Najee - All The Things (Your Man Won't Do) - (live)

To All The Things (Your Man Won't Do) που είναι διασκευή τραγουδιού του Joe υπάρχει στο άλμπουμ του Najee - Morning Tenderness (1998)
========
Spoken:
Hey baby, you said you need someone to be there for you
To love you all night long?
It's kinda funny but I don't think you have to look no further
Because I'm right here and I'm ready
To do all the things your man won't do

Verse 1:
Tell me what kind of man would treat his woman so cold
Treat you like you're nothing when you're worth more than gold
Girl to me you're like a diamond I love the way you shine
A hundred million dollar treasure
I'd give the world to make you mine (la la la la la)
I'd put a string of pearls right in your hand
Make love on a beach of jet black sand
Outside in the rain we can do it all night
I'll touch all the places he would not
And some he never knew would get you hot
Nothing is forbidden when we touch

CHORUS:
Baby I wanna do all the things your man won't do (every little thing)
I'll do them for you
Baby I wanna do all the things your man won't do
I'll do them for you

VERSE 2:
Take you out on a night cruise on a yatch just can't lose
Cause we got a lot to look forward to one two whatcha gonna do
What good is a diamond nobody can see
I hear he got you on lockdown but I got the master key yeah
I'll light up all the candles all around
Show me to the subway I'll go down
Nothing can be sweeter than the sound of making love
Baby when I start I just can't stop
I'll love you from the bottom to the top
Nothing is forbidden when we touch baby

CHORUS

HOOK:
(La la la la la)
I'll light up all the candles all around
Show me to the subway I'll go down
Nothing can be sweeter than the sound of making love
Baby when I start I just can't stop
I'll love you from the bottom to the top
Nothing is forbidden when we touch oooh yeah

CHORUS II:
Baby I wanna do all the things your man won't do (I'm gonna I'm gonna ohhh)
I'll do them for you
Sweet lady I wanna do all the things your man won't do
I'll do them for you

VAMP:
Oooh I gotta a jones in my bones for you
There ain't a damn thing that I won't do
Make your body cream with my sex machine
I won't stop until I hear your mother scream

CHORUS OUT:
All the things your man won't do...
All the things your man won't do...
All the things your man won't do...

Big Country - Look Away

To Look Away βρισκόταν στο άλμπουμ των Big Country - The Seer, (1986) στο οποίο συμμετείχε και η Cate Bush. To Look Away έγινε η μεγαλύτερη επιτυχία τους στην Αγγλία.
--==BC==--

This time we run
this time we hide

This time we draw on all the
fire we have inside.
We need some time to find a place
Where I can wipe away the
madness from your face.

Our name is out
our name is known

Our name is everywhere
but who knows where we're flown.
I never meant to kill a man

But I will show you how to
live like no one can.

So look away
look away

Hide your eyes from the
land where I lie cold.
Look away

look away from the lies
in the stories that
were told.
Look away

look away from the love
that I hide way down deep
in my soul.

I met you wild in a snowed up town
When I was waiting tied and
bound to be sent down.
Then I broke loose
you weren't around

So I raised banks and
trains until I tracked
you down.

Now look away
look away
. . .

You followed me why I said no

You lay with me when there was
nowhere safe to go.
We made some friends
but now it's done

I always knew that we would
never find the sun.

So look away
look away
. . .

The Seeds - Pushin' Too Hard

Ένα τραγούδι που σημάδεψε την καριέρα των The Seeds του χαρισματικού Sky Saxon και επηρέασε πολύ τη μουσική πολλών άλλων συγκροτημάτων.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIII

You're pushin' too hard, uh-pushin' on me
You're pushin' too hard, uh-what you want me to be
You're pushin' too hard about the things you say
You're pushin' too hard every night and day
You're pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard on me (too hard)

Well all I want is to just be free
Live my life the way I wanna be
All I want is to just have fun
Live my life like it's just begun
But you're pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard on me (too hard)

