feeling lasts
Can tomorrow feel like it did back in the past?
Before we knew it too well
But only time, time will tell
If tomorrow feels like
The first time, the first time
The first time, the first time
We live on learning from the past
And I know those feelings, that never seem to last
But can we put it on again?
And have it feel as special
As it did back then?
When we discovered it
Before we knew it well?
But only time, time will tell if tomorrow feels like
The first time, the first time, time, yeah time
The first time, the first time
The first time, the first time
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Yeah
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Ooh, I wonder where the time went?
Yeah

Interpol - The Rover

File:Interpol - Marauder cover art.png



Οι Interpol επιστρέφουν στη δισκογραφία μετά από 4 χρόνια με την κυκλοφορία του  Marauder (24 Αυγούστου). Το The Rover, που είναι το πρώτο σινγκλ, κυκλοφορεί από τις 7 Ιουνίου.


[Verse 1]
Come and see me and maybe you'll die
But I can keep you in artwork, the fluid kind
That's enough for excitements today
Prostrated faded, it's pay-to-play

[Verse 2]
Come and see me yeah, maybe you'll try
I've been holding these pyros til they could fly
Open up and enlighten again
Enjoy the skyline, it's an incremental end

[Chorus]
"Walk in on your own feet"
Says the rover
"It's my way or they all leave"
Says the rover
The rover

[Verse 3]
Ça suffit, hell yeah, maybe it's time
You can't stick to the highways, it's suicide
I'm welling up with excitements again
The apex resolves, you need to tell your friends

[Chorus]
"Walk in on your own feet"
Says the rover
"It's my way or they all leave"
Says the rover
The rover
(Ooooh, Ooooh)
The rover
(Ooooh, Ooooh)
The rover

[Verse 4]
Come and see me, yeah baby, let's cry
Satin face in some worlds we’d be too kind
Nature’s subjected to fires again
Falling for my independence

[Chorus]
Walk in on your own feet
Says the rover
You were high end on the wrong street
Till the rover
Said hop in, all in
The rover
Hop in, all in
The rover
(Ooooh, Ooooh)
The rover
(Ooooh, Ooooh)
All in, (Ooooh, Ooooh) all in
The rover
He barely has to seek repentants

A Perfect Circle - TalkTalk

APC eat the elephant.jpg





 Δεκατέσσερα χρόνια πέρασαν από την κυκλοφορία του προηγουμενου άλμπουμ των A Perfect Circle, που επέστρεψαν στις 20 Απριλίου με το Eat the Elephant. Το TalkTalk είναι το 3ο σινγκλ από το άλμπουμ και αναφέρεται σε όσους θεωρητικολογούν για την πίστη αλλά οι πράξεις δε συμβαδίζουν με τα λόγια τους.



[Verse 1]
You're waiting (you're waiting ...)
On miracles (on miracles ...)
We're bleeding out (bleeding out ...)

Thoughts (thoughts ...)
And prayers (prayers ...)
Adorable (crisis ...)
Like cake in a crisis (in a crisis ...)
We're bleeding out (bleeding out ...)

[Pre-Chorus]
While you deliberate
Bodies accumulate

[Chorus 1]
Sit and talk like Jesus
Try walkin' like Jesus
Sit and talk like Jesus
Talk like Jesus
Talk talk talk talk
Get the fuck out of my way

[Bridge]
Don’t be the problem, be the solution
Don’t be the problem, be the solution
Don’t be the problem, be the solution
Problem, problem, problem, problem

Faith without works is
Talk without works is
Faith without works is
Talk without works is
Faith without works is
Dead, dead, dead, dead

[Chorus 2]
Sit and talk like Jesus
Try walkin' like Jesus
Sit and talk like Jesus
Try walkin' like Jesus
Try braving the rain
Try lifting the stone
Try extending a hand
Try walkin' your talk or get the fuck out of my way

The Decemberists - Severed


File:Cover of "I'll Be Your Girl".jpg






Το πρώτο σινγκλ από το νέο άλμπουμ των  The Decemberists, I’ll Be Your Girl, που κυκλοφορεί από τις 18 Μαρτίου. Το άλμπουμ έφτασε μέχρι το νο9 στο Billboard.


