Want her, have her
Two years have gone now
But I can't relate
To the never ending
Games that you play
As desire passes through
then you're open
To the truth
I hope you understand
And your love
Is standing next to me
Is standing next to me

The one you fell for
makes it seem juvenile
And you'll laugh
At yourself
Again and again
And we'll drink
To the thought
She'll remember you
Maybe tomorrow

And your love
Is standing next to me
Is standing next to me
And your love
Is standing next to me
Is standing next to me
Is standing next to me
Is standing next to me

Want her, have her
Two years have gone now
But I can't relate
To the never ending
Games that you play
As desire passes through
Then you're open
To the truth
I hope you understand

And your love
Is standing next to me
Is standing next to me
Is standing next to me
Is standing next to me

Dani Wilde - In the Mood

Δεν είναι πολλές οι γυναίκες που ασχολούνται με τα blues όμως η Dani Wilde είναι ανάμεσα σε αυτές και τα καταφάρνει πάρα πολύ καλά. Η διασκευή του In the Mood βρίσκεται στο πρώτο άλμπουμ της Heal My Blues. Περισσότερα στοιχεία εδώ.


I'm in the mood baby, I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood baby, I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood, baby, I'm in the mood for love

I said night time is the right time, to be with the one you love
You know when night come baby, God know, you're so far away
I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood baby, I'm in the mood for love
I'm in the mood, in the mood, baby, in the mood for love

I said yes, my mama told me, to leave that girl alone
But my mama didn't know, God know, girl was puttin' down
I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood baby, in the mood for love
I'm in the mood, I'm in the mood, baby, in the mood for love

Thanassis Papapolitis - Live Forever (remix)

Sounds from Norway

Midnight Choir / Mercy Of Maria



As I drink too much
As I scream out of lust
At the moon for someone to touch me

As I fail to please
What the moon won`t ease
I can`t sit still from running wild

As I wipe my past
For something good to last
As demons are crowling under my skin

As I walk away
There`s nothing to do but pray
That Maria will take me in her arms

At the mercy of Maria
Will I lay my aching head
At the mercy of Maria
Will I find my resting place

At the mercy of Maria
Will I lay my aching head
At the mercy of Maria
Will I find my resting place

Midnight Choir - Jeff Bridges

Nothing's cookin' but the rain
The rain that's pouring down
I can tell you when the silence came
But now it's hanging to the ground
All slow motion and hazy here
Inside this room of mine
If the morning don't disappear
Faith will take me down the line

I wish I was Jeff Bridges
Moving down the highway
With the wind blowing through my hair

If you're getting tired of faking it
Why don't you do go fuck someone else?
If you're getting tired of losin' it
Don't ask me to come and help
I believe that we can all escape
I believe the light will shine

I wish I was Jeff Bridges
Moving down the highway
With the wind blowing through my hair

All I would ask of you
Remember me for what I've done
And not for what I didn't do
And not for what I didn't do

I wish I was Jeff Bridges
Moving down the highway
With the wind blowing through my hair

I wish I was Jeff Bridges
Moving down the highway
On a road that's taking me somewhere
Somewhere...........

Paal Flaata - Don't You Walk Away




Paal Flaata - Wish I Was (Mickey Newbury cover)



Oh I wish I was a willow tree
Leanin' on a lazy breeze
Movin' like a midnight train
Through rainy Georgia

Wish I was a grain of sand
Playin' in a babys hands
Fallin' like a diamond chain
Into the ocean

Oh a willow tree is strong enough to bend
Never like the oak that lives in fear of the wind
A grain of sand is all I ever wanted to be
Lay me down let the water
Wash right over me wash over me

Oh I wish I was an old guitar
Sittin' in a beat-up car
Hittin' every two-bit bar
From here to Texas

Then I wouldn't be ashamed
To look up my old friends
And they would be so proud
To see me strung up again

The 3rd and the Mortal - Why So Lonely



Why so lonely
Here you may rest
Lay your head down at my chest

Darkened days brighten
No more to frighten
Will you be mine
Until the end of time

Why so lonely
I'll give you shelter
Comfort you, carry you
through our lives

Darkened days brighten
No more to frighten
Will you be mine
Until the end of time

Why so lonely, I'll be the one
you always can turn to
I am yours

For as long as you want to
Lend me your heart
I will shelter it
Until the end of time

The 3rd & The Mortal - A Touch Of...