Well, better listen girl to what I'm tellin' you
You better listen girl, or we are through
You better stop all your foolin' around
Stop your runnin' all over town
'Cause you're pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard on me (too hard)

Well I know there's a lotta fish in the sea
I know some would-uh stay by me
So if you don't think I'm gonna try
You better ask yourself the reason why
'Cause you're pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard on me (too hard)

Pushin' too hard, pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard, pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard, pushin' too hard
Pushin' too hard on me (too hard)

3 Doors Down - Landing in London

Από το πλατινένιο άλμπουμ των 3 Doors Down, Seventeen Days (2005). Συμμετέχει και ο Bob Seger
ΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞ
I woke up today in London
As the plane was touching down
And all I could think about was monday
And maybe ill be back around

If this keeps me away much longer
I dont know what i will do
Youve got to understand its a hard life
That im going through

And when the night falls in around me
I dont think ill make it through
Ill use your light to guide the way
Cause all I think about is you

Well L.A is getting kinda crazy
And New york is getting kinda cold
I keep my head from geting lazy
I just cant wait to get back home

And all these days i spend away
Ill make up for this i swear
I need your love to hold me up
When its all too much to bear

And when the night falls in around me
I dont think ill make it through
Ill use your light to guide the way
Cause all I think about is you

And all these days i spend away
Ill make up for this i swear
I need your love to hold me up
When its all too much to bear

When the night falls in around me
I dont think ill make it through
Ill use your light to guide the way
Cause all I think about is you

The Coral - Who's Gonna Find Me

Ακούγεται πολύ τελευταία. Με ήχο που παραπέμπει σε πολύ παλιότερες εποχές, το Who's Gonna Find Me είναι το 1ο single από το καινούριο cd των The Coral : Roots & Echoes
***************
It’s six in the morning
And theres no one else around
The mist has fallen
As I look out on the town

It’s playing on my mind
Wasting all my time, away

It’s too close for tears
And it too hard to forget
It’s too close for tears
I think i thought i said

It’s playing on my mind
Wasting all my time, away
Who’s gonna find me?
Tell me where I can go?
Who’s gonna find me, searching, alone.

The face in the mirror
It’s a face ive never met
Until I forgive her ill remember to forget

It’s playing on my mind
Wasting all my time, away
Who’s gonna find me?
Tell me where I can go?
Who’s gonna find me, searching, alone.

And the hours, they build
From underneath the spell, once again

It’s 6 in the evening
And im sweeping up the day
The people beneath them
But I am here to stay

