Tori Amos Abnormally Attracted To Sin (interview) / Welcome To England

Για το καινούριο της άλμπουμ Abnormally Attracted to Sin μιλά η Tori Amos:



Πρώτο σινγκλ το

Welcome To England




"Do a dance for me."
Baby it is late still you pour me
a tall one...
"Go on, let the liquid take off what you're on.
You've been down before..."
Boy, not like this.
I'm in Quicksand I am sinking fast
"perfect," he laughed, "cause your other half has
got himself a Devil's access-- Welcome to England,"
he said, "Welcome to my world. You better bring your own sun
sweet girl. You gotta bring your own sun now don't you forget --
you bring your own sun, just enough for everyone."

Heels on. Go on.
Bang a Tango but do not get tangled
Who can stay strong? when they only give us lies to lean on
When your heart explodes is it deathly cold?
You must let the colors violate the
Blackness
There is a magic world parallel
so leave your daily
hell-- "Welcome to England,"
he said, "Welcome to my world..."
It's not a question if I can
Fight by your side and withstand
Anything but,
I forgot that you said, "Girl if you come...
you better bring your sun.
Sweet girl, you gotta bring your sun
Now don't you forget you bring your sun--
Just enough for
everyone
for everyone
"Welcome to England"
welcome to England

AC/DC (+The Answer) - Live In Athens ( Rock 'n' Roll Train / Back In Black)

Rock 'n' Roll Train


Back In Black


Μια αξέχαστη βραδιά για τις πάνω από 50 χιλιάδες κόσμου που βρέθηκαν στο Ολυμπιακό Στάδιο το βράδυ της Πέμπτης πρόσφεραν οι για πάρα πολλά χρόνια αναμενόμενοι Αυστραλοί.
Οι AC/DC ήλθαν μετά από πολλά χρόνια αναμονής, όμως η συναυλία τους στην Αθήνα όχι μόνο δε θα οδηγήσει στην απομυθοποίηση τους, αλλά θα γιγαντώσει ακόμα πιο πολύ το μύθο τους στην πατρίδα μας. Κάτι παρόμοιο τηρουμένων των αναλογιών πέτυχαν και οι Ιρλανδοί The Answer,που ανοίγουν τις συναυλίες των AC/DC στην Black Ice World Tour και παρά τη συντριπτική διαφορά του όγκου του ήχου σε σχέση με τους headliners δικαίωσαν απόλυτα το πολύ καλό όνομα που έχουν δημιουργήσει.

The Answer - Preachin'





Μισή ώρα πήρε στους τεχνικούς για να ετοιμάσουν τις καινούριες ράγες που έφεραν το Rock N' Roll Train των AC/DC στη φλεγόμενη σκηνή του ΟΑΚΑ. Για πάνω από δυο ώρες ξεδίπλωσαν ένα αντιπροσωπευτικότατο Best of διανθισμένο με πέντε τραγούδια από το πρόσφατο Black Ice . Φυσικά δεν απουσίαζε το μειονέκτημα των μεγάλων συναυλιών που είναι η απουσία αυθορμητισμού, όμως αυτό είναι το τίμημα για το στήσιμο ενός μεγάλου show που στη συγκεκριμένη περίπτωση ήταν άψογο. Οι ίδιοι με την ενέργειά τους που κατάφεραν να μεταφέρουν και στο κοινό φρόντισαν να εξουδετερώσουν αυτό το μειονέκτημα. Όσοι τους είδαν είναι πια βέβαιοι για την ορθότητα του ισχυρισμού ότι οφείλουν πάρα πολύ μεγάλο μέρος της επιτυχίας τους στις ζωντανές εμφανίσεις. Ούτε η "τεράστια" Rosie που καβάλησε το τραίνο στη σκηνή ούτε κανένα άλλο από τα σκηνοθετικά ευρήματα δε μπόρεσε να επισκιάσει τους μουσικούς που ήταν πάνω στη σκηνή και τη μουσική τους. Το κοινό ακολουθούσε τους καταιγιστικούς ρυθμούς από την αρχή μέχρι την ώρα που αντήχησαν τα κανόνια του αποχαιρετισμού.

Τα κομμάτια της συναυλίας:

1. Rock 'n' Roll Train
2. Hell Ain't A Bad Place To Be
3. Back In Black
4. Big Jack
5. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
6. Shot Down in Flames
7. Thunderstruck
8. Black Ice
9. The Jack
10. Hells Bells
11. Shoot To Thrill
12. War Machine
13. Dog Eat Dog
14. Anything Goes
15. You Shook Me All Night Long
16. T.N.T.
17. Whole Lotta Rosie
18. Let There Be Rock
19. Highway To Hell
20. For Those About To Rock (We Salute You)

Φέτος είναι μια χρονιά που αρκετά ονόματα θα περάσουν από την Ελλάδα χάρι στην επιτυχία που σημείωσαν τα τελευταία χρόνια τα συναυλιακά εγχειρήματα. Η συναυλία των AC/DC στο Ολυμπιακό στάδιο θα είναι σίγουρα από τους παράγοντες που θα κάνουν ακόμα πιο πυκνές τις επισκέψεις μεγάλων ονομάτων στη χώρα μας.