Kari Rueslåtten - My Lover



My lover always meets me with a smile
My lover always kind always patient
My lover like honey and milk
My lover on a cold November morning

But on the former Sunday I gave him in
And on the former Sunday he went away

All the grief that I have caused is
nothing now compared to this
All the grief that I have given him
is nothing now compared to this

And I can see him as he lies there
And I can see him in his grave

My lover on a bed in the evening mist
tender and pure in his last moment
My lover on a bed spreads his beautiful hair
out on the pillow out on me

Storm - Lokk (Calling)


Eg veit eit sted oppe i mellan åsen
Kor måsene mjuk og tre å kaster skugge
Eg veit ein gut, den stautaste tå alle
Auge ljose i mørkret, "Vil du staden sjå?"

Eg ventar til dagen er omme før eg til staden fer
Set meg ned på hella tru om han kjem?
Eg vert so varm, kjenner kor hjartet banker
Kom, kom hit hjå meg, ta meg i den favn

[Calling (translation)]

I know a place up in between the hills
Where the gulls cry and the trees cast shadows
I know a boy, the kindest of them all
Eyes shining in the darkness, "Do you want to see the town?"

Theatre of Tragedy - Image

You act a pansy, pushover
Do live your fancy, go lower
Who is that, someone says your name
You seem chancy, moreover
The call is mine
I'm gonna get you up
I'm gonna get on top
The call is mine
On the skew, you're dancing all over
You are the anti-fashion statement
In a blue suit, and orange pullover
You look like my old dog Rover
I'm gonna get you up
I'm gonna get on top
The call is mine

Leaves' Eyes - For Amelie



Why don't you feel me?
Why can't I hold your hand?
Never said that you'd leave me
And I know you are somewhere

I held you up
Every time you were down
Your crying stopped
When I was around.. but..

Why don't you love me?
Enough to stay with me
Now tell me truly
Was it there in your heart too?
All that I'm left with
Is a dream of me and you

I held you up
Every time you were down
Your crying stopped
When I was around.. but..

You filled my soul
With your beauty and with hope
We're different although
We were just like water in sand

Why don't you feel me?
Why can't I hold your hand
You never said that you'd leave me
And I know you are somewhere

I held you up
Every time you were down
Your crying stopped
When I was around

I held you close
When you fell to the ground
And now you've torn all my hopes apart
You could have said good-bye

Tonight, there's gonna be a fight
So if you need a place to go
Got a two roof slum
A magnum 7 gun
And the cops don't never show

So come right in
Cuz everybody sins
Welcome to the scene of the crime
You want it, believe it, you got it if you need it
The devil is a friend of mine

Well if you think it's crazy, you ain't seen a thing
Just wait untill we're goin down in flames

Chrous
We are, we are the saints
We signed our life away
Doesn't matter what you think
We're gonna do it anyway
We are, we are the saints
One day you will confess
And pray to the saints of Los Angeles

Red line, tripping on a land mine
Sippin at the Troubadour
Girls passed out, naked in the back lounge
Everybody's goin to score

She's all jacked up, she's down on her luck
You wan't it, you need it the devil's gonna feed it
Don't cha say it's crazy, you don't know a thing
Just wait untill we're going down in flames

We are, we are the saints
We signed our life away
Doesn't matter what you think
We're gonna do it anyway
We are, we are the saints
One day you will confess
And pray to the saints of Los Angeles

Solo

Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up

We are, we are the saints
We signed our life away
Doesn't matter what you think
We're gonna do it anyway
We are, we are the saints
One day you will confess
And pray to the saints of Los Angeles

We are, we are the saints
We signed our life away
Doesn't matter what you think
We're gonna do it anyway
We are, we are the saints
One day you will confess
And pray to the saints of Los Angeles

Martha Wainwright - Bleeding All Over You

(acoustic version)

Martha Wainwright - Bleeding all over you- Acoustic session
Uploaded by Cooperative-Music

There are days
When the cage
Doesn't seem
To open
Very wide at all
There are others
That would shock
The most
Indiscriminate
Lovers of all

My heart
Was made
For bleeding
All over you

You got
A girlfriend
And I can only
Talk about her
For so very long
Then my mind turns
Into my heart
And whispers
Into that dark cave
That I've been wrong

My heart was made
For bleeding
All over you
And I know
You're married
But I've got
Feelings too
And I still
Love you

You moved up North
You've got a farmhouse
There's cowshit
In your brain
And love in your heart
I'm in the city
And I'm trapped
Between two buildings
Aand having to start
At the start

You've got a daughter
Now you're a father
You have your pack
And they are wild

My heart was made
For bleeding
All over you
And I know
You're married
But I've got
Feelings too
And I still
Love you
I still love you

Na, na, na
Na, na, na

I've got
Feelings too
And I still
Love you
Yes
I still love you

Martha Wainwright - So Many Friends


And the children's eyes
They turn as I walk away
I am becoming a prey (?)
And the firelight
It burns in your eyes
There are times you despise me
You criticize me

I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories

I can change the colours of the night
But the hum & the drum they stay the same
When you're tapping the same vein
And I have noticed lately
That the time that you took
To look at my face
Is gone without a trace
Oh, you despise me

I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories
And I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories

Over the years things disappear
But once in a while you call my name
In you, you've got the lovin' touch
And I live & breathe for the rush
Oh when we touch there's a rush
When we touch...