It’s playing on my mind
Wasting all my time, away
Who’s gonna find me?
Tell me where i can go?
Who’s gonna find me, searching, alone

~~~SANTANA~~~
1st Verse
Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell,
It was love from above, that could save me from hell, She had fire in her soul it was easy to see,
how the devil himself could be pulled out of me, There were drums in the air as she started to dance,
Every soul in the room keeping time with there hands,
And we sang…

(Chorus)
Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,
And the voices rang like the angels sing,
And singing…
Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,
And we danced on into the night,
Ay oh ay oh,
Ay oh ay oh,
And we danced on into the night,

2nd Verse
Like a piece to the puzzle that falls into place,
You could tell how we felt from the look on our faces,
we was spinning in circles with the moon in our eyes,
No room left to move in between you and I,
We forgot where we were and we lost track of time,
And we sang to the wind as we danced through the night,
And we sang…

(Chorus)
Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,
And the voices rang like the angels sing,
And singing…
Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay,
And we danced on into the night,
Ay oh ay oh,
Ay oh ay oh,

And we danced on into the night,
Ay oh ay oh,
Ay oh ay oh,
And we danced on into the night,

(solo)

Kwan - Tainted Love

Άλλο ένα συγκρότημα από τη Φινλανδία οι Kwan μας παρουσιάζουν το δικό τους "Tainted Love" (δεν είναι διασκευή στο γνωστό κομμάτι των Soft Cell). Το τραγούδι κυκλοφόρησε πέρισυ αλλά τελευταία ακούγεται στη χώρα μας.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As attainable as where the ring of smoke
where the finger be swirling a (...)
There's no point in trying, in calling you back
but taking control of the following act
I've been sensing a tension in your delay
hesitation in drawing the velvet drop
There's no way of unravelling the plot
without taking the slide in the rabbit hole with me

refrain:
Are you ready to play the game
Ready to lose it all
Sure you want to play
this tainted love
Ready to play the game
Ready to lose it all
Sure you want to play
this tainted love
Ready to play the game
Ready to lose it all
Are you sure you want to play

Should you give me a moment and let me think
I will come up with something you can't resist
demonstrating myself in a certain way
with the lighting so subtle and perfectly dim
A suggestion of mine which you will not take
is to pack your belongings and steal away
for the play is in progress and what's to come
may not be your thought of marvelous fun
at all

refrain

Take this moment, don't reason it through
Leave all caution, fall for my need
Let me see

refrain...

Φλέρυ Νταντωνάκη - Suzanne

Get this widget | Track details | eSnips Social DNA

Από το cd με τίτλο "Η αιώνια εφηβεία της φωνής" που κυκλοφόρησε η ΕΡΤ το 2000 και περιείχε ηχογραφήσεις της Φ. Νταντωνάκη για το 3ο Πρόγραμμα.
***************
Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half crazy
But that's why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That come all the way from China
And just when you mean to tell her
That you have no love to give her
Then she gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer
That you've always been her lover
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that she will trust you
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.
And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said "All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them"
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you'll trust him
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.

Now Suzanne takes your hand
And she leads you to the river
She is wearing rags and feathers
From Salvation Army counters
And the sun pours down like honey
On our lady of the harbour
And she shows you where to look
Among the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.

The Cinematic Orchestra - Breathe (live at the Barbican, London, 2007)

Iδανικό για να αποχαιρετίσεις μια κουραστική μέρα είναι το καινούριο "Ma Fleur" των The Cinematic Orchestra. Στο Breath που είναι μια από τις καλύτερες στιγμές του συμμετέχει η Fontella Bass
============

(Oh that feelin's rising...
rising over me)
Oh, that song is singin'
Singin' in to me.
Over everything,
I used to be.

Oh, that song is singin'
Singin' in to me.

Slow and sweet
It caries me
Caries me (x3)
Out to sea

And swallows me
In to the deep
And comforts me (x2)

(Oh, it's all around me, it's all I can see
Even when I close my eyes, It's holdin' me)
Oh, that weight is liftin'
Liftin' on me

(Tenderly)
It caries me
Out to the sea
And swallows me (x3)
Into the deep
And comforts me (x2)
In ... In to the deep
And comforts me (x3)

Oh, that silence signin', singing to me...

Breathe up to me (x2)
Breathe in through me
Breathe out through me
Breathe in through me

ooh Breathe out through... through me
Why don't you breathe in... breathe in through me
and breathe out through me

Willie Dixon - Blues You Can't Lose

Μια από τις μεγαλύτερες επιρροές των Led Zeppelin ήταν ο Willie Dixon (αποδεδειγμένα και με δικαστική απόφαση άλλωστε -στο "Whole Lotta Love" που ήταν κλεμμένο από το δικό του "You Gotta Be Loved"-), πέρα από τα κομμάτια του που είχαν επίσημα διασκευάσει.
Σ' ένα πολύ ξεχωριστό τραγούδι του εδώ από το τελευταίο του ( εκτός από το soundtrack Ginger Ale Afternoon που κυκλοφόρησε την επόμενη χρονιά) studio album Ηidden Charms του 1988. Το Ηidden Charms κέρδισε το βραβείο Grammy σαν καλύτερη παραδοσιακή Blues ηχογράφηση το 1989.
~~~~~WD~~~~~
Some they march while some stand still
Some they die while others live
Some they laugh while some they cry
Some hang on while some pass by

Some are high and some are low
Some are sure and some don't know
Some are weak and some are strong
Some are here and some are gone

CHORUS:
With all these things
In a poor man's mind
He gotta have the blues
He can't leave behind

REPEAT CHORUS:

Led Zeppelin - Mothership, περισσότερες συναυλίες από τους Zeppelin;

Led Zeppelin - Mothership



Με την ευκαιρία της συναυλίας της 12ης Δεκεμβρίου κυκλοφορεί το 2πλό cd - συλλογή με τίτλο Mothership.