I alight like a whisper
I alight with the lights out
And it won't take me long just to find you
And it won't take me long just to find you
I'm allied to the winter
But don't you get clever
Don't you get clever
I'm allied to the landslide
Gonna leave you all severed
Gonna leave you all severed
I alone am the answer
I alone will make wrongs right
But in order to root out the cancer
It's got to be kept from the sight
I'm allied to the winter
But don't you get clever
Don't you get clever
I'm allied to the landslide
Gonna leave you all severed
Gonna leave you all severed
I was born to a jackal
I was born in a whiteout
Gonna smother you all till I choke you
Gonna smother you all till you kick out
I'm allied to the winter
But don't you get clever
Don't you get clever
I'm allied to the landslide
Gonna leave you all severed
Gonna leave you all severed

The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die - Marine Tigers





Από το νέο άλμπουμ των The World Is a Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die, Always Foreign, που θα κυκλοφορήσει στις 29 Σεπτεμβρίου. Το Marine Tigers είναι εμπνευσμένο από το ομότιτλο βιβλίο του πατέρα του τραγουδιστή του συγκροτήματος David Bello, José Bello. Το βιβλίο μιλώντας για την αντιμετώπιση, που έχει ο ήρωάς του, που έχει ένα τρίτο χέρι στην πλάτη, ουσιαστικά μεταφέρει τις κακές εμπειρείες του ίδιου του συγγραφέα, που μετανάστευσε από το Πουέρτο Ρικο στη Νέα Υόρκη τη δεκαετία του '40. Σχετικός είναι και ο ίδιος ο τίτλος του άλμπουμ (Always Foreign)



You walk around the old neighbourhood
But your heart’s not in it
Nonchantly pointing out the coffee shop
You made your plans in
The jobs you have to do there

You walk around the new neighbourhood
But your heart’s not in it
To learn any more about this country
The apartment you have to live in
They decided that we didn’t fit the records that they hold
And we created more

Following the hours ending
You know we have to leave the building
You know we have to leave all the doors unlocked
We know we will not be the last
We know that they have got a plan too

A car for us to drive in
A box for us to die in
A vote for us to write in
An app we all confide in
Making money is horrible
A rotten institution

We’re here
We’re here
I told you so
I told you so

We’re here
We’re here
I told you so
I told you so
Like oil in an ocean
Like we loved that poison
Please remember as a person
It’s the land that’s always foreign

Can you still call it a country?
If all the states are broken
Can you still call it a business?
If all you do is steal
Can you live our marine tigers?
All the boulder rain was made for
We huff and puff but nothing ever comes

There’s nothing wrong with Josѐ
There’s nothing wrong with Moses
There’s nothing wrong with kindness
There’s nothing wrong with knowing

We’re here
I told you so
We’re here
I told you so
We’re here
I told you so
We’re here
I told you so

Anthrax - In The End






Βίντεο για το αφιερωμένο στη μνήμη των Ronnie James Dio και Dimebag Darrell, In The End  κυκλοφόρησαν στις 20 Αυγούστου (συμπίπτει με τη μερα που θα γιόρταζε τα 51α γενέθλιά του ο δεύτερος) οι Anthrax
Το κομμάτι βρισκόταν στο άλμπουμ τους Worship Music (2011).


Our star was out tonight
Our diamond shined so bright
I watched it go
Farther than he ever dreamed
I can't take it

No matter how I try
I can't stop asking why
'Cause something's broken
Scared it breaks my heart
I won't take it, can't break it

In the end
I'm pounding on the door
But It's already over
Too little, too late

In the end
He'll be my light in the dark
For when the sun goes down
When the sun goes down on me

And when the greatest falls
Heaven and Hell will call
Stand up and fight
On and on his memory screams
I can't take it

Stand up and fight withal
I won't take it, I can't break it

In the end
I'm pounding on the door
But It's already over
Too little, too late

In the end
They'll be my light in the dark
For when the sun goes down
For when the sun goes down

In the end
I'm kicking down the door
And I'm taking this over
I'm cleaning the slate

In the end
They'll be my light in the dark
For when the sun goes down
When the sun goes down on me

Did I thank you, for our time together?
Did I thank you, for making me better?
Did I thank you, for being the one I would
Bleed and kill for?
Did I thank you for tearing my head off?
Ripping my heart out
Fucking my world

Do we tell you how much we loved you?
Do we tell you you made our dreams come true?
Do we tell you you were the one?
Paving our way, the damage is done
Did we thank you for tearing our head off?
Ripping our hearts out
Fucking our world!

I can't break it

In the end
I'm pounding on the door
But It's already over
Too little, too late

In the end
He'll be my light in the dark
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down

In the end
I'm pounding on the door
But It's already over
Too little, too late

In the end
He'll be my light in the dark
For when the sun goes down
When the sun goes down on me