I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories
And I have lost so many friends
And I have gained so many memories

Martha Wainwright - See Emily Play


Emily tries but misunderstands
She's often inclined to borrow somebody's dreams
Till tomorrow

There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for May
See Emily play

Soon after dark Emily cries
Gazing through trees in sorrow hardly a sound
Till tomorrow

There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for May
See Emily play
See Emily play
See Emily play
Emily play, Emily

Put on a gown that touches the ground
Float on a river forever and ever, Emily

There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for May
See Emily play
Free games for May
See Emily play
Free games for May
See Emily play

im amazed at the evoltion
im amazed at the lack of faith
im amazed at love we are rejected
im amazed that we accepted this place
like the middle of the earth and the middle of the ages
like a river i get disrupted

im amazed

im amaaaaaaaaaazed......

Opeth - Porcelain Heart

Μετά από 3 χρόνια επιστρέφουν οι Opeth με το Watershed που είναι το 9ο στούντιο άλμπουμ τους. Πρώτο σινγκλ το Porcelain Heart

I, lost all I had (one April day),
I, turned to my friends (nothing to see),
I, wrote down a name (and read it twice),
I, wallow in shame.

I, said that I love (eternal skis),
I, cling to my past (like childish dreams)
I, promised to stay (and dwell my grief)
I, went far away.

I see blood spilled 'neath my feet,
Lead me through wastelands of deceit,
Rest your head now, don't you cry,
Don't ever ask the reason why

Kept inside our idle race
Grow seven idols, false embrace
Rest your head now don't you cry
Don't ever ask the reasons why.

I am the one
Camouflage and guns
Risk my life
To keep my people from harm

Authority
Vested in me
I sacrifice
With my brothers in arms

Trough this doorway
What's on the other side
Never knowing
Exactly what I'll find
Locked and loaded
Voices screaming
Let's go!
Come on do it!
Here we go

Take a life
That others may live
Oh that's just the way it goes
It's playng over and over in my head
Where it'll end
Nobody knows

Take a life
That others may live
Oh that's just the way it goes
It's playng over and over in my head
Where it'll end
Nobody knows

Stay the course
Reasonable force
I believe I serve a greater good

Smoke and dust
Enemies are crushed
Nothing left
Where a man once stood

Trough this doorway
What's on the other side
Never knowing
Exactly what I'll find
Locked and loaded
Voices screaming
Let's go
But I'm just doing what I'm told

Take a life
That others may live
Oh that's just the way it goes
Shut my eyes
It hammers in my head
Where it'll end
Nobody knows

Take this life
That ten other may live
Oh that's just the way it goes
It's playing over and over in my head
Where it begins
And where it'll end
Nobody knows

Bang bang it hammers in my head
Bang bang it hammers in my head
Bang bang it hammers in my head
In my head
In my head

Yeah though I walk to the through the valley of the
shadow of death , I will fear no evil:
for Thou art with me

Locked and loaded
Gonna find my truth
Now I'm busting trough
All hell breaks loose

And you can all hide behind your desks now
And you can cry 'teacher come help me!'
Through you all
My aim is true

Ray Charles - In The Evening




Ray Charles - Let The Good Times Roll



Hey everybody,
Let's have some fun
You only live but once
And when you're dead you're done

So let the good times roll,
I said let the good times roll,
I don't care if you're young or old,
You oughtta get together and let the good times roll

Don't sit there mumbling
Talkin' trash
If you want to have a ball,
You got to go out and spend some cash

And let the good times roll now,
I'm talkin' `bout the good times,
Well it makes no difference whether you're young or old,
All you got to do is get together and let the good times roll

Hey y'all tell everybody, Ray Charles in town,
I got a dollar and a quarter and I'm just ringing the clock,
But don't let no female, play me cheap,
I got fifty cents more than I'm gonna keep.

So let the good times roll now,
I tell y'all I'm gonna let the good times roll now,
Well it don't make no difference if you're young or old,
All you got to do is get together and let the good times roll

Hey no matter whether, rainy weather,
If you want to have a ball, you got to get yourself together,
Oh, get yourself under control, woah, and let the good times roll.