*********************

Ελπίδες ότι το reunion των Led Zeppelin δε θα περιοριστεί στη συναυλία της 12ης Δεκεμβρίου άφησε με δηλώσεις του ο Jimmy Page. Μακάρι να είχαμε την ευκαιρία να τους δούμε.

Nightwish - Meadows Of Heaven

Τελείως διαφορετική η φυσιογνωμία των Nightwish μετά την αποχώρηση της Tarja Turunen. Έχασαν σίγουρα ένα σπουδαίο κρίκο της αλυσσίδας που καθόριζε τον ήχο τους . Το Meadows Of Heaven είναι πάντως μια από τις καλές στιγμές του Dark Passion Play
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I close my eyes
The lantern dies
The scent of awakening
Wildhoney and dew

Childhood games
Woods and lakes
Streams of silver
Toys of olden days

Meadows of heaven

The flowers of wonder
And the hidden treasures
In the meadow of life
My acre of heaven

A 5-year-old winterheart
In a place called home
Sailing the waves of past

Meadows of heaven

Rocking chair without a dreamer
A wooden swing without laughter
Sandbox without toy soldiers
Yuletide without the Flight

Dreambound for life

Flowers wither, treasures stay hidden
Until I see the first star of fall

I fall asleep
And see it all:
Mother's care
And color of the kites

Meadows of heaven

Jo Stafford - Begin the Beguine

Μια γυναίκα με πολύ σπουδαία φωνή γιορτάζει σήμερα τα 89α γενέθλιά της. Η Jo Stafford που εδώ τραγουδά το κλασσικό Begin the Beguine του Cole Porter από το musical "Jubilee" γεννήθηκε στις 12 Νοεμβρίου του 1917.
=====****=====
When they begin the beguine
It brings back the sound of music so tender,
It brings back a night of tropical splendour,
It brings back a memory evergreen.

I’m with you once more under the stars,
And down by the shore an orchestra’s playing
And even the palms seem to be swaying
When they begin the beguine.

To live it again is past all endeavour,
Except when that tune clutches my heart,
And there we are, swearing to love forever,
And promising never, never to part.

What moments divine, what rapture serene,
Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted,
And now when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted,
I know but too well what they mean;

So don’t let them begin the beguine
Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember;
Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember
When they begin the beguine.

Oh yes, let them begin the beguine, make them play
Till the stars that were there before return above you,
Till you whisper to me once more,
"Darling, I love you!"
And we suddenly know, what heaven we’re in,
When they begin the beguine

Seether - Fake It

Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces ονομάζεται το νέο cd των Seether απ' όπου και το single "Fake It".

Whose to know if your soul will fade at all
The one you sold to fool the world
You lose your self-esteem along the way
Good god, you're coming up with reasons
Good god, you're dragging it out
Good god, it's the changing of the seasons
It feels so great, so follow me down

Fake it if your out of direction
Fake it if you don't belong
Fake it if you feel like infection
Whoa, your such a fucking hypocrite

You should know that the lies won't hide your flaws
No sense in hiding all of yours
You gave up on your dreams along the way
Good god, you're coming up with reasons
Good god, you're dragging it out
Good god, it's the changing of the seasons
It feels so great, so follow me down and just...

Fake it if your out of direction
Fake it if you don't belong
Fake it if you feel like infection
Whoa, your such a fucking hypocrite

I can fake with the best of anyone
I can fake with the best of them all
I can fake it with the best of anyone
I can fake it all

Whose to know if your soul will fade at all
The one you sold to fool the world
You lose your self-esteem along the way
Good god, you're coming up with reasons
Good god, you're dragging it out
Good god, it's the changing of the seasons
It feels so great, so follow me down and just...