-----------

This is the new world order
Played upon our fears
Spreading accusations
Of radical affairs

The brotherhood of wisdom
Strength and dignity
Its rituals and secrets
Remain a mystery

Beneath the ever watchful eye
The angels of the temple fly

Turn the key walk, through the gate
The great ascent to reach a higher state
A rite of passage

The final stage, a sacred home
Unlock the door and lay the corner stone
A rite of passage

Men of wealth and power
Influence and fame
Philosphers and leaders
Are members of the trade

Bound by oath and honor
Like the rose and cross
An enigmatic union
Of esoteric thought

Beneath the ever watchful eye
The angels of the temple fly

Turn the key, walk through the gate
The great ascent to reach a higher state
A rite of passage

The final stage, a sacred home
Unlock the door and lay the corner stone
A rite of passage

Turn the key, walk through the gate
The great ascent to reach a higher state
A rite of passage

The seven stars, the rising sun
A perfect world, a new life has begun
A rite of passage

Papa Roach - I Almost Told You That I Loved You



Στις 25 Μαΐου κυκλοφορεί το I Almost Told You That I Loved You, 3ο σινγκλ από το πρόσφατο LP των Papa Roach, Metamorphosis.

You know I love it when your down on your knees
And I'm a junkie for the way that you please
You shut me up when you swallow me down
My back to the wall you're going to town

I almost told you that I loved you
Thank God I didn't cause it would've been a lie
I say the damnedest things, when you're on top of me
I almost told you that I loved you

I hate to say it but it has to be said
You look so fragile as I fuck with your head
I know it shouldn't but it's getting me off
If sex is the drug then what is the cost

I almost told you that I loved you
Thank God I didn't cause it would've been a lie
I say the damnedest things, when you're on top of me
I almost told you that I loved you

I'm not the one that u want
Not the one that you need
My love is like a fucking disease
You can give me your hand
You can make your demands
I'm the hardest mother fucker to please

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I almost told you that I loved you
Thank God I didn't cause it would've been a lie
I say the damnedest things, when you're on top of me
I almost told you that I loved you

[repeat chorus]

Delain - April Rain



Πρώτο σινγκλ από το ομώνυμο δεύτερο άλμπουμ των
Delain, April Rain που κυκλοφορεί από τις 20 Μαρτίου.


How does it feel when all youre counting on is scattering
Every wind that you have sailed upon, a hurricane
Every summer you have seen was filled with april rain
It doesnt get easy, dont you know
Fortune smiles on you
Youre not watching, dig that hole deeper
Fortune smiles on you
Youre not watching, create your own fate
Count your blessings and prepare to change your point of view
All those days that you spend waiting wont come back to you
Take off the glasses that have treated your world black and grey
It doesnt get easy, dont you know
Fortune smiles on you
Youre not watching, dig that hole deeper
Fortune smiles on you
Youre not watching, create your own fate
Keep raining
Cause we are blind, cause we are tired, 'cause we are blind to fortunes guidance now
It keeps raining, cause we are blind, it will keep raining, cause we are tired
It keeps raining, cause we are blind oh, it will keep raining cause we are tired
Fortune smiles on you
Youre not watching, dig that hole deeper
Fortune smiles on you

Iron and Wine - Trapeze Swinger



Συλλογή με ακυκλοφόρητα κομμάτια κυκλοφορούν στις 19 Μαΐου οι Iron & Wine. Θα περιέχει 23 κομμάτια και θα έχει τίτλο Around the Well. Το Trapeze Swinger υπήρχε στο soundtrack της ταινίας In Good Company το προσφέρουν δωρεάν μέσα από την επίσημη σελίδα τους εδώ.