Ray Charles - Georgia on my Mind



Georgia, Georgia, the whole day through
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
Talkin' 'bout Georgia
I'm in Georgia
A song of you
Comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines
Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you
Georgia, sweet Georgia, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song

Ray Charles - Song for you



I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my life in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and I'm singin' this song for you

I know your image of me is what I hope to be, baby
I've treated you unkindly but girl can't you see
There's no one more important to me
So darling can't you please see through me
'cause we're alone now and I'm singin' my song for you

You taught me precious secrets of the truth, withholdin' nothin'
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better so if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love's in there hiding

I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for my life, 'cause you're a friend of mine
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singin' my song for you

I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I've loved you for my life, yes, you're a friend of mine
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singin' my song for you, yes
We were alone and I was singin' this song for you, baby
We were alone and I was singin' my song,
Singin' my song, singin' my song, singin' my song
Singin' my song

Weezer - Pork and Beans

To Pork and Beans είναι το 1o single από το νέο cd των Weezer : Weezer (The Red Album)

They say
I need some Rogaine
To put in my hair
Work it out at the gym
To fit my underwear
Oakley makes the shades
That transform a tool
You'd hate
Ffor the kids to think
That you lost your cool

I'mma do the things
That I wanna do
I ain't got a thing
To prove to you
I'll eat my candy
With the pork and beans
Excuse my manners
If I make a scene
I ain't gonna wear
The clothes that you like
I'm finally dandy
With the me inside
One look in the mirror
And I'm tickled pink
I don't give a hoot
About what you think

Everyone likes to dance
To a happy song
(Hey, hey)
With a catchy chorus and beat
So they can sing along
(Hey, hey)
Timbaland knows the way
To reach the top of the charts
Maybe if I work with him
I can perfect the art

I'mma do the things
That I wanna do
I ain't got a thing
To prove to you
I'll eat my candy
With the pork and beans
Excuse my manners
If I make a scene
I ain't gonna wear
The clothes that you like
I'm finally dandy
With the me inside
One look in the mirror
And I'm tickled pink
I don't give a hoot
About what you think

No I don't care
I don't care

I'mma do the things
That I wanna do
I ain't got a thing
To prove to you
I'll eat my candy
With the pork and beans
Excuse my manners
If I make a scene
I ain't gonna wear
The clothes that you like
I'm finally dandy
With the me inside
One look in the mirror
And I'm tickled pink
I don't give a hoot
About what you think
Totally different?

Sometimes I believe that we're already dead
Each day on the T.V. our last rights are read
Some fair weather oil tanker bleeding its' load
Powder keg powder plant ripe to explode.

Mister Prime Minister hear what I say,
Please Mister President listen I pray.
You have the influence and you have the power
To turn back the clocks on mankind's final hour.

When death is the helmsman who steers "Jonah's Ark"
Tomorrows an iceberg that lurks in the dark.
The band plays our song... it's the Funeral March.

The Confusions - The Perfect Plan

Από το καινούριο άλμπουμ των Σουηδών The Confusions πού έχει τίτλο The Story Behind the Story

I had a perfect plan
I couldn't see it through
It was a perfect plan
But I was scared to fail
Had a perfect plan
But it went wrong

It's not the end of the world
Not even close
I am paralyzed
If you would understand
And tell me no
I would fall apart
So once again
I'll be the clown
Loud as hell
No one will know
That I am here
I'll disappear

I had a perfect plan
I couldn't see it through
It was a perfect plan
But I was scared to fail
Had a perfect plan
But it went wrong

I had a perfect plan
I couldn't see it through
It was a perfect plan
But I was scared to fail
Had a perfect plan
But it went wrong

Bo Diddley

Λίγους μήνες πριν συμπληρώσει τα 80 του χρόνια μας αποχαιρέτησε χθες ο Bo Diddley αφήνοντας ανεξίτηλη τη σφραγίδα του ανοίγοντας καινούριους δρόμους στο σύγχρονο Blues και Rock

Bo Diddley - Bo Diddley


Bo diddley bought his babe a diamond ring,
If that diamond ring dont shine,
He gonna take it to a private eye,
If that private eye cant see
Hed better not take the ring from me.

Bo diddley caught a nanny goat,
To make his pretty baby a sunday coat,
Bo diddley caught a bear cat,
To make his pretty baby a sunday hat.

Mojo come to my house, ya black cat bone,
Take my baby away from home,
Ugly ole mojo, where ya bin,
Up your house, and gone again.