Fake it if your out of direction
Fake it if you don't belong
Fake it if you feel like infection
Whoa, your such a fucking hypocrite

==========

Wakin' up on monday morning
Sunday'd been and gone
Reachin' out for you
But I was alone
Now I sit at the breakfast table
Table's set for two
Been the same thing ev'ry mornin'
Silly things I do
Ooh, don't know what to do about you
I'll never give the way you gave
Ooh, now should I try to find you
Keep playin' ev'ry song you played me
Feel like breakin' up again
It's a thing I gotta live with
Take it on my own
I'm waitin' till it's over
Then again I never know
If I'd only seen you goin'
Walkin' out the door
But I had no way of knowin'
Can't take it no more
Ooh, don't know what to do about you
I'll never give the way you gave
Ooh, now should I try to find you
Keep playin' ev'ry song you played me
Feel like breakin' up again

Foo Fighters - The Pretender

Πολύ μεγάλη επιτυχία και όχι άδικα κάνουν οι Foo Fighters με το Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace. Το cd με την πρώτη εβδομάδα κυκλοφορίας του έφτασε στο Νο1 του βρεττανικού πίνακα επιτυχιών. Το The Pretender είναι το 1ο single του cd.
*********
Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began

Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones go marching in...again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are at the ready
Are you ready?
I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole...defense

Spinning infinity, boy
The wheel is spinning me
It's never-ending, never-ending
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

In time our soul untold
I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We're temporary, temporary
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

U.D.O - Tears of a Clown

Από το καινούριο LP του U.D.O. Mastercutor

+++++U.D.O.+++++

All his life he did his best for all
And the crown of laughter hanging low
The spotlight in the ring
The choruses that sing
The paint and masquerade was just a show

The clown -- the clown
Happiness around
Just a soul lonely in the crowd
The clown -- the clown
His heart is all alone
No one wants the tears of a clown

The living of the glory and applause
The circus tent, the only home he knows
The cover-up is bold,
The mask becoming cold
It's easier to let the eyelids close

The final curtain falls for all to see
The final score, the circus melody
His star that shone so bright,
Gave comfort in the night
The light that always held him set him free

BB King (with John Mayer) - Hummingbird

BB King - Humming...

Άκουσα μετά από πάρα πολύ καιρό μια άλλη υπέροχη εκτέλεση του Hummingbird, που μπορείτε να βρείτε εδώ, με την ασύγκριτη φωνή του Chris Farlowe που υπήρχε στο album του Jimmy Page, Outrider (1988).

ΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗΗ

Sometimes I get impatient
but she cools me without words
and she comes so sweet and so plain
my hummingbird and have you heard
that I thought my life had ended
but I find that it´s just begun
cause she gets me where I live
I´ll give all I have to give
I´m talking about that hummingbird
oh she´s little and she loves me
too much for words to say
when I see her in the morning sleeping
she´s little and she loves me
to my lucky day
hummingbird don´t fly away
When I´m felling wild and lonesome
she knows the words to say
and she gives me a little understanding
in her special way
and I just have to say
in my life I loved a woman
because she´s more than I deserve
and she gets me where I live
I´ll give all I have to give
I´m talking about that hummingbird
oh she´s little and she loves me
too much for words to say
when I see her in the morning sleeping
she´s little and she loves me
to my lucky day

11 χρόνια συμπληρώνονται σήμερα από την αναχώρηση της Eva Cassidy για Χρυσές Πεδιάδες, στις 2 Νοεμβρίου 1996 σε ηλικία μόλις 33 ετών. Στη διασκευή του Fields Of Gold μας έδωσε ένα υπέροχο δείγμα του σπουδαίου ταλέντου της.

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold

So she took her love for to gaze awhile
Among the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
And you can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold

I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We will walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold

I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We will walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
As you lie in fields of gold

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