Please, remember me
Happily
By the rosebush laughing
With bruises on my chin
The time when
We counted every black car passing
Your house beneath the hill
And up until
Someone caught us in the kitchen
With maps, a mountain range,
A piggy bank
A vision too removed to mention
But

Please, remember me
Fondly
I heard from someone you're still pretty
And then
They went on to say
That the pearly gates
Had some eloquent graffiti
Like 'We'll meet again'
And 'Fuck the man'
And 'Tell my mother not to worry'
And angels with their gray
Handshakes
Were always done in such a hurry
And

Please, remember me
At Halloween
Making fools of all the neighbors
Our faces painted white
By midnight
We'd forgotten one another
And when the morning came
I was ashamed
Only now it seems so silly
That season left the world
And then returned
And now you're lit up by the city
So

Please, remember me
Mistakenly
In the window of the tallest tower call
Then pass us by
But much too high
To see the empty road at happy hour
Leave and resonate
Just like the gates
Around the holy kingdom
With words like 'Lost and Found' and 'Don't Look Down'
And 'Someone Save Temptation'
And

Please, remember me
As in the dream
We had as rug-burned babies
Among the fallen trees
And fast asleep
Aside the lions and the ladies
That called you what you like
And even might
Give a gift for your behavior
A fleeting chance to see
A trapeze
Swing as high as any savior
But

Please, remember me
My misery
And how it lost me all I wanted
Those dogs that love the rain
And chasing trains
The colored birds above there running
In circles round the well
And where it spells
On the wall behind St. Peter's
So bright with cinder gray
And spray paint
'Who the hell can see forever?'
And

Please, remember me
Seldomly
In the car behind the carnival
My hand between your knees
You turn from me
And said 'The trapeze act was wonderful
But never meant to last'
The clown that passed
Saw me just come up with anger
When it filled with circus dogs
The parking lot
Had an element of danger
So

Please, remember me
Finally
And all my uphill clawing
My dear
But if i make
The pearly gates
Do my best to make a drawing
Of G-d and Lucifer
A boy and girl
An angel kissin on a sinner
A monkey and a man
A marching band
All around the frightened trapeze swingers

Na-na
Na-na-na
Na-na
Na-na...

Apoptygma Berzerk - Asleep or Awake



Από τα καλύτερα κομμάτια του Rocket Science που κυκλοφόρησαν πρόσφατα οι Apoptygma Berzerk. Στο άλμπουμ συμμετέχουν και οι Benji Madden και Amanda Palmer. Το Rocket Science πρόλαβε να κυκλοφορήσει μια εβδομάδα πριν το κλείσιμο της εταιρίας τους (Gun Records).


What's with your head?
Controlled, dumbed down
Since your life began
They play us like fools
We sell out to be in
A "bread and circus" game

They dumbed us down and slowly...

Changed our thoughts
Now we believe in nothing
But never-ending wars
In which we're all gonna lose

What's going on, you're sedated again?
Already wasted half your life
Stone cold hearted and arrogant
They teach "Ignorance is bliss"

They dumbed us down and slowly...

Changed our thoughts
Now we believe in nothing
But never-ending wars
In which we're all gonna lose

Now I lay me down to rest
But I can't get no sleep
It's getting late, you still won't listen
I'd better stay awake

They dumbed us down and slowly...

Changed our thoughts
Now we believe in nothing
But never-ending wars
In which we're all gonna lose (ourselves)

My Dying Bride - The Lies I Sire



Σχεδόν ομώνυμο με τον τίτλο του καινούριου άλμπουμ των
My Dying Bride - For Lies I Sire το The Lies I Sire. Το For Lies I Sire κυκλοφόρησε στις 23 Μαρτίου.

Before it lies
The story of invoking joy
Endless love
Given to me through a dream
A following from above

I couldn't help myself
God walks by my side
Within my limbs burns hate
Believe me how I cry
The tremble of my hands
Blinded by my tears
But I stand heroic
The holy words I heed

With glory and blazing eyes
I rise into bloody skies
Myself a storm, ravaging
The wrath of God, down I bring

With mercenary's smile
I rise up from the shade
As the king of all souls
The pounding of my wings
Tearing through the night
Death's taking his toll

The sear in heat
Burning eyes
Fury and fire
A forest gone
Torn victims
The lies I sire

My work is done and I leave none
The passion in my dying worth

The grief I leave is meaningless
The lies within these ancient words

The Fray - You Found Me





To You Found Me που κυκλοφόρησε το Νοέμβριο του 2008 άνοιξε το δρόμο για την κυκλοφορία του πολύ καλού δεύτερου άλμπουμ των The Fray που έχει τίτλο το όνομά τους (The Fray)


I found God
On the corner of First and Amistad
Where the west
Was all but won
All alone
Smoking his last cigarette
I said, "Where you been?"
He said, "Ask anything".

Where were you
When everything was falling apart?
All my days
Were spent by the telephone
It never rang
And all I needed was a call
It never came
To the corner of First and Amistad

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

In the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing her
The only one who's ever known
Who I am
Who I'm not, who I wanna be
No way to know
How long she will be next to me
[ The Fray Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

Early morning
The city breaks
I've been callin'
For years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
Ya never send me no letters
You got some kinda nerve
Taking all my world

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Where were you? Where were you?
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
Why'd you have to wait?
To find me, to find me

Lacuna Coil - Shallow Life



Το ομώνυμο τραγούδι από το καινούριο άλμπουμ των Lacuna Coil, Shallow Life που κυκλοφόρησε στις 17 Απριλίου.