Bo diddley, bo diddley have you heard?
My pretty baby said she wasnt for it.


Bo Diddley - You Can't Judge A Book By It's Cover


You can't judge an apple by looking at a tree
You can't judge honey by looking at the bee
You can't judge a daughter by looking at the mother
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh can't you see, oh you misjudge me
I look like a farmer, but I'm a lover
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh come on in closer baby,
hear what else I gotta say!
You got your radio turned down too low
Turn it up!
You can't judge sugar by looking at the cane
You can't judge a woman by looking at her man
You can't judge a sister by looking at her brother
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh can't you see, oh you misjudge me
I look like a farmer, but I'm a Lover
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
You can't judge a fish by lookin' in the pond
You can't judge right from looking at the wrong
You can't judge one by looking at the other
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh can't you see, oh you misjudge me
I look like a farmer, but I'm a lover
You can't judge a book by looking at the cover


Bo Diddley - Who Do You Love


I walk 47 miles of barbed wire,
I use a cobra-snake for a necktie,
I got a brand new house on the roadside,
Made from rattlesnake hide,
I got a brand new chimney made on top,
Made out of a human skull,
Now come on take a walk with me, Arlene,
And tell me, who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Tombstone hand and a graveyard mine,
Just 22 and I don't mind dying.
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
I rode around the town, use a rattlesnake whip,
Take it easy Arlene, don't give me no lip,
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Night was dark, but the sky was blue,
Down the alley, the ice-wagon flew,
Heard a bump, and somebody screamed,
You should have heard just what I seen.
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Arlene took me by my hand,
And she said ooowee Bo, you know I understand.
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Bo Diddley - I'm a man


Now when I was a little boy,
At the age of five,
I had somethin' in my pocket,
Keep a lot of folks alive.

Now I'm a man,
Made twenty-one,
You know baby,
We can have a lot of fun.

I'm a man,
I spell m-a-n...man.

All you pretty women,
Stand in line,
I can make love to you baby,
In an hour's time.

I'm a man,
I spell m-a-n...man.

I goin' back down,
To kansas to
Bring back the second cousin,
Little john the conqueroo.

I'm a man,
I spell m-a-n...man.

The line I shoot,
Will never miss,
The way I make love to 'em,
They can't resist.

I'm a man,
I spell m-a-n...man.

Bo Diddley - Mona

Mona, I need you
Mona, ooo-ooo, Mona
Yeah! Yeah-yeah-yeah!
Mona
Ooh-ooo-ooo, Mona

Tell ya Mona, what I wanna do
Get-a my house a-next door to you
Can I see you sometime?
A-we could go kissin' through the blind

Listen to my heart go bumpbity-bump
I'll lead you baby, that's no lie
Without your love I will surely die

Hey-ay, Mona

Hey! Whoa-oh, whoa-ooh, Mona
Hey-aay! Mona

(Guitar)

Ooh-ooh, Mona

Hey little baby, that's no lie
Without your love I will surely die.

Room Eleven - Hey Hey Hey

Μας φέρνουν το καλοκαίρι οι Room Eleven με το Hey Hey Hey από το ολόφρεσκο Mmm...Gumbo?

***********
Hey Hey Hey
You're on a holiday
And you don't hear
this song on repeat
Hey hey hey
You don't have to stay
What ever you want
what ever you need

I wonder how many fingers
Filthy from browsing through
postcards with views
Have touched the sugar cube
I put in my mouth
To sweeten things up

Everybody is looking down
On miniatures of important statues
Comparing them at every boutique
They're cheaper over there
But those were bigger
And there's no room in my suitcase

Hey Hey Hey
You're on a holiday
And you don't hear
this song on repeat
Hey hey hey
You don't have to stay
What ever you want
what ever you need

Oh the air is too humid
The food is shitty
Te beds are too hard
It's far away from the beach
The only thing around
the corner is the ATM
So we spend our money
at the hotel bar

Hey Hey Hey
You're on a holiday
And you don't hear
this song on repeat
Hey hey hey
You don't have to stay
What ever you want
what ever you need

Boring, ugly, hot, shitty
the weather's even worse
Smelly, rotten, old, dirty
they stole my purse
Boring, ugly, hot, shitty
the weather's even worse
Smelly, rotten, old, dirty
they stole my purse

We didn't come here to be satisfied
We didn't come here to be satisfied
We didn't come here to be satisfied
No... that's pretty difficult

Hey Hey Hey
You're on a holiday
And you don't hear
this song on repeat
Hey hey hey
You don't have to stay
What ever you want
what ever you need