(I never thought I’d be a soldier
I take my place inside the battle
I’ve come to realize the journey is over
Realize that life is sober)

Everyday I’m like a soldier
Waking up within the battle
And through the haze I live a dream that’s better
Than What I feel inside, diggin’ in me

Suffering darkness in my eyes against the light of Rome
I see the reflection of the ghost that I’ve become
Waiting behind the windows, I resign to be alone
I want to feel alone and lost in this solitude

Shallow life
I’ll stay close to the ground
Shallow life
The walls keep falling down
I close my eyes
I’ll find my way around
In the shallow life

(Welcome to the bottom line)
Suffering darkness in my eyes against the night of Rome
I get confused and all I hear is just myself
I will resign and search for peace of mind, I’m on my own
I need to be alone and lost in this solitude

Shallow life
I’ll stay close to the ground
Shallow life
The walls keep falling down
I close my eyes
I’ll find my way around
In the shallow life

The walls keep falling
Shallow life
I’ll stay close to the ground
Shallow life
The walls keep falling down
I close my eyes
I’ll find my way around
In the shallow life
Shallow life
(Welcome to the bottom line)

Archive - Bullets



Το πρώτο σινγκλ από το Controlling Crowds των Archive που κυκλοφορεί από τις 30 Μαρτίου. Το Controlling Crowds αποτελείται από 3 μέρη ενώ το 4ο μέρος θα βρίσκεται στο επόμενο άλμπουμ τους.


-
Come touch me like Im an ordinary man, have a look in my eyes,
Underneath my skin there is violence, got a gun in its hand,
Ready to make sense of anyone anything.
Black holes living in the side of your face,
Razor wire spinning around your blistering sky, blistering sky,
Bullets are the beauty of the blistering sky,
Bullets are the beauty and I dont know why,
Bullets are the beauty of the blistering sky,
Bullets are the beauty and I dont know why.
Personal responsibility,
Personal response insanity.
Confine me let me be the lesser of a beautiful man,
Without the blood on his hands,
Come and make me a martyr come and break my feeling,
With your violence with the gun to my head,
Ready to take out anyone anywhere.
Black holes living in the side of your face,
Razor wire spinning around your heart,
Blistering sky blistering sky,
Bullets are the beauty of the blistering sky,
Bullets are the beauty and I dont know why,
Bullets are the beauty of the blistering sky,
Bullets are the beauty and I dont know why.
Personal responsibility,
Personal response insanity.

Καλή Πρωτομαγιά

Bob Dylan - I feel a Change Comin' on



Από το καινούριο άλμπουμ του Bob Dylan, Together Through Life που κυκλοφόρησε στις 28 Απριλίου.

Well Im lookin the world over
Lookin far off into the east
And I see my baby comin
shes walkin with the village priest
I feel a change comin' on
and the last part of the days already gone

We got so much in common
We strive for the same old ends
And I just cant wait
Wait for us to become friends
I feel a change comin 'on
And the fourth part of the days already gone

Well life is for love
And they say that love is blind
If you wanna live easy
Baby, pack your clothes with mine
I feel a change comin' on
And the fourth part of the days already gone

Well now whats the use in dreaming
You got better things to do
Dreams never did work for me anyway
Even when they did come true

You are as porous as ever
Baby you can start a fire
I must be losing my mind
Youre the object of my desire
I feel a change comin' on
And the fourth part of the days already gone

Im listening to Billy Joe Shaver
And Im reading James Joyce
Some people they tell me
I got the blood of the land in my voice

Everybody got all the money
Everybody got all the beautiful clothes
Everybody got all the flowers
I dont have one single rose
I feel a change comin' on
And the fourth part of the days already gone

Sinéad O'connor - Only you (The Young Victoria's Soundtrack)



Το ερωτικό θέμα της ταινίας The Young Victoria τραγουδά η Sinéad O'Connor.
Η μουσική του soundtrack ανήκει στον Ilan Eshkeri.

My love
Your love
Has opened up a world I’ve never known
All hope
Was found
A place I never dreamed I would go
Feels like only yesterday I had locked my heart away
Safe behind a castle of stone
Sure I’d always be alone
Only you know how
To hear me through the silence
You reach a part of me that no one else can see
Forever true there’s only me and only you
Only me and you

In your face I trust
With you beside me I am standing strong
One truth
Two hearts
You took my life and made it beautiful
So you dared to let me shine
Even walk a step behind
Willingly you give yourself to me
Knowing who I was born to be
Only you know how
To hear me through the silence
You reach a part of me that no one else can see
Forever true there’s only me
And only you
Only me and you

Only you know how
To hear me through the silence
You reach a part of me that no one else can see
Forever true there’s only me
And only you
Only me and you
